Sides of RedRouter

Hi ๐Ÿ‘‹, cool mod ))

But I observed that for RedRouter sides seems to be flipped (I would expect them to be relative to player not to face of RedRounter).
Like right side will be on the left from player's perspective, for me, it's a bit confusing.
What do you think about that?

Also, I would love to have Wiki page for it :)

Thanks for great mod!

Also, just curious, what is the difference between RedRouter and the already existing Redstone API of CC: T? Maybe there is some plans to add something that can be done by Redstone API?

Hey,

the problem with the sides is that CC itself does both.
While Turtles use their sides, Computers use the players sides. I think using the sides from the Turtle is more comfortable, which is why I did it this way. But I will probably also not change it, as this might just destroy already existing code and confuse everyone, which I dont want to happen (maby with a major update if this should annoy many more people).

There shouldnt be any differences between the Redstone API from CC:T and the RedRouter, as it is based on it. ^^

And about the Wiki page, Im working on a script that does that for me, which is why it takes a bit more time (im nearly done though). But if you really need them now, you can look at the javadocs (Dont worry, you dont have to understand java, just read the docs for the methods that are marked as [AT]LuaFunction): RedRouterBlockPeripheral.java

I hope this was helpfull! ^^

Yep, understandable), if you will think of RedRouter as a turtle it makes sense to have sides like that.

And for the Wiki, I know Java at some level so this is not a problem for me to read the code) actually, I did that right after creating this issue ๐Ÿ˜… But an auto-generated Wiki page will be cool)

Thanks)
