Hi all,

This may seem like a strange question, but does anyone know how (or if it's possible) to take input from the serial port in agk tier 1?

I'm probably asking for too much, but it would be awesome if there's a way to do this from agk directly.

I'm thinking of some how attaching my laptop to my exercise bike to make the exercise bike more interesting. I basically need to take some really basic input from a hall effect style sensor. Tempted to use my spare raspberry pi and python as it would be easy, but thought it would be much cooler to develop a program that could be run on a laptop.

Cheers,
Shock.

hmm, i believe there are no serial commands,
but how about using a reconstructed mouse / controller / keyboard for input.
