CC;CPG: Pinout
by Breakdown
CC: Pinout adds a single Pinout block that lets CC:Tweaked computers read and drive Create Power Grid electrical pins from Lua programs.
What it does
The mod adds one new block, the Pinout, which acts as a CC:Tweaked peripheral. Its job is to bridge the two mods, so a computer can control Create electrical systems without any analog hardware being invented for the purpose. The Pinout exposes nine Create Power Grid pins to Lua.
Lua programs can connect and disconnect pins 1 to 8 with a shared common pin, measure the voltage across any two pins, and read the voltage difference between them. Helper functions such as referencePin, pinLayout and setPins let a program address individual pins or update several at once, and setByte writes an 8-bit value across the pins. Client and server both need the mod. The code is partly created with Generative AI, and it is released under All rights reserved, so the license is not open source. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, with 0.2.1 as the latest file.
