Help Needed to Use Minecraft Pi API on Cannon Tutorial.
Hi im a noob to the raspberry pi, and I have been having some problems with it. I was trying to use minecraft pi edition and it took me about 4 weeks to figure out how to download it... I don't quite understand the tutorials, I cant figure out where to put code to make it do different things, I don't understand commands (which ones do what and where to put them). I was looking at the cannon tutorial for minecraft, and I had a lot of trouble with it. There was a lot of code, so I went online with my pi and copy and pasted each file on GitHub to a tab in the LXTerminal's nano something or other, and downloaded the files and still the cannon didn't work. How do you make the code interact with Minecraft? On the video e typed stuff into a box or something. How do you do that? I am very confused. I would appreciate any help. Thanks a gigabyte!

Re: I'm a noob
Do you have a single, simple example which you cannot get to work? What have you tried? How does it fail? Do you have a tutorial you are trying to follow? You will need to be specific - referring to 'the video' or 'code box thingy' does not help anyone else to help you.
Can you do a simple 'teleport to a location and place a block' operation?
Everyone was a 'noob' at some stage. The Subject: line is best used to describe the issue you need assistance with - in this case, perhaps "Help needed to use Minecraft Pi API"

Re: I'm a noob
Sorry, here's a like to the tutorial http://www.stuffaboutcode.com/2013/04/r ... n.html?m=1 there's a video that shows the guy putting some commands in to control the cannon, but I cant figure out how to get that box up, or even what the box is. I also have no idea what to do with the stuff on GitHub. I basically need a very VERY specific tutorial.

Have you tried to do what that tutorial says? It's in a highlighted 'pull-up' box towards the end of the article. If that fails, what errors do you get?
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install git-core
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/martinohanlon/minecraft-cannon.git
cd minecraft-cannon
python minecraft-cannon.py
