Turtle errors?

[Jof16s]

I'm having trouble with my turtles. I keep getting some king of 'too long without call' error when using my mining turtle for mining large areas. This also happens when I use code to wait for an event (like a redstone signal) to signal a computer to do something. Thoughts?
I have yet to hear of anyone else getting this and I've seen several of direwolf's videos where he uses the same code without trouble.

before it waits for a redstone signal put in:
os.PullEvent("redstone")

os.PullEvent("redstone")

I don't quite understand. But it doesn't just do it there. The mining program I have (not my own, someone else made it) does it too. I know it's not the program itself as I've seen this error in many different types of code but only on my computer so far. It might be my computer having problems, but I'm not sure.

what this does is it waits for a redstone update near it for it to continue to the next line, i added it before waiting for a redstone signal and it worked

Cool. I'll remember that next time. but the mining turtle doesn't utilize a redstone signal, so I have no idea why I'm getting the error. It shouldn't be waiting for any event.

could you post the code and tell me what line the problem occurs in

Here's the program I'm using:

I *think* the error was in line 75. but it's been about 2 hours since I saw it and I can't be sure anymore.

hmm well i have seen this program before so it should work...
I am afraid I won't be able to help you unless I know exactly what line it is or if you've modified it

I'll put a turtle in a test world tomorrow and post the error stuff here.
And I haven't modified it at all. Only thing I really did differently is I don't have rednet on it, but it should work.

by further inspection of the code, it looks like it has to be a wireless turtle to work

Nope. Even the creator shows that it doesn't have to be wireless (although wireless is preferred)
I'm sticking the turtle in a test world now, though.
