ICBM Map Monitor launching
Started by adamjan2000, 20 January 2015 - 12:52 PMPosted 20 January 2015 - 01:52 PM
How I could make map displayed on monitor, and launch rockets (from ICBM mod)into clicked point?

I've split your question into a new topic rather than reviving a two year old topic.

You could use
> monitor <side> paint
To paint an image of the map. As for interfacing with ICBM, I'm not sure of the information needed to launch the rockets.Posted 20 January 2015 - 04:02 PM
The original topic was this one, in case the previous discussion gives more insight into where the OP is coming from. Please don't post on it, anyone.

How can I load map to the screen of CC monitor, if it's in directory (this is only example of path) C:/Users/adam/AppData/Roaming/.minecraft/map.png?

Short answer: you can't.
Long answer: Two reasons
1) CC is sandboxed. The computers cannot reach anything that isn't inside their specific folder.
2) CC doesn't know how to deal with png files. It could be possible to do, if you created a parser for it.

ok, so i have 2 questions:
1. Is it picture in .bmp or .jpg good?
2. Is it a way to read coordinates of clicked point on screen as coordinates, which are connected with point in overworld?

1 - I believe someone has made a .bmp converter, not sure about .jpg
2 - Sure, check here.

What's that "side"? It's needed, when i have monitor on the corner?
How I can change string to number, needed to setTarget(x, y, z) command?
How big coordinates can I get, if I'll click to right down corner of screen 3x3?

The monitor should be adjacent to a side of the computer. If you have only one monitor connected, you don't need to check this variable - it's purely for determining which monitor was touched if you have multiple.
Changing string to number is easy, just call tonumber() on it. A simple script to get a number from the user:
To measure the max size of your monitor, use this.

until num

local mon = peripheral.wrap( "side" ) --#side is where monitor is attached
mon.setTextScale( 0.5 )
local x, y = mon.getSize()
print( x )
print( y )

So, is it this program good?
If there is something missing, could you write it?
I'll be very grateful

local mon = peripheral.wrap("left") - monitor on the left
local launcher = peripheral.wrap("right") - launch console on the right
local image = paintutils.loadImage("map")
paintutils.drawImage(image, 0, 0)
event, side, xPos, yPos = os.pullEvent("monitor_touch")
xPos=xPos*50+100 - depends for map
yPos=yPos*25+100 - depends for map
launcher.setTarget(xPos, 0, yPos) - setting coordinates of rocket
launcher.launch() - launching

They only problem I see is where you are drawing the map - the upper-left pixel isn't (0,0) it's (1, 1)
Not sure why you're multiplying and adding xPos/yPos.
I'd also put everthing from os.pullEvent() on into a while true do … end loop, so it can be used more than once without restarting the program.

Is it better?
This multiplying and adding is needed to adapt map to the screen
Is there any way to load specified rocked into missle silo (the best option will be, in my
opinion, list of species of rockets, which can be show after click on a map)?

That's indeed what I was getting at. I don't know much anything about the peripheral you are using (the launcher), so I have no idea what you can do with it.
If you are using CC 1.63+ and a turtle you might be able to simply turtle.drop() the item in.

Ok, but how program list of rockets on the monitor and send good order to turtle?
Posted 23 January 2015 - 06:54 PM
Put them in a table, according to slots in the turtle.
Ei:
Then to display
As for click detection, you can easily check the y against the table, then use rednet to send the number to the turtle. The turtle will simply be waiting for a rednet message, then selecting a slot and dropping one item from that slot.
Ei:
local rockets = {
[1] = "rocket_type",
[2] = "rocket_type",
[3] = "rocket_type",
}
Then to display
for k, v in pairs( rockets ) do
term.setCursorPos( 1, k )
term.write( v )
end

Will it work?
local mon = peripheral.wrap("left")
local launcher = peripheral.wrap("right")
local image = paintutils.loadImage("map")
local rockets = {
[1] = "rocket_type",
[2] = "rocket_type",
[3] = "rocket_type",
}
local a=1
local b=1
while true do
paintutils.drawImage(image, 1, 1)
event, side, xPos, yPos = os.pullEvent("monitor_touch")
a=xPos*50+100
b=yPos*25+100
launcher.setTarget(a, 0, B)/>
clear
print("Do you really want to launch?")
setCursorPos(1,2)
print("yes")
setCursorPos(1,3)
print("no")
event, side, xPos, yPos = os.pullEvent("monitor_touch")
if yPos=2 then
launcher.launch()
end
