Logic Pain - Smart(er) Event Controller

This mod makes the Event Controller smarter, and behave more logically - at least to my mind.

The event conditions in the Event Controller are changed to properly reflect a logical "OR", instead of firing rather inconsistently when tracking multiple blocks.

By default, the Event Controller operates in a mode where tracking multiple blocks gives very inconsistent, and largely useless results.

Consider a simple example, with two doors, and the Event Controller monitoring for "Door Opened".
- Both doors start closed, Event Controller remains "Off"
- Open one door, Event Controller signals "On"
- Open the second door, Event Controller remains "On"
- Close one door, Event Controller signals "Off"

This last state is rather undesirable, since the Event Controller is now signaling "Off" despite a door still being open.
The basic problem here is that the Event Controller does not actually track the states of the blocks, and rather will always mirror the state of the last block that changed. One door closed, the Event Controller signals "Doors Closed".

In any logical system, this sort of behavior does not offer any benefit. The built-in "AND" mode actually works fine however, only the default did not. One might consider this issue a bug, but we will have to see if Keen does so as well.

With this mod, and therefor a proper OR, and the built-in AND mode, you can cover all potentially interesting conditions, which is not possible without them.
Is any door open? Is any door closed?
Are all doors open? Are all doors closed?

"Door Opened" is of course only used as an example condition, and all conditions that accept multiple blocks are affected.

All events that are adjusted by this mod will have a "(Smart)" added behind their name.

For technical reasons, it was not possible to adjust "Angle Changed" and "Gas Filled %", and of course those that do not interact with multiple blocks are not touched.

Due to inconsistent behavior of the vanilla event, the "Connector Ready to Lock" is currently also not included.

In the hope of getting a similar fix into the vanilla game, as I do not see how the current behavior makes any sense, I have reported the issue here:
