while I'm just guessing here but could you not change all pixels at the same time by broadcasting to all turtles? I know it would all be the same color but it would be extremely fast.

Yes you could broadcast to the turtles(thats what i use for syncing the screen), all of the shown programs besides pixletester uses broadcast

KingMachine: during the beta painters never broke, so i had no need to change them :ph34r:/>/> However, if i were to do this again i would use everlasting painters or a painterturtle(both thanks to hackingroelz).

That's true. :D/>/>
In fact, you could have sort of a "diagnostics turtle" that would go through and turn all of the turtles on, while at the same time returning the ID of the turtles for the main computer to create the "turtle mapping" that the OP described.

Turning on is simple. Mapping too.
More interesting would be providing colored painter when it is done.

I can suggest you some way to painter replacing if you interested. RP2 or CC only way.

you can also just create a computer that writes a custom startup disk for each computer, also with the computer peripheral you can get each of the ids

What if you had a regulator on each turtle providing hm with color? pain though that would only support 9 colors.

and will not eject empty painter.
Imho Eloraam should extend regulator to 4*4. Especially for 16 colors.

Does Anyone know what he used to make the turtle use the painter?

I mean, if he just manually tracks color remaining, he could then have a resupplier send to the right place
