Jargon Generator (PB Script)

Description
Generate Techno-Jargon
This is an in-game script that runs in a Programmable Block

If you want a mod that makes this available to every LCD as a 'script' option, use the following link:

Jargon Generator TSS Mod (2470184482)



Information is generated using a Lindenmayer grammar system. Can be assigned to any display. Supports use on mutliple displays and blocks (each block gets unique output).

Use
  1. Load the script into a Programmable block
  2. To display the script on any text panel or LCD, add the [Jargon] tag to the name
  3. To display the script on any block with multiple displays
    1. Add the tag (above) to the name of the block
    2. In the custom data of the block add @# [Jargon], where # is the display number in the block
  4. Recompile the Programmable block

If you are using this in a build, that's fantastic. Please let me know, so I can see it in the wild! If you have uploaded a build using this script, please link back to me using the Add/Remove Required Items link. Thank you!

Please do not copy, modify, re-upload or otherwise represent my work as your own, your team's, your server's, or anyone else's. Thank you!

@tubular, no I'm not doing an ATC version -- it just double the amount of code I need to maintain. I'll see about updating for the new consoles.

@into, thanks!

@1 [Jargon]

@2 AutoLCD

seems to cause trouble as Jargon is trying to use screen=2

Hey, any chance we can get an update for the new "Console Blocks"? Script currently only generates text for half the screens, at least on the Console Module LCD variety

Love this script! Any chance of getting Air Traffic in a PB as well?

Which number you put depends entirely upon which screen you want to use, and is only required for blocks with multiple displays.

You should write that most LCDs using @0 and not @1 in the description!

Galile0, yes it works in cockpits. You have to add the tag to the cockpit name (like an LCD), and then also add the screen and tag to the custom info. If you still have problems, feel free to jump on the Discord and we can help you more there.

Any way this could work for control seat/station displays? It seems to only detect LCDs and decorative block display. Tried the @1 [Jargon] tag too. Don't work either... Love the mod BTW i'm definitely spamming it onto my future builds

Mantha, I'm glad you got it working. Yeah, the screens are listed in the terminal window in the same order as they are numbered. The first screen is 0, and it goes from there. :)
