Speakers now play sounds using a custom set of packets.
- When playing a sound, we send the resource id, position, volume,
pitch and a UUID for the _speaker_ to all nearby clients.
- This UUID is then used when we need to update the sound. When the
speaker is moved or destroyed, we send a new packet to clients and
update accordingly.
This does have one side effect, that speakers can now only play one
sound at a time. I think this is accceptable - otherwise it's possible
to spam ward in a loop.
Notes still use the old networking code, and so will not be affected.
Closes#823
- Allow help files to use the ".md" suffix, and move changelog/whatsnew
to use them.
- When files end with ".md", the "help" program attempts to highlight
them. This involves:
- Colour code blocks with a lightGrey background.
- Replace lists to use bullet points instead of "-"/"*".
- Colours headings yellow.
The implementation of this is a bit janky because a) I wrote this and
b) we need to run this step before text wrapping, but preserve
colours and section positions over wrapping (thanks to Jack for
getting this working).
- Add section navigation to the help viewer, with left/right to move to
the next/previous section.
Closes#569
Adds a sidebar to the computer and turtle GUI. This currently provides
- A power indicator, which turns on/shuts down a computer.
- Button to queue a "terminate" event
I've written three or four integrations with bundled cables now over the
various versions, and I'm still not convinced this one is right. It
appears to work though, so we'll see.
We need depend on the main jar here (rather than the API jar), as
otherwise our javadoc tools fails - the API references some internal
classes which aren't on our classpath.
It might be nice to write tests for this (and CT) in the future -
goodness knows these features are fragile - but that'll require some
more gradle work which I don't want to do right now.
Closes#772
- Move registry code into the various *Registry classes.
I'm not sure this is any more sensible, but things being registered
in different places kinda irked me.
- Everything else (i.e. event listeners) goes in a {Client,Common}Hooks
class right now. It's not ideal, but I don't think we can split it up
much.
- Fix double updateOutput() call in TileComputerBase - I guess a
merge/rebase gone wrong in the past.
- Don't call updateBlock() when creating a server computer. This used
to be needed when we sent the computer to the client, but this is no
longer the case.
- Don't call updateBlock() on TileMonitors when updating from the
client. We don't need to do a redraw here, as this is all stored in
the block state now.
- Don't update the block when reading turtle upgrades. See #643 for
some background here.
See #658
- Return a more sensible string for empty treasure disks (i.e. those
given by /give). This should help identify packs which are giving
items in non-supported ways.
- Fix NPE when the treasure mount doesn't exist.
Fixes#801
- Simplify how the turtle's inventory is processed. We now copy all
items into the player inventory, attempt to place, and then copy the
items back.
This also fixes the problem where turtle.place() wouldn't (always)
update the item which was placed.
I'm also hoping this is more "correct" in how we process drops from
entities and whatnot. Though I've not had any reports of issues, so
it's probably fine.
- Replace the "error message" string array with an actual object. It'd
be nicer all these functions returned a TurtleCommandResult, but
merging error messages from that is a little harder.
Fun facts: the test suite was actually helpful here, and caught the fact
that hoeing was broken!
Implementation is a little awkward, as we can't send OPEN_FILE links
from the server, so we ensure the client runs a
/computercraft open-computer ID command instead. We then intercept this
on the client side and use that to open the folder.

using "optipng -o7 -strip all". I ran this a few years ago and had some
issues, but aren't seeing any problems now. I don't know if this is a
graphics card change, or just optipng fixed some bugs.
These are fairly minimal changes, but hopefully save a few bytes!
- Remove the service provider code and require people to explicitly
register these. This is definitely more ugly, but easier than people
pulling in AutoService or similar!
- Add an API for registering capabilities.
- Expand the doc comments a little. Not sure how useful they'll be, but
let's see!
There's still so much work to be done on this, but it's a "good enough"
first step.
This way we still get some differences between files and folders on
normal computers. I did try with just green, but I think the contrast is
too low.
