Wiremod Internet Protocol

[PureWho]

Hello!

I had this idea, we should create a protocol for sending data from one wire device to another.

Obviusoly, this could be used in many application, from linking two wired computers together to the advance dupe teleporter.

Also, this could be intergrated with Freefall's WRSs to create a 'WiredNet'!

You can use the global variables of E2.

That would be the hardware layer, the wires or raidos. He's talking about the software layer, the TCP/IP. I might help with this, I have good ideas sometimes.

Yup, yup!

The end product would be the ability to send data down a wire and have it come out at the right place, with any need metadata attached.

Well there's WireFI, which is a wired/wireless transfer protocol

[Schilcote]

Well, I think this might become one of those things where nobody wants to help you, and you end up kicking buttock because you did it yourself and it's done well. I might help you if nobody else does, but two pepole is pretty much the same as one, in development terms. Maybe development load reduces exponentially with the pepole who help with it, so a dev team of 5 has a much different task than a two person team (note that I'm not saying its easier neccecaraly, just different).

Anyway, great idea. I'll have to check out BP's wireFI system, and see if I/we can at least learn from it.

EDIT:
Don't see it.

uwsvn has wire radio systems. work on frequencies ranges etc. wiresvn has two way radios, radios, wireless recievers and senders E2 global variables, E2 signals.

what more you you need?

[Schilcote]

Am I the only one who understands what this is? We are taliking about a protocol, a software, a standard. You pepole are talking about hardware. They're completely different things.

build the software using chips/expression

build the software using chips/expression

What they mean is to agree how to "build the software using chips/expression"... In the same way that I decided that all variables should have capital letter.
