[indent=1]- Quarry[/indent]
[indent=2]Set up:[/indent]
[indent=3]
Spoiler
[/indent][indent=3]Go to ' Controls -> Assign Quarry' to begin setting up an area for your turtles to mine.[/indent]
[indent=3]The quarry area can be pictured as a square from above, with the upper two corners pointing north.[/indent]
[indent=3]Press ' ESC ' to get out of the computer and then ' F3 '. There you will see which direction you are facing behind the 'f: '[/indent]
[indent=3]Enter the coordinates of two of the diagonal cornes and let the program enter the otherones for you.[/indent]
[indent=3]Now enter at which height the turtles will start mining at and at stop at ('Quarry Start Y' and 'Quarry End Y')[/indent]
[indent=3]'Quarry Size' I usually set to 8 to make the effeciency/time higher. It determines how big an area one turtle should mine at a time.[/indent]
[indent=3]' Border Size ' determines how many blocks to skip between each of the turtles' mining areas. (Can be set to 0)[/indent]
[indent=3]' Auto Assign ' makes the program automaticly send the turtles out to mine when a request is received. (Current requests are not!)[/indent]
[indent=3]To dispatch already received requests go back to the main menu by pressing 'Back' and then go 'Job Queue'. Navigate to individual requests[/indent]
[indent=3]by pressing '<<', '>>'. '||' sets selection back to 1. Right-click for secondary aciton.[/indent]
[indent=3]To dispatch all requests set to automatic press 'Manage Queued Auto Jobs' and watch the magic happen[/indent]

[indent=3]Next up is to give the turtle an ID, make sure to use and unique ID for each of your turtles.[/indent]
[indent=3]Press ' F3 ' and look at which y-coordinate your at and then decide at which height the turtle should travel at when going places in 'Travel height'[/indent]
[indent=3]Then go 'Next->'. Now you can enter at which direction the fuel-chest and drop-off-chest is located at.[/indent]
[indent=3]Go 'Next->' and now you get to choose whether to enter the coordinates of your turtle manually or with GPS (if you have one set-up nearby)[/indent]
[indent=3]Go 'Next->' again and enter the coordinates for the home of the turtle[/indent]
[indent=3]Once again go 'Next->' and now which coordinate the turtle should go to when entering and leaving the home[/indent]
