[Modpack] "Better HUD" and "hunger" [2.x.1] [hud][hunger]

[gsmanners]

The goals of any mod are really very esoteric, and depend highly on what you (the modder) want to achieve. For example, if your goal is to achieve a super-realistic simulation vs. something fun and challenging like a game, that would probably be best researched in a laboratory and investigated in proper journals rather than polled in a public forum.

The hunger aspect of this mod could become fairly complicated and difficult to maintain, so perhaps that aspect might be better off in a whole other mod.

[MirceaKitsune]

This looks like an interesting mod, I might try it tomorrow. I admit that I'm not fully sure what exactly it's meant to do however; Add a new HUD, add hunger, add armor, or all at once? All of these are things I'm interested in, but I don't fully get which the mod is primarily intended for.

Also, there was an update some two weeks ago which moved drawing all HUD elements to Lua (including the health bar). Does the mod work with this recent change and latest GIT engine?

@gsmanners,

@MirceaKitsune,

this mod changes the HUD of Minetest, it improves the apperance [...]. It includes also a mechanic for hunger.

Also: How about trying if it works instead asking before? But since you already did: Yes, it works with current dev and older versions of MT

Sorry, I tend to ask question more than I try to answer them sometimes :P I've been running the mod today and it indeed works very nicely with latest GIT! It is a very nice addition and adds to the gameplay.

And I fully agree with splitting "hunger" and "HUD" into two different mods, since they are both different things. The HUD additions can work by themselves, while the hunger mod could have it as a non-obligatory dependency... since hunger can theoretically work without the HUD but might be unusable without a way to see the hunger level.

Update! Version 1.3.2 released

Changelog:
- Fix dependencies (by Chris Beelby)
- Add support for creatures mod
- Add optional healing for food (by TenPlus1)

[TenPlus1]

gsmanners, that's right which is why I redid the values for my Hunger Redo mod taking into account raw foods which may also poison and foods which can heal also... Here are the values for the hunger.lua file for the Farming Redo and Ethereal mods:

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

if minetest.get_modpath("farming") then

[gsmanners]

Any plans for Farming Redo? That's the one I'm currently trying out.

[TenPlus1]

gsmanners: here are the latest values for Farming Redo mod 1.09, add them to hunger.lua by replacing the previous farming section:

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

if minetest.get_modpath("farming") then
if farming.mod == "redo" then
   overwrite("farming:bread", 6)
   overwrite("farming:potato", 1)
   overwrite("farming:baked_potato", 6)
   overwrite("farming:cucumber", 4)
   overwrite("farming:tomato", 4)
   overwrite("farming:carrot", 4)
   overwrite("farming:carrot_gold", 6, "", nil, 8)
   overwrite("farming:corn", 3)
   overwrite("farming:corn_cob", 5)
   overwrite("farming:melon_slice", 2)
   overwrite("farming:pumpkin_slice", 1)
   overwrite("farming:pumpkin_bread", 9)
   overwrite("farming:coffee_cup", 2, "farming:drinking_cup")

   overwrite("farming:cookie", 2)
   overwrite("farming:chocolate_dark", 3)
   overwrite("farming:donut", 4)
   overwrite("farming:donut_chocolate", 6)
   overwrite("farming:donut_apple", 6)
   overwrite("farming:raspberries", 1)
   overwrite("farming:smoothie_raspberry", 2, "vessels:drinking_glass")
   overwrite("farming:rhubarb", 1)
   overwrite("farming:rhubarb_pie", 6)
else
   overwrite("farming:bread", 4)
end
end

Note: the above addition checks farming.mod to see which farming mod is present, original ("") or farming redo ("redo")...

[Minetestforfun]

Hi,

Please, Can you add support for farming redo 1.09 ?

[BlockMen]

Hi,

Please, Can you add support for farming redo 1.09 ?

Yes, will be added next version ;)

[Minetestforfun]

You need a very small update for a compatibility problem with the mod "fishing" :
(viewtopic.php?f=11&t=4375&hilit=fishing&start=25)

if minetest.get_modpath("fishing") ~= nil then
overwrite("fishing:fish_raw", 2)
overwrite("fishing:fish", 5) -- change it to => "overwrite("fishing:fish_cooked", 5)"
overwrite("fishing:sushi", 6)
overwrite("fishing:shark", 4)
overwrite("fishing:shark_cooked", 8)
overwrite("fishing:pike", 4)
overwrite("fishing:pike_cooked", 8)
end

[Sunfirel]

Good mod. Could u possibly add kpgmobs and jkmod? They are good mods and should be compatible too.

[BlockMen]

Update! Version 1.4 released

Changelog:
- New hunger mechanics/added experimental player-action based hunger (digging, placing, walking effects hunger)
- Better crosshair texture, switched to "new" default hand
- Added support for farming redo mod, kpgmobs and jkmod

[SAMIAMNOT]

Does this mod change the inventory? I need to know because I want to add it to my personal game.

It doesn't change the inventory, it changes the HUD bar, and used to changed the hand, but I think that was changed. :)

[SAMIAMNOT]

Oh good. I was afraid it would clash with the Crafting mod. Thanks.

Very interresting update, good work !

Can you explain me how can we hide the text in the chat ?

Hiding the chat is not related to this mod. Default hotkey for that is F2.

[MTDad]

Great work BlockMen!
In initial testing I'm really liking the action based hunger. The hunger didn't seem to come on quick enough before to be realistic, so I would crank it up, which was fine until real life calls and you come back to your bones.
Now if I'm being active those breads really seem to start dropping fast. Awesome!

im speaking about the text of the "exhaust_hungry" incrementation in the left corner of my screen, is it normal ?

Make sure that your mod is uptodate. I can't find any output anymore, i removed that line before releasing, see here: https://github.com/BlockMen/hud/commit/ ... 7385e3L337

[Minetestforfun]

Ok, it works,

the text isn't here now,

thank you ! :)

[Sol]

Just for your information, the new system with on_dig callback causes unnaturally fast hunger loss while actively digging nodes with the dig_up function. I fixed this by replacing dig_up with a custom drop_up function, though.
