Guide talk:Teleporter network

I did a very massive update to this guide. I found the old version wasn't clear enough for me to actually implement it, I had to make some rather large developments myself, and the system I created fixed all of the flaws the previous guide writer had mentioned. I've never really contributed here before, and so I tried to follow along with the structure of the guide as it was, but if anyone sees any issues or updates that they think should be done I'd be happy to update it as needed!

Questions
I have a few questions about the teleporter network so I can have some clarification.

My first question is about a tile I can see under the root teleporter. I have no idea of what it is and I'm afraid that if this affects the system and I don't include it then I'll screw something up. Does anybody know what it is? If you know what tile it is can you let me know?

My second question is about the step encoders. In the Teleporter source image files it shows that almost all of the step encoders are wired up differently compared to the detailed image about the step encoders. I'm wondering how I should wire these up, should I do it the way the teleporter source image shows or the way the detailed image on the step encoders show?