Closes#656
Unlike short handles, we don't read these immediately, and so we can't
close it right away. Otherwise the file is considered empty!

This uses pre-commit [1] to check patches are well formed and run
several linters on them. We currently do some boring things (check files
are syntactically valid) as well as some project-specific ones:
- Run illuaminate on the Lua files
- Run checkstyle on Java

These are largely copied across from Cobalt's test suite, with some
minor tweaks. It actually exposed one bug in Cobalt, which is pretty
nice.
One interesting thing from the coroutine tests, is that Lua 5.4 (and
one assumes 5.2/5.3) doesn't allow yielding from within the error
handler of xpcall - I rather thought it might.
This doesn't add any of the PUC Lua tests yet - I got a little
distracted.
Also:
- Allow skipping "keyword" tests, in the style of busted. This is
implemented on the Java side for now.
- Fix a bug with os.date("%I", _) not being 2 characters wide.
- Don't treat turtles/pocket computers with no upgrades as an "any"
turtle. Otherwise getting the recipe of a crafty turtle shows the
recipe of a normal turtle too.
- Fix "get usage" of upgrade items not returning their recipes.
- Fix NPEs inside JEI (closes#719)
- Add remaining docs for the turtle API
- Add documentation for the fluid storage peripheral.
- Enforce undocumented warning for most modules (only io and window
remaining).
"Finish" in quotes, because these are clearly a long way from perfect.
I'm bad at writing docs, OK!
Fixes#701 (well, hopefully). Our BlockModelProvider is created when
running other mods' data generators (thought not run), which causes
issues as none of the models are considered as "existing files".
We send monitor updates when a player starts watching a chunk. However,
the block/tile data has not been sent when this event is fired, and so
the packet is entirely ignored.
Instead, we now queue a "send this" task, which is then dispatched on
the next tick end.
I have memories of this working on 1.12, so either something changed in
an update or I'm a complete idiot. Both are possible.
Fixes#687
Building against 1.16.4 for now to ensure we don't break it. Hopefully
we can bump this too once most people have migrated.
Will push a release tomorrow - don't want to be sorting out merge
conflicts at 23:30.
More importantly, `./gradlew check' actually runs the in-game tests,
which makes the CI steps look a little more sensible again.
Somewhat depressing that one of the longest files (15th) in CC:T is the
build script.
This probably fails "responsible disclosure", but it's not an RCE and
frankly the whole bug is utterly hilarious so here we are...
It's possible to open a file on a disk drive and continue to read/write
to them after the disk has been removed:
local disk = peripheral.find("drive")
local input = fs.open(fs.combine(disk.getMountPath(), "stream"), "rb")
local output = fs.open(fs.combine(disk.getMountPath(), "stream"), "wb")
disk.ejectDisk()
-- input/output can still be interacted with.
This is pretty amusing, as now it allows us to move the disk somewhere
else and repeat - we've now got a private tunnel which two computers can
use to communicate.
Fixing this is intuitively quite simple - just close any open files
belonging to this mount. However, this is where things get messy thanks
to the wonderful joy of how CC's streams are handled.
As things stand, the filesystem effectively does the following flow::
- There is a function `open : String -> Channel' (file modes are
irrelevant here).
- Once a file is opened, we transform it into some <T extends
Closeable>. This is, for instance, a BufferedReader.
- We generate a "token" (i.e. FileSystemWrapper<T>), which we generate
a week reference to and map it to a tuple of our Channel and T. If
this token is ever garbage collected (someone forgot to call close()
on a file), then we close our T and Channel.
- This token and T are returned to the calling function, which then
constructs a Lua object.
The problem here is that if we close the underlying Channel+T before the
Lua object calls .close(), then it won't know the underlying channel is
closed, and you get some pretty ugly errors (e.g. "Stream Closed"). So
we've moved the "is open" state into the FileSystemWrapper<T>.
The whole system is incredibly complex at this point, and I'd really
like to clean it up. Ideally we could treat the HandleGeneric as the
token instead - this way we could potentially also clean up
FileSystemWrapperMount.
