Re: Post your modding questions here
There's a good example in the Lua API file, it shows how to set (and save) strings and how to create an inventory: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/lua_api.txt#L1405 You can use these functions basically everywhere but only callback functions like on_place really make sense, bec...

Is there a good guide to metadata anywhere?

Re: Post your modding questions here
If one wanted to make ambient mobs that at most disappeared and put an item or two in the inventory when a specific tool was used on it, would that be something to code from scratch, or use one of the existing mob APIs for? I'm doing a "bug collecting" mod for my first mod, but other than ...

Re: [Mod] Mobs Redo [1.31] [mobs]
So if I want to have my mod use this system, do I just package it in with the mod as a mod pack and do the usual credit giving and such? Also, just confirming that the API link is just the API, no mobs included, correct?

Re: Post your modding questions here
@DS-mintest Thanks - Still wondering how it screwed up the texture to that degree. Glad to also find out I can cut repeating that three additional times for the same texture And also thanks on the compliment - I used to do a lot of sprite art, and got a lot of practice when I did the Harvestmooncraf...

Well I'm starting to get the hang of things (decided to leave meshwork for later and go a different style route for the node), but I hit a snag Can nodeboxes have animated textures? Because I tried, with this being the intended result Instead I got this jar of nope (which I am definitely going to re...

Re: What is recommended as a base for a subgame and one othe
If you want to make a subgame from scratch, I would recommend to see mods as modules. Roughly one functionality per mod. I promise you this will ease your life very much. Already been doing this, just going to take practice to figure out which stuff best groups together Also, take your time to look...

Re: Post your modding questions here
Is it possible to have a node that consists of two blocks each referencing their own textures? e.g. a jar that is x1=-4,y1=-8,z1=-4,x2=4,y2=2,z2=4 and is like the drawtype glasslike, with an inside that is x1=-3,y1=-7,z1=-3,x2=3,y2=1,z2=3 and is like the drawtype liquid (using NodeBoxEditor hence th...

What is recommended as a base for a subgame and one other Q
It's an end goal of mine to eventually make a subgame (may never happen, may end up rapidly getting to it, but reguardless, it's an endgoal), but while I may be no where near the point of worrying about that (I'm still on making basic nodes and hopefully crops), I'm still curious as to a few things:...

Re: Post your modding questions here
How exactly would I have minetest.get_node work to ensure a node needs space to spread, or only does a certain action if a certain node is above it? I tried looking into it when looking at the tutorial guide for modding but it doesn't seem to explain anything beyond, "Just use minetest.get_node...
