Hi everyone! I have a turtle and I have refueled and chequed the turtle but when I move it says
lua:1: attempt to call nil
To show what my code looks like exactly I have a list of the code.
CraftOS 1.7
>refuel
Fuel is unlimeted
>lua
Interactive Lua Prompt.
Call exit() to exit.
lua>turtle.foward()
lua:1:1: attempt to call nil.
That is what it does
Please Help!
:unsure:/>

turtle.forward(), not turtle.forward()

Edit: apparently I'm too good to purposefully misspell it :P/>

Your post confused me for the longest time just now.

To clarify Cranium's post - you're missing an r in turtle.forward() (you typed turtle.foward() - note the missing 'r')

I didn't even realize that I'd not misspelled it. That's hilarious.
