You are a gem for sharing this knowledge! Looking to integrate Node Red and ESP32 puzzles to trigger DMX lights in our puzzle room adventure for the Deaf community :)

One way to save pins on things like the D1 mini is to use the analogue pin and connect the wires via resistors following a (roughly) binary sequence of values with a common resistor in the ground path to form a potential divider. It makes the code significantly more complicated but worth considering if you're short of pins.

Yes, that's right. And you could of course also add a multiplexer as well. For this example I didn't want to introduce any additional unnecessary hardware though!

Thanks for making all these videos it really helps out a lot! Is it possible to make some more videos with node red that are more beginner friendly? Node Red is really awesome but i'm still having a difficult time understanding it. You are also the only person online that explains this well.

Just came across your channel this week and I love all the projects! I'm really interested in making some for an escape room at the camp I own. Does your patreon give access to the code for all the projects, or is it $10 per project? Happy to support, just need to plan out some budgeting! Thank you!

how could this work with NEOPIXEL instead DMX? - I assume it would require an ESP wifi device operating the neopixel. if possible could you send the neopixel sequence or would it be best to call-up a preloaded neopixel sequence on the esp?

Was that the "A most suspicious package" game? I enjoyed that! I've been thinking myself about creating a suitcase-contained puzzle. Was hoping to make it modular, a bit like a real-life version of Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, but not necessarily a bomb. Still tinkering with ideas at the moment...

Playful Technology it was, yes! I was super impressed with that, but could also see many areas for improvement. The main thing was, as you said, you could see all of the tech behind the Perspex, but couldn’t interact with it. A gradual progression down through layers would be an amazing experience. Disable a vibration sensor, then remove a panel, the right wires need splicing together to disable a heartbeat monitor. Then swap some fuses to pop an access panel. Pull out that module and access the next stage. Etc etc Getting excited thinking about it 😂

Ha ha - nice pun! Yeah, I really prefer not to glamourise "bombs", but it's something that players expect... So I think if there is the opportunity to lead them away from the just mindless arbitrary "There's a crazy bomber!" scenarios and into some more interesting narrative, it should definitely be taken :)

If you wanted to, you could call a "heartbeat" function that sent a message from the ESP8266 at regular intervals. If Node-RED didn't receive a message in the last second, say, you could trigger the explosion anyway (though there is a different risk with that that if your WiFi went down for whatever reason, your bomb would just detonate itself!). Instead, it's probably safer to rely on the "manual override" functions which I show later in the code to prevent players from defusing the bomb "the wrong way" ;)

No - I'm a designer and an instructor rather than a prop supplier - I want to give people the knowledge to create their own props! Firstly, if you build it yourself, you can customise both exactly what it looks like and how it behaves, rather than just having a generic off-the-shelf prop like in 100s of other escape rooms. And secondly, if you designed and programmed it yourself, you will be in a much better position to identify and implement any fixes required if something does go wrong in the future, rather than be at the mercy of some 3rd party supplier who may have extortionate (or non-existent!) support :)
