Okay so, I`ve just begun to start using to computercraft and I`ve come up the idea to have an automatic wheat farm. My goal is to have the farming turtle (version 1.4) either regular or wireless and have it:
1. Harvest the wheat from the farm
2. Replant seeds on the space where it just harvested
3. continue in a line with the process above
4. repeat on other lines of wheat (total 4 of about 14 spaces in length each with 1 space of water in between each line)
5. After harvesting and replanting in each space place harvested wheat in a specific chest and then return to start position.
I`ve experimented in creative mode a bit with the turtle and I can get it to move forward and harvest with some success, but It is very tedious and I have to place turtle.forward and turtle.dig repeatedly for how many spaces it goes across. There must be an easier way. I`m very new to this and don`t know any of the commands for replanting the seeds or detection or anything like that. I`ve done some research and watched some youtube videos, but many of them are very complicated and the lines of code are impractical for my situation. If needed I can provide screenshots and any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, if any other information is needed I can provide it. I`m using tekkit 1.2.5 with computercraft 1.4 and sphax purebdcraft texture pack.
Thanks.
