I created a bunch of Fire Arrows and then tried to use them for the first time.
I got a CTD and error. I'm not sure if its from the 0.4.10 build or Adventuretest bug?
But i thought I would post my debug file.

That's an Adventuretest bug. I have only worked on the regular arrow to make it work with all of the changes I made. I'll put a higher priority on getting the other arrows updated.

[LionsDen]

I have found a couple of problems.

1) grass is growing on everything. It was everywhere when I started a new world, on cobblestone and gravel and even on the water in the crops areas of towns. It is even growing inside the buildings. lol :D

2) while playing, I was exhausted and suddenly the game crashed with the only notice the microsoft crash notice. After restarting the game, suddenly my character can only walk at a VERY reduced rate as if I was exhausted. My stamina bar was full on the restart so I got it down by half a a mark and slept. My speed was still reduced so I got it all the way down and slept again. It was still reduced when I woke up again. I then quit and restarted minetest entirely. When I restarted for a couple of seconds I could move normally and then I went slow again. Is there any way to get my speed back besides starting a new world?

[BrandonReese]

1) Do you have a screenshot of the grass growing problem?

2) Delete the physics file in your world folder. So if your world was named Adventuretest the file would be minetest/worlds/Adventuretest/physics

[LionsDen]

Thanks, deleting the physics file worked. Here are some screenshots.

Grass growing in a building, I think at least some was from when the chunk was created.


Grass growing on gravel and inside a building. I think some at least from chunk creation.


Grass growing on top of the water in a villages cotton plot, I think all of this is from chunk creation.

[bajanhgk]

How do you sleep and also adventure test should have custom textures
Edit: oh nevermind

[bajanhgk]

change the workbench with blockmens crafting mod cause it looks and is better

[Brockenflabel]

As regards diamonds etc;

I dug down to 1200, by then I acquired
-two chests of iron ore
-27 copper ore pieces
-30 glow stones

So I get tired of waiting for diamond and teleported down 3000 !
Thank God I found myself embedded into a nice cozy piece of stone! and not lava.
I simply dug my way out then and gradually found some connecting tunnels.
After following them for awhile I found some gold, then later on some more,
total 70 gold ore, but no diamond or mesa.

So I tried to teleport again and went down 15000 !!!!!!!!!!
Again I was embedded in stone.
Found some tunnel systems and searched and dug a lot at that level.......no diamond.
In fact nothing but coal so far.
So I guess Adventuretest needs more diamonds?
Or any diamonds.

[LionsDen]

Is exhaustion damaging armor supposed to happen?

[ModernHippie]

This Game sounds very, very, very, ... cool!!

[tkerwel]

Thanks for this work, a good game for Minetest, if possible i would like to have a kind of version number to see when something is updated. otherwiese i always have to download and look if there is a new date in the build....
Maybe its possible to add this versionnumer on the first post or add a kind of historie.
And it would be helpfull to have a kind of manual, so its not guessing what to do to build things or interact with the npc

[Minetestforfun]

it's in github, so you just need to see the commits, if they haven't new commits, they haven't update
https://github.com/Bremaweb/adventuretest/commits/master

[tkerwel]

@ Minetestforfun
Thanks, something new i learned today ;-) nerver looked on github before.

[brep]

I started to try out this game today, but it's running very slowly. Is there any way to increase the speed of the game?

[brep]

Nvm, after reloading the world it started to work much faster.

[dan1101]

Thanks for a great game/mod. When my friend hosts he seems to have the immortal priv; he doesn't get hungry and when he dies he comes right back to the same spot with the same equipment. How can he disable that?

Also, I have looked around but can't figure out crafting. I have a workbench and have leveled up my wood and crafting 1 or 2 notches but still can't seem to make a pickaxe or sword using the standard Minetest formula (sticks and planks.)

The version you are using is outdated, try the game using minetest 4.10 stable from minetest.net/download
or download a development version from the "Builds" forum.

