Is really Map script of 27 slot much better than 3 Map Switch linked ?

26 SLOTS OR NODES MADE OF 3 MAP SWITCH LINKED TO ANOTHER MAP SWITCH

The only difference I have made in this is that it uses the Map switch combination and using the map Switch Mode 3 option

As you can see here the letters are more repeated, and the bigger problem is that there are much more nearby repeated letters, as seen on the blue squares.

I do not know if I am using wrongly the map switch and the randomizers or is that the mapswitch does not work as expected in the same way as the mapscript?

I am asking this because if is true that the map script is much better, then it should be used instead of the Map Switch combination if you are going to use more than 10 input in bomber plus

I have made the comparison as similar as possible using all exactly same settings, values and components, have used the same randomizer, and the only change is that the way the letters are being sent to the bomber plus.

Can the bomber be modified with some additional components that could give better results either in Map switch or Map Script?

Sorry that I do not what is the difference between the 4 available modes of the Map Switch mode differences as seen in the quote below

So I wonder how does the Map Switch works when it is nested and linked together?

so the final question is

Is really Map script of 27 slot much better than 3 Map Switch linked ?

what do you think?

Map Switch mode Specifies the selection method for Source inputs. The first mode (Continuous) represents soft switching where two Sources closest to the Selector value contribute to the output. The three other (Discrete) modes represent hard switching where only one Source contributes to the output. 1 - Continuous mode doesn't round or truncate the Selector value, and the output is produced by linearly interpolating between two contributing Sources. 2 - Discrete: Round mode uses rounding to the nearest integer to determine the Source that will be sent to the output. 3 - Discrete: Floor mode uses rounding to the nearest smaller integer to determine the Source that will be sent to the output. 4 - Discrete: Ceil mode uses rounding to the nearest larger integer to determine the Source that will be sent to the output.

Thanks, but I have already done it, and I can show here that fr om my tests, it does not fix it, maybe you can tell what may be happening and possibly suggest another thing

Sorry I did not explain it before

When I started to make the comparison I already had 4 randomizers ( 1 for each Map switch) and another one apart for the map script of the mega switch, but I was not getting good results, so later I have thought to just use one randomizer so it keeps all the same settings and values and so the comparison can be made correctly although I may have done it wrong, so here below is the original first filter.

Here below is the filter that uses

5 randomizers wh ere each one has different variation value and has also some different shade value between min and max

1 Randomizer for each Map switch and another one apart for the map script of the mega switch


but from the test seen and presets shown, still the megaswitch mapscript is giving better results than the map switch combination and there is much less repeated nearby letters and more variety in the distribution, and I prefer much the map script megaswitch result than the one from the map switch

The filter is made for FF 9

27 Map Script VS 27 Map Switch 3 randomizars.ffxml

This is using the 4 Map Switch ( 3 for the 26 letters and 1 to join the 3) using different variation values as seen in the filter above

I have counted and tested that in this other example NOT at all the 26 letters at least appears once because the A J R S T U V W Y Z are not available in the table as seen in the example above, and in the table and there NOT as much variety as in the above one.

This is preset 3 of the filter that uses the Map Switch mode 3

And if you think that Map Switch mode 2 may solve this, is wrong, because is almost similarly to the above other 2 examples that have many missing letters and have many repeated ones

so then unless there is something wrong in what I have done, and there is something that needs to be fixed, it is clearly that the Megaswitch Mapscript wins for sure in giving the best results
for using and showing all the letters at least once
almost with NO repeated nearby letters either horizontally and even vertically
and giving a great variety that looks good and well done random

Yes, you are right, and I know this, but do not know which one is the one that will select ALL the values as it happens automatically with the map switch by default and not just part of them.

Pleae, do you know why the continous mode 1 does not work as it makes doubles images?

Thanks very much for explaining it, and now thanks I understand it better and is good to know and will try to configure the Map Switch and see how it works, although do not understand why the mode 1 continous fails
