MiscPeripherals

_Frickin' turtles with frickin' mining lasers attached to their frickin' side!_

Just a compendium of peripherals I have created with the help of the wonderful people on IRC and ForgeCraft.

### Miscellaneous Tweaks

• Peripheral Wrappers: You can use the following items as peripherals:
• - Most Railcraft rails you can modify (set/get)
• - Portal Gun Aerial Faith Plates (setHPower/setVPower/getPower/setPowered/getPowered) and Portal Spawners (setGun/setColor/getPortal/setPowered/getPowered)
• - Thermal Expansion Tesseracts (getFreq/setFreq/getType/getOwner/getMode)
• Built-in programs installed when attaching anything MiscPeripherals (except turtle tools) to a computer or turtle: convertnbs diamondpipe energyarray gates gradient music playsng reactorcontrol readbee readcart readtree wrpulse

### Charge Station

Turtles parked on one of the dotted sides (use a wrench to change those) will be recharged at a maximum rate of 1 fuel point per tick per turtle (but it will be faster if you're charging only 1 turtle in a higher tier station!) using energy from various mods.

• Standard (IC2, BuildCraft, Thermal Expansion): Stores 500 fuel points and charges 1 turtle at a time
• Advanced (IC2): Stores 5,000 fuel points and charges 2 turtles at a time
• Lapotronic (IC2): Stores 50,000 fuel points and charges 4 turtles at a time
• Ultimate (GregTech): Stores 500,000 fuel points and charges 6 (may be limited by cabling) turtles at a time

The IC2 part takes up to LV, MV, HV and EV respectively. The BuildCraft part takes up to 20tier MJ/t.

### Iron Note Block

Peripheral that lets a computer play any note from any instrument available in note block form. You can also craft it alongside a turtle to make a Note Turtle. Exposes a single function, playNote(instrument,note) where instrument is 0 for piano, 1 for bass drum, 2 for snare, 3 for clicks or 4 for bass guitar, and note is 0-24 in number of right-clicks. The Minecraft Wiki has comprehensive documentation on Note Blocks if you need it.

### Feeding Upgrade

Craft it alongside a turtle to make a Feeding Turtle. Exposes a single function, feed() which tries to feed an animal in a 3x3x3 area (centered around the turtle) using the contents of the selected slot. Returns true if an animal was fed, false if not.

### Chunk Loader Upgrade

Craft a Chunk Loader Module (shown above) alongside a turtle to make a Chunk Loader turtle. The module can be crafted with any of the following chunk loaders:

• Railcraft World Anchor (shown above)
• ChichenChunks Chunk Loader
• ChickenChunks Spot Loader (1x1 only)
• Additional Pipes Teleport Tether
• Steve's Carts Chunk Loader Module

It will keep the chunk the turtle is on loaded, but be advised that a world reload will reboot the turtle, until they implement persistancy. The radius of chunks that will stay loaded is configurable. Default is 0 for 1x1 (the chunk the turtle is on), can be set to 1 for 3x3 (chunks around the turtle), 2 for 5x5 and so on. The default Forge chunk loading settings allow for up to 5x5 - those can be changed in config/forgeChunkLoading.cfg under maximumChunksPerTicket.

### Laser Upgrade (IC2)

Craft a mining laser alongside a turtle to get a Laser Turtle. If attacking, the turtle shoots a Mining laser, if digging, the turtle shoots a Low Focus laser. Requires the amount of EU for that mode (1250 or 100 respectively), converted into fuel (divide by 50 by default) and rounded up.

Right now the turtle does not automatically suck the drops, but I'm planning on making the upgrade do so.

### Resupply Upgrade and Resupply Station

Craft a Resupply Module alongside a turtle to get a Resupply Turtle. Also craft it like shown above to make a Resupply Station. The Resupply Upgrade exposes the following functions:

• `link()`: Links the turtle to a Resupply Station next to it. Returns true if successful, false if failed.
• `resupply(slot)`: Resupplies the given slot, needs at least 1 item to identify what needs to be resupplied. Returns true if successful, false if failed.
• `getError()`: If resupply failed, returns a string containing the error.

The Resupply Station is where Resupply Turtles will resupply from. The turtle needs to be linked with the station. Has a double chest worth of inventory.

### Solar Turtle (IC2)

After its successful Solar Helmet add-on product, included in the standard IC2 product, Ender Dragoon Technologies now presents the Solar Turtle! Craft a Solar Panel alongside a turtle to get a Solar Turtle. The upgrade harnesses the power of EU-fuel conversion to recharge a single fuel value every 50 ticks.

It is also available in Compact Solar variants if you craft a LV, MV or HV Solar Array alongside a turtle. Those recharge 1 f
