Complex mode will be an upgradable feature of Communication bridge app (one time in app purchase, not a subscription), which will extend the device limit from 2 to up to 8 devices. Retransmission will be edited in the form of a matrix, and each device will be able to retransmit to any other. Autostart script will support up to 8 devices.

TESTERS WANTED

This feature is currently in the development - ready for internal testing. If you want to test it, please send me an email an you will get an early access to the app with this feature.  As a reward, you will keep this functionality for free, once it is released ;)

Once this feature is purchased, it can be activated from the menu. Click on App mode and select Complex mode, and enter device count. App layout will adjust for required device count. In complex mode, retransmissions are edited in the form of a matrix. If you want to return back to editing retransmission options for only 2 devices, switch back to Simple AB bridge and the app layout will simplify back to default appearance.

Since complex bridge mode allows to activate up to 8 devices, retransmission can be edited in the form of a matrix. Each element of the matrix represent retransmission relation between specific device in a particular row and column and can have a boolean value of true or false, allowing or disabling respective retransmission. Let`s see following example.

Autostart script works the same way in Simple AB bridge and Complex mode. In Complex mode it can start automatically all 8 devices. For the retransmission options, actual retransmission matrix is applied.
