/me plan make driving bears, preferably white

[dannydark]

Just a quick heads up that an error is displayed because the gull item texture is missing ^_^

[sapier]

I know about it probably I need to add dummy item textures for non catchable animals too. For now just ignore those error messages they don't have any effect.

[RAPHAEL]

I assume you wanna know how to breed sheep ;-) It's simple:
1) craft a barn
2) fill it with leaves
3) wait some time

So how long does one wait? I made some barns and filled with leaves (that look suspiciously a lot like some plant that causes a lot of controversy lol) and have waited a total of 8 hours. Nothing has happened.

[neko259]

True, I'm going to see the barn periodically. Nothing happened since yesterday :)

[sapier]

hmm it should happen after 30 minutes with some randomness added ... but I've switched time after testing with 5 min so probably it doesn't work with 30 ... I'll have a look.

EDIT1: and of course you need to be next to it to happen ... (not the time but the moment it happens)

EDIT2: ok i've found it ... forget about the 30 minutes I've switched to some more randomness dependent on last bread time ... meaning the barn needs to be active (player next to it) for lots of time to get a reasonable chance ... that's not how it's meant to be I'll fix the activation dependency in next release.

EDIT3:
please check if this fixes it, replace on activate for entity :barn:barn_ent

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

on_activate = function(self,staticdata)
    if staticdata == nil then
        self.last_breed_time = os.time(os.date('*t'))
    else
        self.last_breed_time = tonumber(staticdata)
    end
    self.last_check_time = os.time(os.date('*t'))
end,
       
get_staticdata = function(self)
    return self.last_breed_time
end,

I've seen a blue fish flying in the sky above the island today. Is it a bug or a feature? It was flying up very fast, and then disappeared.

[sapier]

Disappearing is a feature as animals are checked to be in correct area but it shouldn't have gone up that far.

[MirceaKitsune]

I so agree with this mod! Fantastic work, going to try it now :)

I have one objection so far: Although the sprites look nice, I'd go for a lower pixel count to match the same style as the other textures. High quality sprites don't go well with Minetest by default, IMHO. Eventually, I assume all players and creatures will use boxy 3D models like Minecraft, so I guess they'll be changed either way.

[sapier]

@MirceaKitsune
as soon as there is 3d model support animals will support it. For the time being you may supply low res animal sprites. I don't have any problems with providing different options. I just can't draw very well ( animal textures are mostly from rinoux).

[Temperest]

I noticed that mobs cause damage even if enable_damage is set to false in the config file. Is this something that can be considered in Lua mods?

Why do you say that?

My pc wont run MC, but will MT, so, not to 3d models!!!

[Temperest]

I'm sure it wouldn't be terribly difficult to add a flag that enables 3D models at the user's discretion. That way users who are able to use 3D animals have the option of doing so, while the rest can choose to stay with the 2D sprites.

One of the fish has to be a "bass"

[Jordach]

One of the fish has to be a "bass"

so, you like bass, some deep bass, maybe a soft bass...

but we do need fish.

And I want one of the fish to be a bass (fish) not bass (guitar)

[sapier]

there are still at least two fish graphics from rinoux that aren't named by now so if someone can supply a name and preferable some information where to spawn them I'm going to add them.

"fish blue white" needs a name too ;-)

[Lunarhiro]

[Gatharoth]

Question. Are there bulls in this? If not, why do the cows have horns?

[IPushButton2653]

One fish needs to be a sea bass. I have an obsession with bass