BBut something to play with in the future, and not when it's 10:30pm.

All this wall of text, and this isn't the only bug I've found with disks
today :/.
Name a more iconic duo than @SquidDev and over-engineered test
frameworks.
This uses Minecraft's test core[1] plus a home-grown framework to run
tests against computers in-world.
The general idea is:
- Build a structure in game.
- Save the structure to a file. This will be spawned in every time the
test is run.
- Write some code which asserts the structure behaves in a particular
way. This is done in Kotlin (shock, horror), as coroutines give us a
nice way to run asynchronous code while still running on the main
thread.
As with all my testing efforts, I still haven't actually written any
tests! It'd be good to go through some of the historic ones and write
some tests though. Turtle block placing and computer redstone
interactions are probably a good place to start.

ForgeGradle (probably sensibly) yells at me about doing this. However:
- There's a reasonable number of mods doing this, which establishes
some optimistic precedent.
- The licence update in Aug 2020 now allows you to use them for
"development purposes". I guess source code counts??
- I'm fairly sure this is also compatible with the CCPL - there's an
exception for Minecraft code.
The main motivation for this is to make the Fabric port a little
easier. Hopefully folks (maybe me in the future, we'll see) will no
longer have to deal with mapping hell when merging - only mod loader
hell.
.getMethods() may throw if a method references classes which don't exist
(such as client-only classes on a server). This is an Error, and so is
unchecked - hence us not handling it before.
Fixes#645
- Fix doc library-path
- Only style <pre> code blocks as executable. Skip <code> ones.
- Document the default parameters in gps. Yes, we should do it
everywhere, but one has to start somewhere!
This has been broken for almost a year (28th Jan 2020), and I never
noticed. Good job me.
Fixes#641, closes#648 (basically the same, but targetting 1.15.x)
I knew I shouldn't do modding on things which aren't my main computer.
I actually did run checkstyleMain before committing, but entirely forgot
about this one. Go me.
- Move some common upgrade code to IUpgradeBase. 99% sure this this
preserves binary compatibility (on the JVM at least).
- Instead of requiring the share tag to match, allow upgrades to
specify their own predicate. IMO this is a little ugly, but required
to fix#614 as other mods chuck their own NBT on items.
- Remove incorrect impostor recipes for pocket computers. We were
generating them from the list of turtle upgrades instead!
- Fix JEI plugin not blocking impostor recipes as of the data-generator
rewrite.
As explained in the comment, "built-in" rendering types are now manually
rendered ("finish"ed) before calling finish() on the main renderer. This
means our depth blocker hasn't actually been drawn (if a monitor is the
last TE to be rendered), and so blocks pass the depth test when they
shouldn't.
Fixes#599
Maybe the capability system was a mistake in retrospect, as we don't
store the peripheral outside, so there's no way to reuse it. That will
probably come in a later change.
As a smaller fix, we pass the invalidate listener directly. The lifetime
of this is the same as the computer, so we don't create a new one each
time.
There's still the potential to leak memory if people break/replace a
computer (as listeners aren't removed), but that's an unavoidable flaw
with capabilities.
Fixes#593
I'm getting quite addicted to this. Maybe less savings than monitors,
but still worth doing due to the number of files created.
Also fix our angle calculations for monitors. Thankfully we hadn't
shipped this yet :).
Means we can now do fs.combine("a", "b", "c"). Of course, one may just
write "a/b/c" in this case, but it's definitely useful elsewhere.
This is /technically/ a breaking change as fs.combine(a, b:gsub(...))
will no longer function (as gsub returns multiple arguments). However,
I've done a quick search through GH and my Pastebin archives and can't
find any programs which would break. Fingers crossed.
A little dubious, but apparently CC used to support it. This means we're
consistent with methods like io.write or string.len which accept strings
or numbers.
Fixes#591
Provides a basic interface for running examples on tweaked.cc. This is probably
janky as anything, but it works on my machine.
