Heavy computers accepting only 2 modules instead of 3 - Iatots - 11-23-2014

Title says it all, heavy computer frames (terminal frames) can not accept more than 2 boards, and since you need both a terminal board to connect to mainframe and an ID scanner module to login it is impossible to install other peripherals.

Not a bug, use a console frame instead. You'll note that none of the pre-existing DWAINE terminals have other peripherals.

The one you're looking for is computer frame, rather than console or terminal. Consoles take circuitboards, while terminals have a peripherial limit of 2. Computers have a limit of 3.

The wiki doesn't specify that difference between computer and terminal frames, guess I'll edit it myself then. Thanks for the help and sorry for wasting time.

Oh and, while testing this while marq was typing, apparently SMES monitors and barcode scanners can't be deconstructed.
