[Mod] Player Must Have Item [mod]

[lordfingle]

This is the musthave mod, the mod for game creators that want to insist that players be carrying certain items at all times.

Download at https://github.com/eidy/musthave/archive/master.zip

Specify some item types that the player must always have one of in their inventory. They can't drop it and if it's trashed it will just be re-created.

Could be used for a loadstone or similarly sticky magical item.

minetest.conf Parameters

musthave

If set, every player must have the items specified.

eg

musthave="default:dirt,default:stone"

(Because it's always handy to have some dirt and stone)

API

musthave.set(playername, itemlist)

Specifies a list of items a specific player must have.
(Note: This is not currently saved)

musthave.get(playername)

Returns a table of items (spec strings) the player must have

That's an interesting idea.
Could the mod also have mustnothave?

Must not have is remove the item from the game as if you can NEVER have it why have it in code

Not true.

There are plenty of mods that I run that I'd like to still have available when playing with my 5 year old, yet, limit what items he can/cannot have, without taking those items from me.

Same on any server where admins must have items, and users must not ever have certain items. Added security. Worth a try at the least.

i thought you meant all players couldn't have it, makes more sense now

I suggest renaming this mod to "Players Must Have Item", as "must have mod" sounds like you must have the mod

The title would then be "[Mod] Player Must Have Item [player_must_have_item]"

but... i clicked this because i thought i must have this mod...

:P

I agree with the rename, although it does make it sound less exciting (which is appropriate i guess)
