make at least two colors of smart cable be part of the ae2 device

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

this is both nice for backwards compat with the light blue cables, and allows for some decoration and cable shenanigans that wouldn't otherwise be available.

Agreed. Since you are not the one crafting them we can assume they are smart enough to change colors and let you change all of them

wait I should ping pending code contributors maybe...

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

i don't seem to have permission for that but it might just be mobiles bad ui

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

yarden.zamir on Discord says

Everyone has permission for pings here i think

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

yarden.zamir on Discord says

<@&1181024760730226708> if anyone wants to add the colored versions of me cables to the network devices that could be a nice first contribution

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

yarden.zamir on Discord says

the file is kubejs/server_scripts/base/featrues/devices.js

[TheFarawayDev]

I might if I have time after school...

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

should they all be accessible?

[TheFarawayDev]

Yes

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

i think there's an argument to be made to keep the color pool low so there's a consistent asthetic

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

a facade could also be nice, like one for a specific block

[TheFarawayDev]

So fake blocks for the cables?

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

im pretty sure you can't get the blocks back out of a facade in any way so it should be safe to make it part of the device

[TheFarawayDev]

NOTES:

• Wants Facade
• New Color Cables

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

yarden.zamir on Discord says

hm.. maybe. but it will feel wierd to have some colores a device and some manual. I think we should either have them all or have the others removed

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

i don't think all colors are really necessary

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

do you think it'd be reasonable to have the color applicator

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

it doesn't let you dye very many blocks, notably for us it doesn't let you dye concrete powder

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

it's an energy gadget which feels like it's antithetical

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

also we could do something like let the dense cables and/or the non-covered cables be all 16 colors

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

and have those be their own device tier

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

sharing space with the controller

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

autistic.sack.of.friends on Discord says

i think that makes sense given the controllers propensity towards being pretty colorful

[Discord-Github-Bridge]

yarden.zamir on Discord says

for now i made all 16 colors be able to convert to none colored

I don't believe this issue is needed anymore as we're moving to uncoloured with devices. Even the wreck ship will use uncoloured smart cables by #554

So reopen if needed
