I'm thinking of setting up a control room to display data from everywhere else in the base. The obvious difficulty is getting that data. Every room/area has it's own APC, and it seems like it would break things to connect them all together. I know I can use logic mirrors, but that's quite a lot (maybe 25) and loads of cable. I also thought of logic transmitters, but that's only one variable, and a lot of those too. I had one horrible idea where an IC10 on each circuit could collate the data, label it in some way, and send it through a transmitter to be unencoded in the control room.

Am I missing anything?
Are there better ways?
Is this guaranteed to be a horrible mess no matter what?
Should I abondon the idea?
