I want my turtles, all my turtles to have access to a suite of progams I made, there used to be a way of doing this in old CC but it doesn't appear to work anymore, is there a way that I can set up a directory in my minecraft install that the turtles will read and say hey there's these programs in there!?

Thanks,



Lucifael

Yes. Go into your minecraft folder. Go to the mods folder. Extract the Computercraft zip. Add you programs to the correct folders (hint, the Lua folder contains the directory), and zip everything back up.

This is by no means a good idea, but you can do it. Otherwise, just always place down your turtles next to a disk drive with an installer/labeller startup. Labels so they won't lose the programs should they get picked up.

You can use 7zip and such to add files to a zip without having to extract the whole thing.

No need to zip everything back up.

All you have to do is unzip, changed the folder to "ComputerCraft" – remove the version number and delete the zip folder, and it should work.
