[Mod] Mobs Redo [1.34] [mobs]

[TenPlus1]

Will look into fish soon...

[guideahon]

There should be mobs in the water, like fish (no minecraft squids, please), and maybe some more that spawn in different biomes.

Please make water mobs, it would be awesome.

QUESTION:

I made my mobs_extras mod, to add mobs, the thing is that this mobs, are stronger, but i want to make your mobs stronger withut touching your code (add the code on my mod) so i did

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

mobs:register_mob("mobs:dirt_monster", {
   -- aggressive, deals 2 damage to player when hit
   passive = false,
   attack_type = "dogfight",
   damage = 4,
   -- health & armor
   hp_min = 6, hp_max = 54, armor = 100,
})

this registers the mob again changing what i want, but if i do it on my mod, it says it doesnt follow naming conventions, is there a way to do this? Thanks, if you make it, i will upload my mod

I think you have to do

Code: Select all

mobs:register_mob(":mobs:dirt_monster", {

(colon before "mobs")
At least, that's how you would do it with nodes and craftitems, IDK if it works with mobs as well.

[guideahon]

Already tried but it doesnt work, it freezes my minetest... thanks anyways

Register as a new mob "mobs:dirt_monster2" or just edit the dirt_monster.lua settings to make it stronger... easiest ways...

but i dont want to edit my mod everytime you update yours, and i dont want to add a mob, the idea is to add a conf file on my mod, if hard = true, then.... so i double your mobs health and damage, but that cant be done (or i cant) without editing your mod

[firefox]

my ideas for water mobs:

blue fish: spawns in bright waters (near the surface), drops "fish" (the one you can get with the fishing rod)

coral fish: spawns near corals, drops corals

red demon fish: spawns in dark waters (deap see), not sure about the drops ...

extra for the xanadu server: red demon fish drops crimson scales that can be crafted into a special armor

[mahmutelmas06]

I have edited krunopavels bugs mod to work with mobsredo
I have tested singleplayer and If it works well online too i request to merge with mobsredo

-added sounds
-made them smaller like real bugs
-- changed creative icon

You should look into AnimalsModpack for fish.
Check it out and maybe use its models.
It has cca license

I started a new map with paragenv7 because I like the generated landscape very much.

The problem is, in new biomes, the mobs from this mob do not spawn, because of unknown ground (paragenv7:dirt, paragenv7:grass, and so on).

Could you change the spawn function from working with nodes to working with node_groups?

Example:

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

mobs:register_spawn("mobs:cow", {"default:dirt_with_grass", "ethereal:green_dirt_top", "ethereal:prairie_dirt"}, 20, 0, 11000, 1, 31000)

Code: Select all

mobs:register_spawn("mobs:cow", {"group:soil"}, 20, 0, 11000, 1, 31000)

So your mobs mod would work with every mapgen mod without adding new nodetypes to the spawn function.

[poet.nohit]

Using the soil group would let them spawn on farm land, but otherwise that seems like a good idea.

[TenPlus1]

I cannot do that, in the new minetest desert_sand comes under the soil group also and you would have animals spawning in the desert... That's why I had them spawn on specific nodes which could be easily changed...

sand should not be considered soil... that should be changed.

[TenPlus1]

Then you would have to talk to the Minetest devs as it is now default in the game... However, my Farming Redo mod only uses dirt at soil and leaves sand as simply sand...

I think you can just redefine the sand node in the mod.

[TenPlus1]

I could but that would mean mobs redo would break any other mod that relies on sand being soil...

Note: Mobs Redo 1.04 has babies!!!!! feed the parents (cow, sheep, hog) to get them in the mood and hopefully a little baby version will appear, although they grow up so fast :)

[poet.nohit]

Nice. Thanks for all the hard work you're doing. Makes playing this game so much more fun.

I was redirect here from the original mod thread.

Somehow, in my system, all creatures are displayed with an error. All I get are pink boxes.

[TenPlus1]

are you renaming the mod folder to simply 'mobs' ?

[Linuxdirk]

Just a quick feedback.

I think my crashing problem is caused by unknown nodes and the mod breaks while trying to read the node’s properties.

After extensive removing of unknown nodes (created by Carbone which I don’t use any longer) the mod crashes less.

[TenPlus1]

Linuxdirk: glad to hear your game is running fine...

[Linuxdirk]

It doesn’t. It just does not crash that often :)

Could you implement something that fetches the error and circumvents it instead of simply crashing? Does Lua support exceptions and the handling of it?

[TenPlus1]

That is IF the error has to do with the mobs redo and NOT another mod interfering with it... Will look into feedback though, but if you find an error pointing back to the mod itself let me know :)

[Linuxdirk]

When enabling all my mods and starting a new world it works. When Playing in my Carbone generated world it crashes within a function in conjunction with nodes so I guess it’s caused by that :)

[qyron]

The abnormal behaviour displaying mobs was gone just as it appeared. Most probably an error as I added the mod in an already created world or perhaps an issue with another mod.

On another line: compiling a document with all the workings (a.k.a "users manual") for this mod would be a good idea. Even with the Readme included there's a lot of information about the working of the mod that is hard to get just by using it, specially if someone is a new user of the mod.

[poet.nohit]

Well, here's a tutorial:

Right-click sheep to get their wool.

Right click a cow with an empty bucket to get milk. Feed it (right-click) 8 wheat to get more milk.

Feed a warthog 8 wheat to tame it. Feeding sheep, cows, or warthogs will also make them breed.

Right click a chicken to pick it up or place it.

Try to avoid getting killed by unfriendly mobs.

[TenPlus1]

Am adding the finishing touches to the multiple textures feature for mobs and once that is done I will write up some documentation...

[Linuxdirk]

If you breed mobs, will they stay or will they despawn?

[TenPlus1]

Any baby animals that appear will automatically have self.tame set to true which means they will not despawn...

Note: Bunny's added to mob, thanks Exeterdad...
