Bamboo mod

Contents:
Bamboo: It grows rarely and next to water. It grows 10 nodes high and requires soil/dirt and light to grow. Developer hint: Bamboo grows faster, when its high is 3-6 nodes.

Bamboo nodes: Craft 3 bamboo into a bamboo block, you can craft bamboo blocks into simple stairs. The 2 settings in init.lua allow the support of stairsplus (moreblocks).

Craftings: Crafting guides are helpful.
Depends: default
License: WTFPL (for everything)

Are you in a "It was better before"-phase, get it here --v

Oh!
cute mod!

Looks nice. I was trying to make a mod like this, but I guess you beat me to it.

There's at least one other bamboo mod out there. Seems to be a popular plant :-)

It would be nice to provide a working download link. Mediafire is not a good place to place mods. The best (and most likely easiest) solution would be to just attach the mod as a .zip archive to your post.

Well, I use mediafire, because I started that way and you cant remove forum attachments as of yet (that's what I heard.) I might add mine to dropbox.

Edit: This one doesn't require plants_lib

I think that it has been changed and the original poster can remove uploaded files now. Not 100% positive on this but I think it's the case.

Maybe you will add smthg like bamboo karpet or bamboo wood? Because now It's unuseful mode.
But realy nice O~O

I've made firewood mode (wood makes from 3 trees and burn for 1000 sec every, just to make fireplace from furance) and you can make something like it. I'm new here, so I can't start new topic. Maybe later I upload it to Github.

Released v2
- Added 2 new slabs
- Added file in the first post as attachment

Thanks for your answers, I noticed, there's the following problem:
The bamboo does not generate in worlds automatically and needs to get planted first.

Well, I think the bamboo comes from far far away, therefore you need to import it first with

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: /giveme bamboo:bamboo 99

I can add more nodes or dependencies, give suggestions :)

Thanks for making it available for download! That bamboo hut doesn't look bad. I'm not sure yet if the texture will work on large areas, but it might give some color to buildings.

Hm, I could add the natural spawning a pull reque.... oh wait, you use mediafire

Well, I see you like GitHub - there's it.
If there should be an automatic spawn for bamboo, then it should be rare because there aren't many diffrent places where it grows. (naturally)

EDIT: added a rotated bamboo block, have fun!

Right, bamboo isn't very common. I'll try using the papyrus spawning code and make it more rare.
EDIT: I'll do it when I get back home in the afternoon
EDIT #2: If you want 6d facedir, take the logs in minetest_game for example. (paramtype2 = "facedir", is required)

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: minetest.register_node("default:tree", { description = "Tree", tiles = {"default_tree_top.png", "default_tree_top.png", "default_tree.png"}, paramtype2 = "facedir", groups = {tree=1,choppy=2,oddly_breakable_by_hand=1,flammable=2}, sounds = default.node_sound_wood_defaults(), on_place = minetest.rotate_node })

Added ongen for bamboo(did this in about 10 minutes, so tweak it to what you want):
https://github.com/SmallJoker/bamboo/pull/1

Also, will make a pull request which adds support for 6d facedir, support for stairsplus(optional via settings.txt), and an abm to replace all the old horizontal bamboo with the new 6d bamboo(also optional via settings.txt).

PS:
Change the number 45 to something lower (rarer) or higher (less rare) in this piece of code:

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 bamboo_amount = math.floor(perlin1:get2d({x=x0, y=z0}) * 45 - 20)

Thanks for your help but it simply generated "over" the papyrus node, so I reworked a faster system. It's not a good one but works well.

To the 2nd point: I don't know if a 6d facedir is even needed on this simple node, I think it also has positive things having 2 diffrent rotated nodes :)

You're welcome! About the generation, I just had to do it quickly, didn't have time for cleanup.
