DOS tutorial just published

[SuncrestReef]

I just published a new tutorial on the Neptune DOS. It's sort of an "everything you ever wanted to know about the DOS" in one place. Take a look:

And it's the latest addition to my series of Apex tutorials:

I saw it and started studying it. Well done. I haven't figured out how to create the tile for the DDR, though.

The tile for the DDR will only show up if the DDR is attached to the DOS and is functional. If you look at the System View and click the DOS to reveal its outputs, does it also show two optical switches as shown in my DOS tutorial? If it does, then the DDR is recognized and you'll find the DDR tile in the Unused Tiles window when you unlock the dashboard.

If the optical switches do not show up in the System View, then it's possible the DDR is defective. I mentioned in the tutorial how the DDR's circuit board can be easily damaged by liquids, and this can cause it not to show up.

Aaah! I think i might be missing a connection. Thanks!
