*** Official OcUK Modded Minecraft + Vanilla Server - Now with guides and how to's***

i've got a bat i just feel its to cheaty :( i know that sounds silly but tis to easy,
i like being a squid and hiding at night or just chilling in my pool but flying via morph just doesn't seem right to me some how.
i have bat form already.
 
Not to belabour the point too much but as things stand the dedi will be suspended on the 9th. I've still not received any server costs money. I wouldnt nag about it but I don't want people to lose access randomly.

I can't guarantee that I'll be around on the evening of the 8th or anything so I'd prefer to get things sorted before then if possible.
 
My friend is away from his PC for the holidays so I haven't been able to do much testing of the new mining turtle on a proper server but because I want something more interesting than a generic comment for my 10,000th post, here is the turtle code for you all to play with: http://pastebin.com/veG0F6ny

Before you use it, please do the following (1 and 3 should only need to be done once):
1. Save a completely empty program as "recoverFile" (without quotes, case sensitive)
2. Place your refuelling enderchest in slot 15, and your unloading enderchest in slot 16
3. Set the program to run at startup so it can recover. I'm pretty sure you will need to edit "startup" and save it as: shell.run("program name")
4. Chunkload the whole area it will be mining in.
5. Keep it far away from anything that shouldn't be mined which you cant replace.
The reason is because, if the server crashes or switches off when the turtle is in the middle of moving or rotating, it will not record the fact that the movement has taken place, and will carry on as if it hadn't taken place. As I said before, there is nothing I can realistically do about that.

It shouldn't do, but give me a shout if anything goes horribly wrong and i'll try and fix it

thanks for that, i have a question though, if you were to leave a trail behind the turtle could you not refference that trail in its memory?

i.e. leave the ender chest behind the tutlre in the midle of the tunnel
M M M
B T B
B E B
(As seen from above

E being the ender chest
B being blocks
T being Tutlre
M blocks to mine

a quick check of the turtle when it starts up : is chest in position 15? y/N
n = find chest and orientate to continue mining.

may use Torches which can be easyerly automated crafting, find torch, find next torch then postion at end of torch and continue?
 
Its a nice idea in theory, but the problem is the turtle would need to go back and collect the enderchest afterwards because it can only mine the blocks directly in front, above and below it. If the turtle had a larger mining range then I would probably try and do that
 
cheers for that fastcraft has boosted my fps so its playable ive noticed aswel i have 4gb allocated but it only uses up about 1.5-1.7gb at the most is there a way to get it to use more and hope it makes it run smoother or isn,t that possible
