[Mod] More Blocks [moreblocks]

[VanessaE]

This is because the old recipes are no longer valid - to make a stair, slab, etc. use the circular saw.

I would have thought that would merely make it where there was no recipe at all? Instead of creating invisible unknown blocks that do not even create the unknown item block?

But yeah, I totally blanked on the fact I don't really need the old recipe anymore... Speaking of which... Is there a summary of the recipes for these mods? Or do I need the recipe mod for that? :-D

If I add moreblocks (github HEAD e48d33808822e2a3cb7feb39450a6d6bc099afb6) to my game "famish" it crashes minetest:

What's your graphics card and driver?

lspci | grep VGA

will tell you the graphics card.

shane: actually there's no clear way to entirely delete a recipe, so it's been changed to just result in a "nothing" object.

Personally, I think it should be changed to just return the objects you put into the grid. E.g. six stone in the old stair pattern should just give back 6 stone.

Oh that's interesting. Ok, thanks. Helps me understand.

Hmm, weird, I don't get that issue and I also have a NVIDIA card and proprietary driver. It seems to be graphics-related (see the GL_OUT_OF_MEMORY).

Are you using latest Git or 0.4.6?

hi,

1. would you re adding the craft rezips for the stairs and slaps again, please?
not to the microblocks, only for stairs and slaps.

2. something with the wood slaps/panels is now wrong after a update to the "less node version"
Before the update:

after the update:



3. the "replace unknown blocks after update with a correct rotated version of the new one" of some microblocks dose not work correctly

before:


after:




it would be good if you can do that.
thanks

don't trust the moreblocks mod...

+1 :-P

I found an error on line 181 of the crafting.lua in the more blocks mod. To make iron stone bricks, you combine default:steel_ingot with default:stone_brick and there is no default:stone_brick. I think you wanted default:stonebrick instead.

Fixed, thanks for reporting.

When I try to craft a whole bunch of stairs out of moreblocks blocks, eg Circle Stone Brick, Stone Tile, Cactus Checker, Iron Stone... they all give me unknown objects without a texture.
Or is that just supposed to be like that, due to the circular saw? (which works fine) It's just that if I accidentally craft an unknown object, I can't undo that, and it's just annoying.

Intended, you are supposed to use the circular saw.

2014-08-06: not anymore, if you're reading this post.

How would I add blocks from other mods to the list of blocks supported by stairs and the circular saw? For example, add mithril_block from the moreores mod.

I found a bug in the latest stable download, running Minetest 0.4.7:
Attempting to craft a cobble slab (three cobble across), I get no texture in the preview of the crafting screen. When actually crafting the item, the error comes back as

The item attempts to be placable, registering this error when placed and then disappears:

If this is the same 'bug' as found on the landrush server, (and expecting that i did not missunderstood you), this post at the beginning of this page is the answer:

Hmm. this must have been changed in the mod at some point. I know that on other servers (not just landrush), a saw was not needed for creating slabs. Hmm. What can we do to disable this "normal crafting" situation (vice the sawing situation), since it's apparently buggy now?

[fairiestoy]

You could prevend this mod from overwriting the default recipes. For example the slabs within moreblocks/stairsplus/slabs.lua
starting at line 118:

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

    -- Unregister default recipes

        minetest.register_craft({
            output = "moreblocks:nothing 1",
            recipe = {
           {recipeitem, recipeitem, recipeitem},
           },
       })


Just comment this out (its the first solution i saw when taking a quick look). Therefore i cannot give any garantuee for this solution.
Also within the stairs.lua (same directory) beginning in line 228 there is something similiar. That should stop the redefinition of this recipes.

[hallo]

hello i don´t know how i install mods wher can help me

[Calinou]

Stair/slab crafting enabled by default; there is now a setting for disallowing stair/slab crafting.

[DeepGaze]

can you add wool&bookshelf compatibility to the saw for more colours. (i use the saw to make tardis consoles)

[VanessaE]

Gloopblocks mod has wool stairs/etc. (But it doen't do bookshelves)

[DeepGaze]

thank you i am now starting work on 12 extra themes for my tardis (these will be only examples and will not function like the current) plus i will add some more art(no one has volunteered any art for me to share :( if you have any ideas for art please share

[Nightshade]

I can't seem to make rope, for some odd reason. I stick 3 leaf blocks in vertically, and nothing shows up in the output box.

[fgr]

Hey Calinou,

is there an option to disable the humble stupidness with the screwdriver? I am not playing minetest to get a feeling being part of "Tool time" to rotate slabs or anything else. Even it isn't a medieval tool, so we cant build up medieval without it. Could you please change this behavior or just split it with screw driver or without cuz its really annoying!

Thanks for reading.

[Sokomine]

Use my replacer mod. That helps at least when you want to set up more than one node with the same orientation. There's also a command inside stairsplus/moreblocks to change the orientation afaik.

I usually place the first slab/panel by using a helper node (i.e. a glass block placed above the node for fixing a panel to the ceiling; one behind the node for wall-mounted) and only use the screwdriver when that fails. All further nodes are placed with the replacer.

There was a time/version when using moreblocks/stairsplus became very annoying because it was close to impossible to place slabs and panels the way you wanted. The current version works quite well.

i think the horizontal tree is obselete, since in minetest 0.4.8 are the tree rotated by 6dfacedir.
