I just used it, I love it but….

Could you let the turtle do this:

Dig-MoveForward-DigUp

intstead of:

dig-moveUp-dig-moveDown-moveForward.

that could save some fuel, and make it faster :D/>

Yeah, Thank for the suggestion. I like that idea. :D/>

Oh yes! This is the mining program I've been looking around for!

Thank you very much

I cant get it to place torches for some reson

Make sure that they are in slot 1.

it sees the chest as fuel and uses it so its a bit annoying to refill the fuel. because when it places a chest it throws the coal in there as well :P/>

The big issue seems to be that when it drops a chest at the end of a run, it drops all items, including it's needed chests and torches down into it, leaving it with nothing for the second tunnel.

Not for me. for me it only throws everything but the torches and the chests. but then it tells it needs fuel and uses the chests, while there was coal in there. He should make the third inventoryslot the fuel slot!

Let me see if there is anything I can do to stop ir from using chest as fuel.
