Starting out with Computer Craft

[frederikam]

Dan200 on Pahi-craft inspired me to try out Computer Craft, what is the best way to get started? I would also want to try some addons, if you have any suggestions.

BTW i already know some basics of Lua from some years ago.

you should check their wiki, they have lots of information on there.

I would have to agree with adib.

When ever starting a new mod always look at the wiki

Here is the CC wiki > http://computercraft.info/wiki/index.ph ... =Main_Page

No problem mate and also direwolf's video is also a good idea

 

[frederikam]

I already watched that, it was quite awesome, i would also like to know a little more Lua. Can't hurt.

I'd love to see somebody make a setup that used both redpower 2 computers, and computercraft computers, that comunicate via bundled cables and modems.

they also have an forum btw.

 

[adib]

people who use redpower 2 and computercraft at the same time... have a forum?

no i meant for frederikam, cc has an forum where are guides and such

As well as a lot of Lua code, yes i know that forum. Its good when you don't program/haven't learnt much Lua but still want to play with CC

Direwolf20 did some videos recently

 

[bluechance12]

Yeah. DW20 is currently doing a series of tutorials. They helped me, and I'm a complete noob, so I'm sure they will help you too!

I've found a few interesting tutorials and videos of interesting things on NitrogenFinger's channel on Youtube. Something about the idea of setting up email servers and things as such inside the game really appeal to me for some reason.

This is the most important resource when doing stuff in Lua: http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html

All you need is Chapter 2 and Chapter 5