[maikerumine]

My son and I absolutely love this game! The amount of work you put into it really shows, great job!
There were some odd glitches though, when switching from creative to survival mode, the hearts didn't show up and it was not clear what my levels were, I was hosting as server, not single player mode. Also noted that the first time around in death, I was sorta invincible, could continue where I left off and there were no bones. I may need to do a few re-starts from scratch to see if I can duplicate this, as I am able to die now.

[fireuser]

your game is amazing, but I think stamina should recover quicker. when you walk you should not use stamina or at least less stamina. Every thing else is great. the magic is especial good. It is a great game continue the good work. :)

That stamina part got on my nerves. It even hindered movement when I started flying! I've deleted the file beeing responsible for that behaviour in my local version.
Hope BrandonReese comes back eventually and gets rid of too much slowdown. There are also other aspects where the game might be developed further. It's a nice start for people who look for an adventure game.

[BrandonReese]

I am amazed at the responses I am reading, thank you all for your kind words. I have been away for several months (minetest became a bit of an addiction that was cutting into my work so I just had to stop altogether for a while). I do plan on coming back to this project. I have lots of things to finish in November but I'm hoping to have some free time in December that I can use to work on this game.

[Krock]

Oh cool! I look forward to more features :)

[4aiman]

Yay!!! :)
*nonsense*
Feel fancy 'bout replicating some upcoming features <_<
*end of nonsense*

[theoluk]

How do you wake up from Sleep? Also, neither apples nor bread are healing me or restoring my hunger, just being used up.

[philipbenr]

/stand, or /sit. You can also punch (I think).

[MirceaKitsune]

This looks like there is finally a Minetest game to my liking! Many nodes and features, while still keeping a consistent and good looking art style. Really do want!

It does not work with latest Minetest GIT however. The game isn't even listed in the games list from the main menu for some reason. Is anyone still working on it and can fix it please?

[EDIT] Got it to start up, but it crashes immediately after the world loads, apparently with an error about the HUD.

[BrandonReese]

I want to pick back up and start working on this again, but I just don't have a lot of time. I'll see if I push the hud fix tonight. There is a pull request to fix it so I'll see about merging it.

If I get really serious about this game it will probably become a minetest fork. I think I'm going to have to write the mobs and mapgen in C++. On my system just wondering around the map in single player there is significant lag. The lua mapgen and mobs seem to cause the performance issue and maybe rewriting some of than in C++ will help.

Sounds very good! Your game is one that should definitely be included. Good to see you're back!

On my system just wondering around the map in single player there is significant lag. The lua mapgen and mobs seem to cause the performance issue and maybe rewriting some of than in C++ will help.

Lua mapgen does not need to cause lag. I'm pretty satisified with the speed mg_villages has by now. Granted, that one doesn't change every single mapblock (only those that have villages or parts thereof inside them). Anyway...if you want villages, you're no longer limited to a specific mapgen and can choose whichever you want. Withhin limits, of course. There ought to be...ground...of some sort in the mapchunk containing height level 0, but that's a very soft limit. It even works with singlenode mapgen and air, but...then you get floating islands, and that does look odd.

Mobs don't need to be implemented in C++ either. There have been two or three servers recently which do provide mobs and which work surprisingly well. rnd's lab (now closed?) provided fighting against mobs and worked astonishingly well. Xanandu uses lots of mobs on a regular basis, with many players online. Lord of the Test comes with mobs that hop around happily and even attack their enemies if they see them.

What we don't have yet is an integration of both parts. mg_villages just doesn't really have any mobs. It only has very static traders which never move around. A real game ought to provide mobs. Villagers ought to move around (as they do in your game), "talk" to the player, have their own agenda. Animals such as chicken and cows ought to be found close to villages and not in the wilderness.

Some of the problems I stated in an earlier post regarding your Adventuretest game are relevant for a server. Servers need things like /spawn, /home, a protection system and locked chests. Maybe restarting your server (or a new one) hosted by whoever's willing to help might help in getting feedback from players and increase motivation to finish the game :-)
