Redstone enhanced craft signs

Open oh-noey opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Movecraft's signs are a reliable way to control and monitor crafts in a gameplay inclusive manner. These can further be elevated through redstone I/O.

Describe the solution you'd like Various signs take input that correspond to various actions on crafts. Almost all of these signs could be enhanced to be activated by redstone. It is a non-goal to add automated craft piloting through this however, as this requires special care. Other signs also provide visual feedback in regards to a crafts current state. This includes cruising, ascending, descending, speed, and more. There should be some method to read this information as a redstone signal (possibly of variable strength) to control crafts. Since some signs are able to provide both input to crafts and outputs to users (such as cruise signs), comparators may be required to receive a signal to prevent conflicts.

Sent made a custom plugin a bit ago for this, and maybe we can take from that a bit? :)

With how much feature creep Movecraft has suffered over the past few years, it may be better for us to merely expand the API such that an addon for this is rock solid, rather than integrating it into Movecraft itself.
