Excellent work!

Tx ! Great work !

Since we already have fences and doors, I suggest this is merged in minetest_game (but only one type of gate please, like MC has). Not sure if there's a point to have stone gates before you have stone fences... though if both existed that would be nice.

We have! : )

Nice, that looks like a good idea.

Why does the mod not work? It seems to work fine for me...

I sometimes (fairly often) got a crash in gates/init.lua line 68 when using the TNT mod and blowing stuff up.

I changed this line:

if gates.registered_nodes["on_punch"][node.name] ~= nil then

to:

if node and gates.registered_nodes["on_punch"][node.name] ~= nil then

Seems to work.

ah... well i guess that means my gates are kind of redundant now :)

The 1.6 link doesn't work.

Something in mesecons_gates is conflicting with this. I'm just getting around to trying out mesecons. After installing it, loading an old world, and punching a gate, I got an error message:

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: ... \mods\minetest\gates-1.6\gates\init.lua:68: attempt to index field 'registered_nodes' (a nil value)

Removing the mesecons_gates module (but leaving the rest) solved the issue. Since I want to try the mesecon gates, but don't want to remove the 3D-gates, I'll look through the code when I wake up and see If I can find a solution.
But, hopefully someone will beat me to it....

by **wulfsdad** » Tue Jan 01, 2013 00:58

The workaround is simple: I modified mesecons_gates/init.lua lines 91 and 101 to replace "gates" with "mgates." If any of the other mesicon files rely on the gates definition then they will have to be changed too, so it might be easier to change this mod's definition. Maybe to "_gates" or whatever.

by **Misty** » Tue Feb 04, 2014 00:28

Could someone please post a screenshot of the gates in the open position?

by **natan.virgiliio** » Thu Feb 27, 2014 23:49

o seu mod não é compativel com o mod mesecons

by **TeTpaAka** » Fri Feb 28, 2014 20:00

There is a bug when placing one gates over another. When you open one, the other changes to the same type.

I have not used this mod specifically, but I believe the 'register_on_signal_on' method is defined within mesecons itself. (I have not dug thru the code the verify this however.)

If you do not have mesecons, this might be the problem.

If you do have mesecons then I am sorry for wasting your time :P hehe

Peace

Usually a mod with a 'dependency' notes it in the depends.txt in the mod folder. If the mod does indeed utilize Mesecons, then I think the mod dev, or the users have to write mesecons in the depends.txt and save it. And also install mesecons.

EDIT: Ah, Mesecons is noted as a 'soft' dependency.

Depends: default, mesecons (optional), xFences (recommended)

But because the API changes, and because I haven't seen the developer in a while, I think the depends.txt has not been updated =/

by **JPRuehmann** » Tue Apr 01, 2014 17:53

Thanks for the Replies.

@UOAbigail yes I have mesecons installed and activated.
@hoodedice the depends.txt is there and default, mesecons ad gates in it.

bye,

@JPRuehmann
The mod hasn't been updated in a while and the iron gates have not been updated for the latest mesecon versions.
If you remove the iron gates folder though the mod should work fine.

by **JPRuehmann** » Wed Apr 02, 2014 11:10

Hello

I have disabled it in the games .mt file
load_mod_gates_iron = false
so it wont disturb.
But I would like to try it out.
so a Hint to change would be loved by me.

Thanks,
JPR

by **alcipri** » Sun Apr 13, 2014 18:19

Please, can you upload a version without iron gate? Or explain how to disable it.

by **Sokomine** » Sun Apr 13, 2014 20:06

If you don't want a particular item, you might just comment out or delete the relevant lines for the receipe. Receipes start with minetest.register_craft

by **Achilles** » Tue Apr 15, 2014 15:08

Amazing mod :)

by **Splizard** » Sun Apr 20, 2014 10:16

New Version!
Version 1.8

Make iron gates only usable by the placer.
Remove mesecon support.
Update gates API.
Open with right click.
