Turtles and Chests

[Stimo]

Isit possible to hook turtles up to chests so that when the turtles inventory is full is ships goods off into chests instead?

If so please link any possible tutorials?

turtle.drop will place items in a chest, but it's up to you to program it to do so at the right time. There's no automatic "hooking up".

The excavate program included in the mod kind of does that already. Look into the zip file of CC, go to lua\rom\programs\turtle and open it. Learn from the code.
Another option would be to use GPS (save the chest coords and return to there, when your 16th slot starts to fill).

if you want to drop everything into a chest above, here is a little piece of code that does just that (also checks if inventory is "full" (well, not exactly, but very close):

if (turtle.getItemCount(16)) then
  for i=16, 1, -1 do
    turtle.select(i)
    turtle.dropUp()
  end
end

Note that it does it the reverse way, so that it starts to fill up slot 1 again after that.
Hope that it is what you asked.
