Minecoprocessors Mod 1.16.5, — Reference

Blocks

The mod adds two primary blocks that serve as the heart of your programmable circuits.

Redstone Processor

The standard Redstone Processor is an 8-bit microprocessor. It operates at a frequency of 10Hz, meaning it executes one line of code per redstone tick. It features six I/O ports (Front, Back, Left, Right, Top, and Bottom) that can be configured as either inputs or outputs.

Overclocked Processor

The Overclocked Processor is an upgraded version of the standard unit. It operates at 20Hz, effectively executing two instructions per redstone tick. This is essential for high-speed logic where standard redstone timing is too slow.

Items

Programming the processors requires specific items to store and transfer code.

Book and Quill

The standard Minecraft Book and Quill is the primary tool for writing programs. You write your assembly code on the pages of the book and then place the book into the processor's inventory slot to begin execution. * Tip: Programs must fit on a single page to be pasted correctly. If a program is too long, use multiple pages or the Code Book. * Signing: Signing a book makes it read-only and allows it to be copied using the standard vanilla mechanics.

Code Book

The Code Book is a mod-specific item designed to improve the programming experience. Unlike the vanilla Book and Quill, the Code Book provides a more traditional text-editing interface, making it easier to manage large programs. * Note: The Redstone Processor is not consumed when crafting the Code Book; it acts as a tool for the recipe.

Recipes

The following recipes are used to create the core components of the mod.

Redstone Processor

Crafted using standard redstone components. It is placed like a repeater, with the "front" facing away from the player.

Overclocked Processor

To upgrade a processor for 20Hz operation: * Recipe: 1x Redstone Processor + 1x Glowstone Dust (or similar speed-enhancing material depending on version).

Code Book

To create the advanced editor: * Recipe: 1x Redstone Processor + 1x Book and Quill (The processor is returned to the player).
