I am trying to get my turtle to drop his inventory after returning from a trip. This is the code for him to drop the stuff:
for i = 1,16 do
turtle.select(i)
turtle.drop()
end
print("dropped")
turtle.select(1)
It worked fine if I separate it into its own program, but the turtle ignores the turtle.drop() command completely in my code. I don't have anything I know of that could interfere with it. What could interfere with the drop command.

Huh. Okay, I'm stumped. That looks just like the code I use to dump inventory into a chest, and mine works fine.

Bleh, that's not the problem then. According to the wiki, the function only fails if the inventory in front of it is full. :/

What are you trying to drop it into? Have you tried it directly onto the ground? Its probably a physical setup issue.

Have you maybe overwritten the function in your code?

You were correct, Just figured it out after a night's sleep. The turtle was facing the disk drive and was probably trying to place all the inventory into the slot, but couldn't.
