Circuits (Wow topic lenght was too short)

I used Redpower for an while and its really pissing me off. PLease promise me that you are adding some blocks with an gui (or hud or whatever) which can handle Logic functions change the Output and contain an wireless adapter which prevents that i have to lay wires in the whole ship.

Dont missunderstood me I dont want that I get an predefined air lock which can placed with an rightclick.
I want to build everything on my own but with the right tools and on an minimum of space.

I think this will be most likely added.

Look, I think we have this covered. Just let us worry about how circuits are going to work, and you can complain later if you don't like them.

Let's let them talk, even if you have an idea. Then, when they produce good ideas, we take them and use it in your plan, or something else. Just because you have an idea doesn't mean they can't talk.

Anyways, my idea:

COMPUTERCRAFT!!!!

Do you mean CC compatibility or CC like features in-game?

He can´t mean CC compatibility. FC will be compatible with nothing.

Sure it will.

It's a modloader mod, if you don't mod the same base class, chances are you are fine.

Anyways, I mean either get computercraft, by talking to the guy, or make our own.

Or kidnapping. Kidnapping is always an option.

It is always an option.

Ach, have your owl-millitary ready!

Sig'd.

It will have some form of CC. I'm on the CC development team, so that should work out.

*edit*
I am now realizing by CC you were referring to computer craft and not cubic chunks. Time for me to go to bed, I think.

But yeah, LUA scripting might be nice to have.

That appears to be a sound plan, Savior.

I think it is too complex for simple circuits but it would be good for NPCs and Robots

You think LUA is comlpicated? I can learn LUA by just experimenting! Now we need an RP style circuits and LUA based computers. period.

It's possible he means overpowered, which it is. I think redpower's logic gates are more fun myself, but that probably won't cut it for some of the things we're going to need.

If that's the case I don't want to run wires to everything and just type into a console I want to actually build the circuits. And you can tone down the power of the LUA computers by making only basic programs built in, or make the user code the programs based of a few APIs and even code a few of their own.

But then what if you wanted to do something cool, like write a program to control all your maneuvering thrusters and make your ship do tricks? No way could you pull that off with regular redstone and logic gates, but then how do you draw the line? Plus scripting will probably be used for server events and NPC behavior, maybe even whole NPC organizations.

True... that would be awesome... ok give me an hour or two to think this through.



slightly offtopic:
Will there be things like servos or something to that effect? I think it wold be cool to have a robot do the robot... IN MINECRAFT...in SPACE!... the program would be difficult though....

Robot level, no. Block level, yes.
