Turtle Tweaks (API)

Annoyed by 'turtle.digUp()' and 'turtle.inspectDown()', ect?

Wish they were 'turtle.dig("top")' or 'turtle.inspect("bottom")' ?

You've come the the right place!


Turtle Tweaks

Lets you pass sides to the turtle functions!

The API doesn't change the behavior of the default functions,
so it won't break existing scripts!

New Functions:

Spoiler

See below for valid sides and directions

turtle.move( direction or side )
turtle.place( side )
turtle.dig( side )
turtle.detect( side )
turtle.inspect( side )
turtle.suck( side )
turtle.compare( side )
turtle.attack( side )
turtle.drop( side )
turtle.equip( side )

Google '<function> computercraft' to find the CC Wiki entry for each function
I'm not going to link them all :P/>

Valid Sides for most functions (pass as a string):

front,up,down

Valid Sides for 'turtle.equip'

left,right

Valid Directions:

forward,left,right,back,up,down

Note: left and right turn the turtle, and don't require fuel.

Passing an invalid side will throw the error '<side you gave> is not a valid side'
'turtle.move()' will error with 'Not a vaild side or direction'


All original functions will work.
For example, 'turtle.dig("front")' is the same as 'turtle.dig()'

"The API doesn't change the behavior of the default functions", might be a good alternative?

Other than that seems nice and to the point
