Mods/TurtleMiner

TurtleMiner is a Mod that offers young Minetest-Builder the possibility to become a programmer using a tutle that can move around in a Minetest world. The Turtle can even dig and remove blocks or put block into the world.

The idea is not new but was already used in the programming language Logo, where a so called turtle was able to move and draw line graphics on the screen. The turtle behave like a robot and the programmer gives commands to it.

The Mod will offer in the futures different possiblities for users and even teachers to use the mod.

Types of Turtles

Altogether the Mod offers two types of MinerTurtles. Which one is used doesn't make any difference. The two types are more or less able to do the same things.

• 

  Techy MinerTurtle

• 

  Animal MinerTurtle

The Animal Turtle is may be more interessting for younger players and the Techy Turtle for more honourable intentions ... but you can use and prefere the turtle you want!
