Hello,

suggesting a hub that you can connect maybe with cables or even wirelessly to a computer. You then could connect more than 6 Peripherals to one Computer.

Or you could add simply cables (RP Bundled-cables?) to connect Peripherals to a Computer.

Actually instead of bundled cables if RP is instaled, use RIBBON cables if RP is installed

Oh god no, ribbon cables are a pain in the ass to craft.

I worked on a peripheral for that, but I didn't find a good routing model. If somebody has an idea, I might try it.

i'd like a cable acting as a peripheral that connects other peripherals and RP2 IO Expanders

Well I think it would be even harder simulating a Computer. But at least your "advanced resource processing" don't even use the original api if I'm not mistaken. Maybe a simple food routing. Or easier like the Ribbon Cables in RP you can only create one long track to each side but can't make curves or crossings.

With routing i meant the algorithm to find the peripheral whose method should be called. That part is also rather easy, but I have problems with back-dispatching the events.

Ok. I guess it would be much easier to add this as a native feature of ComputerCraft.
