CC-Tweaked VS OpenComputers

My main passion right now is working with the ComputerCraft mod for Minecraft, which adds a flexible Lua-based fantasy terminal to the game. I'm most known for CraftOS-PC, a cross-platform desktop and mobile C++ app which recreates the ComputerCraft environment outside Minecraft. I'm currently working on writing an operating system for it called Phoenix, which aims to implement a full-fledged POSIX/Linux-like environment all in Lua.

For those that don't know, CC:Tweaked is the sucessor of ComputerCraft, a fabulous mod for Java Minecraft that adds computers that runs a Lua VM and are able to run programs, interact with some blocks and do redstone stuff. Also it add "mobile" computers/robots aka Turtles that have everything computers do plus they are mobile and can break and place blocks in the world. For large scale building and intricate redstone projects this is a must have mod.

A better and updated version of the wiki is at https://tweaked.cc

if you want some documentation for all the bits and pieces there is https://tweaked.cc/

LDoc isn't really meant for this, but you can generate on each file individually and then hack in links with some post-processing. Alternatively, if you have the time to dig into an even less documented format, illuaminate natively supports multi-file docs. (See here for an example config file.)

Oh dear, I hadn't quite appreciated how confusing this was. There's an open issue to make the fact that the file is read-only a little more obvious - I will bump that up my priority list.

Known issue that a fair amount of people have been reporting (in discord as well).

For all CC specific things, the CC: Tweaked docs found here are very very useful. You can check out the turtle, redstone, and fs APIs here (listed in the sidebar under "Globals") if you want more precise info than what tutorials are able to give you.

The major issue on the road to newer MC versions is LWJGL upgrade from 2 to 3, among some other issues. There is a pull request for 1.16.5: https://github.com/MightyPirates/OpenComputers/pull/3572

There is an ongoing attempt to port the mod to 1.16.5 https://github.com/MightyPirates/OpenComputers/pull/3572

You can get them on Github. Use the topmost entry with a green checkmark.

If you're on an older version you might be being affected by this bug.

The OpenComputers Forums have a lot of programs, some of which may be useful for you. You can also ask for help there.

now, if you write component.redstone.setOutput(0, 15)that will output a signal redstone of 15 to the bottom face of the Redstone I/O, also it will print to the last value of the redstone signal, in this case that will be 0 for default.
