Like #455, this sets our uniforms via a UBO rather than having separate ones for each value. There are a couple of small differences: - Have a UBO for each monitor, rather than sharing one and rewriting it every monitor. This means we only need to update the buffer when the monitor changes. - Use std140 rather than the default layout. This means we don't have to care about location/stride in the buffer. Also like #455, this doesn't actually seem to result in any performance improvements for me. However, it does make it a bit easier to handle a large number of uniforms. Also cleans up the generation of the main monitor texture buffer: - Move buffer generation into a separate method - just ensures that it shows up separately in profilers. - Explicitly pass the position when setting bytes, rather than incrementing the internal one. This saves some memory reads/writes (I thought Java optimised them out, evidently not!). Saves a few fps when updating. - Use DSA when possible. Unclear if it helps at all, but nice to do :).
CC: Tweaked is a mod for Minecraft which adds programmable computers, turtles and more to the game. A fork of the much-beloved ComputerCraft, it continues its legacy with better performance, stability, and a wealth of new features.
CC: Tweaked can be installed from CurseForge or Modrinth. It requires the Minecraft Forge mod loader, but versions are available for Fabric.
Contributing
Any contribution is welcome, be that using the mod, reporting bugs or contributing code. If you want to get started developing the mod, check out the instructions here.
Community
If you need help getting started with CC: Tweaked, want to show off your latest project, or just want to chat about ComputerCraft we have a forum and Discord guild! There's also a fairly populated, albeit quiet IRC channel, if that's more your cup of tea.
We also host fairly comprehensive documentation at tweaked.cc.
Using
CC: Tweaked is hosted on my maven repo, and so is relatively simple to depend on. You may wish to add a soft (or hard)
dependency in your mods.toml file, with the appropriate version bounds, to ensure that API functionality you depend
on is present.
repositories {
maven {
url 'https://squiddev.cc/maven/'
content {
includeGroup 'org.squiddev'
}
}
}
dependencies {
implementation fg.deobf("org.squiddev:cc-tweaked-${mc_version}:${cct_version}")
}
You should also be careful to only use classes within the dan200.computercraft.api package. Non-API classes are
subject to change at any point. If you depend on functionality outside the API, file an issue, and we can look into
exposing more features.
We bundle the API sources with the jar, so documentation should be easily viewable within your editor. Alternatively, the generated documentation can be browsed online.
