Thanks for commenting, Mike!
What you say is totally true and I agree my game doesn’t go exactly as the real world circuits do. The in-game circuits were behaving like you say during making of the game in it’s early stage.
But then I just had to change it so I can come up with enough puzzles that actually make sense. It was like realism vs gameplay. I decided that the circuit just won’t work until all gates are in their places, although I know it’s not exactly true.

The game takes place in Cyberspace. In Cyberspace, events occur logically and mathematically. In Reality (aka, our universe) Mike’s statement is true. However, within the System the game takes place in, (NOT Ping’s System) that System’s universal laws (defined by Matt) define the Chaotic Transient as an Inactive wire’s state. I would just change the name into “Null Transient” or something similar. The color would also be better as black, with the Negative state being replaced by the complimentary of Blue (Orange). On an unrelated subject, a sequal would probably be equally awsome, and I would like a level editor, including Decoders (the opposite of Multiplexers), Transistors (BUF aka NORMAL gates opened/closed by additional currents. These would output the Null Transient when closed), and a Gate Factory (Residing within the level editor, this would allow you to include gates in your levels defined by their truth tables). Also, new varieties of virus would be nice.

I would appreciate an update to the game to cause the logic to be similar to real world digital circuits. The chaotic state resembles the real world indeterminate state. when a gate with multiple inputs has indeterminate inputs, it will sometimes still output a high or low signal instead of being indeterminate itself. For example, if a two input And gate receives one low signal and one indeterminate signal, the output should be low, not indeterminate.
