Hello. I'm glad to present you my new mod:
ts_doors

ts_doors adds normal and locked doors for every kind of wood. Moretrees is also supported.

Here's a screenshot:

Depends: default, doors, moretrees (optional)

The prefix "ts_" is there to avoid namespace conflicts.

I like the padlocks for locked doors..., neat idea

move to default please

Thanks for your feedback. I'm glad to hear that you like my mod.

very nice mod! should be default!

agreed!

+1

Update: I fixed a bug regarding groups. Please download the new version at https://github.com/minetest-mods/ts_doors.

Update: Added opaque doors.

On the To-Do list:
Trapdoors

nice!! also think to add metal version for every ore!!!

Metal versions are planned, but you will have to wait a bit until they will come.

no problem!

I have the default doors in mydoors. Thomas you could take them from there.

Thank you very much for the offer. However, I plan a different implementation, but I have to wait for some engine changes.

Update: Added trapdoors!

great! screenshots?

Nice to see doors made out of diffrent wood types. Good doors are always nice to have in this game as they improve the appearance of simple houses a lot.

Thanks for the feedback. I will add a new screenshot when this mod will become stable.

+1 for everything you've done there!!!

Update

The long-awaited update arrived. The changes:

• Added metal doors
• Some bugfixes

Please test this version. This might become the stable one.

Some comments:

- Yay for more metal doors, especially gold (gold is way too underused in Minetest Game)
- Yay for more doors in general, thank you. :-)
- Sounds are odd. Steel sounds are used for locked doors and wood sounds for unlocked doors. This means, a unlocked steel door has a wood sound and a locked wooden door has a metal sound. xD The door sounds should be based on material rather than locked/unlocked.
- Item descriptions overlap; e.g. door with/without windows have equal description
- Item description of locked door should be “Locked <Material> Door” instead of “<Material> Locked Door”, e.g. “Locked Steel Door”
- The door “Steel Locked Door” (ts_doors:door_locked_default_steelblock) is a special case as it is technically equal to the original Steel Door from Minetest Game, so this door is a duplicate. Maybe you could just overwrite the original item instead of registering a new one; I think all you need to do is to supply a new description and replace the texture (look into the doors mod to find the name).
- Keeping the original wooden door is OK to me as this recipe is based on the wood group, so there is always a wooden fallback door available for other wood types or mixing. For clarity, I suggest to overwrite the description and change it to “Mixed Wooden Door”. Maybe you could even overwrite the texture to make it stand out from the rest; maybe it could looks like a “patchwork” door with several woods used. :-)
- The same applies to the default trapdoors, of course
- Neither wood nor steel open/close sounds fit to diamond door IMO. This door could benefit from custom sounds
- I like all textures except the diamond doors, especially the windowed one. Diamond door is a bit too dark for my taste and it does not really look precious for its high price. IMO it should stand out from the rest and look really luxurious
- I like windowless doors. Good when privacy is important. :D
- However, light goes through all windowless doors. Sadly, this is a limitation of the engine as far I know. :-(

Would like to see this in default.