This is the culmination of 18 months of me building far too much infrastructure
(copy-cat, illuaminate), so that's nice I guess.
I should probably get out more.
I didn't think it was worth it, and then I found myself needing to
update a dozen of them. The code isn't especially pretty, but it works,
so that's fine.
Also fixes several issues with us using the wrong texture (closes#572).
I've put together a wiki page[1] which describes each texture in a
little more detail.
[1] https://github.com/SquidDev-CC/CC-Tweaked/wiki/Monitor-texture-reference
When we construct a new ServerPlayerEntity (and thus TurtlePlayer), we
get the current (global) advancement state and call .setPlayer() on it.
As grantCriterion blocks FakePlayers from getting advancements, this
means a player will no longer receive any advancements, as the "wrong"
player object is being consulted.
As a temporary work around, we attempt to restore the previous player to
the advancement store. I'll try to upstream something into Forge to
resolve this properly.
Fixes#564
This is a long way away from "feature complete" as it were. However,
it's definitely at a point where it's suitable for general usage - I'm
happy with the API, and don't think I'm going to be breaking things any
time soon.
That said, things aren't exposed yet for Java-side public consumption. I
was kinda waiting until working on Plethora to actually do that, but not
sure if/when that'll happen.
If someone else wants to work on an integration mod (or just adding
integrations for their own mod), do get in touch and I can work out how
to expose this.
Closes#452
Minecraft propagates "strong" redstone signals (such as those directly
from comparators or repeaters) through solid blocks. This includes
computers, which is a little annoying as it means one cannot feed
redstone wire from one side and a repeater from another.
This changes computers to not propagate strong redstone signals, in the
same way transparent blocks like glass do.
Closes#548.
The HTTP filtering system becomes even more complex! Though in this
case, it's pretty minimal, and definitely worth doing.
For instance, the following rule will allow connecting to localhost on
port :8080.
[[http.rules]]
host = "127.0.0.1"
port = 8080
action = "allow"
# Other rules as before.
Closes#540
I hope the Fabric folks now realise this is gonna be a race of who can
update first :p. Either way, this was a very easy update - only changes
were due to unrelated Forge changes.
Doesn't fix#515 (arguably makes it worse in the sense that it's more
likely to throw). However it should provide better error reporting, and
make it more clear that it's not CC:T's fault.
It appears I had failed to update this when last bumping the Forge
version. Closes#521 - we're relying on a feature only added in Forge
31.1.16, and they're using 3.1.14.
Control characters become escaped as JSON requires
Non-ASCII characters get escaped as well for better interoperability
We assume here that lua strings represent only first 256 code points of unicode
We can just scrape them from the @AutoService annotation, which saves us
having to duplicate any work. Hopefully fixes#501, but I haven't tested
in a non-dev environment yet.
When dealing with invalid paths (for instance, ones which are too long
or malformed), Java may throw a FileSystemException. This contains the
absolute path (i.e. C:/Users/Moi/.../.minecraft/...), which is printed
to the user within CC - obviously not ideal!
We simply catch this exception within the MountWrapper and map it back
to the local path. The disadvantage of doing it here is that we can't
map the path in the exception back to the computer - we'd need to catch
it in FileMount for that - so we just assume it referrs to the original
path instead.
Doing it in FileMount ends up being a little uglier, as we already do
all the exception wrangling in FileWrapper, so this'll do for now.
Fixes#495
It's no longer possible to implement this on the tile, due to the
conflict in getType. Given this is a really bad idea, it's not a big
issue, but we should mention it in the documentation.
Fixes#496.
A lot is broken, but at least we can get in game:
- GUIs render a whole bunch of additional "inventory" text, which we
really don't want.
- Computers load from the wrong location.
- There's some issues with using Forge's tags from outside of JSON
recipes. We need to work out why.
