Development of scripts

[DevNebulae 0]

Hello everyone!

I am currently diving deeper in the documentation of the OpenComputers mod and I am wondering if there is a way to externally develop a script while testing it on the MineCraft client. I could develop scripts for ComputerCraft by placing them in a certain folder in the .minecraft folder, but what is the preferred way of doing so in OpenComputers?

With developing externally, I mean in my favorite editor of choice (Visual Studio Code for example).

Sure, open the OpenComputers config, find "bufferChanges=" and set it to false.  Then you can put files directly into $savedir/world/opencommputers/$hdduuid/

The weird thing is that if I add a file via Visual Studio Code (VS Code), the computer does not pick up on it until after I reboot the computer. I can also not real-time edit the file in VS Code and run it on the computer as I expect it to as I could with ComputerCraft. Is there something I am missing?

Whoops, got a bit too enthusiastic with trying it out. At least I documented what happens when you don't do it. Thanks for the help!
