Introduction

Welcome to this tutorial about Turtle Stairbuilders.

Programming your Stairbuilder

In this code we will program a stairbuilder that simply goes up a flat surface, when the wall ends it will create a stairway coming off of the wall

First we want it to determine the top of the wall

while turtle.detect() do
 turtle.up()
end

next we want it to decend one block and create the staircase

while turtle.detect() do
 turtle.up()
end
turtle.down()
turtle.back()
turtle.place()
while not turtle.detectDown() do
 turtle.back()
 turtle.down()
 turtle.place()
end
print("Staircase Built")

And there's your code!

Uses

With a little modification this can be used in ravines to go up or down. It can be very useful in the nether if you're stuck or are fighting off a ghast. This program can also be used creatively in multiplayer RPG games to traverse difficult obstacles.
