Resetting turtles fuel levels.

[voidreality]

I have a turtle that I WANT to remove all fuel from. The turtle has a label, but I want to test some refueling code and it will take forever to remove the current fuel levels from the turtle by moving it around. I tried clearing the label and replacing the turtle, but this didn't work. Any way to do this?

Not that I know of. Easier to make a new turtle. I normally test complex lua script in creative. If it works well I keep a text editor open and type it all there to keep a copy I can drop directly into the jar so I don't have to retype it every new world.

label clear
works for me.

option 2 make a new turtle
option 3 make an ultimate charging station and park your turtle team there over night and never worry about fueling turtles again?

Thanks for the comments. I was mostly just curious if I was overlooking some easy command. The turtle running out of fuel really isn't an issue for me. It's more a "feature" if I decide to release the script. The refueling stuff is really easy, but I have never done it with an AE interface and just wanted to double check the turtle would interact with the interfaces inventory correctly (which it does )

Then I'm stuck with a bunch of useless directories in my computers folder. This is what I seemed to be forced to do though if I want to test from no fuel What I ended up doing is just setting a refuel variable to something higher than was in the turtle.

fuelLevel = turtle.getFuelLevel()
fuelCheck =  fuelLevel + 1
if fuelCheck > fuelLevel then
  refuelMe()
end

This simulates no fuel and I could test my code.
