Looking for help making my first OC program

[Lumandrill 0]

First of all I would like to start of with saying that I am new to LUA.

I am trying to make a small program that will get some basic information from a Big Reactor, but as this is my first program it is progressing slowly and I was hoping that the community here can help me a bit.

 

Quick explanation:
-#-# and #+# will be buttons to increase decrease the value by 10
-Set all will be to buttons to set all rods to that value

-############## will be a a bar giving a visual representation of how full the power storage is

I am having a hard time making the buttons. I have been looking around but I could not find any information about how to make them.

Link to the file on github:

Also I am open for suggestions if something in the code can be done better, since I am learning some of it might look like it was coded with a crowbar.

Your code actually is very concise and readable. Don't beat yourself with that crowbar.. I have a small button api I'll upload for you soon. At work ATM.

There's a Button API here on these forums (it has only be shared via Pastebin, not on GitHub as far as I know.)  Here is the link: http://oc.cil.li/index.php?/topic/255-button-api-now-for-oc-updated-9-6-2014/

 

As a big fan of Big Reactors, I'm interested to see how your projects goes!  I'll be happy to test it when it's ready for testing
