Hello
I would like to ask for a solution to make a watermill setup but with turtle(s)

That a turtle scoop up water with a bucket.
Sends that bucket to a watermill via pnumetic tubes (redpower2)

Empty buckets need to be brought back via a pipe to the turtle.

Basically the turtle is to act like a deployer block (redpower2)

Thanks to anyone that can help

to get this to work you would need 2 relays , and a retreiver along with the turtle

use item, drop direction of outgoing relay , it will go to the watermill then have the retreiver constantly pulsing to get the bucket back that passes into the relay that puts the empty bucket in the turtle

its 10x easier with rp alone

Hm can not test this at the moment but when the turtle is down in the water you should be able to select the slot with the bucket then use turtle.place to get a water bucket. Then move the turtle under the mill and use turtle.dropUp to put it in. And turtle.suckUp to get the empty bucket out again.

Edit: Testet my suggestion and it works.
1. Place a Turtle in the water or in front of watersource
2. Place the watermill above the turtle
3. pu a waterbucket in slot 1
4. put an empty Bucket in slot 2
5. put this script to the turtle and start it :)


wbs = 1 -- put waterbucket in this slot
ws = 2 -- put another empty bucket in this slot

while true do
turtle.select(ws)
turtle.place()
turtle.dropUp()
sleep(0.5)
turtle.suckUp()
if turtle.compareTo(wbs) then
sleep(15)
end
end

RP needs: 1 Filter, 1 Deployer, alloy Wire, Timer, pipes
CC needs: 1 Turtle :D
i would say with a turtle its 5 times easier :D
