Any ideas / random conjecture about what it might be ?

[Kazimir]

printer for printing map?
or something like punch cards

[ciba43]

It seems like some kind of printer. Not sure. Maybe for turtle office buildings: Turtles prints papers, Then sell stuff on Rednet. Just idea.

[Pinkishu]

Should be printers for 1.3.1 books, no? />

[Mendax]

for minecraft 1.3.1 or minecraft 1.3.2 ? I don't think the big popular mods are going to be updated any time some. some moders i was talking too were finding it difficult due to major changes in the code for example the merging of client and server. and the bigger the mod the more headaches.

1.3.2, I asked him and he said he was busy porting to 1.3.2 (And forge is out for it...)

I just don't see the practical application of printers though. Unless I'm missing something, what would making printed paper accomplish?

NO IDEA

[D3matt]

What does anything in computercraft DO? It does whatever you make it do.

[Cranium]

I was just looking for possibles, anyone else know what a printer would do? Other than printing, what kind of things could it do? I'm thinking maybe being able to print books?

[Xfel]

Only for interest as peripheral developer: How long will it take until CC is updated to MC1.3.2? Just so that I can decide whether to add new features now or start porting to 1.3.2 myself.

[Pinkishu]

well books are a feature of MC1.3 so it would be an easy way to print many books

We are working on it right now - I don't know of the progress as I don't have any access to a computer until Sunday, but we are trying to get it out of the door as soon as we can. I can see dan doing daily commits to the 1.3 branch though!

Side note: I like how there's one feature in plain sight in that image which no one has even pointed out />

[inventor2514]

Yeah, what's up with the lime green floppy disk? It could be a colored disk that is easier to recognize, or it could be something more.

EDIT: Also, does anyone else see the second slot on the disk drive texture?

[Cranium]

I think that it might be a printer that you're seeing... But nothing's confirmed yet. But it does seem likely giving what video Dan posted along with the picture...

[cant_delete_account]

Interesting things pointed out with the arrow (what seems to be a different floppy disk and a new block?):

[Pinkishu]

Well the new block might likely be the one he has opened and yes there is a new feature of colored floppy disks />
