Wow, +1!!!

Wow, +1!!!

Thanks.

I updated it to use moveto to prevent lag from breaking item collection and player throws item farther.

By the way, too many food particles, it is a bit annoying! :)
I added it to MultiCraft - Best Minecraft clone based Minetest!

You might want to download it again and readd it, I just fixed items falling down if server lags and items following players if they walk away from it and made it feel a little better

And that's awesome.

Is it possible for the food particles to just be a similar colour to the food or a subset of the image?

I really like the minetest way of getting the drop item straight the way to the inventory but it would be a nice addition to pick up dropped items what didn't got straight to inventory (i.e. by killing a sheep the wool and meet falls always on the ground) while holding shift. Would it be possible to collect the dropped items only while holding shift and for the rest as default going straight to inventory?

+1 nice

My daughter opened her mailbox and my server crashed with the following error...

Did you see my fork of that item drop mod? I haven't tried this one you made out, but a few years ago I added to the PilzAdam one, preventing items from never expiring, and making items accelerate towards the player as they get close. It worked pretty good when I did it, but it's been a while, so I dunno if yours uses a better technique or not. Still, worth taking a look I hope. I did a lot of refactoring and cleanup too, to make it more readable.

[DoyleChris]

How do you make the items that you dig go right into your inventory.

[xeranas]

How eating food particles related with item drop? Maybe worth to split into separate mod?

[jordan4ibanez]

I've updated the mod.

• It's a little faster, tried to optimize as much as I could
• Has a gui that shows you the items you've collected
• Uses your velocity when throwing items

Thank you! +1

I've updated it to work with mods that use the drop item function, mainly VanessaE's pipeworks mod. The changes throw items further from dispensers and so forth.

[mahmutelmas06]

Seems you have deleted food particles. Could you release it as a seperate mod ?

[texmex]

I like this mod! It's very snappy.

By glancing the code it looks like you're checking for sneaking key. Not knowing code that well I'm assuming it's for being able to drop a single item out of an item stack. Can't get that to work however, it throws the whole stack regardless of sneak key being pressed or not.

Coming from Minetest_TNG I'm kinda used to pressing the use key (E) to trigger the pickup function. What would you think of adding such feature to your mod?

[GreenDimond]

Welp, I want to try this, but if I enable it, Minetest disables it for me. Why?

Maybe you need to exit Minetest completely and then edit the setting. If you edit Minetest.conf while Minetest is running (even in main menu) any change will be overwritten

I managed to do it myself, here. :D
