Here is a basic turret i created for mauvebic , it auto-detects players (including the owner) and automatically shoots at them.

Nice! Can it see and shoot through blocks?

Noper! But that is a feature
So you can hide behind blocks and stuff and be tactical!

Ok good. It'd kind of be cheap to have random things shoot at you while your inside a house.

This is cool=D maybe make it so you have to put the bullets in for it to fire?

Add default to depends.txt

its weird how in linux you dont have to declare default as a dependency to use 'default.node_sound_stone_defaults()' but in win32 builds you do.

edit: anyone else notice errant bullets going one way then flying back ( 180 degrees) - the turrets and my guns both do that :-/

Thx, now it works! Cool mod!

I just tried this in singleplayer under Windows with Minetest 0.4.7 (not dev) and it works quite well. I did increase the range that it starts firing from 17 to 24... Look for the line:

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 objects = minetest.env:get_objects_inside_radius(pos, 7)

I took at guess and made it 17 rather than 7.

Yes, I also needed to add default to depends.txt (you will need to create it) as mentioned by PilzAdam.

This is quite an old topic, plus the developer is no longer around. If you would like to keep updating this mod, it would be highly appreciated :) (create a new topic though).
