Re: [mod] Dwarf Fortress style caverns [dfcaverns]
I don't play dwarf fortress - but I took a look around in creative: Great work so far - all of the caves are well designed and look nice. It is also nice to see that they all present differnet challenges / rewards to the player. Leaving mese ore inside the lava tunnels is a nice touch to that effect...

Re: [Mod] Easy crafting table [crafting]
Another idea: How about an option to simply have the mod scanning player inventory directly instead of the player having to place items in the left column? That would essentially be the craftguide with progressive mode but that you may also craft directly in it. There are a few issues with this ide...

Re: I want to modify a tool but I can't
Quick reply - you may want to look at: * `minetest.handle_node_drops(pos, drops, digger)` * `drops`: list of itemstrings * Handles drops from nodes after digging: Default action is to put them into digger's inventory * Can be overridden to get different functionality (e.g. dropping items on ground) ...

[Mod] Circuits - Mesecons alternative [circuits]
An alternative circuitry mod to mesecons. I am looking for constructive feedback on what should be added to or changed in this mod. Please keep in mind the style of this mod - I am not looking to re-make mesecons with lua-controllers and logic gates as basic nodes - logic should be build from primat...

Re: Post your screenshots!
That looks interesting. What mod is that and what does it do? It is a mod I am currently working on (but haven't yet released). If you hadn't guessed - the mod itself is a mesecons replacement, and this circuit is a t-flip flop. It takes a pulse and turns it into a toggle for on/off - e.g. use a bu...

Re: [Mod] Aquarium_glass [aquarium_glass] [Poll]
Due to the rendering issues of transparent liquids, I did not move this mod to mod releases on completion.
However, it has not been WIP for quite a while, so I have put up a poll to see what people think about moving it to releases.

Re: How to get the *exact* liquid flowing direction?
Some comments about flowlib itself: Please document the API functions (a short explanation of purpose, return value and parameters is enough).

Re: How to get the *exact* liquid flowing direction?
It is almost accurate, but not completely. There are some parts of the rendering which are directional behaviours, and make no sense as the actual direction of the liquid flow - e.g. S - source X - flowing SXS The engine will always render the flowing liquid as flowing towards +X (as it doesn't have...

Re: [Mod] Planetoids [planetoids]
Update!
Nothing much, just added a mod.conf and made the mapgen automatically set the mapgen to singlenode.
Not yet added the new minetest 0.4.15 content, but will do at some point.
