I checked the wiki, just for giggles, and noticed that the peripherals API is in 1.3. I don't see any peripherals created yet. Why is this?

Isn't disk drive a peripheral?
And turtle itself.
And comp may be…

That's true, but they're talking about the ability to create custom ones, which isn't officially out yet.

A disk drive would count, but the computer and turtle are considered host devices. Things peripherals connect to.

turtle is actually recognized as peripheral ;)/>/> Just to make it more complicated :mellow:/>/>

Comp is able to turn on nearby turtle as peripheral.

CC Code Speaking: Turtle/Disk-Drive/Computer are all peripherals.

The official doc will be out soon enough (1.31 hopefully) than you'll see a lot more users attempting to make peripherals.

yeah, that'd be nice, I'd like to see how you actually code these things.

Technically the modem is a peripheral. Look in the RedNet code if you don't believe me :mellow:/>/>

I guess it's time to sharpen my java skills.

I also can't wait for the 1.31 release with the modding API so i can add computercraft support to my infestation mod and some new stuff ( http://www.minecraft...-300-downloads/ ) keep up the good work! :mellow:/>/>

once cc 1.31 is out, there is at least 1 peripheral that is going to be released: ccSensors.
ccSensors in a nutshell is a framework of sensors to bring mc world values into cc lua programs..
those values can be as simple as light level,isRaining,isDay to more complex ones such as buildcraft engine heat,fuel quantity and energy or IndustrialCraft2 Reactor heat,energy , contents…

some sample screens: http://imgur.com/a/XW2A6#0


currently SSP only - i hope i'll be able to add SMP support close to the release.
