This mod adds gears to minetest. Currently there are 2 types of gears: motor gears, which always spin clockwise, and normal gears which can be not spinning, spinning clockwise, and spinning counterclockwise. The way they interact is if a non-spinning gear is next to a spinning gear, the non-spinning gear will spin the opposite way. Things I want to add are:

mesecon-powered motors (easy)

gears stop spinning when they are not powered by a motor gear, another gear powered by a motor, or a gear powered indirectly ( through other gear(s) ) by a motor. (I cant think of a way to do this)

gears stop spinning (or maybe break) if another gear next to them is spinning the same way

gears shouldn't power other gears that are touching them only in a corner (I sort of know how to do this

conveyer belts powered by gears (no Idea how to make them move stuff)

CRAFTING: none (until I fix all the problems)

Nice. It would be great to have larger versions (more than one node wide) made out of wood. Making them spin correctly might be a bit too difficult i'm afraid. They would be great for mills and other machinery.

That would be cool, though I probably won't even try that until the rest is done (3 - 4 years probably)

Maybe someone still has a copy of it.
