I need help i want to make a prop were when i disconnect a wire it will display a message on my display.

5

I need help

I agree.

You appear to have made no effort whatsoever.

6

Treat the wire as a switch, and take a look at examples using pushbuttons.

7

what is the other end of the wire connected to?

seems to me that is very much like a simple switch set-up/project... but using a normally CLOSED switch type.

8

nothing it is just used like a defuse.

Well, for starters, real bombs don't have keypads, displays, or a special wire dedicated to defusing them...? Basically, nothing about a prop bomb has any applicability to a real one - so I'm not sure what the concern is.

Well, good to know.
Note to self: If a package has any of these components, you are completely safe.

so I'm not sure what the concern is

If you search "bomb" on the web site, you get 563 hits.

If we talk about controlled bombs, like mining they have small keypads with display with timer, not all mining industried have that but I know people who do.

Another thing is that airsoft games or paintball games have nice ground maps which there is hiding bombs or traps to make the field more realistic.
I found this as well:

If you ever played cs 1.6 you will know there is a bomb which people play and have fun, they put it and counter-ter. try to defuse it..etc

Example people playing airfost with (toy) defusing bomb

Thank you so would I just use the normal code but when it is disconnected tell it to send an out out.
