For some reason, why I try to write a program involving the Turtles to move upwards, they don't want to. So I tried coding it singularly, as in I open up the lua API, and type in the prompt for the Turtle to move up. It keeps coming out false, as if there's something above it. Note: THERE IS NOTHING ABOVE IT!!! Can you fix this?

Does the turtle have fuel? Put some coal in the select slot and type 'refuel all' into shell.

Yes, I am putting in a stack of coal. I wouldn't even need that much if the dang turtle would just go up!!

Turtles should work, this can't be a CC bug and it's most likely to be caused by the user, please follow my steps or consult the wiki.

The coal has to be in the turtle's inventory, in your screenshot, there is coal in your inventory, but not the turtle's.

I hadn't put the coal in when I made that screenshot :/
And I figured out what was happening. I wasn't typing in the refuel prompt thing. I was still used to it not using anything. Is there a way I can turn off the fuel consumption thing, and go back to no fuel?

Yeah, if you go to configs in your .minecraft, find the file CCTurtle.config, then open it in a text editor (notepad or notepad++ work best) and you should find a section that looks like this:

####################
# general
####################
general {
   # Enable hardcore mode (turtles require fuel to move)
   turtlesNeedFuel=true
}

change true to false, so it now looks like this:


####################
# general
####################
general {
   # Enable hardcore mode (turtles require fuel to move)
   turtlesNeedFuel=false
}

unless your 1.41 or below (like me) then there is no refueling :P/>/>

Yes, but then I would have to go without item frames and pots, and those quaint little corner stairs that I have been wanting from the first day I used stairs in minecraft.
I will admit though, I have yet to find someone who hasn't decided to switch requires fuel to false.