This PR adds some documentation for APIs that did not have docs in the
source yet. This includes the:
* drive peripheral
* FS API
* OS PAI
* printer peripheral
* speaker peripheral
illuaminate does not handle Java files, for obvious reasons. In order to
get around that, we have a series of stub files within /doc/stub which
mirrored the Java ones. While this works, it has a few problems:
- The link to source code does not work - it just links to the stub
file.
- There's no guarantee that documentation remains consistent with the
Java code. This change found several methods which were incorrectly
documented beforehand.
We now replace this with a custom Java doclet[1], which extracts doc
comments from @LuaFunction annotated methods and generates stub-files
from them. These also contain a @source annotation, which allows us to
correctly link them back to the original Java code.
There's some issues with this which have yet to be fixed. However, I
don't think any of them are major blockers right now:
- The custom doclet relies on Java 9 - I think it's /technically/
possible to do this on Java 8, but the API is significantly uglier.
This means that we need to run javadoc on a separate JVM.
This is possible, and it works locally and on CI, but is definitely
not a nice approach.
- illuaminate now requires the doc stubs to be generated in order for
the linter to pass, which does make running the linter locally much
harder (especially given the above bullet point).
We could notionally include the generated stubs (or at least a cut
down version of them) in the repo, but I'm not 100% sure about that.
[1]: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/jdk/javadoc/doclet/package-summary.html
- Refer to this as "data" rather than "metadata". I'm still not sure
where the meta came from - blame OpenPeripheral I guess.
- Likewise, use getItemDetail within inventory methods, rather than
getItemMeta.
- Refactor common data-getting code into one class. This means that
turtle.getItemDetail, turtle.inspect and commands.getBlockInfo all
use the same code.
- turtle.getItemDetail now accepts a second "detailed" parameter which
will include the full metadata (#471, #452).
- Tags are now only included in the detailed list. This is a breaking
change, however should only affect one version (1.89.x) and I'm not
convinced that the previous behaviour was safe.
This allows for configuring the size of computers and pocket computers,
as well as the max size of monitors.
There's several limitations with the current implementation, but it's
still "good enough" for an initial release:
- Turtles cannot be resized.
- GUIs do not scale themselves, so "large" sizes will not render within
the default resolution.
This exposes a basic peripheral for any tile entity which does not have methods
already registered. We currently provide the following methods:
- Inventories: size, list, getItemMeta, pushItems, pullItems.
- Energy storage: getEnergy, getEnergyCapacity
- Fluid tanks: tanks(), pushFluid, pullFluid.
These methods are currently experimental - it must be enabled through
`experimental.generic_peripherals`. While this is an initial step towards
implementing #452, but is by no means complete.
Well, mostly. We currently don't do recipe serializers as I'm a little
too lazy. For items, blocks and TE types this does make registration
nicer - we've some helper functions which help reduce duplication.
Some types (containers, TEs, etc..) are a little less nice, as we now
must define the registry object (i.e. the WhateverType<?>) in a separate
class to the class it constructs. However, it's probably a worthwhile
price to pay.
No clue how we're going to do this for the dynamic peripheral system
if/when that ships, but this is a good first stage.
Like the Java APIs, this relies on stub files, so we can't link to the
implementation which is a bit of a shame. However, it's a good first
step.
I'm really not very good at this modding lark am I? I've done a basic
search for other missing methods, and can't see anything, but goodness
knows.

When calling .flip(), we limit the size of the buffer. However, this
limit is not reset when writing the next time, which means we get
out-of-bounds errors, even if the buffer is /technically/ big enough.
Clearing the buffer before drawing (rather than just resetting the
position) is enough to fix this.
Fixes#476 (and closes#477, which is a duplicate)
We never added back replacing of ${version} strings, which means that CC
was reporting incorrect version numbers in _HOST, the user agent and
network versions. This meant we would allow connections even on
mismatched versions (#464).
We shift all version handling into ComputerCraftAPI(Impl) - this now
relies on Forge code, so we don't want to run it in emulators.
- Strip any gui._.config options. These haven't been used since 1.12
and while they may return, it doesn't seem worth it right now.
- Fix a couple of typos in the English translations.
