I've been meaning to fix this for over 6 years, and just kept forgetting. Previously ILuaContext.executeMainThreadTask worked by running ILuaContext.issueMainThreadTask, pulling task_complete events, and then returning the results. While this makes the implementation simple, it means that the task's results were converted into Lua values (in order to queue the event) and then back into Java ones (when the event was pulled), before eventually being converted into Lua once more. Not only is this inefficient, as roundtripping isn't lossless, you couldn't return functions or rich objects from main thread functions (see https://github.com/dan200/ComputerCraft/issues/125). We now store the return value on the Java side and then return that when the receiving the task_complete event - the event no longer carries the result. Note this does not affect methods using issueMainThreadTask!
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, do check out our forum and GitHub discussions page! 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("cc.tweaked")
includeModule("org.squiddev", "Cobalt")
}
}
}
dependencies {
// Vanilla (i.e. for multi-loader systems)
compileOnly("cc.tweaked:cc-tweaked-$mcVersion-common-api")
// Forge Gradle
compileOnly(fg.deobf("cc.tweaked:cc-tweaked-$mcVersion-forge-api:$cctVersion"))
runtimeOnly(fg.deobf("cc.tweaked:cc-tweaked-$mcVersion-forge:$cctVersion"))
// Fabric Loom
modCompileOnly("cc.tweaked:cc-tweaked-$mcVersion-fabric-api:$cctVersion")
modRuntimeOnly("cc.tweaked:cc-tweaked-$mcVersion-fabric:$cctVersion")
}
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.
