This has got to be a lie considering I cant watch a 10 min youtube video.

Probably due to your ISP having cache servers that suck (I'm guessing, not a pro :3)

#134647 Printer Levels Finder

You need to concatenate the strings. You can do this simply by adding the concatenation operator "..". So your print lines should be:

print("There are "..paper.." page(s) left")
print("You have "..ink.." ink left.")

I don't understand the chunk loader peripheral... Is there any API associated with the chunk loading turtle? I don't understand how to change the size of the area the turtle keeps loaded.

I'm pretty sure the purpose is to keep the turtle loaded (Which it does). So, there's no need to change the size.

Actually, using monitor_4 is correct for a wired modem connection. Since grabbing "top" would grab the modem(were that the side the wire was on), you have to use its name as the side. Everything else was right in Zoinky's post.

Oh, sorry. I haven't got to use wired modems yet :S

#116916 monitors flashing different colors for teleport

Posted by Zoinky on 10 May 2013 - 11:16 PM in Ask a Pro

You've wrapped the monitor incorrectly. You need to tell it what side the monitor is on, so

local mon = peripheral.wrap("monitor_4")

Should be:

local mon = peripheral.wrap("top") -- "Top" is the side that the monitor is on (Just an example)

Also, Lua is case sensitive. So line 36 should be

mon2.setBackgroundColor(colors.lightBlue) -- Notice the capital B, every word after the first usually has a capital letter.

EDIT: One more thing, just use sleep() instead of os.sleep()

Well, that's weird. Try change it to turtle.suck() and see what happens. Otherwise, I have no clue.

EDIT: Oh, so it's working now?

Make it print something after turtle.suckUp(). So you know it's actually running.

#100711 [Lua][Question] How do I add things into sub-tables?

Posted by Zoinky on 23 March 2013 - 04:04 PM in Ask a Pro

Hey, I was messing around with tables and I stumbled upon a problem. I'm not sure how to add things into "sub-tables".

Eg. If I had a table like so:

local exampleTable  = {
 {
   var1 = "Test"
 }
}

How would I add var2 into exampleTable[1]?

I've tried using table.insert() but I can't get it to put things inside the second table. Also, I'm really bad at explaining things. So this might not make any sense.

Could we see the code for your OS? You can't have the code pause, because then the function won't be executed until later.

Looked through the code really quickly and found a quick little bug. You can set all of the passwords to the same thing. This might be something to fix. Just saying. Also, you might add a three try before lockout function. Just an idea. Looks good though

There's no need to double post. Just use the 'Edit' button.

#84535 AI program

Posted by Zoinky on 06 February 2013 - 05:44 PM in Programs

Some of the code is from my old troll AI (I know it's not a AI, it was a joke). Plus, I think this is a modified version of a modified version of my code (Which was some really bad base code anyway).

#84512 <eof> error at else

Posted by Zoinky on 06 February 2013 - 04:34 PM in Ask a Pro

Tested Hellkid98's snippet on ccemu. Nothing wrong. Something has probably gone wrong while you were copying/pasting. You should look over the code you have.

#84505 [Lua] [Question] Is there a way to encrypt a program on CC?

Posted by Zoinky on 06 February 2013 - 04:19 PM in Ask a Pro

You can use programs people have created like Encer. But, obviously, you can't encrypt files then run them. You need to decrypt them when you want to use them.

#84159 [Bugs and derps!]EnderCalc v2.0

Posted by Zoinky on 05 February 2013 - 07:00 PM in Programs

I took a look at the code and noticed that you used recursion to restart your program, keep in mind that after many calculations the calculator will error. You should try use loops instead of recursions to fix this. Although, it's likely nobody will make over 200 calculations it's still probably something that would be good to fix. Anyway, nice program.
