I really do not like how I first presented myself on the forums here by making myself look like an idiot way over my head. I don't learn to use APIs that easy, I like templates and examples (interfaces do not count as templates). I love to code things in Java, and sometimes C#. When I am in Minecraft, I love to program in ComputerCraft until I am kicked out of the server for not moving. I know HTML, JavaScript, CSS, PHP, Lua, Java, and I am learning C#.

If you need more to help you understand I have been doing this longer then it may seem, here is my source for my other 2 mods.

I understand that it needs a little cleanup in some parts, I was aiming to do that once HP and Intel make my graphics card compatible with Windows 8.

EDIT: I feel that even the fact that I still have "Clueless" over my head means I am not appreciated the way I feel I should be. I am not trying to be boastful, I am trying to correct an opinion on me which I am doing my best to correct. Now the title could be because my account on the forums is fresh, but it would make me feel better to have it set to "Coder" or something. I am trying to be polite, and I do not mean to be pushy when I say that I want my title shifted, for I do not think it a promotion but a correction of opinion, which is what I am looking for. Thank you all for understanding. It is all that I ask for, understanding that I am not the amateur you think I am. I am not a professional either. If you feel like this is not enough and you need something else, I'll take my best shot.

Before I turn this into an essay (which I am very tempted to do), I just want to finish off by saying I am trying. If it is not enough for you, if you think I should give up now, just say so, but I am not taking this lightly. I would like to thank you for just simply reading what I have to say, but also to thank you for giving me a chance.

You forgot /end rant....
Nobody will think anything less of you, just because you have the title "Clueless". There are many forum members out there that have less posts than me, (thus a lesser forum title), and have a much better understanding of coding than I do. If you want to be considered a little better, why not participate on the forums a little more. I like to hang out on Ask a Pro, and help the new people. You will see that I post my own questions quite often as well. Get some more rep here on the forums, and nobody will look at the "Clueless" title, and start looking at your name.
Seriously. We are not bad people here, just a bit high strung when we are asked to help out...(Ask a Pro really is the reason. We answer questions over and over, so some of us get a little snarky... />
Either way, welcome to the forums, and I hope to see you some more, since you seem that you would be a great resource for ideas and help for some of the new guys, and even some of the veterans.

I can't see any issues with your code that jump out on me (except perhaps initing your variables in your mod constructor (should really move that to load()). However, here is a quick test peripheral I made.

And I'm not going to change your title without knowing you - the title will change automatically when you get enough posts. But the title has nothing to do with your experience, nor should it be treated as such.

Oh, I assumed it was awarded to you. Thank you for clarifying. I am now looking through your example and comparing to my own.

I think I found the problem but I have no way of knowing for sure because Minecraft still does not work on my computer. The only way I can ensure that it is working is if someone tries it (NOTE: Built for CC 1.4.1 (MC 1.2.5) due to status of EE3)

Download Client: https://dl.dropbox.c...le_build002.zip
Equivalent Exchange: http://www.minecraft...change-2-v1467/
Other Requirments: Minecraft 1.2.5, ComputerCraft 1.4.1

I would appreciate a screenshot proving you can craft it

My computer is finally fixed and I am going to start working more heavily on this now.

I'd love to test, please.
EDIT: Translation: I'd love to have divining turtles find diamond, mining turtles fetch the diamond, and meanwhile have destruction catalyst (destruction turtles?) go and do their thing in caves and bases.
