[Modding Tutorial]New node groups
Posted: Fri Mar 23, 2012 18:19Admin Edit: See celeron55's replies.
With the new API we can't use constanttime or something like this,so how can we make a notsoeasytobroke node?
Here's your solution:
Now,for example,i want to make a super-obsidian node,but the cracky level 1 is not enough strong for my level.What can i do?
Don't worry!
Open our init.lua and get an example of the node construction:
This is ready,but the "cracky 1" level doesn't look like an anti-nuclear-geothermal and creeper-pwner block,so how can we make this stronger?
This is so simply,Take "groups" string and make it:
The 4 is a random number,you can insert every number you want to set,but don't use and already used number or there will be a conflict.
Then go to default/init.lua
Now,We must insert this:
(1.00 is the constant time that the tool take to destroy the node)
Where?
In a tool.If we insert this snippet in the tool code,this tool can now broke the node.
So there's an example:
Note:"maxlevel=4"is the max level of the group,always modify that when you add a new group's level!
So now the mese pick can destroy the super obsidian.
Here an example for the steel pick:
Remember to sostitute the code of the tool,never insert 2 definitions of the same tool or the game will not run!
So,The tutorial is finished,Suggestions are accepted.
Good Modding Boihs!

Open our init.lua and get an example of the node construction:
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.register_node("obsidian:superobsidian", {
description = "Super obsidian",
tile_images = {"thegame.png"},
is_ground_content = true,
groups = {cracky=1},
})
This is ready,but the "cracky 1" level doesn't look like an anti-nuclear-geothermal and creeper-pwner block,so how can we make this stronger?

groups = {cracky=4},

Now,We must insert this:

[4]=1.00

minetest.register_tool("default:pick_mese", {
description = "Mese Pickaxe",
inventory_image = "default_tool_mesepick.png",
tool_capabilities = {
full_punch_interval = 1.0,
max_drop_level=3,

cracky={times={[1]=0.2, [2]=0.2, [3]=0.2, [4]=1.00}, maxwear=0.05, maxlevel=4},
crumbly={times={[1]=0.2, [2]=0.2, [3]=0.2}, maxwear=0.05, maxlevel=3},
snappy={times={[1]=0.2, [2]=0.2, [3]=0.2}, maxwear=0.05, maxlevel=3}
