Hello,
I'm planning to make my students work on a scale model of our school (and the city afterwards).
My first plan was to use Minecraft, but some legal issues made me look for something else, and I've been adviced to have a look at Minetest. Which sounds great!
My students are between 11 and 15 years old, we're in France.
We obtained a data file of the city's heights / buildings / etc. (a X-Z grid of 5 meters step with the according altitude).
The next step is to model the Minetest world accordingly to these data.
So, we need to create a mod. I'm familiar with C/C++ (doing some homebrew with codeblocks) but not much with lua.
I might not have searched enought, but is there a sample "hello world" mod?
I tried to put a print("Hello") in my init.lua file, but it seems more complexe than that...
For now, I'll start with the superflat mod and add the data reading lines...
