Hello MinecraftCommunity,
it's me again, and this time i presenting you my Items Sorting Turtle.
This Turtle will set up a layout and then takes out item stacks from a chest to put these in a chest for each individual kind of item. This could be used for items from a quarry. Now with rednet!!!
Feel free to leave feedback on this to keep me updating.

ITEMS SORTING TURTLE BETA 0.4.1+

Installation:
Install the program with the following code typed in your turtle:
pastebin get hcwy8SQ2 ist
Programs:
Type
istin your turtle to start the program and get into the menu.
Build standard layout
This program needs a mining turtle. I will change this in the future, so a normal turtle will be enough.
Place the Turtle on the ground. It needs one block space in the front and two to the left. The back will be the user interaction and where the chests will be displayed. Its accually the front
The chests where the items will be stored after sorting them, will be build to the right. Examples down below.
If you start the program, it asks you how many horizontal chests you want. This means how many lines of chests will be set up. The bigger this number is, more space is needed to the right.
The second question is how many vertical chests you want to have for the storage. The bigger this number is, the higher will be the whole storage.
After typing in the two numbers, it will show you how many items you need:
In this case i wanted three horizontal chests but just one height.
I put the needed materials allready in the slots of the turtle.
This will build the sorting layout you can see at the top of this post.
The pattern of the materials needed for this program is like the following picture:

After pressing Enter the Turtle should start building it. Stay back and be sure nothing blocks the turtle.
If the Turtle finished its job, it stays in the base. From there you can start the sort program.
Build compact layout
Does the same like the standard layout building program above.
You dont have to use chests to run the program. You can place them manually later on if you want to.If you use chests, the Turtle needs chests which dont connect to each other. If you place the chests manually, you can make a crossed pattern with normal chests and another kind of chest. (If trapchests are avaiable i recommand these!)
You have to use the sorting program for compact layouts!
Start standard sorting
This is the main program of the pack.
Place the items you want to sort into the bottom left chest (lowerst one of the four ones! You can put an enderchest there, too).
Above this chests, put some coal or charcoal. At least ten.
The last two chests should be empty. The Turtle will drop all items which couldn't be sorted in these top chests.
The Turtle needs two coal or charcoal in the last slot (bottom right).
After starting the program the Turtle will take out the materials from the lowest chest and sort them into the other ones to the right. If one of the chests are empty, it automatically fills it with an item which wasnt sorted allready. However, you can put one item you want to have sorted in the chest in it.
If one chest is full, the turtle continues sorting and maybe put it into an empty chests further right. If the turtle reaches the last chest and there are still items left in the inventory, these items will be dropped in the top two chests near the base.
If this was too confusing, just try it out! It makes sense
Start compact sorting
This program does the same like for standard sorting. It just travels one block instead of two to get to the next chest.
Example:
Check out the picture at the top of this post. I wanted 3 horizontal and one vertikal chest.

To-Do:
- a normal turtle can build the layout
More programs made by myself:
Items Sorting Turtle --- Set up a sorting layout with chests and let it sort items for you. Perfect for Quarries!
ULTIMATE WOOD CHOPPER --- Set up a farm to chop wood or cut down single 1x1 or 2x2 trees.
Turtle Interactions - Simply naviagate the turtle with a menu
Two High Door - Opens one or more two high doors over rednet.
That's it! I hope i didn't forget anything. Btw, my english isnt the best :/
Because the program is still in beta i cant say that it is bugfree!
If there are any questions, suggestions, errors or bugs, feel free to leave a comment to improve this program pack.
Thank you for your attention.
