Hologram Projector

The Hologram Projector projects an field of blocks into the air. Note: all functions that take coordinates are zerobased while Lua arrays(and in most cases loops) are onebased(to fill an complete row don’t use for 1,8 do instead use for 0,7)

Events

The hologram projector has one event, which is triggered when a player click the hologram

Signature

1. number The button which the player used to click the hologram(0 = Left Click, 1 = Right Click)
2. number The X-Coordinate of the clicked block
3. number The Y-Coordinate of the clicked block
4. number The Z-Coordinate of the clicked block
5. string The side which was clicked(possible values: bottom, top, north, south, west, east). Note: The value is corrigated when rotated
6. string The way the projector is wrapped to the computer
7. table The item that the player who clicked the hologram holds.
