In a future version of this module is there no way the locomotive relay can be coded in a way that it reads the locomotive destination from a track sensor? I have an extensive rail network under development and it will require many relays. Firstly it seems you can only bind one relay to one loco. Thats problem 1. Problem 2 is even if you could bind a loco to multiple relays the task of rebinding that loco to relays spread out across miles of track would be near impossible - you simply cannot guarantee the survival of any particular loco as an entity.

I basically want to track a locomotive as it moves up the line - using the route name as an unique ID and route code and feeding that info a software program that displays estimated time of arrivals at on platform display monitors.

Are there ANY helpful wiki's out there for this? I went to the wiki that the Speaking Turtle link takes you to: " http://mc.shinonome....at_box#chat_box" and other than :

  • say(message) - says a message within the chatbox distance.


  • An event is sent every time the Chat Box receives a message. The name of the event is “chat_message”, the first parameter is the username and the second parameter is the message.
This really doesn't explain how to use the turtles chat box functionality at all... I can't find ANY videos nor tutorials... ANYONE have a clue how to use this mod (specifically chatbox with turtles????) :wacko: :blink:

It describes it perfectly well for me, at least.

local chat = peripheral.wrap( "side" ) --#wrap the peripheral
chat.say( "hi" ) --#says hi in chat
local event, user, message = os.pullEvent( "chat_message" ) --#get a message from a player

I sincerely appreciate the response and your time :)

I'm just starting out, and it seems that after wrapping the peripheral it becomes dynamic as to what else you can follow through with. It makes sense to you because you're obviously more familiar.. I'm teaching myself using tutorials and youtube... I'd been hoping for info on the parameters and their usage.. typical tutorial or wiki delineating it's usage; "this is the function and this is how you go about using inside your code " for Dummies :D
I can see through your example that you wrap the peripheral to whatever side it's on.. but the idea behind calling the os.pullEvent... why would you wait for a chat message from the user? I assume this mod allowed the turtle to chat messages that you could code into a function.... :blink: :ph34r:

You don't have to pull chat messages if you don't want to. However, the ability is there, if you like (chatting commands to your turtle and such).

Kool....
IF you wouldn't mind.... Would you mind clarifying how it would be done?
once I declare the function .. say,

function turtleChat()
local chat = peripheral.wrap( "right" ) --#wrap the peripheral using your code
local event, user, message = os.pullEvent( "chat_message" ) --#get a message from a player using your code
end

Now I presume that "chat.say("hi")--#says hi in chat " is used in order for the turtle to say "hi", so it's not needed in the function?
But then how would I get the turtle to say something instead of say printing it??

Again, thank you for your patience and time :)

I wouldn't wrap the peripheral inside a function that will be used multiple times, perhaps if I had some idea of what you were going to use this for I could advise you further.

Basic.. Like I'm teaching myself functions and sometime I get ahead of myself.. so I tend to write in code so I know for example at what part of a loop the turtle is on.. so I'll stick "print("I'm blah blah blah on this step")" at certain part of a function or program in order to better get an idea of what's happening and where things go wrong. I'll have my turtles print out comments every so many loops to give myself the illusion that they complain... Nothing big.. lol I'd rather have them say it in chat than print though.. :)

I really suggest that you start with the Ask a Pro series, a relevant tutorial would be Peripheral Basics. I also suggest that you familiarise yourself with Lua by reading the PIL.

Um, moderators out there, don't take this as a request for an update, but, asie, you are done? I had so many ideas for things to do with the tape drives alone from this mod, I was gonna make an "internet" radio station in game... but never mind now...

Hey! This is my new mod, Computronics. It adds some new interesting peripherals, including simple Cameras, Cassette Tapes and MiscP's Iron Note Blocks and Chat Boxes.

The Cameras let you gather information (distance) about your surroundings, the Cassette Tapes let you record and play back music with a special format and... Iron Note Blocks are noteblocky. More features are planned, though!

Since 0.3.0, we add Cipher Blocks - encode and decode messages! - and CC 1.6 support!

I was looking throught lionrays source code and i realised you can execute it automaticaly without user input from the window with arguments from java, but it wasnt working. How do i run it with arguments?

What i found:
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
  if (args.length > 0) { // called with params, CLI assumed
   String inputPath = args[0];
   String outputPath = args.length > 1 ? args[1] : (inputPath + ".dfpwm");
  
   try {
    convert(inputPath, outputPath);
   } catch (UnsupportedAudioFileException e) {
    System.err.println("Audio format unsupported");
    return;
   } catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    return;
   }
  } else {
   UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
   LionRayJFrame = new LionRay();
  }
}
