Tri-Sploggle Block
A three-state toggle whose cells also answer a direct click — though a Latch may still seal them.

- Tier block × 21Every T is the same block, and that block’s Tier sets the rune’s strength.
- Signature block × 4Each arm holds a Tier 1+ block other than the Tier block, or stays empty (air or Tier 0). Read by compass direction, the arms spell the rune’s signature.
- Air or a Tier 0 block × 12Leave these as air, or fill them with Tier 0 blocks such as dirt or stone.

How it works
Tri-Sploggle Block forges a designator whose marked blocks remember three shapes and answer one at a time. Right-click a single marked block, and that block steps to its next shape, while the rest of the set stays as it is.
Clicks on these blocks keep working while a Lock or Loggle shares their set. A Tri-Latch Block that is holding shut still seals them. A Latch Block holds these blocks shut.
See Toggles, locks, and phases.

usage-messages | false | When true, chat reports each use of this toggle/lock family rune. |
max-set | 8192 | Max orthogonally connected cells sharing one signature that this rune may wave (hard-capped at 8192). |
