Look, I originally had this split into several commits, but lots of
other cleanups got mixed in. I then backported some of the cleanups to
1.12, did other tidy ups there, and eventually the web of merges was
unreadable.
Yes, this is a horrible mess, but it's still nicer than it was. Anyway,
changes:
- Flatten everything. For instance, there are now three instances of
BlockComputer, two BlockTurtle, ItemPocketComputer. There's also no
more BlockPeripheral (thank heavens) - there's separate block classes
for each peripheral type.
- Remove pretty much all legacy code. As we're breaking world
compatibility anyway, we can remove all the code to load worlds from
1.4 days.
- The command system is largely rewriten to take advantage of 1.13's
new system. It's very fancy!
- WidgetTerminal now uses Minecraft's "GUI listener" system.
- BREAKING CHANGE: All the codes in keys.lua are different, due to the
move to LWJGL 3. Hopefully this won't have too much of an impact.
I don't want to map to the old key codes on the Java side, as there
always ends up being small but slight inconsistencies. IMO it's
better to make a clean break - people should be using keys rather
than hard coding the constants anyway.
- commands.list now allows fetching sub-commands. The ROM has already
been updated to allow fancy usage such as commands.time.set("noon").
- Turtles, modems and cables can be waterlogged.
This effectively acts as a public interface to canExecuteExternal() and
consumeTime(). It's hopefully sufficiently general that we can mess
around with the backend as much as we like in the future.
One thing to note here is that this is based on a polling API, as it's
largely intended for people running work every tick. It would be
possible to adapt this with callbacks for when work is available,
etc..., but that was not needed immediately.
This also removes IComputerOwned, as Plethora no longer needs it.
Unlike ComputerThread, we do not have a single source of tasks, and so
need a smarter way to handle scheduling and rate limiting. This
introduces a cooldown system, which works on both a global and
per-computer level:
Each computer is allowed to do some work for 5ms. If they go over that
budget, then they are marked as "hot", and will not execute work on the
next tick, until they have cooled down. This ensures that _on average_
computers perform at most 5ms of work per tick.
Obviously this is a rather large time span, so we also apply a global
10ms to all computers. This uses the same cooldown principle, meaning we
keep to an average of 10ms, even if we go over budget.
Oh goodness, when will it end?
- Computer errors are shown in red.
- Lua machine operations provide whether they succeeded, and an
optional error message (reason bios failed to load, timeout error,
another Lua error), which is then shown to the user.
- Clear the Cobalt "thrown soft abort" flag when resuming, rather than
every n instructions.
- Computers will clear their "should start" flag once the time has
expired, irrespective of whether it turned on or not. Before
computers would immediately restart after shutting down if the flag
had been set much earlier.
Errors within the Lua machine are displayed in a more friendly
- Move state management (turnOn, shutdown, etc...) event handling and
the command queue into a ComputerExecutor
- This means the computer thread now just handles running "work" on
computer executors, rather than managing a separate command queue +
requeuing it.
- Instead of setting soft/hard timeouts on the ILuaMachine, we instead
provide it with a TimeoutState instance. This holds the current abort
flags, which can then be polled within debug hooks.
This means the Lua machine has to do less state management, but also
allows a more flexible implementation of aborts.
- Soft aborts are now handled by the TimeoutState - we track when the
task was started, and now only need to check we're more than 7s since
then.
Note, these timers work with millisecond granularity, rather than
nano, as this invokes substantially less overhead.
- Instead of having n runners being observed with n managers, we now
have n runners and 1 manager (or Monitor).
The runners are now responsible for pulling work from the queue. When
the start to execute a task, they set the time execution commenced.
The monitor then just checks each runner every 0.1s and handles hard
aborts (or killing the thread if need be).
- Rename unload -> close to be a little more consistent
- Make pollAndResetChanged be atomic, so we don't need to aquire a lock
- Get the computer queue from the task owner, rather than a separate
argument.
Ideally we'd add a couple more tests in the future, but this'll do for
now.
The bootstrap class is largely yoinked from CCTweaks-Lua, so is a tad
ugly. It works though.
The Computer class currently has several resposiblities such as storing
id/label, managing redstone/peirpherals, handling management of the
computer (on/off/events) and updating the output.
In order to simplify this a little bit, we move our IAPIEnvironment
implementation into a separate file, and store all "world state"
(redstone + peripherals) in there. While we still need to have some
level of updating them within the main Computer instance, it's
substantially simpler.
There's several reasons for this change:
- Try to make ComputerCraft.java less monolithic by moving
functionality into separate module-specific classes.
- Hopefully make the core class less Minecraft dependent, meaning
emulators are a little less dependent on anything outside of /core.
Note we still need /some/ methods in the main ComputerCraft class in
order to maintain backwards compatibility with Plethora and
Computronics.
- Trackers are created per-user, meaning multiple people can run
/computercraft track at once.
- Allow sorting the tracking information by arbitrary fields.
- Add support for tracking arbitrary fields (though none are currently
implemented).
ILuaAPI has been moved to dan200.computercraft.api.lua. One creates
a new API by registering an instance of ILuaAPIFactory. This takes an
instance of IComputerSystem and returns such an API.
IComputerSystem is an extension of IComputerAccess, with methods to
access additional information about the the computer, such as its label
and filesystem.
Computer now delegates to IComputerEnvironment which, by default, looks
in the following locations:
- Resouce pack files
- The "debug" folder
- The original ComputerCraft jar
This will hopefully make it easier to track down various issues which
might otherwise go unnoticed or provide little information.
The main areas modified are those that external APIs may provide values
for or interact with: various providers and ILuaObject/IPeripheral
implementations. However, we do also log in a couple of other places
which indicate a problem with this, or another, mod.
