Looks nice.

In a community you are rarely alone with an opinion ;)

And thx, nice you use it in your game.

Suggestions:
- Add your crafting mod
- Make flowing water push items/items detroyed in lava (RealBadAngel has something like that in technic)
- Add a progress bar for furnaces (see my itest mod for that)

This is far nicer than PilzAdam's rendition of minetest_game.

Thanks for Feedback.
- No, the Crafting mod is aiming to add a MC feature, this game aims to be an improved Minetest game.
- Nice idea, may be added
- Furnaces will be reworked in future versions

Nice you like my changes.

I think some parts should be added to the default game like the hand.

Adarqet wrote:I think some parts should be added to the default game like the hand.

I agree, as well as the doors mod.
EDIT: and builtin_item should be in builtin, but using groups instead of hard-coded liquids names.

the hand is the only tweak i don't like here.

I like the overall look of this.

I played this gamemode for a solid 13 hours.

1) I agree that this is far better than minetest_game.

2) Not only can I enjoy this, but everything seems improved, finished and much higher quality.

3) The hand I welcome mostly, it's because we just have this non-blocky fist punch. It is just strange and wrong.

I feel that it would truly be a wonderful thing if everything in Minetest+ found its way into the base game one day. Of course, you will want to update the sounds and keep up-to-date with the current version of Minetest.

update the sounds.

13 hours, wow! You are the No.1 player of Minetest+ (i guess) ;)
And thanks for that nice feedback.

The new sounds? IMO they are not improving Minetest, so i will keep the "old" for now. I am working on new sounds, but it wont be finished for next release.

I will keep up-to-date as far as changes of minetest_game are IMO improvements. For example I will keep the "old" way of clay generation, because the new fields look boring.

Woot!

and you know that new way of generation is faster and less cpu-intensive, don't you?

You should add carts mod :

It works quite well.

Yes, i know that it is faster. But you won't notice the difference except you are running Minetest on a toaster ;)

can't promise to add, but i will definitively keep that in mind.

I run Minetest on a spoon.

IIRC someone ran Minetest on his printer ;-)

excuse me but there should be unless, not except!
unless you are running MT!

I still think that the carts are a little buggy. I hope that they will get more fixes and end up in the base game in the future.
