Advanced Computer contains information about the ComputerCraft mod. |
The Advanced Computer is a device added by the ComputerCraft mod. It works in the same way that computers do, but have the ability to display color on the screen and supports mouse input. There are 16 different colors that can be used.
Color is used by entering term.setBackgroundColor(colorvalue) (colorvalue is the value of a color e.g. 1= white 2 = orange, 4 = magenta or you can use the colors api e.g. colors.white, colors.orange, colors.magenta)
and term.setTextColor(colorvalue)
You can watch a video that shows some of the things possible with the new Advanced Computers here.
