By now i am finishing the yoshi mobs soon will be more, thanks to OldCoder for the 3d Cinos example,
The yoshi will be in 3d and all the mobs in the mod because is Minetest and i dont want something likely the firsts version dungeon master and oerkki and minetest is in 3d not in 2d and because is better make 3d mobs now.
The yoshi is called yosho when he deads he left a spawner egg of a yosho, yosho haves yoshi sfx, and that sfx are short.
Old coder:i try but how you can delete that mobs mod dependency?

If you want to, you can build Mobs Redo code into your mods and eliminate the dependency.

For example, see the Goblins mod by FreeLikeGNU. One version of Goblins depends on Mobs Redo. The other version has no dependencies except for "default".

Note: The thread is located at: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=13004

I could make you another 3D Cinos example and remove the dependency. However, I'll be occupied for a few days. This would not be until next week.

An important note though about having mob code in your mod, that may be heavier than just using a central API.

Additionally, one misses out on improvements in the mob framework unless one resyncs periodically. So, yes, it's a tradeoff. On the other hand, the Mobs Redo code isn't too large yet.

There is conflict between the mods retroblocks and fnaf. Can it be resolved?

Posted: **Fri Sep 18, 2015 16:25**

Maybe the problem is because the mobs of the fnaf mod ,if i can fix this ,i upload the fixed version

Posted: **Sat Sep 19, 2015 11:44**

Give it time and you'll be able to fix the various glitches.

One thing to do, if you haven't done it already, is decrease the spawn rate. Presently, it's too much of a good thing; see the screenshot below.

To decrease the spawn rate, increase the chance number in the register_spawn call. 20000 to 60000 is the typical range, though you can experiment with other values.

I've also noticed that NPCs don't die after a few minutes like other mobs. So, it's not clear what prevents them from filling up a world. This should probably be checked.

Posted: **Sat Sep 19, 2015 16:28**

in the 0.6 i will make toads a boy and a girl, you going to have the yoshis problem fixed ,
P.S: OldCoder when you reload a world ALL THE YOSHOS DEAD, but is a server and reload the world is complicated.
I will make that decreasing yoshos spawning

Turns out that the problem is solely with them, though the Yoshis appear in very large groups when they spawn.

A moment of silence, then, for the departed :P

But what is the usual way for NPCs to be limited? I'm referring to all "npc" types and not solely to Yoshos.

The standard API doesn't seem to apply lifetimer expiration to "npc"-type mobs. The active object count limit will have an effect, but as NPCs spread out, don't they fill up a world?

Posted: **Sat Sep 19, 2015 18:30**

Inocudom that's the idea the yoshis are likely wolfs, they attack in group they are very social.
Old Coder -_- in really , can be but you at least need 10.000.000 to only fill up a big build i think than if the world of minetest is INFINITE 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 yoshos can't fill up a world
