I made a drop of broken node in LUA changing the builtin.lua code.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwSybmvqINo&feature=youtu.be

Q:How can i import this mod?

1.On builtin.lua,Search "minetest.node_dig" (without "",LOL)
2.Where:

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: -- Add dropped items local _, dropped_item for _, dropped_item in ipairs(drops) do digger:get_inventory():add_item("main", dropped_item) end

3.Take:

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: digger:get_inventory():add_item("main", dropped_item)

4.Then Sostitute that with:

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: minetest.env:add_item(pos,dropped_item);

5.This could be the result

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: -- Add dropped items local _, dropped_item for _, dropped_item in ipairs(drops) do --digger:get_inventory():add_item("main", dropped_item) --Original Code's Backup minetest.env:add_item(pos,dropped_item); end

Q:Is there a stay-alone version?

Yes,get it there: http://www.mediafire.com/?hlsoc988x7f5qf4
Not so performable And it's bugged with nodes like stone and dirt with glass because they didn't give the same block,so he doesn't remove.I have no time for fix that,but if somebody wants to fix it's welcome.

Thanks.
This is just a line of code :D Do you think i might do some accelleration on the object?

Hi,

You're amazing,

But you can build a mod ?

For activate and desactivate this option without modify the builtin.lua

Good Jobs.

now all we need is for it to be picked up when you step on it!

Not so easy to make,but why?
Without auto-pickup you can moderate your inventory from useless nodes.

yes but my mouse doesnt enjoy the massive clicking sprees i put it through now any more and my mouse springs will bust im sure

Posted: **Sun Mar 25, 2012 20:42**

Wow, I should have looked at this before I tried to do that lol! I'm going to try to implement the auto-pickup thing.

I think Jeija's mesecon code could help us here...

any updates on auto-picking up the dropped items? I would really like to see that working!

edit: there is code here to do it:

My MiniTest game has Minecraft like drop and pickup. Theres just one mod (item_drop) that do the whole work (you dont have to change any builtin.lua). The problem is that you have to add some code to all registered nodes.

Posted: **Mon Jul 30, 2012 09:41**

I got it working by editing the builtin file, similar to the instructions in the other post, but some things were a little different.

I see you also did this:
>> Imporve picking up of items. Add sound when picking up items.

nice =)

In my game I am having a problem where if you are moving, sometimes the items go past you and fly off into space. How did you deal with that?

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: local items = minetest.env:get_objects_inside_radius(pos,1) for j,item in ipairs(items) do [pick up items] end items = minetest.env:get_objects_inside_radius(pos,2) for j,item in ipairs(items) do [accelerate items in players direction] end

The items in a radius of 2 are accelerated in players direction and the items in a radius of 1 are picked up.
I hope this helps out.

I tried your item_drop mod. Works a treat, no core hack required. I think the greater acceleration, as well as the range you implemented prevents them from flying past you.

What was the thing you had to change in all registered nodes? I didnt have to change anything and it works in mine.

The pickup of items works without changes but if you want that blocks drops items when digged you have have to add this to all register_node methods:

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: after_dig_node = function(pos, oldnode, oldmetadata, digger) item_drop(pos, oldnode, digger) end,

I think there should be something like this:

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: local items = minetest.env:get_objects_inside_radius(pos,1) for j,item in ipairs(items) do [pick up items] end items = minetest.env:get_objects_inside_radius(pos,2) for j,item in ipairs(items) do [accelerate items in players direction] [wait 1 second, if i still exist then find new player pos and accelerate towards them] end

Can this be done?

ahh, yes I did that as a global in builtin/item.lua

Does this support a drop of other items (e.g. dirt_with_grass drops dirt)?

Posted: **Mon Jul 30, 2012 10:24**

you should come in IRC, easier to chat =)

Yep. It even drops the randoms (eg, 1/20 at dropping a sapling when you chop leaves)!

Im on.

I did a few small tweaks...

set the radius to 3, (2 didn't seem like enough reach, 4 was too much)
set the player pos to only p.y+0.5 (instead of 1, this causes the items to shoot towards your waist instead of right at your face)

With the p.y+0.5 you are right but i think a radius of 3 is too much.
