this is a program written for a digging turtle that travels along and replaces whatever dirt block is below it with a stone brick.
I'm having trouble with it however:
function digbuild() while turtle.detectDown() do turtle.digDown() turtle.placeDown() end end function edges() if turtle.detectLeft()then turtle.turnLeft() turtle.back() turtle.place() turtle.digDown() turtle.turnLeft() turtle.placeDown() turtle.turnLeft() else while turtle.detectRight() do turtle.turnRight() turtle.back() turtle.place() turtle.digDown() turtle.turnRight() turtle.placeDown() turtle.turnRight() end end end blocked = turtle.detect() if blocked ~= true then turtle.forward digbuild() else edges() turtle.forward() digbuild() end
i thought it was pretty robust and functional, but i seem to be doing something wrong with the functions, or the if-else statement, because it gives me an error when i run the program. (I named it roadbuilder)
the error message is as follows:
bios:337: [string "roadbuilder"]:34: '=' expected
why do i need an = at line 34? this doesn't make sense to me
any help would be appreciated! Thanks
