Red Power was (is... Kind of) an extension not a fork. Although you could call it more an reinterpretation.
But really RP vs Redstone is more like C vs Assembly. I've seen crazy things done in both but I think I find it a bit more impressive when people use pure Redstone to get things done. There are so many dimensions where you both need to understand the mechanics and where there are opportunities for optimization.
The turtle mod you are talking about is ComputerCraft.
- johnisgood 1y agoYes, ComputerCraft! I have written so much Lua because of it. Only if I still had the scripts. :( I had no idea RedPower is not a fork, I just remember having switched to it because of no updates for Redstone or version incompatibility issues or something? It's been a really long time ago.
- Arch-TK 1y agoRedstone isn't a mod. It was added to Minecraft in a secret Friday update in the early days around alpha iirc.
- johnisgood 1y agoOh hold on. I was confusing Redstone with https://ftb.fandom.com/wiki/RedPower_2 https://ftb.fandom.com/wiki/RedPower_2 and Project Red[1] that came afterwards. How embarassing. :P So it was RedPower -> RedPower 2, and then Project Red. It added a lot of goodies! You should check out the links.
