Mod won't work
Posted: Thu Nov 01, 2012 14:05Hello, world!
I have tried to make my first mod, which functions as follows: two items will be included - a plain music box, and an 8-bit one. The plain one is made (but does nothing) and can then be crafted into an 8-bit music box with 8 mesecon wires. When left-clicked on, the 8-bit music box will play a tune. Unfortunately, the music will not play upon clicking the box. I have tried to use the debug file produced by the game to correct my code, but after a while I became confused and reverted it to its earlier state.
I have hardly any experience in Lua (less than one session's worth) and this code is based mostly on what I have gathered from reading the Minetest API, combined with C++ experience (I know that the obvious answer would be "learn Lua for a couple of months, THEN write the code.", but I simply do not have the time for a couple of months due to school assignments and other such things.
Here is the code:
Could anybody please tell me what I have done wrong? Thanks!
