NIDAS, formally Networked Information Display & Automation Software, is an OpenComputers software package that allows the monitoring and automation of machines. NIDAS is built to be easy to use for the end user, which is achieved using a graphical user interface, requiring no knowledge of Lua or modifying the code in any way.
NIDAS uses the OpenGlasses mod to display information on a players HUD, along with more traditional OpenComputers screens. It supports custom colors, most screen resolutions and is lightweight on the server.
Non-exhaustive feature list:
- Power Level Monitoring (LSC, PSS, Battery Buffer)
- Redstone Control depending on power level
- Machine Monitoring, with on-HUD maintenance notification alerts and progress displays
- Fluid level monitoring
- AE2 Autostocker
- Automated infusion
Technical features include:
- Distributed architecture: Master-slave computers allow attaching hundreds of machines to one server to be displayed on your HUD
- Modular design, NIDAS can only run the modules you need on any specific computer
- Automatic update script
- Automatic reboots: Resilient against laggy servers which might cause OpenComputers to crash
For detailed descriptions of different modules and installation instructions, see the wiki.
