How do you disable the bones mod in minetest 4.7?

[Dan Duncombe]

Select your world, click configure, click on 'bones' and make sure the checkbox 'enabled' is not ticked. It will then not use bones mod in that particular world.

[JBR]

yeah about that... bones doesn't exist i the configure gui and neither does it exist in the world.mt file, help?

[Dan Duncombe]

Then Maybe it isn't in your minetest altogether... Do you still get bones in game?

Yes and it's annoying for what i'm doing. In version 4.6 I could normally just remove it from the world.mt file but it's not even in there now :(

eidt:Also do you know any mods that remove any bone nodes, because they've kind of cluttered my place.

[Dan Duncombe]

Okay... I'm not sure. Maybe ask someone like PilzAdam. I don't have this problem with 0.4.7 stable- I can disable it whenever I want. Maybe backup all of your mods, and worlds, then re-download Minetest stable, reload your mods and worlds, and try again.

[BrandonReese]

Bones are part of minetest_game now, so I think you have to delete the bones folder in minetest_games/mods

[Dan Duncombe]

Good point- but I still thought you could disable it with the configure tab...

No, you can only do that to mods in the {root}/mods folder.

[JBR]

So the only way to stop is to delete the bone mod folder temporary?

[Nore]

Or you can wait until this is merged: https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/pull/177

[rubenwardy]

Yeah

or at the beginning of the bones/init.lua add "return" on its own line.

[JBR]

Ok. Does anyone know a mod to remove the bones from a game?

[BlockMen]

Or just use Minetest+ instead of minetest_game.

It has no bones mod, more features and many tewaked things.

No thanks, all I want is no bones I don't want to change anything else.

Then go to /games/minetest_game/mods/ and delete the folder "bones"

I know! Then I asked if you know any mods that remove all bones in a game?

[Dan Duncombe]

Maybe you could delete the bones folder, then use PilzAdam's unknown node cleanup mod to delete all of the unknown blocks, then re-install bones or leave it.

Good idea, thanks.

[Dan Duncombe]

The cleanup mod is http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=2777 in case you can't find it

This does the trick:

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

minetest.register_abm({
    nodenames = {"bones:bones"},
    interval = 1,
    chance = 1,
    action = function(pos, node)
        minetest.env:remove_node(pos)
    end,
})

I think this would remove the inventory of bones, too.

[cornernote]

Do you mean all the items that were in the bones?

If you don't remove the inventory, what do you do with it?

you could give it to the nearest player(s)

      local inv = meta:get_inventory()
      
      for i = 1, inv:get_size("main") do
         local stack = inv:get_stack("main", i)
         if not stack:is_empty() then
            minetest.add_item(pos, stack)
         end
      end
      minetest.remove_node(pos)
   end
})

Drops the stuff. Solved.

but a lot of dropped items cause lag when viewing them and items disappear after 900s, I think.

[cornernote]

If you just drop it then you end up with all kinds of entities laying around. Why not just leave it in the bones?

[Hybrid Dog]

Why not just leave it in the bones?

the bones become removed

[cornernote]

Let me rephrase... If you are putting the items on the ground, then why remove the bones? I would think its a lot tidier to leave the items in the bones than on the ground.

Yes, but the bones wouldn't be disabled.
