Multipule Source / Single Destination

I have a power bus that is feed from multiple sources. I want to use to have the source used in the source/destination signals. All the destinations are the bus. Is it possible to have multiple source/destination signals connect to a common bus?

I don't know if this answers your question or not... but you can have
multiple "source" signal arrows on one physical section of a wire network
but only ONE "destination" signal arrow on that section of network.

Is there any way to have multiple incoming wire sources go to a single terminal? The incoming sources will have the same wire number but different signal codes.

My first thought is to reverse it. Have the buss be the source instead of the destination. Afterall, the buss is feeding power to the end devices. That is how we do it here.

The way AcadE's wire number Source/Destination arrows work is that the
"destination" end's wire number assignment is totally controlled by the wire
number on the "source" end. This means a couple things: 1) since a single
AcadE wire (network) can't have two different wire number assignments, then
AcadE must limit the number of "destination" arrows that can be inserted on
a single wire network to just one... because of the chance that two
destinations might come from two sources that control different wire
numbers, 2) a single AcadE wire (network) can have MANY different "source"
arrows tied to it going to many other "destination" arrows, all with
different "Signal" codes... but all pointing to the common source's wire
number assignment.

So, you can do what you want but you have to put the multiple "sources" on
the wires tied to your terminal, not multiple "destinations" on the wires
tied to your terminal.
