#39943 Lan wires?

Posted by Kadecamz on 14 October 2012 - 02:44 AM in Suggestions

I would absolutely LOVE this!
I could wire up a whole small town.

But I'm also curious, if the wires would not hook up to a computer, then where would they hook up to?
Also, would it be possible to have a filter computer that would check whats going through the wires, and log it. (and if it comes from an ID blocked in the table, it doesn't allow that to pass)

Would there be something like lan.receive()?

I was wondering what all of you guys listen to while doing some coding.
I listen to Metal(Bullet For My Valentine, A7X, Five Finger Death Punch and a few others)

Woah.
almost exactly the same for me (though I've never heard of A7X), with some dubstep thrown in.

EDIT: heh, checked out A7X, pretty good.

#39906 How do I make a GUI with key events?

Posted by Kadecamz on 14 October 2012 - 12:51 AM in Ask a Pro

Can you please add a note to every single line of code?
just to help me learn.

#39897 How do I make a GUI with key events?

Posted by Kadecamz on 14 October 2012 - 12:31 AM in Ask a Pro

can you put it into one section of code please, just so I can test it.

Also, Fatal.

How would you get the id, msg and distance with the rednet message event?

Would it just be

id, msg = if event == "rednet_message" then

Or link me to them, i can't find any.

#39876 How do I make a GUI with key events?

Posted by Kadecamz on 13 October 2012 - 11:39 PM in Ask a Pro

Alright, I already know how to do key readings

event, p1 = os.pullEvent()
if event == "key" and p1 == "keycode here" then

But I wanna know how to be able to use them to make those awesome GUI menus, where you press the up/down arrow key to move the selector.

Can somebody teach me how?

Also, I'm wondering how you could do rednet.receive() and os.pullEvent("eventhere") at the same time, say if I was making a rednet broadcasting monitor but also wanted to be able to broadcast something if a key was detected.

Wait, but how do I do a mix of letters AND numbers, and then put it into a string to print?

#39828 Problem with rednet sending

Posted by Kadecamz on 13 October 2012 - 07:39 PM in Ask a Pro

Yay!
Its working now.

But I have one more question, can you erase printed pages?
and how do you randomly generate a letter?

Now I'm getting a problem on line 19.

It says attempt to index ? a nil value

#39802 Problem with rednet sending

Posted by Kadecamz on 13 October 2012 - 06:50 PM in Ask a Pro

I fixed that too, but still getting the error rednet:350:string expected

current code

rednet.open("back")
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(9,2)
print("Would you like to launch a missile?")
term.setCursorPos(23,9)
print("Y/N")
event, p1 = os.pullEvent("key")
if p1 == 21 then
term.setCursorPos(19,10)
write("Printing Codes")
sleep(1)
write(".")
sleep(1)
write(".")
sleep(1)
write(".")
lcode = math.random(100000,999999)
rednet.send(3,lcode)
printer.write(lcode)
printer.setPageTitle("LAUNCH CODE")
printer.endPage()
term.setCursorPos(19,10)
term.clearLine()
term.setCursorPos(19,10)
print("Completed!")
sleep(2)
rednet.broadcast(lcode)
shell.run("startup")
elseif p1 == 49 then
term.setCursorPos(19,18)
print("Aborted!")
sleep(3)
shell.run("startup")
end

I did!

lcode is whatever the math.random generates

Posted by Kadecamz on 13 October 2012 - 05:39 PM in Ask a Pro

I made it rednet.send(2,lcode) and now its erroring me whenever the program reaches that line of code.

The error: rednet:350:string expected

Please tell what I did wrong with it
Also, are you able to make the computer text be colored in the console or do you have to use the config?

#39201 Help sleep and while true do

TY.
Now I have a problem, when I do while true do, sleeps do not function correctly. (they get skipped)

#39175 Help sleep and while true do

Posted by Kadecamz on 11 October 2012 - 09:02 PM in Ask a Pro

Now this isn't really a problem but its been wasting about 30 minutes of my time
I need a grid to show where the Y and Z cords are for term.setCursorPos(?,?)

thanks

#39169 Help sleep and while true do

Posted by Kadecamz on 11 October 2012 - 08:43 PM in Ask a Pro

All you need to go is in the code.

allowed = false term.clear() term.setCursorPos(1,1) print("PC"..os.getComputerID().."/ROM/ENTRY") print("DENIED; ENTER ACCESS CODE") rs.setOutput("top",false) rs.setOutput("bottom",false) rs.setOutput("left",false) rs.setOutput("right",false) rs.setOutput("front",false) rs.setOutput("back",false) sleep(0) term.setCursorPos(34,1) print(os.time()) term.setCursorPos(17,10) write("USERNAME: ") term.setCursorPos(34,20) if allowed = false then print("ACCESS STATE: FALSE") if allowed = true then -- Problem is here, getting "bios:328: [string "startup"]:18: then expected print("ACCESS STATE: TRUE") end

Ignore above.

Now this isn't really a problem but its been wasting about 30 minutes of my time
I need a grid to show where the Y and Z cords are for term.setCursorPos(?,?)

Now I need to know why sleep does not work in while true do functions

while true do
print("hi")
sleep(3) -- It always is skipped in while true do.
end

Please tell me how to fix.
