greetings oostwolder AKA remco

Write your own code, if you have problems, you can ask here.
We can help you debug your program, but we won't write it for you.

[oostwolder]

oke well then i quit because i have done every thing to build it and i am sick about it that it is not working

[oostwolder]

it is not that hard to make a simple program for me is it

[LBPHacker]

That's why you should start writing it. Yeah, it doesn't seem to be hard (even if I still have no idea what do you want to accomplish), but "Ask a Pro" means asking a pro about what's wrong with your code, not asking a pro to write a program for you. We can't help if you have no idea what we're doing.

Anyway, start writing the program, and come back here if you get stuck.

I have made this simple script for you:

[oostwolder]

if it works, I am very satisfied
I just asked for a program and yes I've tried to create a program itself but
it still did not work

[oostwolder]

this program i get a error

( pipe:12: attempt to preform arihmetic __add on nil and number


programm mayde bij pro coder

[spyman68]

Ok first of all, "Pro Coder" isn't his name, that's his status, second of all, what's up with your horrible grammar? And finally, if you get an error, try to solve it your self. Don't be a lazy bum and have other people do it for you.

[Engineer]

Fixed, same pastebin code.

Edit: if it doesnt do what you want it to do, than you really should get into programming. And LUA isnt that hard to learn, take a look in the tutorial section or read this.

[oostwolder]

oke thats it i dont ask you nothing any more i just askt it normal spoiled kids that know something about lua and dont want to make a simple programm and maybe a tip for you if you dont want to make somthing or you only talk shit stop posting on a forum


realy i thought on a forum we help every one but i thats a dream i think

[oostwolder]

again a error engineer


i get 18:expected number




thanks already

[Spongy141]

Look, "Ask a Pro" is to ask for help about a program you have made already. If you do not have code you need help with, please do not ask for us to make you a program, most people on this forums will not, your lucky engineer is nice enough to help you out and even make you a program, so either show us the code that has a error, or take this to a PM with engineer.
EDIT: Also not to be rude, but your English is horrible, how do you expect us to read what you need help with if you spell most of what your trying to say wrong?

We are here to help.............. you fix problems with the program you have attempted to make. we are not here to do the code for you, "we are not code monkeys" and quite honestly if you want someone to make a program for you in the real world they WILL charge you for it...

You have hit a lucky day, as Engineer must have been bored, he has the same sentiment as all of us... Better problem descriptions are always helpful for us to point you in the right direction on how to make the program yourself and then we are always here to help during the process...

Now as for the error on line 18 I am unsure why you are getting this as line 18 should not be causing that. Does your line 18 perfectly match line 18 here http://pastebin.com/kpkApch3 ?

I couldn't agree more. OP, you're damn lucky you got someone to write code for you, as that hardly ever happens here. Lua is really easy to learn, and everyone is here to help you, so you have no excuse to not learn it.

[LuaEclipser]

people who know LUA and will not server you like kings are not sppoiled. your spoiled. they took the time to learn LUA. you, on the other hand, are cumming to a forum where you LEARN programming and are asking for people to do it for you. if i were engineer, i would be extremely insulted that he coded a program for you and all you can do is complain.

i am asking for this thread to be locked

Not to be rude, but its Lua* not LUA, lol I used to make that mistake also.

Your the kind of person who doesnt want to learn English. Im also dutch.

But to get back on topic before a moderator locks this thread;

Pastebin link got deleted so I will post it here:

local tArgs = {...}

if not tonumber(tArgs[1]) then
   error("Number expected, got "..type(tArgs[1])
end

if turtle.getFuelLevel() < tonumber(tArgs[1]) then
   print("Refuel me!")
   error()
end

local total = 0
for i = 1, 16 do
   local count = turtle.getItemCount(i)
   total = total + count
end

if total < tonumber(tArgs[1]) then error("Too few items") end

for i = 1, tonumber(tArgs[1]) do
	for i = 1, 16 do
	   if turtle.getItemCount(i) > 0 then
		  turtle.select(i)
		  turtle.placeDown()
		  turtle.forward()
	   end
	end
end

Last time that I helped you, since you kinda make the people of my country a shame..
