Hello everyone,

this mod adds some improvements to the players inventory.

Main feature: This mod adds 3 different buttons to player inventory. With those buttons you can sort your inventory easily.
"›•"-Button concernates all stacks to their maximum size.
"^"-Button sorts all items in an ascending order
"v"-Button sorts all items in an descending order

See demonstration video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeOXqyP6h7o

Note: It's currently only working for the player inventory, not for chests or other formspecs.

Furthermore this mod has the ability to refill your wielded items automaticly. For example your current tool breaks and you have one more of the same type (e.g. a stone pickaxe) this mod puts it right in you hand and you can keep digging our placing nodes without opening the inventory.
You can disable this setting by adding/changing following to your minetest.conf file: "invtweak_autorefill = false"

As a small gimmick it adds also a sound when a tool breaks, just to improve the atmosphere of the gameplay. :)

Currently supported mods:
- unified_inventory
- 3d_armor

Okay. Breaking sound is a really good idea as I usually count down the uses before the tool breaks, so that's one thing I don't have todo anymore.

Secondly, I've used Tekkit before and the automatic refill in there is useful, provided you have the items to "fake" refill the stack.

In a nutshell, this mod makes life much, much easier for me, don't know about you.

I like it. This should be in the default game. :D

Auto-refill would fit more in the "build" game, but I agree.

By the way, nice mod.

what part of the code does the auto-refill?

The first 22 lines.

I have accidentally ziped und uploaded the wrong files. Please download again, if you want sound. Thanks

awesome tweak tool for minetest...

Posted: **Sun Apr 21, 2013 16:31**

could you make this work for all tools like if an item has minetest.register_tool then the things happen. In minitest there are 2 tools that dont do this. Also maybe adding an optional group would be nice if you have set some node/craftitems to do something like a tool

Could you say me which tools that are? And the auto-refill should work for any stack, no matter what it contains.

Prevent the game from crashing when there is no digger/placer/puncher:

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: local auto_refill = true -- set to false if you dont want get refilled your stack automatic function refill(player, stck_name, index) local inv = player:get_inventory() for i,stack in ipairs(inv:get_list("main")) do if stack:get_name() == stck_name then inv:set_stack("main", index, stack) stack:clear() inv:set_stack("main", i, stack) return end end end if auto_refill == true then minetest.register_on_placenode(function(pos, newnode, placer, oldnode) if not placer then return end local index = placer:get_wield_index() local cnt = placer:get_wielded_item():get_count()-1 if cnt == 0 then minetest.after(0.01, refill, placer, newnode.name, index) end end) end local tname = "" minetest.register_on_punchnode(function(pos, node, puncher) if not puncher then return end if puncher:get_wielded_item():get_wear() ~= 0 then tname = puncher:get_wielded_item():get_name() else tname = "" end end) minetest.register_on_dignode(function(pos, oldnode, digger) if not digger then return end local num = digger:get_wielded_item():get_wear() local index = digger:get_wield_index() if num == 0 and tname ~= "" then minetest.sound_play("intweak_tool_break", {gain = 1.5, max_hear_distance = 5}) if auto_refill == true then minetest.after(0.01, refill, digger, tname, index) end end end)

btw.: Nice mod. Tried to code the auto refill some time ago but failed. And your solution is more simple than I expected.

Thanks, but where is the change in my code? And i tried that, there was no crash. Did you had one?

Lines 17, 27, 36. Is a rare bug caused by certain mods that use place_node without a placer, or dig_node without a digger.

Ok, thx. I think i will add this, but im not convinced that it is neccesary. I have tested with minetest.env:dig_node(), place_node(), and punch_node() (all have no placer) and it does have no effect. No error, no crash, nothing.

Update: Version 1.1

Changelog:
- Added Casimir's crash prevention

- supports now also costum tools, that don't digg nodes

Notice: Inventory Tweaks works always for the default tools. The support of costum tools brings no interference for usage.

Posted: **Thu May 16, 2013 14:21**

Update: Version 1.2

Changelog:
- Fixed sound-bug in multiplayer
- Fixed bug in creative mode
- full Multiplayer support
- improved support for costum tools

I noticed a bug: when you have a unused tool and use it on something it is not made for it breaks instantly. E.g. dig dirt with a brand new pickaxe.

Thanks for feedback.

Survival or creative mode? Because i noticed that issue in creative already but had no time to update yet.

Version 1.2.1 released

Changelog:
- fix instant break of unused tools in creative mode

Posted: **Thu Jul 25, 2013 23:38**

Very cool this mod. Minetest has far too less sounds and the auto-refilling is very handy.

Both features seem not to work in creative mode for me (stable 0.4.7, no other mods).
Don't know if it's a bug or a feature, but who needs anything but building blocks in creative mode anyway?

Both. Auto-refill = feature, sound = bug :P

I will check that, thx.

EDIT: This bug (and its fix in 1.2.1) is only occuring in dev-versions of Minetest. So if you are using Minetest 0.4.7 stable, then stay at Version 1.2 of this mod.

Caused is this bug by this commit -> https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/90b095aa54b5a96b1100966adc0f083e9cb5409d

I find it really annoying that this instantly breaks many tools when you use them on the wrong thing. I was annoyed when I lost a perfectly good diamond sword because I was wielding it while I picked up a torch, and I've lost a compass from another mod more than once because of it.

(It's not whatever bug you fixed in 1.2.1. This is version 0.4.7 without creative mode.)

Thanks for reporting that bug. I will fix that as soon as possible, but it seems i have to rewrite the mod for that, so it could take a while.

Update: Version 1.2.2

Changelog:
- Fixed instantly break of unused tools when digging wrong block
- lowered volume of break sound a bit

Version 1.2 (for Minetest 0.4.7 stable) is also fixed

i dont like the sound, it freaked me out, so i used the minecraft sound,

Posted: **Wed Apr 09, 2014 12:12**

does this mod work for current version?

Posted: **Wed Apr 09, 2014 13:00**

Yes. Using it with both 0.4.9 and the latest git works. The only bug I know of happens when using unknown items.
