Nice script) And yeah, I know that mining in a straight line is not efficient, but I just hate relocating turtles or quarries when they are done and this approach was my solution - set up one and forget about it for quite a while. Besides, it was intended to use with many turtles anyway.

not really, I'm still on 1.4.7. This is clearly a chunkloading issue. You can try making a turtle with a regular chunkloader moving along with the mining turtles, like Direwolf20 did.

No, what does it do? you can also access turtle programs as regular files outside minecraft at /minecraft/saves/%world%/computer/%turtleId%

I don't see anything that could be causing this. I will need more information to reproduce it. A row you say? Like they were all close to each other? Maybe it was some sort of chunk glitch?

40% is a lot =( I don't know if this is it, but that sounds like a refueling issue. Any chance you got non-fuel items in the fuel chest? Or was the turtle's bottom right slot occupied? Try this version - http://pastebin.com/c5Q0Pien I'm not putting it in the first post just yet because I'm not...

Oh yeah, I've been trying to find a nice way to implement a control unit for quite a while. No simple solution comes to mind. I don't know much about turtles programming turtles, but I do know for certain that you can use floppy disks to flash turtles with a startup program. Can't find any...

I've seen that before, and I'm totally puzzled. This bug seems to be very difficult to reproduce, because every single time I restart a turtle with Ctrl+R, it works just fine. The bug only manifests after server restarts. I did some more debugging and according to my research a turtle just...

Now that's what I call stress testing)) Turns out there was a little bug I missed, check out the updated version. What was happening: I forgot to assign a value to the startup refueling procedure, so your turtles were getting this error each time the server rebooted while they were refueling...

Can't do that, unfortunately. It's either this or reliability, and I'd totally choose the latter. The program uses the zero level as a marker to determine its exact position. The counter basically resets every time the turtle gets to bedrock - this way you can be sure that even if something goes...

1. Two. Output and fuel supply. 2. I suppose I could if it's really necessary, but I thought it's a little too simple to require a full-blown tutorial)

No, I'm on the stable one.

I believe a wooden pipe and a stirling engine would be able to handle a couple of turtles. Add a diamond pipe and you're all set)

Just to name a few: AE (last time I checked) lacks an interface capable of keeping an appliance stocked with a certain amount of certain items (e.g. keep 32 X and 16 Y in a chest at all times). LP can be used to automate bee sorting and processing. Using a remote requester + ender pouch you can...

It's not impossible, but it will make the program overly complex. I'd like to keep the program as simple (and therefore reliable) as possible, and since sorting can easily be done on the receiving end, adding this functionality doesn't seem to be worth it. I can suggest improving your sorting...

Just added a few updates. Implemented the return option. Enable it by writing anything as a 3rd argument. Example: dig 50 50 return. This feature is not protected by the state saving mechanism, so if the server restarts while the turtle is going back, it will get stuck and you'll have to...

Thanks) I'm glad it's useful for someone other than me) Return feature shouldn't be very hard to implement, but it will require writing a more intelligent state saving mechanism, which I'm rather reluctant to do. I'll see what can be done about it. Originally I wanted to make a rednet remote...

So I made this turtle program and thought it could be useful to someone else. It's very simple, and the main idea behind it was to make something that doesn't require any maintenance. This program is based on another one and basically is a major simplification of the source program. Preamble...

...like MultiMC has. IMO it's a very useful feature since modded Minecraft is not quite an example of stability (at least in my experience), and even if it runs fine most of the time it can still occasionally have major freezes which can only be resolved by killing the process. MultiMC makes it...
