AFKed for about 2-3hours and got almost 2 diamond chests full of enchanted books!

Oh man, so many turtles! Do you actually need all nine (have you tried to run only eight/seven/six/etc etc and see if it stayed stable) or is it for the awesomeness of having nine attack turtles?

Either way, excellent usage of turtles!

He could, yes. But let's list out the steps:

  1. Craft a disk drive.
  2. Craft a floppy disk.
  3. Put the disk drive down next to the turtle.
  4. Place the floppy disk into the disk drive.
  5. Open the turtle.
  6. Type "cp startup /disk/startupBACKUP". (You want to do this so the computer/turtle won't boot off the disk when you use it).
  7. Close the turtle.
  8. Break the disk drive (drops the disk and disk drive).
  9. Go over to your new turtle and open it.
  10. Place down the disk drive.
  11. Place the disk inside the disk drive.
  12. Open the turtle.
  13. Type "cp /disk/startupBACKUP startup"
  14. Start "startup"
  15. Close the turtle.
Versus...

  1. Open the turtle.
  2. Type "pastebin put startup"
  3. Record the pastebin code.
  4. Close the turtle.
  5. Go over to your new turtle and open it.
  6. Type "pastebin get <CODE> startup"
  7. Start "startup"
  8. Close the turtle.
Now, if you are on a server that does not have HTTP enabled, you'll have to do the disk method, which sucks. I used to use it, and pastebin is a WHOLE lot better, by far.

What exactly is this pastebin code? Posted the script on Pastebin but cant find any code

When you make a pastebin post, you will get an eight digit code (for example, "xvELnVcm") which links up to a pastebin page (http://pastebin.com/xvELnVcm) where the code will exist.

When you use the "pastebin put <FILENAME>" command, it will tell you that it has succeeded, and what your eight digit code is. If you are still having issues with this, run the "pastebin put <FILENAME>" command, and then take a screenshot of the output and post it up here, and I'll assist you with decoding the output. Thanks.

Well thats a quick reply! And it helps, thanks.


But problem after problem, I typed Pastebin put startup and it said "no such program"
Before I tested it I checked out the Computercraft config, And I found "Enable the "http" API on Computers" but it was already set to true so I thought I didnt need to change anything.

Yeah, if it is already true, you should not need to do anything. Also, try "pastebin" (remember that it is case sensitive, so Pastebin is different from PASTEBIN is different from pastebin, etc) to see if that works.

What is the pastebin ID/code you are trying to use? Paste it in here (or if you don't want to share the code, shoot it to me via PM) and I will verify that it is working. In the meantime, try this command: "pastebin put xvELnVcm test", and then try and edit the "test" file. If that does not work, take a screenshot of the output and post that up, please.

Ah, excellent, nevermind about the above, and good luck! Enjoy the MUCH easier way of migrating code around. Also, you should keep around the pastebin IDs so you can keep copies of your code as needed later on.
