#54566 Rednet Satellites - RedSat?

Posted by kamnxt on 27 November 2012 - 04:54 AM in Suggestions

It could be similar to a normal computer, but without a screen and with a built in rednet modem, so to make it work you would first have to connect it to a computer to program it. When programming it, you would need to either make it possible to control it using rednet, or make a program that works alone and doesn't need to be modified.

And there could be a config option to make them have some TNT inside... It could be fun with the rednet frequencies suggestion... Someone could hack it and make it explode!

Or use creative to launch hundreds and... FIREWORKS!

How do the batch turtles work? Is it like you can make your real computer run .bat files? and what with Linux and Mac?

#31864 rednet frequencies

Posted by kamnxt on 14 September 2012 - 11:19 AM in Suggestions

Awesome idea!
The rednet could be open, so hackers could read your messages...
It would be a nice challenge, because if you don't want hackers to read your messages (and send new) easily, you can just secure it! ROT13, base64...
And... broadcasting like APs: you could make the rednet modem broadcast it's name and frequency, and you could find them on other computers! And maybe mac addresses... and ip addresses...
And you could add auth systems!

#31746 Turtles interacting with buttons and levers

And lever codes! Player enters correct code, goes in, and then a turtle comes out and resets the levers so noone else can see what the code is!

#31745 [1.4] One turtle, four slots for peripherals

Posted by kamnxt on 13 September 2012 - 09:00 PM in Suggestions

Maybe not 4 (top, right, left, and where would the last one be?), but swapping 3 or 2 peripherals would be nice.

I really like the sticky piston idea. But one more thing would be needed: sticky blocks. they could allow you to move multiple blocks. Maybe crafted like this: S = slimeball, B = stone (or wood)

Maybe you could make it download sounds from the server? The server stores all the sounds and the client downloads them when connecting, so every client would be able to play them.

#10823 i cant figure out this error

Posted by kamnxt on 27 April 2012 - 12:59 PM in Ask a Pro

In your code you want to get a key. You used

a, b = os.pullEvent()
while a ~= "key" do a, b = os.pullEvent() end

If you only wait for one type of events, you can use os.pullEvent("eventType").

a,b = os.pullEvent("key")

True, but humans don't have eyes on the sides of their head.
But you're right, robots can have them, so why not turtles? They should have them.
And if left and right detecing is added, why not add turtle.detectBack() too?

Try this code:

if not line then break else length = length + 1 end

file.close()

Maybe you could make multiplayer client-server-client, so you could connect a monitor to the server?

#9249 Font control?

luanub, on 14 April 2012 - 04:55 AM, said:

I don't think this is possible in a CC terminal. The only text you can control to my knowledge is the text on a monitor.

You can control monitor font size by using:

monitor = peripheral.wrap("side") -- Side must be the side where you have a monitor
monitor.setTextScale(5) -- Change this to a number from 1 to 5
monitor.setCursorPos(1,1)
monitor.write("BIG!")

There should be a peripheral suggestions section on this forum. So people who don't know how to program could post their ideas and other people could make these peripherals.

All it is:

The name of it is "ram". No arguments. AND IT EXISTS AND HAS THE CODE

No, I mean the program with

Don't try this code:

side = "top"
pda = peripheral.wrap(side)
pda.registerAsEventListener()
pda.createGui()
while true do
os.pullEvent()
pda.displayGui()
end

It makes it impossible to close the PDA GUI...

Posted by kamnxt on 08 April 2012 - 10:25 AM in Ask a Pro

event, var1, var2, var3 = os.pullEvent()

event: the name of the event ("redstone","key" or something else)
var1-var3: the values returned.
You can also use os.pullEvent(eventType) where eventType is "redstone", "key" or something else to choose what types of events it will wait for.
