I hope that this mod can make it on here (mmdb/) and become a standard part of Minetest.

Looks frightening! Some players seem to constantly ask for such creatures. I think they'll enjoy your mod greatly.

Thanks for the compliment.

Can they use teleport like real enderman ?

[trainwrecktony]

nice model ! i added code to my simple mobs install , slowed them down a bit, gave some chance drops, and have them spawn at bedrock layer on my server

Not yet. I am still figuring out how to tweak the Mobs API to get it to work better like add the ability to jump while chasing a player. The Mobs API needs to be re-written. My "Senderman" uses the same API that PilzAdam's "Simple Mobs" uses. My Senderman is a start. I hope he continues to get better.

What can I do to get this mod moved to "Mod Releases"?

The requirements are here.

It seems it fulfills all requirements, so I moved them (both this mod and your nuclear_material mod).

In the future, post your move requests here, as that makes it more likely a moderator will see it :)

[DevynCJohnson]

@kaeza Thank you very much. Now, I am motivated to write more mods. Now that I have a better understanding of the Minetest API and the management and policies of the Minetest community, I can spend more time on making more detailed/large mods.

Do you have spawneggs and its dependencies enabled? I am not having issues on my system. Is there an error message in debug.txt?

I tried this yesterday, and it's a scary mob! It felt like they were invincible, and they move fast.

Just one problem: why are they showing up in the daytime? I'm not familiar with the Enderman from Minecraft, but shouldn't dangerous creatures generally be out only at night? I had to disable this mod because them being out in the daytime makes it near impossible to progress.

Also, shouldn't they be more rare? I saw two of them rather close together. It seems like Senderman would work best as a rare, very deadly threat that makes you afraid of the dark, so to speak.

Perfect timing. Just as I committed an update to Github for Senderman, you made your post. Well, I applied your idea while you were probably typing that. (Are you spying on me? (^u^))

I still need to figure out how to make him teleport.

I think that he can throw something like arrow to set his possition.But this idea make him unattackable so you have to remake a mobs api first :)

Do you have spawneggs and its dependancies enabled? I am not having issues on my system. Is there an error message in debug.txt?

yes

[philipbenr]

...or it didn't happen

*sigh* ... Not again. Do you even know who said this?

@Devyn: Looks very nice, and ominous. It will add to a survival themed game. Not to mention the fact that it would freak anybody out to be faced with a ton of these.

Much people say it.

[DevynCJohnson]

Thanks for the comments and compliments everyone.

@asdfref I wish I could figure out why you are having issues.

[asdfref]

mese cons dose not work for me ether, and I said yes to this earler " Is there an error message in debug.txt?" and I did not understand this "Do you have spawneggs and its dependancies enabled?"

[DevynCJohnson]

@asdfref My Senderman mod depends on spawneggs, and spawneggs has dependencies of its own. What is the error message in debug.txt?

[asdfref]

It said that there is a file int.lua in the DCJ-Minetest-Mods-master (it tolled me that that is were the debug.txt is) but the only int.lua is in the slender man, curancy, and nuclear matryale folders so..... I can not finded out. and i do have spawn eggs.

If you read the "README" on Github, it says that each folder is a mod. Copy the "senderman" folder out and paste it with your mods. Github only allows me so many project-hostings for free, so all of my Minetest mods are in one project.

[asdfref]

O thanks.

[DevynCJohnson]

Well, some of my other programming projects are doing well and I have been learning C++. This means my Minetest projects will not be too active. I want to spend more time on my other projects, so you will all see me very rarely. If any of you have really enjoyed my mods (Nuclear Material, Senderman, and anything else on my Github Minetest project), feel free to adopt the project. (Since they are licensed under WTFPL, I cannot legally stop you anyway). I hope that I have made some kind of positive impression on the Minetest project and community. I thank you all for your time and kind comments/replies. I wish all of you and Minetest the best of luck.

what is interesting is that your senderman requires spawneggs yet you failed to post a link to the spawneggs mod and when a search is done from within the Board index ‹ User-contributed Content ‹ Mods ‹ Mod Releases for spaweggs all references return to you. would it be too much trouble to at least post a link to the mods that your mod depends on?

[Shadow_The_Hedgehog]

There is no detection box therefore I cannot attack them except with arrows. They disappear shortly after spawning with an egg. They are not damaged by lava or fire. They spawn too often. This last one is just my opinion, but could you add a cool animation so that he catches fire when in lava and flashes red and/or bounces back when attacked? If these bugs could be fixed, this would be an awesome mob to have in the nether. :)
