Re: Computers
To put it in. We are adding quite a bit to the filestructure as it is. A global layer for programs would be nothing.
Re: Computers
Thats how Computercraft does it, I think. The problem is going to be server transfer with it.

Re: Computers
Yes, I would imagine so. We'll need to experiment with a couple different transfer strategies before committing to anything drastic, but I don't think this sort of thing will get in the way. Making sure the ship's internal state remains coherent during the transfer is the important thing. It probably won't matter if we get a few ticks behind the outside world as long as the inside is internally consistent.Keon wrote:Thats how Computercraft does it, I think.

Re: Computers
the programming of my computer
is very simple
there is a list of machines connected to the network
there is a run list that shows what does what in what order under what name
if you select a machine
you would be able to select a couple of tasks
letting the computer check something [state of the machine/stats]
turning it on
resetting to default value
turning up variables [wanted temprature use of fuel power it generates]
and then you would have a couple of other commands like wait [making the program wait a moment before going further]
stop [letting it stop completely]
rename [changing the name of a specified machine]
all these commands can be used one at a time
or people can make lists of them like this
each machine would have a name
a simple engine would have its own name but you can change its name so programms could use it
you could also name a terminal
so you could have mainframe turning on " life support" wich is the terminal that has this commands entered
this makes for an easy to use programming for people who dont know anything about it
but a very usefull thing for experienced programmers
because they can make virusses that change names of machines so other programs wouldnt work
or just letting the temprature rise to a 1000 degrees
and others can make security networks because a door would also be open or closed and a computer can check that
you could also installate programs that hop from machine to machine to protect it by constantly checking it
or change malfuncioning programs
its very versitiyle and i think there are already enough ideas that would be easy to hook up to this

Re: Computers
I can't say for sure before we know what sort of scripting language/interface it will have, but that sounds about right.

Re: Computers
YAI for Joyk computer idea!
Also,we have to search for good code languages to use in a better way of making people deal with computer programs without any knowledge in code. Like: Ruby,LUA [Brazillian one] or Scratch.

Re: Computers
Fine, everything is coded in assembly like 0x10C.
Re: Computers
That's okay. We can work with that.

Re: Computers
That is painfully apparent.
I think our computers shouldn't have code. They need an idiot-proof GUI with big buttons and menus.
