Ranged Turtle - KnightMiner/KnightPeripherals GitHub Wiki

The ranged turtle is a turtle upgrade added by KnightPeripherals. It can automatically fire arrows, similarly to a dispenser only causing player kills.

Recipe

To create a ranged turtle, simply craft a turtle with a diamond hammer from Ex Nihilo.

Usage

When a bow is added to a turtle, it will automatically add several functions to the turtle API.

The bow adds three functions for ranged attacking:

• turtle.attack(): Fires an arrow in front of the turtle
• turtle.attackUp(): Fires an arrow above the turtle
• turtle.attackDown(): Fires an arrow below the turtle

The arrow will deal slightly more damage than an unenchanted vanilla bow, and trigger a player kill.

Result

The turtle will return true if an arrow was shot, or false if it was unable to shoot an arrow with one of the following errors:

• Block at target: A block is at the side where the arrow would have been launched.
• No arrows found in slot: The selected slot does not contain any arrows.
