After having 1 of these radars scanning a full 64x64 chunk i noticed a large consistant spike in lag. i found this to be in the function that processed the find entities data.

I have refactored this function and also went overboard with the tweaking. I changed the operation to use both reg and green signals. Using just the 'C' signal to operate it
0=off,1=position,2=area({X,Y},{X+U,Y+V}), 3=area({X,Y},{U,V})

It also reports the full resource count instead of just the number of tiles found

I hope this helps someone

It would have been nice if you had properly forked this on github so I could actually see the changes and potentially include them in future releases...

In particular, the better counting would be nice as a separate patch. One-wire reading was done on purpose though, for performance reasons.

my apologies for not forking correctly as i am still a newb on github and the changes were a "i wonder" situation

i found there was insignificant performance loss in mixing input signals but that may just be in my case
