Tutorial/Censored Password Lock

Just a slight warning before showing this tutorial: Unless you have at least somewhat of an understanding of Lua or Computer Craft do not try to edit this program. :)

Lets get started.

Program Code

The first thing you will need to know is how to make the program non-terminable(non-exitable).

os.pullEvent = os.pullEventRaw

Now you will need the coding for the actual locking and redstone mechanism. This version of the program is for use with a Computer.

Program Code w/ Colors

This version of the program is for use with an Advanced Computer.

os.pullEvent = os.pullEventRaw

--Password
pass = "EnterPasswordHere"

--Making the screen empty
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
--These commands clear the screen.

--Lock and Redstone Mechanism

term.setTextColor(colors.COLOR)
term.setBackgroundColor(colors.COLOR)
--Replace the COLOR with the color of you choice. For the available colors see the colors section below.
print("Arming Security Systems...")
print("Booting Lock Mechanism...")
sleep(2)
print("Systems Armed.")
print("Please enter assigned password.")

input = read("*")
if input == pass then
  print("Validating password.")
  sleep(1)
  print("Password sucessfully validated.")
  print("Disengaging Lock mechanism...")
  redstone.setOutput("SIDE", true)
  sleep(2)
  redstone.setOutput("SIDE", false)
else
  print("Validating Password...")
  sleep(1)
  print("LEVEL 1 SECURITY BREACH ATTEMPT!)
  print("Activating Emergency Shutdown Procedures.")
  sleep(2)
end
os.reboot()
