gollark: You can.
gollark: Basically everywhere! They're faster and don't potentially interfere with other programs.
gollark: Just replace `turnleft` and such with `turtle.turnLeft()`.
gollark: Oh, and the problem is that you have a lot of lines like `turnleft` which aren't actually doing anything and are invalid syntax.
gollark: Why do you have that bit anyway? Why not call `turtle.forward` directly when you're using it?
