Brick_LuaLogic

A high-performance digital logic simulation frontend for Blockland
by Eagle517 and Redo

How to Install:

  1. Install this add-on to Blockland.
  2. Install the required add-on Print_Logic_Default.
  3. Download Lua backend.
  4. Install LuaPower.
  5. Add luapower-all-master/bin/mingw64 to Path.

How to Use:

  1. Start Blockland server.
  2. Run Lua backend using StartBackend.bat.
  3. Enter llc(); in Blockland server console to connect to the backend.
    If all goes well, the Lua console should show "Connection from 127.0.0.1:25000", and the Blockland console should show "LuaLogic -> tcp connected".

Commands:

  • /lt - Toggle the logic updates on or off.
  • /lst (timeMS) - Set the logic tick time in milliseconds. This is the propagation delay through a single gate. Minimum is 1 - to use higher tick rates, use the multiplier.
  • /lsm (multiplier) - Set the logic multiplier. This is how many logic ticks are executed per tick time. For example, for an LST of 5 ms, and an LSM of 30, the effective tick rate will be 6 kHz (1000/5 * 10).
  • /ls - Force a logic tick when updates are disabled - useful for debugging circuits and observing timing.
  • /lfx - Toggle brick FX updates on or off - useful for reducing ghosting when operating large circuits.
  • /lfxt (timeMS) - Set the logic FX update time in milliseconds - this is how often the logic backend sends FX updates to the game. Increase to reduce ghosting, decrease for better visualization. Setting to 0 not recommended.
  • /ltr - Toggle bottom-print display showing the actual logic tick rate.
  • /li - View information about the number of logic bricks currently on the server.
