Finally! After about a year of procrastinating, I have completed rewriting it into a less buggy program that does the same thing! (Plus more!) (With less bugs!) Introducing:


Tunnel x 2

It's double the tunnel!

What it does:

What this program does is makes a tunnel of a specified length. The turtle making this tunnel has maximum efficiency by mining up, down, left, right, and forward, mining 5 blocks per unit of fuel! If the inventory gets full, it will place a chest, empty the items, and continue mining the same tunnel. It automatically updates, and saves it's progress.

How to use it:

Known Bugs:

Changelog:

Additional Notes:
  • It's gravel-proof!
  • Mining turtle required. Works on advanced and normal.
  • In order to not use chests or torches, drop something else instead of torch or chest when it requests them. Keep in mind though that instead of placing the chest/torch it will place whatever you gave it.
  • Chest not required, although if no chest is provided, the turtle will just spew out the items into the side of the tunnel.
  • Torches not required.
  • Best used on the side of a mountain or chunk mine. Set StopOnBlockAb as true if you want it to come back when it reaches the other side, or a cave.
  • It automatically updates as of v2.2, so don't worry about coming back to the download link every day. You MUST have access to pastebin to auto-update, or you have to manually update it.
  • It automatically saves it's progress, so if the world shuts down, or it goes into an unloaded chunk, just find it and start up the program again. It will ask you if you want to resume, then say "Yes". Then you just turn it facing forward using the arrow keys, press enter, and it continues mining the same tunnel, to the original specified length.
Download:

v2.5: (Stable)

Please report any bugs or suggestions in this thread and I will do my best to accommodate you. Thank you and enjoy Tunnel x 2!

Sweet! Maybe you could make it place torches?
Also I put 100, but it kept mining for so far longer than 100.

I will have to take a look at that bug. What happened to make it do that? How many times did it come back to drop off items? I will look into torch placing in 1.1.

It never went to refill to the chest, because it never got full. I tried manually putting items in, and it just dropped the items it mined then.
EDIT: I am currently testing it with 20 blocks.

EDIT2: It stopped at 20 blocks, maybe before i guessed wrong (I didn't actually count the blocks)

First of all, sorry for the late reply.
Yeah, there is a problem regarding going long distances.


P.S. New Update! v1.3 out now! Working on v2.0.

Edit: Fixed in v2.0!

Updated to v2.2: Added auto-updating.
Currently working on saving when world exits, or it goes out of loaded chunks. Then you can continue mining.

Suggestion: customizable height, width and turning off torches and chests and ability to return and drop items at the beginning of the tunnel?
Anyways cool program, i like the save-ability ;)
