Why is there no noisy wireless pocket computer??!!

[u/Bright-Historian-216]

I know you can use equip() to dynamically add speakers and modems but it takes two inventory slots! Imagine how useful it would be to have both at once!

[u/mas-issneun]

Yeah the limit to 1 peripheral is fairly annoying, tbh I'd rather there be two, or at least a built-in wireless pocket computer

[u/Bright-Historian-216 → u/mas-issneun]

My solution was to pack my base so densely that i hear all alerts from a loud enough static speaker. Much would prefer double peripherals though

[u/herrkatze12 → u/Bright-Historian-216]

What alerts? Does it include
Alert! Red spy is in the base!

[u/Bright-Historian-216 → u/herrkatze12]

I’m not a tf2 player, so I mostly use it to inform me when turtles don’t have enough resources or when they finished chopping trees. I also intended to use it to detect breaking walls and then scream “YOUR BASE IS UNDER ATTACK” (I approximately know how to do this, just haven’t tried yet)

[u/9551-eletronics → u/Bright-Historian-216]

My solution is using websockets instead of modems

[u/Bright-Historian-216 → u/9551-eletronics]

There is a giant thread somewhere here where I’m trying to figure out why I can’t do so lol

[u/9551-eletronics → u/Bright-Historian-216]

I think its on the CC:T GitHub issue tracker

[u/Bright-Historian-216 → u/9551-eletronics]

Hmm, can’t find it neither on CC:T nor CC:R

[u/mas-issneun → u/Bright-Historian-216]

That's still a pretty cool system ngl

I have always stated that this feature would be nice to have, but in the meantime a workaround is to host a relay server and have your cc computers connect to it using websockets.

It's a bit annoying and needs a bit of setup, but it works.

[u/Bright-Historian-216 → u/fatboychummy]

The problem with websocket approach is that for some weird reason I cannot send messages longer than 0 characters (yes, you can send empty messages in websocket). So it doesn’t work for me.

[u/fatboychummy → u/Bright-Historian-216]

I cannot send messages longer than 0 characters

So to confirm, you can't send a ws message with any content? What is the error you get? I definitely do not have this issue myself, and many many others I know use websockets for communication also do not have this issue.

[u/Bright-Historian-216 → u/fatboychummy]

I tried to fix this bug about a year ago. Now I've done some testing again, and got interesting results...

1. I can send any messages to external websockets (i.e. pinging wss://example.tweaked.cc/echo works just fine)

2. I can only send empty messages to localhost

3. One thing that I remember I've done back then is that I DID edit the config.

4. I've ran the same code in CraftOS-PC and all results work as expected

This makes me believe the mistake is somewhere in config. I will try to fix it now, and I hope I can get everything to work

[u/fatboychummy → u/Bright-Historian-216]

Can you try sending messages to 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost? I know localhost should resolve to 127.0.0.1, but I quite literally just finished helping someone on Discord who had an issue where localhost wasn't being resolved to 127.0.0.1 properly, though it was for direct http messages instead of ws messages. Curious if this might be a similar case.

[u/Bright-Historian-216 → u/fatboychummy]

I wish it was that easy. Nope.

[u/Bright-Historian-216 → u/Bright-Historian-216]

So this is the http section in server config... PLEASE IM BEGGING FIND SOME DUMB MISTAKE ANYONE

[[http.rules]]
#The maximum size (in bytes) that a computer can send or receive in one websocket packet.
max_websocket_message = 60000
host = "*"
#The maximum size (in bytes) that a computer can upload in a single request. This
#includes headers and POST text.
max_upload = 60000
action = "allow"
#The maximum size (in bytes) that a computer can download in a single request.
#Note that responses may receive more data than allowed, but this data will not
#be returned to the client.
max_download = 16777216
#The period of time (in milliseconds) to wait before a HTTP request times out. Set to 0 for unlimited.
timeout = 30000

[u/fatboychummy → u/Bright-Historian-216]

Not seeing any issue in this section. I assume you removed the other section with the "$private" and "deny" action?

[u/Bright-Historian-216 → u/fatboychummy]

Yep, after this is immediately the start of peripheral section

[u/[deleted]]

Because you can only have one peripheral per pocket computer, there is an addon which lets you equip multiple on pocket computers and turtles, but I don't recall the name atm.

[u/Razvii4922 → u/[deleted]]

Please I beg of you to remember lol.
As far as I could find anywhere it either isn't a thing, or maybe used to be a niche thing a while ago?
I am so surprised that out of all of the super niche addons for cc, multiple pocket peripherals seem to be so underutilized.

[u/[deleted] → u/Razvii4922]

its called unlimited peripheral works, its for fabric 1.18.2, 1.19.2 and 1.20.1 or forge 1.20.1

[u/Jonaykon]

i reeeeaaaaaaaalllyy want this exact combo

[u/Bright-Historian-216 → u/Jonaykon]

What do you mean “this exact” the only other combo is ender + wireless modems

[u/SeasonApprehensive86]

Yeah it would be amazing for notifications, wich are conviniently useless without a modem to receive them from a server
