CC: Drones+

Drones for CC: Tweaked

A fork of CC: Drones, Originally created by JSJBDEV

currently drones can:

• Go forward (using drone.engineOn(true))
• Turn (using drone.left(number) and drone.right(number))
• Go up and down (using drone.up(number) and drone.down(number))
• Look forward and back (drone.lookForward() drone.lookBack())
• See the Drones rotation (drone.rotation())
• See if the drone is colliding (drone.isColliding())
• Turn the drones hover function on (drone.hoverOn(true))

Drone Upgrades:

Mining Upgrade:

• Mine forward (drone.breakForward())

Carry Upgrade:

• Pick up blocks (and keep there data) below (drone.pickupBlock())
• Drop the block (drone.dropBlock())
• Pick up entities below (drone.pickUpEntity())
• Drop the entity below (drone.dropEntity())

Modem Upgrade:

• Get the drone's pos (drone.getPos())

Recipes

For recipes, refer download a recipe viewer mod, rather that be JEI, REI or EMI

Programming

using the Drone Workbench as a peripheral you can use two commands, Or you can craft the Drone Controller.

(let a be the wrap e.g a = peripheral.wrap("left"))

• a.api() will reboot the computer after installing the drone api for ease of programming
• a.export(path) will take the lua program at path and send it to the first drone within 2 blocks of the workbench, this will then reboot the drone and start it executing

NOTE: as of 0.3.0, this section is talking about a deprecated feature.

Further development

There are a few things I want to add, but I don't know when (or how) I'll add them:

• Drones survey environments, this data can be reviewed in a holographic display
• Drone cameras (like spectator mode)
• Drone chunk loaders
• Drone shields (maybe running on energy? would need a drone charger), possibly combat (so a weapon of sorts)
• Drone upgrade system, similar to Steve's Carts 2 (sided upgrades)
• possibly block and entity sensor (might be survery, might not be)

Note

This is a passion project, and a development build, I do not know when I will work on this, but if I don't update for a while, just know, its not abandoned.
