Hi, I am planning on having my world pretty much ran by turtles doing things by themselves…
So I was wondering if you could direct me to the things I need help with :D/>

Help with:

~ Go to Program(s) ~ This would send the turtle to the place you name and tell it to go to.
~ ~ For example:
~ ~ ~ "goto set [name of place] [coords of place]"
~ ~ ~ "goto [name of place]"

~ Which turtle to use for automatic tree farm, so it can plant, grow and chop the trees by itself, also which programs would you recommend to edit to making it put stuff in chest(s)?

~ Any ideas on block detection?
~ ~ For example:
~ ~ ~ The turtle would follow a cobblestone path on the floor.

Help is very welcome ;-)
(I stopped coding Lua a while ago, and I'm trying to get back into it)

There are different GPS turtle programs, that would be a nice solution for your 1. request
To the second request you can check out my program (which will be updated now to put stuff in chests, wait for Version 2.1.2): http://www.computerc...ith-buildcraft/

To your third request there are also a few programs which do this quite well, I will add a link soon

Edit: Version 2.1.2 with your desired feature out now
