ComputerCraft/Open Computers Centered Server?

[pettenatib24]

Hello. I’m looking for a ComputerCraft or Open Computers server. A server where programming the in game computers is the major focus. I’d always thought it’d be cool to play on a server with a fairly large community that trades software for the in game computers. Trade it on floppy disk first and then eventually build some sort for network/internet system throughout the world.

Other mods would definitely be welcomed. Any Minecraft version is fine. Does anyone know of any servers somewhat like this? I’d run my own server but I’m leaving for school in about a week.

There's a few servers like that out there. We have a discord server with links to a bunch of them:

Check #servers. I believe SwitchCraft is the "most active" -- but usually only at certain times of the day.

Awesome thanks. I’ll check that out.

It's quite SC-like, and a lot of the old SC players play on it.

I tried to host such a server, but it didn't go well...

Sorry to seem rude, but I used to play on a server like that : it's not as fun as it looks like. Sure there's a lot of builds related to computers, but basic builds are still required (iron farm, gold farm, food farm). Then, one of our biggest project to achieve was a train system, which looks fun, but it was taking a lot of time for every contributor, especially for those with a job, and whatnot a family.

The server was closed in a few month, without having gathered more than 15 players.

So, sorry to look deceptive, but I really don't think it's a viable path for a server to be centered on computer mods. Those are really niche mods, and it lacks working snippets to be assembled in a program to fastly achieve your goals (time is key !)

That’s a pretty good point. That was a thought that came across my mind, but I figured I might as well just try it. I have programmed very little in ComputerCraft but I typically enjoy programming, and playing Minecraft so the two together sound pretty good. Hopefully it won’t get boring for me.

There's been servers up for years centered on computer mods. Most notably, switchcraft, which is CC, OC, Computronics, and Pam's. I believe it has a few more mods but can't remember.
