FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

I have a few different questions about modding.

• First, is it possible to allow a node to drop a specific item when dug with a certain tool? And if so, how?
• Second, would it be possible to make that item drop where you dug the node instead of it going directly to your inventory?

Thanks in advance for any help. This is all going to my development of the obsidian mod.

- Very Hard to make, but it could be done
- minetest.env:add_item

You can overwrite the node's "on_dig" callback; See builtin.lua for what to do in it.

Thanks. I can see what I can do.
