I would like to feed my app with data, from external controller (here a arduino ).
the raspberry version does allow to read/write IO Pins, but i never saw a way
to communicate via seriell lines (using comports) (PI,windows/linux versions)
or i2c for the PI version.

On Windows(32/64) and linux versions I use a serial plugin (.dll and .so) to allow comport access as there is no built in serial port access functions built into AGK.

AGKPi doesnt seem to support plugins so I use PIGPIOD. You can then use network/multiplayer commands to then send commands locally to access serial port. (In theory, it would also give you access to I2C/PWM/SPI/SERVO too but I only used the serial port) . This is a really horrible library to have to write though and would consider if you really need it or not.
