Do you know if I can use a node as placer for minetest.item_place_node ?
If not, is there a workaround ?

Thanks in advance !

I dont understand the question.

Well, the documentations says that:

minetest.item_place_node(itemstack, placer, pointed_thing)

Place item as a node

itemstack — ItemStack
placer — ObjectRef
pointed_thing — pointed_thing

However, I want a node to execute that command without a player (placer).
Is there a way to do it?

Oh, the reason I didnt understand you was that you wanted a node to call this. Nodes cant call functions.
So you want to call this function in your mod without having a player reference?
If so just use nil instead of a player reference.

Thank you!


About node calling functions, it is with mesecons...
