There's a switch module (the L-marked ones) for integers, floats and strings. It would be nice if there was also one for the bus. Right now I'm rolling my own bus-like strings (0x01 separated, since String Find can't detect 0x00) in able to chain larger modules, but busses would be the "natural" data type for this.
In fact I think it wouldn't hurt to have all those basic components for all basic data types.

In my developer toolkit there is switches for some of the data types, there's one for string arrays, integer arrays, area, mem and bitmaps. My method of making the switches doesn't work on the bus data type though because no trigger is sent along with the changes to the bus.
But yeah it would be nice to have an update which gives all the data types the same capability's!
Cheers 😉

Triggers are not sent with the bus itself, but with each of the items carried in the bus. An ugly workaround for sure, & requires extra work. Though I would like to have a bus switch, I would like many many other things added to SM before this. Bus-Switch schematic here.
