Is it possible to modify the definition a node after it has been registered (for example, modifying a chest without having to change the default mod code) ?

Yes,override.



in ... node properties.

Just overwrite the registration.

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_node("default:chest",...)

in ... node properties.

Just overwrite the registration.

minetest.register_node(" : default:chest",...)

If you want to overwrite the node you must give a name that's equal to original node,so you need "default:chest",

You don't need to put ":" to override them.

He is accessing it from another mod.

Surely he needs it?

I already tried with functions,i think that nodes are the same.
Anyway,modname is a problem but i don't know if ":" will solve it.I never tried with nodes.

Just sayin' :)

Yes you do if you want to override or otherwise add a node in a different namespace.
