by Pyrollo » Post

Digiterms

Monitors display text received on their digiline channel and works like digilines lcd monitor. Craft recipes depend on installed mods, please refer to craft guide in game.

Keyboards send text ofer their digiline channel. In protected areas, keyboard can be set to "Public" to be usable by anybody. Else, only players granted rights on the area can use the keyboard.

If scifi_nodes mod is enabled, scifi monitors can be turned into digiterms by crafting scifi monitor with a digiline.

It looks good in the screenshot.
However the name is a little bit irritating.

LOL, did you too expect something a bit different after seeing the name for the first time? XD

Ahah actually that was totally unconscious, I did not know about Digimon, I found that the name sounded good for digilines monitors :)

I'm totally open to any other name ;)

Yes !

Actually, I'm thinking of something wider. I have to check if it could be possible, but it would be interresting to have some input devices also, like keyboards.

Nice, but how to use that? It seems to require the lua controller, which is part of the mesecons package, but I don't get it working.

Have you set up the digiline channel on the monitor ?
Should be the same as arg #1

I set it to 1 and the code is

Code: Select all

port.a = true;
digiline_send(1, "Hallo World!");
I hope, that is correct ...

Edit
I got it, I forgot the quotes around the first argument

Code: Select all

port.a = true;
digiline_send("1", "Hallo World!");
works well

@Pyrollo

I found a bug in your font_api plugin, which caused crashes on some strings. You can find the fix here:

Hi Spixi,

Thanks for the finding, actually the error was in Digimons mod. Problem due to line splitting not taking care of UTF8 long chars.
Just pushed a fixed version on github.

Changed mod's name :)

- New green monitor (exactly the same as amber except the color).
- Monitors can be switched on/off
- Fixed rotation on place

Yes, I've found one. Those prisms from Enterprise are very futuristic, unlike mobile phones they were not yet built in real life.

Good :)

It would be possible to add some... after a small evolution in Display_API.

My main concern is that prism is not very cube-ish :)

Hello,

Wich mod is the digiboard from ? I have no idea how it works.

(I plan to add some keyboards also anyway :) )

I guess this is a matter of setting the right digiline channel on both monitor and keyboard.

Ok, I found it.

Tested :
- Placed a digiboard, a monitor and a digiline connecting both
- right clicked on monitor and put "mon" as channel
- right clicked on digiboard and put "mon" as channel also
- right clicked on digiboard again and typed some text
The text displays as expected on monitor

I'm using mintest 0.4.17.1 + last versions of digilines / digiboards / digiterms

Your monitors look awesome, sadly they don't display the text properly:

I suspect a font-issue but haven't looked at it closer, any ideas?
