FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

I'm making a mod that allows the player to repair tools. Problem is, CraigyDavi found out something for me - in crafting.lua, Line #553, I found this:

This allows the user to create a tool with normal crafting, like this:

This also works with my enchanted tools:

This shows that any tool can be repaired this way. What I am trying to figure out is; how the heck do I disable this by a mod?

Override it.

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_craft({
   type = "toolrepair",
   additional_wear = 0.8, -- for 80% additional wear
})

Will this work within a new mod?

moreblocks did it too, so I guess it works.
(Well, it just prevents players from repairing their tools)

Thanks alot, worked really well. :)

More Blocks buffs the repairing from 2% bonus to 15% bonus, for that, it replaces -0.02 with -0.15. A positive value damages tools upon repairing.

I need to replace the original repairing code with this new code WITHIN default mod - doesn't seem to override within a new mod, how strange.

Can modpacks override a mod if I have the same name for the mod as a mod which isn't in a modpack?

What does this have to do with repairing tools?
Well, it shoudn't be possible because "world.mt" saves every mod, also those in modpacks

Like I said before:

Just seeing if modpacks override mods with the same name.

I could just tell people to download a new default mod with my new mod which comes with it...
