Question / Understanding

In the Examples Programs sections there is a mention that

 @
0>0

will generate one drone only once. I do not understand how that? I think this will generate one drone every 2nd tick

tick 0 @ 0 comment
0 0 0 0 start: since empty, @ will send 1 drone
1 0 0 1 bound station occupied, nothing will be sent, but consumed
2 0 0 0 empty, @ will send 1 drone (same state as tick 0)
3 0 0 1 same as tick 1
...

The following should work to create just one drone:

What am I missing?

Oops! Good catch. That's a mistake in the wiki page, and will be fixed RocketRace (talk) 14:31, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

Ohh, the whole language specification changed (e.g. *pure* stations being allowed everywhere, Zone inference, ...) not sure if I'll change my implementation. But anyway, the language needs versioning and a change log!
