1. Either minetest.register_on_punchnode (if you want to interact with a specific kind of block) or the on_use parameter to creating a craftitem (if you want to interact with a tool or item in your inventory regardless of your target). 2. Yes, please read other topics before posting new ones. http:/...

Adding an entity that moves around shouldn't be hard--you'd need the collision detector, though, which isn't done yet. And I don't think damage would be possible, either.

That's my problem. Thanks.

Also, your crafting recipe shouldn't use steel_ingot as a node, it's a craft item :)

Awesome! It's still a little buggy (a 2x3 door for me doesn't move the block above the handle), but very good. Do you think you can make it look slimmer with the signlike drawtype?

Read the original announcement before doing anything else.

OK, that took no time at all. Your mod is now a lot shorter :)

Hey,

I'm trying to port your mod to depend on mine (add_tool), but you appear to be manually changing each tool's properties. Much easier to use basetime to talk about how fast the tool is, because that makes it easier to abstract out the tool definition :)

I'll probably post a patch later.

bwog, they get deleted periodically, that's normal behavior. The problem is currently that the latest image isn't getting updated because minetestmapper isn't working for 0.4.

Once you've built the project, bin/minetestserver will start a server.

If you're on Windows, first download a GNU/Linux distro for your server.

Oh, yeah....you'd just need a tool crafted, an event for right-clicks with that tool, arrows craftable, then add an entity with a forward velocity and a downward acceleration. The last part--detecting a collision and causing damage to whatever collided--would probably be the hardest. Join the IRC ch...

Oh, sorry, the map is no longer current since I moved to 0.4. No one has ported it, yet.

I'm almost to winter break, I might tinker with it then :) I'll keep you posted.

Awesome. Celeron added something that should make it easier:

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

Code: Select all: bd21f00 Add minetest.get_modpath(modname)

The only step required, once you made the project on gitorious, would be to add another remote.

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

Code: Select all: git remote add <repository name> <repository url>

Then, you can push to that remote with

Code: Select all: git push <repository name> master

Calinou, did you look at the add_tool mod? It makes your mod some 300 lines shorter--very handy.

When I followed your instructions, I got "permission denied" (or similar). weperms.txt created, logged in with the right name, weperms looks like

Bug?

Awesome mod!

Would you be interested in moving it over to gitorious, where minetest modders are starting to gather?

https://gitorious.org/+minetest-modders

Let me know if you'd like to join the group!

ZLovesPancakes, If you'd consider joining us over at Gitorious, we'd really appreciate it....we currently have several modders there already, and I'd like to have a central location for these projects. That way, we all know where to look :) gitorious home: https://gitorious.org minetest-modders grou...

Put this at the beginning of your init.lua:

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

Code: Select all: math.randomseed(os.time())

This "seeds" the random number generator with the current time, pseudo-ensuring a random result at each run.

More simpler, let gitorious do it for you:

https://gitorious.org

They automatically generate tarballs for your project, and we already have a modders group on there:

https://gitorious.org/+minetest-modders

Join today! :)

Why make it a mod and not simply release the code, since it's just a function ? Well, since it relies on minetest-specific code, I figured it would be best to use the minetest dependency management structure, instead of simply calling it a Lua function. Plus, I greatly prefer organizing all of my m...

Are you making a new mineral/ore/gem/thing that shouldn't be physically possible to make into a tool but somehow need to be added to minetest anyway?

OK, I made a working copy of your mod: https://gitorious.org/marktraceur-minetest-mods/moreores/archive-tarball/0.1 And it now depends on my mod: https://gitorious.org/marktraceur-minetest-mods/add_tool/archive-tarball/0.1 Feel free to ask any questions, but it works for me.

- Ores quite often generate where they should not (outside of stone). No possible fix for now. Is your original post's bug still applicable? Also, could you make it a little less difficult to add tool types? That could be a separate mod that is a dependency of this one (and so, so many others). In ...

I would like to know how to create a random number, e.g. from 1-10 in Lua and how to create new mobs ;) -- at the beginning of your init.lua math.randomseed(os.time()) -- wherever you need the random number math.random(1,10) New mobs are not yet available through the API, to my knowledge.

Word doc? This is a free game, we use LibreOffice! :)
