On my server i wanted to try to make a virus just for fun and i wanted to display it on a big monitor but i didnt figured out how.

Code:

a = 0
term.clear()
while true do
if a == 100 then
term.clear()
a = 0
end
term.setCursorPos(15.9)
print("Virus Detected...Auto-Destruct Enabled")
x = math.random(1,16)
y = math.random(1,50)
term.setCursorPos(y,x)
print("0")
sleep(.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000)
a = a + 1
end

Thx For your time

mon = pheripheral.wrap("side") --Change side to what side monitor is on
a = 0
term.clear()
while true do
if a == 100 then
term.clear()
a = 0
end
term.setCursorPos(15.9)
mon.write("Virus Detected...Auto-Destruct Enabled")
x = math.random(1,16)
y = math.random(1,50)
term.setCursorPos(y,x)
mon.write("0")
sleep(.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000)
a = a + 1
end

It gives me a error:

startup:1: attempt to index ? (a nil value)

peripheral, not pheripheral.

One more thing... The program should spam wiht 0 in different zones but it doesnt even shows the full text (Virus detected)

Shouldn't it be mon.setCursorPos(x,y) instead of term.setCursorPos(x,y)?

can you post the whole code?

mon = peripheral.wrap("side") --make the first line this. REpleace the exisisting one. Change side to what side monitor is on.

[cant_delete_account]

Just use:

local mon = peripheral.wrap("side") -- change side to side of monitor
term.redirect(mon)
local a = 0
term.clear()
while true do
if a == 100 then
term.clear()
a = 0
end
term.setCursorPos(15.9)
print("Virus Detected...Auto-Destruct Enabled")
x = math.random(1,16)
y = math.random(1,50)
term.setCursorPos(y,x)
print("0")
sleep(.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000)
a = a + 1
end
term.restore()
