I think the best amount to allocate to stack size is a power of 2. For example:
If we take 64 (2^6) for the amount, you can divide the stack like this:
1*64, 2*32, 4*16, 32 + 2*16, 8*8, 64*1,etc...
If we use a little divisible size, we will find constant problems in the distribution.

Re: [Mod] Extractor
Yes! If you put the extractor under the furnace it takes the content of "dst" and if you put on top puts items in "src"

[Solved] Trying to add a group for an existing node
Hello! I'm trying to add a group to an existing node (without overwriting the groups I already have) and the only way I can think of is this:
minetest.override_item("default:stone", {
groups.magical_tier1 = 1,
})
But it does not work. Does anyone comes up with something?
minetest.override_item("default:stone", {
groups.magical_tier1 = 1,
})

Re: How to enlarge torch range?
There are only 4 bits for the light-level, i.e. 0-15. Completely dark is 0. The sun has max light, at 15, everything else can only have max 14. Stepping down the lightlevel by 1 with every block of distance, and you see why there is a max range for lightsources. So, just set the time of day to get ...

Hi everyone! I'm creating a torch for a mod I'm doing. I would like it to illuminate a huge block radius. Changing "light_source" only changes the intensity of light, the range of that light, however, remains. How can I change that range so that the torch illuminates as much distance as I ...
