Making a program to help making of mods/games

[lkjoel]

Now what I need to do is to change the crafting table so that this:

would output this (ignore the output, just the recipe):

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_craft({
    output = ?,
    recipe = {
        {'default:wood'},
    }
})

instead of 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

minetest.register_craft({
    output = ?,
    recipe = {
        {'','',''},
        {'','default:wood',''},
        {'','',''},
    }
})

Anyone has suggestions on how to do this?

btw, sfan5, I'm commenting the code, and then I'll add you :)

Ok

Have a checkbox for enforcing position that switches the code.

[lkjoel]

yes, it's the switching the code part that I'm having trouble with lol. Well, I think I'm getting close to the answer (after like 100-200 lines of code)...

[lkjoel]

well, the crafting thing is almost done

[lkjoel]

It works!!!

So here is the new screenshot (notice the output of the recipe):

:) Can you add me on github now?

Nice :D (I tried it)
It needs "Browse" buttons to choose pictures, like the ones here:
http://www.text-image.com/convert/ascii.html (just an example)

[jn]

It should be output = "c9:Cloud9" instead of output = c9:Cloud9, shouldn't it?

[LorenzoVulcan]

It should be output = "c9:Cloud9" instead of output = c9:Cloud9, shouldn't it?

Yep!That's right.

[cosarara97]

It also needs a "remove block" button :D (Yep, I'm using it for my first mod, despite I could write it manually xD)
EDIT: Ok, too many things needed, I think for now I'll write code :D

[SelfishCar]

If you guys make this happen, there will be so many more mods...
You know, only experienced modders create mods for MT right now (right?)! But if lkjoel creates this program, almost anybody will be able to create a mod!

Thank you.

[Hackeridze]

That's for noobs, It's like a WSYWIG html editors! but more bad, IMHO.

Its very exciting:D

[lkjoel]

ASAP :). Is it ok if we work on the forking system? it would be simpler for me

[lkjoel]

Later, as this requires a lot of PHP, and the only way we can test it is to always upload it to SF.net, and this would require a lot of time (I am planning on doing this though, but later).

[lkjoel]

It should be output = "c9:Cloud9" instead of output = c9:Cloud9, shouldn't it?

Thanks, I'll change that. Is there any difference between single and double quotes in LUA?

[lkjoel]

...

I think if I understand, it would be the trash, right? Whenever you drag a block there, it deletes it. If you mean delete a custom-made block, it's just by closing the dialog that contains the block

Lol. It's just 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

<input type=file size=50>

So the dialog needs to be open to see the block in-game? I think what that guy ment was there should be like a browser for the blocks that have been made with this program. And a feature to delete them from the game.

Well, I actually meant something like the trash, which I hadn't seen, and doesn't actually work for me. Closing the dialog doesn't remove them from the blocks list either. Maybe I have to clone from git again for an updated version...

[Death Dealer]

Oh ok:D

No, not really.

Yes, but where and how do we store it?

Good idea! I'm gonna include that

I haven't implemented that yet, but I think I should use Death Dealer's idea, as it seems better

No, not really.

That's interesting... I think I'm gonna stick with single quotes then

^_^ glad to help in some way.
