Buttons

Buttons are the triggers of certain kinds of events in Wonderland. They come in different colours, and the button that is the same colour as a Gate opens it.
==Buttons in the Classic Trilogy==
In the Classic Trilogy of Wonderland, there are three kinds of buttons:
*Square buttons. Once pressed, these buttons open the gate and it will stay open, regardless of the gate's current state.
*Round buttons. They will open the gate when pressed, but will close it again when unpressed.
*Star buttons. Once pressed, they will open the gate for about 5 seconds.
The buttons come in 7 colours: purple, yellow, green, blue, red, indigo, and white. Additionally, there are two special brown buttons that deactivate conveyors. These look the same, but control two separate sets of conveyors.

===Coloured Buttons ===
In Wonderland Adventures, buttons come in five kinds:
*Square buttons. Once pressed, these buttons open the gate and it will stay open, regardless of the gate's current state.
*Round buttons. They will open the gate when pressed, but will close it again when unpressed.
*Star buttons. Once pressed, they will open the gate for about 5 seconds.
*Diamond buttons. When pressed they will toggle the gate's state. These buttons can be pressed any number of times.
*DiamondOnce buttons. When pressed they will toggle the gate's state, but can be pressed only once.
Buttons also come in 14 colours, of which up to 4 can be assigned to one: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, purple, white, rainbow, stone, forest, metal, fire, and mushroom. These colours are numbered 0-13 in the level editor.
====Functions====
Unlike Classic Trilogy, coloured buttons in Wonderland Adventures are not only used to open gates: they can open or close Scritter Cages, change the state of Bridges, and move Transporters.
====SubColours====
Besides the 14 colours available for button systems, each can also be assigned a certain SubColour. SubColours, despite their names, are not actual colours but numerical values from 0 to 4. This feature allows you to construct up to 70 button-powered systems without them being related to each other.
====IDs====
Buttons, when pressed, send a command to activate or deactivate a gate with a certain ID, which is determined by its colour and subcolour. The formula to calculate a gate's colour ID is 500 + Colour × 5 + SubColour. Going by this formula, a yellow gate (colour 2) with subcolour 3 would have the ID 500 + 2 × 5 + 3 = 513, and a stone gate (colour 9) with subcolour 1 would have the ID 500 + 9 × 5 + 1 = 546.
The same formula can be used on buttons to find out the ID that a certain button colour refers to. This allows you to have, for example, an orange button that will activate a gold star.
====ColX2Y Buttons====
ColX2Y buttons are used to change a gate's colour and subcolour. They come in the same types that normal buttons come in: Square, Round, Star, Diamond and DiamondOnce.
====Rotators====
Rotator buttons change the direction of Transporters and Springs. They look like round buttons but function as diamond buttons: they will rotate the transporter or spring and it will remain rotated.
===General Command Buttons===
General Command buttons (often referred to as GCs or Command Buttons) are invisible buttons that can send any type of command.
==Button Priority==
Buttons have different priorities. One has to be very careful when designing levels that use buttons of the same colour but of different kinds. For example, a square button will keep a gate open, but once something presses and leaves a round button that is responsible for the same gate, it will close.
