gpsd: the thox GPS daemon¶

On thox, determining the device’s position and helping other devices to find their position is permitted through the GPS daemon.

Link to the GPS protocol; see GPS protocol.

Have a configuration for it, telling it the following information:

Manage position updates on turtle events.

os.rpc.gps.locate()¶

Locate the device on Minecraft’s three-dimensional cartesian coordinates system, using the GPS protocol or the position set manually.
