Interface IGridConnection

public interface IGridConnection

Access to AE's internal grid connections. Messing with connection is generally completely unnecessary, you should be able to just use IGridNode.updateState() to have AE manage them for you. Don't Implement.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
IGridNode	a()
IGridNode	b()
void	destroy() by destroying a connection you may create new grids, and trigger un-expected behavior, you should only destroy connections if you created them.
AEPartLocation	getDirection(IGridNode gridNode) determine the direction of the connection based on your node.
IGridNode	getOtherSide(IGridNode gridNode) lets you get the opposing node of the connection by passing your own node.
int	getUsedChannels()
boolean	hasDirection()

Method Detail

getOtherSide

@Nonnull
IGridNode getOtherSide(IGridNode gridNode)

lets you get the opposing node of the connection by passing your own node.

Parameters:

gridNode - current grid node

Returns:

the IGridNode which represents the opposite side of the connection.

getDirection

@Nonnull
AEPartLocation getDirection(IGridNode gridNode)

determine the direction of the connection based on your node.

Parameters:

gridNode - current grid node

Returns:

the direction of the connection, only valid for in world connections.

destroy

void destroy()

by destroying a connection you may create new grids, and trigger un-expected behavior, you should only destroy connections if you created them.

a

@Nonnull
IGridNode a()

Returns:

node A

b

@Nonnull
IGridNode b()

Returns:

node B

hasDirection

boolean hasDirection()

Returns:

if the connection is invisible this returns false

getUsedChannels

int getUsedChannels()

Returns:

how many channels pass over this connections.
