Iron is the thing you mine from the stone.
Steel(is comparable to improved iron) = coal + iron

fairiestoy, I see... in your fork i cannot atm run commands on my OS, that was the initial purpose of my mod. However, i like your idea as it allows for the creation of an ingame terminal. What if both are combined. Commands that run on OS and commands that run in minetest. Dependent on privs one ca...

Pull request

OMG, I have competition! I wonder what yours will look like.

Actually you can only see the lasers because of the fog in minetest... I don't understand. Some less wanted features: ⋅ Lasers should continue when node that interrupted the laser is removed. ⋅ If interrupting node is a bobblock it removes the similar color laser completely! &sd...

+1 This is really cool. For long distances i will use the lasers instead of mesecons. +1 And they look pretty as decoration. +1 When i'm far from home i just have to look for lasers pointing up. Why can't lasers cross path? I understand that that would mean much more nodes as you have to make a cros...

fairiestoy, I like your way of resolving the security issue. It also allows the developer (that's me and hopefully contributors, maybe you) to make the function perform in a manner that could be more tuned to minetest and less on OS. As you already said, it would require some time implementing enoug...

It makes me happy to read that both paramat and Evergreen like the texture idea. I guess i'm not the only one that likes Obsessive Consistent Design.

I agree with MirceaKitsune, it would be easier to fade out the sounds if they were played from a node. But only some nodes, to avoid having a hundred sources. And I think it would be great to make the sounds quieter when the player is inside a building or a cave. Like when there is a node between t...

1244, please share your knowledge

MirceaKitsune, good point, The animal sounds should be comming from animals and not leaves or grass. It makes me supersticious!

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/419967/minetest/OCD/header.png This game focusses obsessively on emergent gameplay which I find the power of the sandbox game called minetest. Having certain materials allows for more crafts and more complex designs and functions within the map. To clearly show e...

vice versa.

I think you understand what I am trying to say. There are no mods that really allow you to do this for many nodes.

This mod has improved allot! I remember the first version. I really like the water effects and the music. Although the crow and the other bird are still very noticable. I do find it cool that they sometimes appear to be far or nearby. Your wishlist looks awesome! I look forward to it.

Checkout the tbm mod, That should explain allot! You can find it in my simple mod pack.

Can you sell nodes in bundles? F.e. 20 wood for 10 minetoon coins.

It will start Minetest, but the server will hang up until the Minetest instance is closed Unless you type "minetest&" Edit. then it tarts minetest on the terminal screen. Only it will be a 2d version platformer kind of minetest. 2D platformer kind of minetest?? What? It's a joke, haha. Did it make ...

There's an unimaginable amount of concept work that would go into this. Let's use helium as an example element. Helium is commonly extracted from natural gas. From that knowledge we need to figure out how we'll spawn natural gas. How to extract the natural gas in the game. Also what other uses natu...

So will this be like MineChem, a Minecraft mod? MineChem looks cool. Allot of tedious clicking and reading what exactly is possible in the mod. I preffer my still buggy version because it is simplified but has(can have) a for minetest practical function. It allows to turn nodes into other nodes. So...

fairiestoy, currently uses os.execute("") with which i can execute a string in hosts OS environment. There is no wrapper function. So f.e. one cannot cd to a directory for the directory to which it was changed is not yet remembered. Remembering the current directory will be a (near) future function....

Interesting mod... but....... are there permissions for this? Idk, just asking because a random thought of someone typing in `rm -rf ~` came into my head. =P That would be painfull. Security is still an issue. For now it is best to only use in singleplayer. I have two solutions. - terminal privs re...

Pokemons, wasn't Jordach working on that?

I'm a big fan of adding science based mods. I don't think a mod pack is the solutions. Why not have different mods for different disciplines. Then hopefully one day you can make a modpack out of all them science mods. But you can checout and maybe contribute to the chemistry mod that I initiated. Al...

Run terminal commands on the hosts computer from miles away. Instructions 1 giveme terminal:client (it does not have a craft) 2 right click to turn on terminal 3 another right click will open the terminal 4 type 'exit' or 'logout' to shut terminal down (it is now diggable) or 4 type an OS command a...

cHyper wrote:which texture pack is this? where can i download it?

You would have to wait a bit longer. I am making a game and i still have to adjust some nodes and crafts. Just using the textures won't give you the same effect as some nodes are modified to get the wanted effect.

Working on minimal ocd game for minetest

basilgohar, i don't mind if you host. Don't forget to say who made what. The nodebox/textures and those who contributed to the code.

vktRus, can you reproduce error? Aka, when does it happen?