- Import from https://i18n.tweaked.cc. There's definitely some problems
with the import - empty translations are still included, so we write
a script to strip them.
This is simply exposed as a table from tag -> true. While this is less
natural than an array, it allows for easy esting of whether a tag is
present.
Closes#461
- Use texture over texture2D - the latter was deprecated in GLSL 1.30.
- Cache the tbo buffer - this saves an allocation when monitors update.
Closes#455. While the rest of the PR has some nice changes, it
performs signlificantly worse on my system.
This moves monitor networking into its own packet, rather than serialising
using NBT. This allows us to be more flexible with how monitors are
serialised.
We now compress terminal data using gzip. This reduces the packet size
of a max-sized-monitor from ~25kb to as little as 100b.
On my test set of images (what I would consider to be the extreme end of
the "reasonable" case), we have packets from 1.4kb bytes up to 12kb,
with a mean of 6kb. Even in the worst case, this is a 2x reduction in
packet size.
While this is a fantastic win for the common case, it is not abuse-proof.
One can create a terminal with high entropy (and so uncompressible). This
will still be close to the original packet size.
In order to prevent any other abuse, we also limit the amount of monitor
data a client can possibly receive to 1MB (configurable).
timetout, max_upload, max_download and max_websocket_message may now be
configured on a domain-by-domain basis. This uses the same system that
we use for the block/allow-list from before:
Example:
[[http.rules]]
host = "*"
action = "allow"
max_upload = 4194304
max_download = 16777216
timeout = 30000
This registers IPeripheral as a capability. As a result, all (Minecraft
facing) functionality operates using LazyOptional<_>s instead.
Peripheral providers should now return a LazyOptional<IPeripheral> too.
Hopefully this will allow custom peripherals to mark themselves as
invalid (say, because a dependency has changed).
While peripheral providers are somewhat redundant, they still have their
usages. If a peripheral is applied to a large number of blocks (for
instance, all inventories) then using capabilities does incur some
memory overhead.
We also make the following changes based on the above:
- Remove the default implementation for IWiredElement, migrating the
definition to a common "Capabilities" class.
- Remove IPeripheralTile - we'll exclusively use capabilities now.
Absurdly this is the most complex change, as all TEs needed to be
migrated too.
I'm not 100% sure of the correctness of this changes so far - I've
tested it pretty well, but blocks with more complex peripheral logic
(wired/wireless modems and turtles) are still a little messy.
- Remove the "command block" peripheral provider, attaching a
capability instead.
When creating a peripheral or custom Lua object, one must implement two
methods:
- getMethodNames(): String[] - Returns the name of the methods
- callMethod(int, ...): Object[] - Invokes the method using an index in
the above array.
This has a couple of problems:
- It's somewhat unwieldy to use - you need to keep track of array
indices, which leads to ugly code.
- Functions which yield (for instance, those which run on the main
thread) are blocking. This means we need to spawn new threads for
each CC-side yield.
We replace this system with a few changes:
- @LuaFunction annotation: One may annotate a public instance method
with this annotation. This then exposes a peripheral/lua object
method.
Furthermore, this method can accept and return a variety of types,
which often makes functions cleaner (e.g. can return an int rather
than an Object[], and specify and int argument rather than
Object[]).
- MethodResult: Instead of returning an Object[] and having blocking
yields, functions return a MethodResult. This either contains an
immediate return, or an instruction to yield with some continuation
to resume with.
MethodResult is then interpreted by the Lua runtime (i.e. Cobalt),
rather than our weird bodgey hacks before. This means we no longer
spawn new threads when yielding within CC.
- Methods accept IArguments instead of a raw Object array. This has a
few benefits:
- Consistent argument handling - people no longer need to use
ArgumentHelper (as it doesn't exist!), or even be aware of its
existence - you're rather forced into using it.
- More efficient code in some cases. We provide a Cobalt-specific
implementation of IArguments, which avoids the boxing/unboxing when
handling numbers and binary strings.
