Hello,

i was wondering if there is a possibility to run marquee or a writing program on a monitor forever. We started a server and everytime when someone isnt online or around the building the monitor shuts off. Is there a way to prevent that from happening?

Would be verry grateful if someone could help me out ^^

you cant prevent the computers to stop when nobody is on
just save your program as startup and have it save/load data from the last session

Wrong topic? Nice programs? I dunno. Haven't seen a program.

In case you never found a solution - in tekkit (not sure which part of it provides it) there are "Anchor" blocks that keep a chunk alive even if no ones around…

This could solve your issue if you have tekkit or you can find which piece gives you the block.


I had a similar issue with my turtles stopping :P/>/>
