Hi there,

this is a proof of concept mob. cactusguy spawns on grass and takes 3 hits.
get it here:
https://github.com/obneq/wobblycactus/zipball/master

he deals no damage and moves around randomly.

PS better test this in a fresh world

This mod is realy interesting but the mobs are still blocks. Real 3D mobs were possible if the "nodebox" functions will be available for entities.

Works at first, but after a minute or so, it throws an error:

19:38:40: ERROR[main]: ServerError: LuaError: error running function 'on_step': ...anessa/.minetest/mods/minetest/wobblycactus/init.lua:149: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

never had this one myself. its in the check whether a node is walkable or not, so i'm gonna guess its to do with another mods node defs.

You dont see anything interesting on a screenshot because it looks like a normal cactus. The only difference is that it moves and you cant see this on a screenshot.

Hello
looks kinda cool.

but if I enable it, it creates a forrest of Cactyi. And my Server gets laggy.
Is there a possibility to set the Maximum amount and Density of created Cactyi?

Thanks,
JPR
