If you are intending for this sub-game to have a classical look to it, then the following might be of interest to you:
https://github.com/sfan5/minetest/tree/mapgenv5Of course, mapgen v5 would have to be re-added to Minetest first (and updated.)

I think I will keep mapgen v6 as default.

I was able to remove half of my mods because they have been implemented here, and better at that (hitting a mob causes them to jump like minecraft, which IMO makes it feel more lively.)
My only real complaint is the death sound used. For a fairly wholesome game, why did you pick Open Arena's gibbing sound? It doesn't fit at all!
I think
this sound from Red Eclipse fits the mood of the game much better.
The player isn't a robot and the death sound must remain gender-neutral.
Callinou, the link below might provide the solution to your dilemna concerning player death and player injury sound effects:
https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=10013Just uploaded those sound effects today.

Just installed Minetest, tried some things out for a few days and just installed Carbone and set up a world with it and just after not even two minutes of walking around I found this …
I learned that Nyan Cats are very rare, so … how common is this with Carbone? :)

Carbone makes them spawn at any altitude (unlike minetest_game where they only spawn below sea level, so mostly underground), they are also slightly more common.

I just started another world (still testing things out) and found two more a few blocks away from spawn :)
It’s actually pretty great to have Carbone. It feels very balanced and complex. Is there a list of features added by all the mods or do we need to check the features and crafting recipes for each mod individually?

The first post has a changes and included mods list, that's all. Some mods are also posted individually in the Mod Releases forum.

Thx Calinou for this game.
- Is there a way to disable Nyan Cats? I don't see the point of them, and find them a bit ugly.
- I like the achievement system, but I do not like the popup message where I have to escape it. Is it because off the use of formspec? Couldit not be implemented using the HUD API instead?
- Also for some reason it is not very lively, lots of rats, few sheep and only one monster (tree), Is it supposed to be like that?
/Edit:
Answering my own question, formspect usage for achievement can be disable in awards/config.txt.
Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.
I still thing that using the HUD would have been better

You can disable Nyan Cats by editing
mods/default/mapgen.lua, line
792, comment the line by writing
-- (two dashes) at the beginning of it. Nyan Cats will still exist in already generated areas, but won't generate in new areas anymore.
I have removed the Awards mod entirely, as it's outdated and I don't find it useful. People can install it as a mod anyway.

Linuxdirk (who is also in this forum) didn't posted it, but I think you would like to see that your game is being used and promoted on youtube.

Hello
I dont want to change anything in the Game because of updates.
I have to redo the changes then and this could be a hassle if there are more than only this one change.
But thanks,

I just tested this and it worked for me on Windows XP.
Create a crosshair.png file and place it in your minetest\textures\base\pack folder. Put it there and it will become the default cross hair in the game. If you use a texture pack or play a game or mod that modifies the crosshair then you will get their crosshair instead of your own.
EDIT: Since you are playing carbone likely, changing the texture in the minetest\games\carbone\mods\default\textures folder will be what you want to replace.
EDIT #2: If you want, you could create your own texture pack that only has the crosshair.png file and set it as your default texture pack and it should override any mods/game modes that might have the crosshair. It should just use whatever textures that are already specified by whatever mods/game modes that you are using uses.

Just a quick question … I stumbled upon
this guy lately and tried to kill him with an iron sword. I repeadetly hit him but nothing happened (no obvious indicators for damage on the mob and no usage bar on the sword).
How to kill it?

I think the pickaxe works best damage wise on the rock monster. It could be totally wrong but it seems like it does to me. There is no health bars yet, to find out monster hp press F5 on your keyboard and any creatures you are looking at will have a little message to the left with their hp and other info. Hope that helps.

Indeed, and i add : if the monster has a lot of armor and your tool is too low/weak, you will not be able to inflict for damages to the monster... (or inflict 1damage point, but if it has 50hp...)

@JPRuehmann:
Check out Kaeza's Misc Stuff modpack, one of them places a crosshair, you can edit that one to make it be like you want.

I really like Carbone and running a headless server of your subgame is a joy! It hardly taxes my CPU during play and is nearly non existant when idle. I also like the achievment messages and coins but would like a way to use them. I noticed your idea:
Calinou wrote:Coins have no purpose currently. It's unknown if they'll have any use some day, due to balance issues, but maybe each kind of coin will allow you to buy upgrades (something like copper = jump, silver = speed, gold = gravity).
This seems like a fun way to use coins. They are piling up fast!
I'd like to add some more creatures to my Carbone server but found that Animals Modpack 2.4 (and the requisite Advanced Spawning 0.0.10) grind the server to 100%. Is there a mod you can recommend to add more creatures to Carbone and keep the server from grinding?
I run a headless server, I have not found a way to load mods unless they are put in the .mintestest/games/carbone/mods/ folder.
Is that the right place to put them or should I put mods in .minetest/mods/ ? How do I activate them on a headless server?.
What other mods play well with Carbone?
Do players have to have Carbone and (mods that I add) installed to join my server?
many thanks!

Simply smelting coins to ore seems a bit sad as the coins are given as an achievement and ore can be obtained in greater quantities simply from mining. I can also get a coin each time I use TNT but I'm not sure if that is intentional though.

Since there is no other use for coins right now smelting them into ingots seems okay for me (I just have too many of them *g*).
