Tunnel Boring Machine?

[SurrealDelight]

Is there a tutorial on how to build one of these? I would really like to make one.

I mean one with wireless redstone or with RP2. Not with RC since those are pretty bad.

Ummm... you'll have to be more specific then? Using frames or Turtles or...?

With Frames.

With Frames.

Or whatever is the fastest one.

Frames can have a built-in world anchor pushed along to make it so you don't need to be near it at all times, whereas wireless turtles have a limit of (from memory don't quote me on it) 5 chuncks or so.

Mining bores made from frames are rather complex to build at first but terrific for learning experiences. Turtles are probably faster but again have significant limitations for proper mining (they also require some lua knowledge or extensive tutorials). I'll have a quick look round to see if there is any video tutorials explaining what you need.

Okay :D

is a small quarry using frames which has a corresponding world save here

The videos on the side may also provide you with something you can use but that seems to be the simplest to recreate that I could find!

Good luck!

Sorry to bring up an old thread, does anyone here know of possible practices for drying/or removing water from wet (saturated) tunnel spoil?

Any form of help or advice would be most appreciated.

Cheers,

Nick

Turtles have no limit if they carry their own world anchors with them, and if their programming is all on-board.
