Network

A network object.

-- Handles an individual reactor subnet
local function handleReactor(network: Network)
    -- Get all of the relevant parts relative to the reactor subnet
    local reactor = network:GetPart("Reactor")
    local polysilicon = network:GetPart("Polysilicon")
    local dispenser = network:GetPart("Dispenser")

    -- stuff
end

-- Handles all reactors on a subnet full of reactor modules
local function handleReactors(network: Network)
    for _, port in network:GetPorts() do
        -- Handle the reactor on the subnet
        handleReactor(network:GetSubnet(port))
    end
end

-- Handles the reactor modules on Port 1
handleReactors(Network:GetSubnet(1))

---

GetHistory(self) → history

Returns a list of all objects that have been traversed by the network. Note this makes a copy of the internal state and is therefore modifying it does not affect the network itself whatsoever.

It has no parameters.

The history return is a dictionary with keys that are PilotObjects and values that are trues.

---

GetPart(self, className) → object

The className parameter is a string. It can also be nil.

The object return is a PilotObject. It can also be nil.

---

GetPartFromPort(self, port, className) → object

The parameters for GetPartFromPort are as follows:

• The port parameter is a PortLike. It can also be nil.
• The className parameter is a string. It can also be nil.

The object return is a PilotObject. It can also be nil.

---

GetParts(self, className) → objects

The className parameter is a string. It can also be nil.

The objects return is an array of a PilotObjects.

---

GetPartsFromPort(self, port, className) → objects

The parameters for GetPartsFromPort are as follows:

• The port parameter is a PortLike. It can also be nil.
• The className parameter is a string. It can also be nil.

The objects return is an array of a PilotObjects.

---

GetPort(self, port) → objects

The port parameter is a PortLike. It can also be nil.

The objects return is an array of a Ports.

---

GetPorts(self, port) → objects

The port parameter is a PortLike. It can also be nil.

The objects return is an array of a Ports.

---

GetSubnet(self, port) → subnet

Creates a new network with its root set to the specified Port.

The port parameter is a PortLike. It can also be nil.

The subnet return is a Network.

---

__index

It is of the type Network.

---

new(rootParts, parentNetwork) → network

danger

This function is volatile and may be subject to change as it is primarily for internal use.

The parameters for new are as follows:

• The rootParts parameter is an array of objects to be the roots of the network It is an array of a PilotObjects.
• The parentNetwork parameter is you can use this to make a new network that will never explore along the path that was taken by the network you pass. It is a Network. It can also be nil.

The network return is a Network.

Luau Type

This is the luau type for Network. It may help clear up mistranslations from the raw data to the wiki page (as it is an automatic process).
