[Mod] Mobs Redo [1.34] [mobs]

[TenPlus1]

Update: Added explosion routine for exploding mobs (and Dungeon Master)... Removed footstep feature (use replace instead)...

And for good show here's an exploding mob to try out, Davedevil's Creeper mod...

[Minetestforfun]

Don't you consider the same system you use actually for the NPC on the wolf ?

The purpose is to tamed the wolf in exchange of 4 raw_meat, after that the wolf became a dog (with a different texture, maybe a brown texture) and follow and protect you.

If we can health the dog is exchange of raw_meat, like bread for npc, it will be a great thing...

I think we will add this feature in MinetestForFun server, i just want to know if you have already do this work or i need ton implement i myself :)

Thank you in advance for your answer

(PS : thank you for your great improve of the explosion ;))

[TenPlus1]

The author of pmobs has done just that and has the ability to tame wolves into dogs and make npc's into guards... Why add when it's out there already :)

[Minetestforfun]

Ok thank you for the information, i will add an issue on your github this night for the integration of wolf/dog tamed/follow and protect players ;) (the code need to be re-organized and tweaked)

I need also to update the API and integrate ghoat/zombies this night... :p

[TenPlus1]

Minetestforfun: Mobs Redo was created as a base for other mobs to be added through user mods, not to include all mobs in one package which would end up huge... Let's keep the zombies and wolf/dog in a separate mod...

[Minetestforfun]

Yes i understand your point of view,

In an other side, i've already suggest it but, it will be a good thing to create a branch in your repository for a "full mobs pack" :)

[TenPlus1]

It's not that difficult to install additional mobs using Mobs Redo as a base and their are plenty available:

Slimes (for above)

[Don]

That's Mr Goat to you.

I love that goat.
It would be great if you could put this list on the first post.
Might help a lot of people to know which mobs are supported by Mobs Redo

[TenPlus1]

Good point Don, will do just that...

[TenPlus1]

Added flying and swimming routine to mob api by using fly=true/false and fly_in="air" or "default:water_source" for fish...

As a test here is BlockMen's Ghost mob to try out:

[Minetestforfun]

I met a problem with the zombies you linked in your latest posts.

Your converted version seem to have a strange colisionbox... they are half under the node they walk... Can you check it please ? :)

[TenPlus1]

Minetestforfun: I've just tested the Zombie mob again and it works fine... It walks on the ground without a problem and jumps up to higher levels to get the player... Are you running the latest Mobs Redo and Zombie mod on their own to test or alongside other mods ?

[Bread]

How can I break Cobweb I placed? I cannot break it with my hand even though steel pickaxe.

[TenPlus1]

swords are generally used to break cobwebs and give string.

[Bread]

Thank you TenPlus1. I have broken it with steel sword and received one string. I understand that Wooden or Stone sword do not work for it.

My bad, it works now.
I used the colisionbox of the dirtmonster instead of the zombie of your file (I copy/paste this value by mistake...)

[mahmutelmas06]

Defense subgame's mobs would be nice in mobs redo.

Most mobs spawns on Dirt with grass so my garden was like a zoo and they spawns even after killed many times:D

[TenPlus1]

That's why I also added support for Ethereal mod so that each mob has it's own areas to spawn in instead of default grass...

We are currently working on the minotaur mobs, and it's almost over (we were forced to rotate the blend file because of the different API...)

[Achilles]

Is it possible for more marine or water mobs to be made? Some hostile, some friendly? E.g. Star fishes, Octopuses, Sharks and Giant Squids? Maybe even a Loch ness monster?

[Nubm]

Thanks for the great mod! I have some questions however:
- The sheep is missing parts of it. It has no legs and there are only two planes at the body that does not close. Everything else works fine. What could cause this? Im using latest release (0.4.12)
- Zombies in the caves, and sometimes other mobs outside disappear on proximity. They move and act normal until i get close.
- The 'Pets' (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24-ny1lg_eI) will despawn if i walk too far away. As i understand they will stay if i feed the kittens with fish and the bunnehs with carrots? (Dont have those mods installed atm). Love the design of the Pets tho. :)
- I made a set of ceramic tools with high durability. However, if i hit a mob it decreases the durability pretty fast. Also spamming weapons seems to do no damage (yet pushback) until the weapon is back in its resting position. So i can kill a zombie with a few hits if i wait for the weapon to go back, and need to hit it like 12 times if i just hold the mouse button. The TTK seems equal. Is this working as intended?

[TenPlus1]

Numb: Sheep display fine here, no problems with model or texture at all...
Mobs have a lifetimer so they dont stay in game permanently until they are tamed, when it hits 0 and you are close they will be removed...
Hitting a mob with a weapon has to be done induvidually and cannot be spammed, remember weapons tend to have a 1 second hit gap (will look into durability)...
Pets can be tamed and mated, if you look at the wiki on github.com/tenplus1/mobs it will tell you all :)

[Nubm]

Well, i was just stupid. Misa has overwritten the sheep texture. Deleted those and sheeps are fine now.
The sudden mob disappearance seems only to occur when i charge at them. Also they don't display a despawn notification in chat if they do so.
I installed your farming mod, but couldn't find any carrots so far. Btw, any texture packs that support your mod? As said, i run Misa, mixed with some random other texures for the mods that are not supported (partially edited to fit in).
When i install the fishing mod i get an error:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

So no fishies for the kittens, hope you don't mind if i change the fish with milk, or rats, or ... maybe switching some berrys in the farming mod to catnip since some berrys are already obtainable from bushes, like rasberrys. :)

Also i've traveled some distance but never saw any pigs or bees (i checked the textures this time).
And the egg rate could be lowered by a lot. Had a Chicken close to my house, and when i walked in that direction i found the whole hill covered in eggs. :o
I think someone suggested despawn timer for the (deployed) eggs as well.

[TenPlus1]

I tend to use the John Smith texture pack when on Xanadu server as this replaces the default textures as well as the Ethereal mod one's also...

I noticed that Pets return to their untamed state when picked up. Not as a request but as a question, is it possible to make different textures for tamed pets, like collars or something?
Also rats would make great pets as well, tamed with cheese. :)

[ExeterDad]

It is indeed possible. I have some rough "proof of concept" pets I made for Mobs Redo in one of my computers that I didn't finish up.

[TenPlus1]

Let's have a peek ExeterDad :)

[TenPlus1]

After some forum reading a few folk requested a modular version of Mobs Redo where you can enable/disable any of the mobs easily, so here is my 1st attempt at a MOBS modpack that lets you do just that :)

Note: Please make sure the 'mobs' mod itself is enabled as this contains the api for everything to work... enjoy!

[ExeterDad]

This modular api will make a bunch of people happy.
I'd like to see hooks throughout the api so a added mod can add behaviors to the loop without having to touch the api code. If it was php I could implement it. But I've yet to attempt to expand my lua skills so I'm no help.

That's right. Sapiers animals modpack has those hooks, and this mobs mod here would profit a lot from them as well.

TenPlus1, please take a look at api.lua - that's the api of sapier's animals modpack and may be of help in creating an api for the mobs mod.
