I honestly find the PRC more complicated to use as certain functions cannot run more than one at the time etc. like the EQUAL function. In a CC script I can have as many if's and elseif's as I want :p
I'm not sure why I'm worried about doing this; we have opencomputers in the pack I believe ( which should be able to do scripts similar to CC afaik), and I AM a programmer. So wtf is my hold up :p

I only ask because the output i'm using didn't flip off the signal when we hit 75%.
Dunno if its because a) i didn't initialize the state properly, b) I'm using the wrong output, or c) I'm using the wrong mode (which you say isnt the case)

How full is the buffer in your reactor in that screnshot?

You want to place your NOT gate such that when the reactor is between 25% and 75% full, the two signals sent to the RS latch are both off. If you do this, one of two things *should* happen:
- It works just as expected. That is, when the buffer hits 75% , it turns off, and when the buffer hits 25%, it turns back on.
- It doesn't work. In this case, the RS-latch is doing exactly the opposite of what you want it to do- that is, whenever the buffer drops below 25%, it forces the reactor off, and vice versa. To fix this, simply swap the positions of the inputs (or outputs, I'm not sure, although it doesn't really matter) by shift-clicking the latch with a screwdriver. This is what ratchet freak meant by "mirror".
