Hey guys, Im not really to much of a coder but I do know the basics and how to use google. So far ComputerCraft has really gotten me thinking along some new lines. I have a few programs cobbled together from other sources and modified but now I am seeking some help in moving them to the next level of complexity.
I have a wireless turtle program to recieve commands from a computer, a computer program to send those commands, and a thrid program that I am trying to figure out how to integrate.
here is the computer.
here is the little bit of code I have so far for the host to recieve and store the direction and distance to move.
this works just fine, however I am totally stuck on sending this to the client.

print("type move to run the move program")
digBot = 0
digBot2 = 1
digBot3 = 20

digBot5 = 19
digBot6 = 5
direction = 0
distance = 0
rednet.open('right') -- open wifi port
while true do -- start infinite loop
key = read()
if key == 'down' then
rednet.send(digBot, 'down')
print('sent down')
rednet.send(digBot2, 'down')
print('sent down')
rednet.send(digBot3, 'down')

turtle.forward()

end
end
-- turtle
write("host id #")
sender = read()
--ask for host id
shell.run('clear') --clear the screen
rednet.open("right") --open the wifi port
x=1
while x == 1 do --start loop
action, senderID, text = os.pullEvent() --wait for input
if action == "rednet_message" then --if its a wireless message do
if text == 'down' then
shell.setDir('rom')
shell.run('/rom/down')-- go forward
print(working)
end
if text == 'dig' then -- if the up button is pressed
shell.setDir('rom')
shell.run('/rom/dig', '30')
print(working)
end
end
end
args = {...}
args2 = tonumber(args[2])
while true do
if args[1] == 'left' then
turtle.turnLeft()
while args2 > 0 do
turtle.forward()
args2 = args2 - 1
end
turtle.turnRight()
break
end
if args[1] == 'right' then
turtle.turnRight()
while args2 > 0 do
turtle.forward()
args2 = args2 - 1
end
turtle.turnLeft()
break
end
if args[1] == 'forward' then
while args2 > 0 do
turtle.forward()
args2 = args2 - 1
end
break
end
if args[1] == 'back' then
while args2 > 0 do
turtle.back()
args2 = args2 - 1
end
break
end
if args[1] == 'up' then
while args2 > 0 do
turtle.up()
args2 = args2 - 1
end

end

turtle.down()
args2 = args2 - 1
end
break
end
end
here is the little bit of code I have so far for the host to recieve and store the direction and distance to move.
if key == 'move' then
print("what direction")
direction = read()
print("how far")
distance = tonumber(read())
print(distance)
print(direction)
end
this works just fine, however I am totally stuck on sending this to the client.
