Hi People,

I am using CC on MC 1.4.7 with Miscperipherals and I am trying to build a nice code for enchanting with the xp turtles. Now, the problem where I run in to is that I want to build in a failsafe system. I am using a while true do loop to keep the program looping. Now my problem is that when you put a non enchantable (or no item) in it will exit the program when you try to enchant. Now that is understandable because the m.enchant() function will return false instead of true and so it will exit the loop. At least, so I thought...

code:

Spoiler

function GetLevels()
   m=peripheral.wrap("right")
   local Levels = m.getLevels()
   print("There are ".. Levels.." levels stored")
end

function Enchant()
   term.clear()
   term.setCursorPos(1,1)
   select(1)
   GetLevels()
   print("Enchanting item at Which Level?")
   m=peripheral.wrap("right")
   local LVLS = tonumber(m.getLevels())
   local EnchantLVL = tonumber(read())
   if EnchantLVL > LVLS then
	  print("Cannot enchant, not enough Levels available.")
	  sleep(2)
   else
	  m.enchant(EnchantLVL)
	  print("Enchanting succeeded, please check your item.")
	  sleep(3)
   end
end

while true do
   term.clear()
   term.setCursorPos(1,1)
   print("To enchant an item, place it in slot 1 and press any character key...")
   os.pullEvent("char")
   Enchant()
end

I tried putting in some stuff after the loop would finish:

function GetLevels()
   m=peripheral.wrap("right")
   local Levels = m.getLevels()
   print("There are ".. Levels.." levels stored")
end

function Enchant()
   term.clear()
   term.setCursorPos(1,1)
   select(1)
   GetLevels()
   print("Enchanting item at Which Level?")
   m=peripheral.wrap("right")
   local LVLS = tonumber(m.getLevels())
   local EnchantLVL = tonumber(read())
   if EnchantLVL > LVLS then
	  print("Cannot enchant, not enough Levels available.")
	  sleep(2)
   else
	  m.enchant(EnchantLVL)
	  print("Enchanting succeeded, please check your item.")
	  sleep(3)
   end
end

while true do
   term.clear()
   term.setCursorPos(1,1)
   print("To enchant an item, place it in slot 1 and press any character key...")
   os.pullEvent("char")
   Enchant()
end

term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
Print("Something went wrong with enchanting, please check your item and restart the turtle.")

And even later on Irealised functions are seen as a variable so I tried this:

Spoiler

function GetLevels()
   local Levels = m.getLevels()
   print("There are ".. Levels.." levels stored")
end
function Enchant()
   term.clear()
   term.setCursorPos(1,1)
   select(1)
   GetLevels()
   print("Enchanting item at Which Level?")
   local LVLS = tonumber(m.getLevels())
   local EnchantLVL = tonumber(read())
   if EnchantLVL > 30 then
	  print("Cannot enchant with more then 30 Levels.")
	  sleep(2)
   elseif EnchantLVL > LVLS then
	  print("Cannot enchant, not enough Levels available.")
	  sleep(2)
   elseif m.enchant(EnchantLVL) then
	  print("Enchanting succeeded, please check your item.")
	  sleep(5)
   else
	  print("Enchanting failed, either there is no item in slot 1, or it is not enchantable.")
	  sleep(2)
   end
end
m=peripheral.wrap("right")
while true do
   term.clear()
   term.setCursorPos(1,1)
   print("To enchant an item, place it in slot 1 and press any character key...")
   os.pullEvent("char")
   Enchant()
end

But it still exits the program without showing the text or clearing the terminal... Does the m.enchant() function make the program stop if it fails? Or what am I missing here?
