Adds backpacks made of wool and leather, that can store anything but themselves in an 8*4 8*2 inventory. The backpacks can only be accessed once they're placed. Picking them up preserves their contents. They obey regular protection rules.

these are pretty neat, it reminds me of prestibags mod.

I think it should not be able to hold as much as a chest though.
Also think it would be better to just have one type based on a single texture
instead of registering 16 different backpacks using the wool textures.

any way, its a cool mod despite my opinion :)

Okay, now it's just a wool backpack and leather backpack. Inventory was reduced to half.

unified_inventory also has bags, though those are mostly items that store other items. They do not really appear ingame apart from beeing a craftitem. Your bag gave me an idea...how about changing the player model if and when the player carries a bag?

That was the original intention. Also, swapping backpacks would swap your lower 8*3 inventory.

PS. I got it to work, I don't remember where exactly I left off. Probably around the time I noticed problems with drag & drop into forbidden lists.

Nice mod ! I was looking for something like that !

depends.txt is wrong though : there is hard dependency on "mobs"

Checking for the mod existence before registering leather backpack recipe would fix it

Thanks for the suggestion

I've updated this so that the leather backpack and the recipe are both dependent on mobs

Nice ! But you should check the existence of mobs mod using minetest.get_modpath instead of (or at least before) looking for the mobs variable, mainly because it result in this warning if the table doesn't exist :

and also because an other mods could have a variable called mobs (even if they should not)

I've updated the mod to use colourful backpacks. Should make sorting a little easier.

I would remove the 'mobs' dependency from the depends.txt file and use something like this instead:

if minetest.get_modpath("mobs") then
-- add recipe here
end

nice I like this I can mine for longer
