Advanced Computer

Sxw1212: /* Exclusive Functions */ Added Mouse and touches to exclusive functions for advanced computers.

The Advanced Computer is a [[computer]] that has mouse and colour API support. More exclusive features may be added in another update. They resemble the traditional computer console, but are golden coloured to match their crafting [[recipes|recipe]].

==Exclusive Functions==
[[File:AdvancedComputerPaint.png|frame|right|An advanced computer running Paint, an exclusive program]]
[[Advanced Computer|Advanced Computers]] and [[Advanced Monitor|Advanced Monitors]] both have access to color-setting functions in the [[Term (API)]]. In contrast, the standard [[Computer|Computers]] and [[Monitor|Monitors]] do not have access to color-setting functions. Also, advanced computers are able to detect mouse clicks, drags, and scrolls, while the standard [[Computer|Computers]] and [[Monitor|Monitors]] can not. Note that [[Advanced Monitor|Advanced Monitors]] can only detect touch.

Cobble Generator

Sxw1212: /* Advanced Generator */

== Colors ==
Run Loop: while true do 
If: if a==b then 
Action: turtle.dig() 
Var: a = turtle.getItemCount(1) 
Print: Print("Cobble Farm") 
For: for i=1,16 do

== Coding ==
First, you have to make a loop so the machine keeps running:
while true do
''''Command
end
Now, inside of the loop, you have to add something to detect the block:
while true do
if turtle.detect() then
''''Command
end
end
After that, the block must be mined:
while true do
if turtle.detect() then
turtle.dig()
end
end
This detects if a block is present, and then mines it.
However, when all the 16 block spaces are filled with blocks, they must be dropped to collect new blocks:
while true do
if turtle.detect() then
turtle.dig()
end
itemcount = turtle.getItemCount(16)
if itemcount == 64 then
''''Drop all stacks
end
end
Not that it may not be a good idea to drop all stacks on the ground.
To drop all stacks, another loop must be added:
while true do
if turtle.detect() then
turtle.dig()
end
itemcount = turtle.getItemCount(9)
if itemcount == 64 then
for i=1,16 do
''''Select each stack and then drops it
end
end
end
To select each stack and drop it, a turtle.select() and a turtle.drop() must be added:
while true do
if turtle.detect() then
turtle.dig()
end
itemcount = turtle.getItemCount(16)
if itemcount == 64 then
for i=1,16 do
turtle.select(i)
turtle.drop()
end
turtle.select(1)
end
end

== Advanced Generator ==
This is the generator I created (for use with (height:4 width:2) monitor):

function counter()
local i = 0
return function() i = i + 1 return i end
end
function modStr(num)
if num < 10 then
return "0" .. num
else
return num
end
