Posted March 1, 20178 yr I am working on a robot mod that adds robots that interact with nearby inventories. I am kind of stuck with this however. What I would like to do is have the players program the behaviors of the robots into an item (using a drag and drop interface maybe) that could be dropped into the robot's (or controller of a multiblock) gui. I am trying to wrap my head around how I would implement this. Any ideas? I was thinking I could save Json to the nbt of an item stack that would have instructions for what the robot would do, but I'm unsure if this would be feasable. Any suggestions are appreciated.
March 1, 20178 yr Ok, thanks for the suggestions. I'll probably stick with NBT as I have no experience with WorldSavedData . Edited March 1, 20178 yr by Awesome_Spider
March 2, 20178 yr You could do what computercraft does store an Item ID in NBT then use that ID to reference an external file.This gives some leniency on what file structures you can use for storing the programs. You could store the program files in the minecraft save folder.
March 2, 20178 yr I just stored json in the item's NBT. It may not be the best solution in the world, but it works. Thanks for the suggestion though.
