Set the required tool

[burli]

I want to set the minimal required tool for nodes. For example to dig silver you need a steel picaxe, to dig mese you need a silver picaxe and so on. Also some hard stones like marble should need a better tool. I'm still struggling with groups.

cracky is has to be used with picaxe, but how can I define which picaxe it should be?

Ok, try to explain myself what I found.

The picaxe have this values

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

cracky = {times={[3]=1.60}, uses=10, maxlevel=1} #wooden picaxe
cracky = {times={[1]=4.00, [2]=1.60, [3]=0.80}, uses=20, maxlevel=2} #steel picaxe

Some nodes have this values

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

groups = {cracky = 3, stone = 1} #stone
groups = {cracky = 2, stone = 1} #stonebrick

cracky is the digging time per level. That means digging stone with a wooden picaxe takes 1.60 (seconds?), with a steel picaxe it takes 0.80. stonebrick is not diggable with a wooden picaxe

But the second parameter confuses me. stone = 1. Some cracky nodes have a stone parameter, some have a level parameter like obsidian and sandstonebrick has just cracky.

And how does it work with maxlevel?

These are not parameters but groups. Groups are used for many purposes. "cracky" group is for nodes breakable with pickaxe (and the number is the associated level). "stone" group is only for gathering stone nodes (usable to craft stone tools). Value 1 is always given to such groups that don't deal with levels.

Maybe I can explain maxlevel myself.

stone_with_diamond has only one group: cracky = 1
diamondblock has the groups cracky = 1, level = 3

Steel picaxe has cracky times[1] = 4 and maxlevel=2, that means, a steel picaxe can digg stone_with_diamond in 4 seconds, but can't digg a diamondblock.

To digg a diamondblock I need a mese pickaxe with maxlevel=3

Is that correct so far?

[burli]

"stone" group is only for gathering stone nodes (usable to craft stone tools)

That means, each node in the stone group can be used for example to craft a stone sword or another stone tool
