 Function turtle.forward | |
| Attempts to move the turtle forward. | |
| Syntax | turtle.forward() |
| Returns | boolean whether the turtle succeeded in moving forward |
| Part of | ComputerCraft |
| API | turtle |
Examples
 Example | |
| Tries to move the turtle forward and outputs whether it worked or not. | |
| Code |
if turtle.forward() then print ("Turtle moved forward.") else print ("Turtle didn't move forward.") end |
| Output | Turtle moved forward. or Turtle didn't move forward. |
| Example | |
| Tries to move the turtle forward x number of times. X is specified by the user and if the turtle can't move forward it will break the block infront of it. | |
| Code |
Arg = (...) -- gets the parameters from the user if Arg ~= nil then Arg = tonumber (Arg) -- make it a number a = 1 while a <= Arg do if not turtle.forward() then turtle.dig() turtle.forward() end a = a + 1 end else print ("Missing parameter.") end |
| Output | Either the turtle moving the specified amount of times or missing parameter. |
