FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Ah, I understood. I had to start it throw ./minetestserver, not ./bin/minetestserver

Okay, then I'll wait for the new version.
And yes, could you make a mese hoe too?

It's a run-in-place version.

You already had chosen before asking ;-) No I haven't. I just wanted to fix plant view and make farmland turn into dirt/grass when nothing is planted on it. If you'll fix that I'll use your plugin, because I already have it and don't know what to do with placed farms and gathered crops if I remove ...

That means you don't want to fix it? Ok, then I don't have any choice than using Hackeridze's variant.

Get lost, please. You're not helping.

Explain it to me. Why making plants look so strange because of some philosophical causes? I think node+ABM is a great solution.

Like that? https://github.com/Hackeridze/ru-true_minetest_mods_pack/blob/master/src/hruschev/init.lua

Too much code. Past here the necessary part of it.

What custom data? You just need to change block when the time passes and all the conditions are acceptable.

sapier wrote:because entities do have a life on their own thus beeing able to switch to next level on their own after a fixed delay but not only on random chance

Well, why can't you switch a block in some time (or even random time)?

Why make them entities, not nodes?

Please look at the mod from RTMMP. Your one doesn't work for me, and that one works.

Aaa, the second is straw. How to use it?

1. Why not a simple node like grass?
2. I have seeds, corn and this block got from corn. Strange.
3. Then we should have this. It's not very pretty to have farm block from mistakes.

1. Why do the crops textures rotate to the player?
2. What are the strange block that look like presents, that are gathered from the plants?
3. Does farmland turn to grass with time if it doesn't have crops on it?

Em... this is opensource client, I'm can easel y create a mod that will always tell server that I'm has 8x4x99 blocks of mese in my inventory ;) Well you can always make your own server, use /give command and make 8x44x99 blocks of mese. It's a matter of trust. Maybe the server would have a list of...

Current paste is not only for the freeze moment because I've already played after that moment ^_^

Okay, I'll reupload it.

dannydark wrote:one thing that would be nice is if we could modify/add gui elements via the modding api ^_^

Just need to add textures to GUI and make it available to be changed by a texturepack.

Just another question what to do if client can reach both servers, but servers can't talk to each other? ;-) In general case they don't need to talk to each other. We just need some way to ask player for a password before entering the server. Then he will tell the server about his inventory and oth...

I got a system freeze second time for these two days because of my minetest client. I'm using the latest dev version. Here's my debug.txt: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/529884/ I can't see what was in the console that time because I had to reboot my system. Using gentoo amd64 if that matters.

I've added an interface function to make use of flowers mod growing algorithms from other mods Steps: 1) make your mod dependent of flowers 2) add a texture to YOUR mod named <yourmodname>_<yourflowername>.png 3) flowers_add_sprite_flower(<yourmodname>,<yourflowername>,<your growdelay>, { {name = "...

But you cannot change player's walking or digging speed.

You mean the key would be created when the player logins with password from the menu first time, like in web?

Calinou wrote:+1, but only as API stuff - allowing modders to make speed, strength, fire resistance, invisibility or flying/low gravity potions. :D

Well, training can be implemented throw API too. A mod can count player statistics and vary his characteristics from his dig count, distance run etc.

2neko259: So basicly you suggesting next test case: 1. User connect to the main server 2. Then go to the some kind of portal 3. Server send cmd to client to redirect to anouther server 4. Client disconecting from current setver and start conection to anouther server 5. Client say to new server that...

I think beasts should spawn in the dark, not at night. I don't like an idea to have a vampire in my well-lighted tree-house :)
And maybe you can add some anti-vampire block (totem) that protects certain area from vampires spawning? Maybe it could be made from something you get from killing a vampire.

Just need a lua method to connect to certain server and disconnect from current without exiting to the menu. Edit: Mmm, no. It's not that simple. We need to bring the inventory to another server and also set player's position when he arrives. And if servers contain different mods, we can't bring som...

Maybe add an s2s portal? When you use it, you automatically connect to a different server (on the same machine but different port or even different machine). This won't break protocol and will make it possible to make the main server with portals to every other server (lika a serverlist, but in-game).
