I see what you're saying. Thanks again for the help. Personally I'm trying to go for that City Of Ember challenge so I'm going to build a digital display in my "mayor's" office that will count up to 200, at which point my sealed fort will re-open to the outside world.

Ah ok, that's good. It's even better than atomic clocks! Gotta love dorf fiziks.

I get it now. This really is ingenious once you watch it for a while. Kudos, major kudos for this.

Another question: the click-counter that Kidiri pointed out seems that it would need a whole new structure for each counted unit. How would you string a bunch of them together so that it could count up to say 16-bit numbers?

So I've just noticed something that could prove fatal to this whole set-up: it appears that there is some lag in the clock while the water transfers through the two unattached pumps. It could just be that I don't fully understand the design, but it appears that there would be a significant amount of time loss.
