Can a ABM?
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 16:48ABM change a node to a random node, such as node:alpha_1 to node:alpha_5 and then node:alpha_3 ??

As in:
As in:
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_abm(
{nodenames = {"default:test_1"},
interval = 0,
chance = 1,
action = function(pos)
minetest.env:add_node(pos, {name="default:test_.math.random(1,10)"})
end,
})

Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 16:58I need something like math.random(1,10) to change the nodes around, kddkadenz's desert mod is helping.
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 17:09what are you trying to do?
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 17:13Do something really clever.
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 17:20I just found the answer I hope.
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 17:30I needed to use this:
This under a ABM plus this:
Is how I almost got it to work. This has not BEEN TESTED, WILL GIVE A RELEASE ON GIT SOON.

- Code: Select all
local i = math.random(1,10)
if i = 1 then
minetest.env:add_node(pos, {node:generic})

Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 17:35you want a tv that flickers between channels?
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 17:37No no. But I am almost done. Just add textures.
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 17:49Problem:
This makes an error, and function is (pos) what is my error.

try this instead:

minetest.env:add_node(pos,{type="node",name='node:generic'})

No code change.

Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 18:07if you know which line the errors happenning on post that portion of the code, else post the whole thing and ill take a look
looks more like a LUA syntax/typo thing than a modding API thing

Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 18:28Just made the changes by hand, they work.
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 18:31yeah you had a syntax error here:
shoulda been:
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_node(pos,{type="node",name="tv:screen_5"))

Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 18:32Actually, you don't need the type="node", this seems to check whether the drawtype is, a cube, sign fence post and what not.
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 18:37thats prolly right, half my mods have register crafts that use node "themod:thenode" and the other half use simply themod:thenode
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 18:40I set the interval and chance to 1, 1. They shuffled like dice!
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2012 18:41allright but keep in mind, the more of your nodes are in the game, the more FPS intense the abms get.