- cc.pretty.pretty now accepts two additional options:
- function_args: Show function arguments
- function_source: Show where functions are defined.
- Expose the two options as lua.* settings (defaulting function_args to
true, and function_source to false).
These are then used in the Lua REPL.
Closes#361
- Use jacoco for Java-side coverage. Our Java coverage is /terrible
(~10%), as we only really test the core libraries. Still a good thing
to track for regressions though.
- mcfly now tracks Lua side coverage. This works in several stages:
- Replace loadfile to include the whole path
- Add a debug hook which just tracks filename->(lines->count). This
is then submitted to the Java test runner.
- On test completion, we emit a luacov.report.out file.
As the debug hook is inserted by mcfly, this does not include any
computer startup (such as loading apis, or the root of bios.lua),
despite they're executed.
This would be possible to do (for instance, inject a custom header
into bios.lua). However, we're not actually testing any of the
behaviour of startup (aside from "does it not crash"), so I'm not
sure whether to include it or not. Something I'll most likely
re-evaluate.
`local varname = value` results in `varname` being inaccessible in
the next REPL input. This is often unintended and can lead to confusing
behaviour. We produce a warning when this occurs.
This uses the system described in #409, to render monitors in a more
efficient manner.
Each monitor is backed by a texture buffer object (TBO) which contains
a relatively compact encoding of the terminal state. This is then
rendered using a shader, which consumes the TBO and uses it to index
into main font texture.
As we're transmitting significantly less data to the GPU (only 3 bytes
per character), this effectively reduces any update lag to 0. FPS appears
to be up by a small fraction (10-15fps on my machine, to ~110), possibly
as we're now only drawing a single quad (though doing much more work in
the shader).
On my laptop, with its Intel integrated graphics card, I'm able to draw
120 full-sized monitors (with an effective resolution of 3972 x 2330) at
a consistent 60fps. Updates still cause a slight spike, but we always
remain above 30fps - a significant improvement over VBOs, where updates
would go off the chart.
Many thanks to @Lignum and @Lemmmy for devising this scheme, and helping
test and review it! ♥
Unknown blit colours, such as " " will be translated to black for the
background or white for the foreground. This restores the behaviour from
before #412.
- Write to a PacketBuffer instead of generating an NBT tag. This is
then converted to an NBT byte array when we send across the network.
- Pack background/foreground colours into a single byte.
This derives from some work I did back in 2017, and some of the changes
made/planned in #409. However, this patch does not change how terminals
are represented, it simply makes the transfer more compact.
This makes the patch incredibly small (100 lines!), but also limited in
what improvements it can make compared with #409. We send 26626 bytes
for a full-sized monitor. While a 2x improvement over the previous 58558
bytes, there's a lot of room for improvement.
This functions the same as shell.run, but does not tokenise the
arguments. This allows us to pass command line arguments through to
another program without having to re-quote them.
Closes#417
- Remove the parenthesis around the text (so it's now
"Computer ID: 12"), rather than "(Computer ID: 12").
- Show the tooltip if the computer has an ID and no label (as well as
when in advanced mode).
- Lint references to unknown fields of modules, excluding the keys and
colours modules. This caught several silly errors in our stub files,
but nothing else.
- Lint on using unknown globals. This highlighted a couple of really
silly mistakes. Fixes#427.
- Add documentation for fs.attributes, fs.getCapacity and pocket, as
they were not defined before.

- I'm excluding pocket computers, as they have such a tiny screen I'm
not sure the screen estate is worth it.
Pocket computers /generally/ aren't people's starter machine, so I
think this is fine.
- Prune the motd list, and try to make them a little shorter. I think
this list is more of the interesting ones. We can modify this list in
the future, as we get more feedback.[^1]
- Also fix paint/edit not adding an extension when they should. This
was caused by the settings rewrite, as the explicitly provided
default shadowed the one provided by bios.lua.
[^1]: ~5 months ago I asked for some feedback about enabling motds by
default. I only got something constructive back today >_>.
