FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

on a server i was on you were able to hold 495 cobblestone, dirt, sand, ect. does anyone know what mod that is? /mods doesnt show any mods and no one on server is of help

OK this mod to game is good but have more and will just stay with this post. I have been on a few more servers that end up shutting down but see interesting things

!.) obsidian tools (well really just remember the sledge hammer)

2.) you built these blocks and placed them and it automatically built buildings and farms(one was a really cool mansion)

3.) This I dont know if exists and might have something with seed(which I found very little info on) I am still trying to do a server but want at least the spawn area to be semi-flat to create a nice town, any ideas besides manual leveling?

4.) this exists but I still can't figure it out, is there a list of privs or a post on privs that better explain them and how to use them (i try search privs and such in board index but come up short to valid useable info)

Most likely someone modified the default game so stack size was increased. They likely never put it out in a mod. They might have put it out but a stack size isn't enough to go on for a mod.

some subgames change the amount possible for certain stacks. Maybe you should find out what game was used. If it wasn't server specific you might have luck. Carbone for example allows coins to be stackable to 10000.

You can search the Minetest Games thread in the forums for details or start by looking at the notable games listed on the Games page on the wiki first. A much larger list of games is on the wiki page "List of Games".

happy searching :-)

do you know where that can be changed? I tried but could not find it

see for example the bucket mod in minetest/games/minetest_game/mods/bucket to see a stack size of 1 (unstackable) applied.

You could add in minetest_game/default/init.lua the following code. But make sure you add it before all the "dofile".

hmm, with minetest.setting_get one could query the mintest.conf for custom values to override the default values.
This way the value tweaking is put into the config file where it belongs. Maybe values could even be world specific if a minetest.conf is supplied in the world folder of concern and if none is supplied fallback to the default values - or at least I presume so. Would need some testing.

I changed that but it didnt do anything in game.

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

-- Define default max stack
local stack = minetest.setting_get("stack_max")
if not stack then
   stack = 90
end
minetest.nodedef_default.stack_max = stack
minetest.craftitemdef_default.stack_max = stack

I dont even know the first thing of programming but adding something seems easy but I couldnt find the default under minetest_game

I have opened just about every single file looking for this are we sure there is no mod that does this?

thank you that works unfortunately it does not for dreambuilder but thats ok im creating my own style game anyway

It should work in dream builder. Insert casmirs patch at the top of default/init.lua

edit original post

!) Easy to copy & paste from minetest_game/mods/default/tools.lua and create a texture for it. I don't know any (public) mod which contains obsidian pickaxes.

Thank you for the info. It wasn't just obsidian graphics it was an obsidian sledge hammer and when you used it it cleared the block you hit and all blocks around it so it actually cleared 9 blocks one hit and made awesome tunnels. It was on trainwrecktony's server but he shut it down because of stuff in his life
