(when a gate has multiple inputs, unless specified otherwise, the speed applies to all of the inputs)
General
For multiple inputs, dependencies are evaluated by the order they appear on the gate, top to bottom.
Selector
Cycle input is slow. It does not evaluate its dependencies early. Other inputs are fast and behave as normal gates.
Microchip
(with one input and no outputs) All inputs fast
The activate input is checked before and independently of the regular inputs.
Other inputs are then checked top-to-bottom
Activation before other, older gates? No
With inner microchips and no inputs/outputs -> tag propogration is instant [microchip_activation_0]
Sequencer
(with one input and no outputs) All inputs fast
Sackbot trick
Converting analog to digital with a sackbot is instant. It can be done multiple times per frame and occurs during the same phase as logic gates.
A sackbot uses about 1/250th of a thermometer (~4000 units). It has 16 inputs that can be used (~250 thermometer units per analog-to-digital conversion).
The output can be on for two frames instead of the expected one.
Physics
Activating a destroyer and a tag on an object in the same frame causes the tag sensor to not activate.
