Nice program.

If you have Thermal expansion installed you can make it so you don't have to manually start ANY computers up.

On the computer that's running on, build this:

Spoiler

That's a thermal expansion autonomous activator set to right click when it receives a signal. You should be able to replace the cable w/ a piece of redstone.

Then set "startup" to:

redstone.setOutput("INSERT SIDE W/ TORCH HERE",true)
shell.run("INSERT PROGRAM NAME HERE")

I was trying to do something like this, but with the "On" script you have to type 'r' in order to actually reboot any machines.
What part of the script would I remove/change in order to have 'startup' just go straight into rebooting all machines, without asking me to type x,b or r first?
I tried my hand at deleting things, but only managed to break it. I am extremely noobish to CC.

Without digging too far into things, it looks like a simple-ish way of automating it might be to change this block (around line 373):

if animations then
        parallel.waitForAny(checkForComps, keyPress, animateSpinLines, animateLoadBar)
else
        parallel.waitForAny(checkForComps, keyPress)
end

... to something like:

local function pressR()
	sleep(15)  -- Make sure all chunks that should load have time to do so.
	os.queueEvent("char", "r")  -- Simulate a press of "r".
	os.pullEvent("letMeSleep")  -- Coroutine will go dormant.
end
	
if animations then
        parallel.waitForAny(checkForComps, keyPress, animateSpinLines, animateLoadBar, pressR)
else
        parallel.waitForAny(checkForComps, keyPress, pressR)
end

Mm, your request is delicious. Anyhow, I just updated the program to do what you wanted it to do. All you have to do it reinstall it, then change the variable at the top of the program from false to true, then it will reboot the PCs at startup, hopefully.

You are my hero. You have made our ModSauce server super happy. Thanks.

Holy crap, I did? I'll have to do something about that! Can't have people be happy willy nilly!
But cereally, I'm glad I made a (whole?) server happy with my programming skills, or lack thereof. I really appreciate it! To be honest I didn't think very many people at all look at my programs, despite constant update.

Feature suggestion, run a file after turning on all computers

Done. It's in the config (which I should make more obvious in the menu).
To have a program run on startup, set 'startupProg' to the path of the file (with arguments like "less -d butt -u http://pastebin.com/R4DKXbzm") in the config file ('/.on_conf').

Thanks for that program! That's exactly what i searched for.

But how would you turn on the computer that turns the other computers on automaticaly, when you join that computer would be shutdown so you would have to make another computer turning the computer on that turns the computer on that turns all the computers on.

You know too much. Take the blue pill like a good citizen.

just saying turning on 1000 computers at once kills servers
like it just murders them

When you have thermal expansion, you can just use an autonomous activator d:
