How to use
Almost everything in ASTU can be turned on and off, if one of the following features doesn't work make sure it's enabled in the config file.
IDetector
The crafting recipe for the IDetecting turtle is a turtle and a book.
The methods are:
IDetect() – detects the ID of the block in front of the turtle
IDetectUp()
IDetectDown()
You can use them like so:
Solar Turtles
Solar turtles are crafted with a solarr panel, these can be crafted like so:
Solar turtles have a random chance of gaining energy in sunlight
A solar turtle can check the current light level using this method:
name.getLightLevel()
Sonar turtles
Sonar turtles can be crafted using a jukebox.
name.detect() returns the distance between the turtle and the block in front of it.
Batch turtles
Batch turtles can be crafted using a batch pearl. These can be crafted with obsidian in the corners, diamonds on the side and an ender pearl in the middle
Batch turtles can run .bat files using name.run("Path")
Database Turtles
Database turtles are crafted with a database. A database can be crafted like so:
If RedPower recipes are disabled the RS latches are replaced with redstone.
Database turtles can learn blocks and items and store them in a database. This can be done using following methods:
name.setBlock(name, slotOfDatabase)
name.setBlockUp(name. slotOfDatabase)
name.setBlockDown(name, slotOfDatabase)
name.setItem(name, slotOfItem, slotOfDatabase)
To get the information of the database you can use these methods:
name.getBlock(slotOfDatabase)
name.getItem(slotOfItem, slotOfDatabase)
New in 1.35: labels. You can label a database like so:
name.setLabel(label, slotOfDatabase)
To view the blocks that are in a database, simply right click it and a gui will open.
Silk Touch Turtles
Silk touch turtles can be crafted using a silk touch diamond pickaxe. Silk touch turtles work the same as a normal silk touch pickaxe, so they can break all blocks a player can using it.

Speaking Turtles
