Title: Can you make a turtle auto-boot?

I know about automatically running scripts using startup. But that doesn't appear to be what I need. I'm trying to make "Turtle A" place "Turtle B" and have "Turtle B" begin running a program immediately. Currently I have to right click "Turtle B" once it's placed to make it boot, and therefore run startup.

Is there any way to make it autoboot?

No, but you can use the peripheral method "turnOn" to boot the computer from the turtle that placed it.

Thank you Lyqyd. I'll look into that.
