I'm just starting out with the turtle, messing around in a survival world using Feed the Beast.
I made a simple program. By simple I mean literally this:

turtle.forward()

My turtle doesn't do anything when I run it. It has fuel, and I tried multiple directions(up, down).
It will dig if there is a block in front or below if I tell it to.. but that's it. Am I doing something wrong? Or is it the FTB messing something up?
Thanks guys!

The only reason it would not move is because it does no thave fuel. If you just put the fuel in one of the slots, that does not refuel it. Put fuel in slot 1, type "lua", then type "turtle.refuel()". That should refuel your turtle.

Haha, I had the same problem once, and then I edited the config to not need fuel.

Even easier, the refuel program.

What? How to activate it and why do I not need it for things like the standart "tunnel" programm?

[Cranium]

You need to type "refuel" in the interface. And the "tunnel" program does not refuel itself.

Lol, this is the funniest thing i've ever seen on this form. However, I built a nuclear reactor that used a wireless turtle to turn it on/off and I did the same thing you did. I hit the off button, walk away, come back, CRATER. =o
