Narcissistic pocket computer
Closed this issue · 8 comments
This is a suggestion for an addition to the pocket computer.
The idea of the pocket computer involves that it shouldn't be able to have peripherals except for the wireless modem. But I think it would be a cool idea if it could be like the narcissistic turtle, that it could see the players inventory like it if was a chest.
Since pocket computers don't support peripherals I bet it doesn't either in the API so Idk if this is possible.
Anyways would be even better if it could be wireless AND narcissistic, so you can tell other computers what you got on you.
Will look at the API, but if it's not there it's unlikely to be added.
Dan200 is very strong on not having his mod hacked with functionality so if the API does not provide this mechanism I'm sorry to say it likely will not appear in OPA.
You can add peripherals to it now, I think the functionality was added in https://github.com/austinv11/CollectiveFramework. Something by austinv11 adds that ability, as he has his own pocket peripherals in Peripherals++.
That's a dependency we wont be adding. We only use APIs provided by the mod we are writing Adapters for.
K, even without using it as a dependency, it shows that it can be done.
if its not in the computercraft API, its not a thing going in OpenPeripherals.
To end all discussions: no CC API -> no OP support.
Even if it's doable (by messing with CC internals) we are not going to spend time developing and (more importantly) maintaining such hack.
Have anyone mentioned this to dan? Maybe he could add an API for this?
Or maybe make a block that links to a players inventory like the player interface from pneumaticcraft
