Wireless

Hello, could some one give me a short tut on how to make a computer contact a wireless mining bot? I want to make it so then i can make ti tunnel and turn right from my house. Could some one give me a short list of commands?

You have to create your own commands. Here's a small example of what you need to do.

From your computer:

rednet.open("side") -- set to the side of your computer modem is on
rednet.send(turtleID, "forward") -- change turtleID to the turtles computer ID number, "forward" can be anything

The turtle:

local id, msg = rednet.receive() -- wait for an incomming rednet message
if msg == "forward" then -- if message is forward go forward
   turtle.forward()
end

I would put the turtle program in a while loop, so you don't have to restart the program all the time. And you forgot rednet.open("right") on the turtle. So that would be:

rednet.open("right") --a turtle's modem is always on the right side
while true do
local id, msg = rednet.receive() -- wait for an incomming rednet message
if msg == "forward" then -- if message is forward go forward
   turtle.forward()
end
end

for the turtle, and

rednet.open("side") -- set to the side of your computer modem is on
while true do
event, key = os.pullEvent("key")
if key == 200 then -- the up key
rednet.send(turtleID, "forward") -- change turtleID to the turtles computer ID number, "forward" can be anything
end
end

for your computer. Now try making a full remote-control program :P/>/>
