does the computer WORK>

yes

Yes

I've seen slope skier played

so if i build the circuit IRL it will do something?

Well you can build logic gates

And you can place pixels

And you can tell pixels to move with pistons

If you if you think of blocks as pixels

has anyone written 'bridge scripts' between real life tools?

I didn't know but people have run Minecraft in Raspberry Pi so I assume it's highly possible

Hook it up with Arduino or something

well, more like be able to translate between an Arduino sketch and a minecraft object

Kicad schematic to meinkraft circuit

THAT would be cool

Minecraft is still java

The windows 10 edition is just Microsoft trying to resell the same game

Java is still better if memory is at a premium

Well there are definitely things that happened in game that output messages to my server overview

Open Computers/computer craft, will teach you how to write programming to set tasks that you as a player will do, very advanced, it's merely a couple of mods in an environment that you can add a surprising amount to, I used to make custom mod packs, the possibilities are insane actually.

memory is cheap though

Also I've seen Discord integration

I like a lot of exploration type stuff

opens up some interesting possibilities

hexxit and tekxit are good

tekxit is a combo of tekkit and hexxit but more updated

always thought they should do more cross-compatibility between real-world tools and games like Kerbal

yes yes, you can also easily download a premade mod pack

I don't suppose you have any spigot bucket experience?

cos hexxit is stuck on the 2013 build of minecraft

You'll waste a lot of hours in minecraft

not if you can translate the objects to real life objects

the Twitch launcher is the easiest way to get a proper tested and proved modpack up and going, very easily..

I like the technic laucher myself

would be alot less tedious than say drawing up a Kicad schematic

But, I do suggest, it you are new- to learn the basics of mc first, a few times over if needed.

even vanilla mc can be a lot to take in

Yeah get a game in, play with some vanilla

Not really, just open wikipage with recipes and gather the ingredients

hmm, sounds like something that would be interesting; of course, I'm already not getting enough done
