Hey.

I've made some CC programs. But when i copied my saved file (in appdata) and pasted it into another PC, then when it loads the world, i want some computers/ turtles, to boot directly when the world is loaded. Is that possible? If yes, then how can i do that?

thanks!

I believe if you write a startup program, the computer will start when the world loads and run that program.

Ehm. I am writing it as a startup program, but can i change the pc/ turtle to boot when world loads, in the config file, or. Just because that i wont be able to rightclick the PC

Mikk, if you have a file in your computer or turtle's root directory named startup, it will execute. I have a logging turtle set up that way that goes into logging mode as soon as the world loads. The only caveat is that either I need to be in range of that chunk or I need a chunk loader present otherwise no turtle will boot until I enter the area.
