I can't seem to get the wireless transmitters to work?
So I'm trying to get a object detected when it's in the zone of the wireless receiver and no connection seems to get powered when the transmitter is in the zone of the receiver? I made a basic version in a new level with no luck (attached pic) am I doing something wrong?

It's unclear what end result you're trying to accomplish - are you just trying to brodcast a signal when an object enters an area?
Set the trigger zone to look for a tag that you'll put on objects you want to detect. Then wire the output of the trigger zone to whatever you need to happen, and it will fire every time the object comes into the zone. -
If you're only trying to detect that "A is within some zone Z of another object B", then your best option is to put a tag on A and a Trigger Zone gadget on B. Wireless transmitters and receivers are better for just acting like wires that don't need to be connected.
If you're coming from an LBP mindset, you're probably thinking the wireless transmitter and receiver function like the magnetic key and switch- they don't. -
Ahh yes! Thank you! I'll try that out! I think like you said coming from LBP I was thinking of it along the same lines as that, I'll try that in the morning and report back thanks!

And if it helps I'm basically making like a small portal style level with a cube and some portals but I was trying to have the cube be triggered when in the radius of the portal to trigger it to be teleported, not sure how I could keep it's momentum but little steps lol

For Maintaining Velocity, you can use Movement sensors to store your velocity ass a variable when you enter a zone, then teleport you, then reapply your velocity normal to whatever you've just come out of.

Ok I just woke up and I was thinking about what you said as in they only work like wires so all I did was add a power button to the transmitter so now when they come in contact, boom there's a signal to send! Thank you both for all your help! Sorry I didn't reply sooner I forget I wouldn't get notified but thanks!
