I dont know how you got water out of ny post.
The problem is the injector is feeding to many lump stacks to the grinders and furnace. Which cause a clog on the pipeworks.

I'm trying to accomplish something I could really use some help with. I want to sell privs to players using a luacontroller, three commandblocks and one button.
Example: "Hit this button to pay 50'000 credits and get the 'fly' priv".

My Luacontroller is connected to three commandblocks that does the following:
*port.c shows the balance of the players account.

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

-- commandblock.c:
money @nearest

--returns the following:
"Account: <player>
Money: <amount> credits."


*port.b rejects the purchase because of insufficient funds

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

-- commandblock.b
msg @nearest You have insufficient funds

*port.a accepts purchase

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

--commandblock.a
money dec @nearest 50000
grant @nearest fly

To put it all together, I guess I need the luacontroller to:
1. Define "account-balance" as a value, and tell it to get it's number from port.c
2. Compare the numbers if it's equivalent to, or greater than the number

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

-- 1. output-of-port.c = account-balance** or something **
-- 2.
if  account-balance >= 50000
   port.a = true
   else
   port.b = true

Can anyone help me achieve 1.? Or maybe I'm going about this all wrong? Any input is greatly appreciated!

Announcement:
From now on use the RIGHT mouse button instead of the left one to toggle switches and levers and to press buttons. This change was made so that you can't accidentally toggle a switch/button/lever while digging it (or dig it while you only want to toggle it).

Bug: A delayer doesn't turn on again if the input wire is triggered by a sticky piston:



I'm trying to make a tick for a CPU clock.


EDIT: if you replace the delayer with a wire, it still breaks.

Is it possible with a tube detector to active a injector after 2 items pass by the detector.
Example detector connected to a controller then to a injector, a lump passes by the detector activates one port then a 2 goes by the same detector and trigger a second port connected to a AND gate to send the singnal to the injector.

[DoyleChris]

Here is a picture of what im trying to do.
Trying to get the detector to power line A on one lump pass then, line B on the second lump pass, then have a AND,OR gate or a controller trigger the Injector.

Question about running a Injector. I have my Grinders and Furnaces all hooked up with pipeworks and running all of them from one chest and a injector. The problem is that if i use a Blinky light, it feeds the pipeworks with to many items and Minetest starts to delete them. So i was wondering if there was a way i can do volume control with mesecons, I tried the moremesecons with the Adjustable Blinky light but i cant get it to slow down enough and also the delayer..

The closest I'be been able to get us having a single item injector for input connected to a detecting pipe on the output. It's agonizingly slow, but it does work. Every time an item passes through the pipe, the injector sends another item into the machine.

If you can't adjust the speed, adjust the number of items instead.


Alternatively, if you're up for a bit of programming, a luaController would do the job if set up correctly.

Something along the lines of "if A gets a signal, check if B is active. if B is not active, activate B. If B is active, send signal to C and deactivate B," with C connected to the injector and A connected to the detector. B doesn't really need to be connected to anything - it's just a counter. (even if it only counts to one.)

I would post the code, but I'm still a bit new to Lua.

To the player detector I added support for multiple player detection. This is a badly needed feature, and as I am too lazy to do anything further to publish this, here it is:

This section was modified in the file .minetest/mods/mesecons/mesecons_detector/init.lua (github: https://github.com/Jeija/minetest-mod-mesecons/blob/master/mesecons_detector/init.lua)

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

-- returns true if player was found, false if not
local object_detector_scan = function (pos)
   local objs = minetest.get_objects_inside_radius(pos, mesecon.setting("detector_radius", 6))
   for k, obj in pairs(objs) do
      local isname = obj:get_player_name() -- "" is returned if it is not a player; "" ~= nil!
      local scanname = minetest.get_meta(pos):get_string("scanname")
      local sep = "," -- Begin code to split scaname into array
      local t={} ; i=1
      for str in string.gmatch(scanname, "([^"..sep.."]+)") do
         t[i] = str:gsub("%s+", "")
         i = i + 1
      end -- end split code
      for l = 1, i do
         if (isname == t[l] and isname ~= "") or (isname  ~= "" and scanname == "") then -- player with scanname found or not scanname specified
            return true
         end
      end
   end
   return false
end

Hi everybody

I have a problem and i need your help :

I want to do an aventur maps : "Fort boyard". At the end, we need a code.

This code, i want to make it like the tv show ( on the floor)

so Is it possible to use pressure plates that we would connect to a Luacontroller which, when it will receive the energy of 3 plates (in the port a / c/ d), will give energi by the port b to the piston (only if a/c and d are right)

If you can help me, thanks to use simple word, i'm french

Hi guys,
Yesterday i have come accross of interesting new behaviour of sticky pistons. My question is: is this a bug or a new feature? So i found out that when the sticky piston is closed - it's not sticky anymore. This will make the double (or more) sticky pistons not working anymore like here http://uberi.mesecons.net/projects/Doub ... index.html currently the stone will not be pulled all the way until the first piston (next to the 2nd piston) is closed, it will stop where the 2nd piston closes (next to the stone) because this piston (next to the stone) will not be sticky anymore once it's closed - so the 1st piston will pull only the 2nd piston without the stone. Hope it makes sence to you a bit guys :). Thanks

Cool thanks man ;) i will check it out..

I was saying that I made an Instant Answer request on the DuckDuckGo forums, however transilating that to give me or having an in game wiki would be really cool!

This mod is amazing! I love the concept! I hope you can add some more stuff in the future!

Pushing item frames/stands with piston will throw the item out of the frame, but then you can get the item out of the frame by punching it - duplicating items for sure :/ is this something what can get fixed it this mod ?

l couldn't duplicate the item, the only problem was the object wasn't moved.

is it possible to add more names in player detector ?

Can mesecon remember and then recover the area of map?

Done on our servers, you can clone the code :)

Cool, thanks a lot.

[DoyleChris]

Is there a way to add a formspec to the single injector to specify a certain number of items to be removed from a chest. Example if you want just 4 items to come out each command, then when you hit it 4 items come out. And make a maximum of 20, so you just cant use the single injector as a stack injector.

That's awesome!
I have a challenge for you:
Add negations, i.e. "!player" will match anybody but player.
What do you think? :-D
