Hey guys, first post.
I wrote this program to plant, grow, cut down, and deliver Redwood to a chest. I was looking for feedback on my code as well as some commands I'm not sure how to implement.
I would like for the functions to be contained within a program that would make sure the turtle has flint/tinder, saplings, and fuel and if any of these things were false he would send a message to a computer that would notify me. This is where my lack of knowledge stops me.
As far as this program is concerned, it works perfectly. It's just manually activated each time.
