FarmOS v1.0 - Farm automatically with a turtle!

[dabudke]

I've been working on this for a while, and I'm proud to show it off! This discussion will show you how to get started with FarmOS, and help you get started on your path to automated farming.

Setup

Use these steps to set up your farming turtle with FarmOS, and get started with automated farming.

Setting up your farm

Using the blocks put in slots 1-3, plan out your farm. Till the ground, and plant seeds. Then, set your turtle on the home block with, one block in front of it, a chest above and a chest below.

Setting up your turtle

Setting up your turtle is easy, following the spreadsheet of slots. All you need to do is put the items in the correct slots.

To set up FarmOS, run this command: pastebin run LmdhxBVW and follow the prompts.

Troubleshooting

Home Obstructed

If you get the 'Home Obstructed!' message without a block in the way, do these steps:

1. Hold Control/Command + T until the output says Terminated.
2. Switch your fuel to the currently selected slot (it has a bigger outline)
3. Run the command refuel 1
4. Switch your coal back to the 4th slot
5. Reboot your turtle.

Could not refuel!

If you keep hearing a low ding, this is why. To fix this, all you need to do is put fuel in the fourth slot (you should be able to shift-click it in)

Can't move (obstacle in the way?)

This issue is caused by a block in front, above and below the turtle. I programed the turtle to be smart, so you shouldn't encounter this issue unless there is an issue with your farm setup. Here is how you fix it:

Turtle still on course:

1. Remove block from above/in front/below the turtle
2. Turtle should continue.

Turtle not on course anymore

1. Terminate FarmOS by holding Control/Command + T
2. When presented with a prompt, run the commands go <direction> to return to your course
3. Reboot your turtle.
