This PG tech is a generalization of rules we know of in a way that makes them useful for PG tech. This can link closely with bird tech. Since this is one time only, a NOT gate is not possible. Instead, send signals down one path to represent a 1, and another to represent 0. Most paths are tubes, and will only ever carry one signal, a single dot of mercury.
Ah, screw it, here's examples.
OR gate and AND gate.

Hmm, so this only works with Mercury? That would make it easily adaptable for laser/thunder tech, certainly.

Well, I generalized some principals of PG physics to turn them into a useful tech. It doesn't HAVE to be mercury.

main issue I can see is that the liquid can randomly slide around in midair, leading uncertain outputs.
Ant could work, or a redesign to include a different 2 input-1 output mechanism.
alot of different ways you could go there. Bird, Acid-Nitro-Solid, etc.

I know that...
I mean like with the OR gate, both liquid molecules have a chance of coming out of the output instead of just one.
The just need to both slide over to the right when they are by the opening.
suppose you could even just plop in the 2 input-1 output device after the gate.
That would leave the original design the same, while preventing the double output from affecting the next gate in the series.

No. The one on the right is the OR gate, the one on the left is the AND.

you're going to kill me...   this state is what I'm talking about. Both mercury molecules have slid over rather than fallen, so they'll both exit instead of just one. main problem comes when the double output hits the next gate in the series. Can cause a gate to read true regardless of the other input. |

Oh crud... Yes... I shall fix that. That is supposed to be an AND gate...
