scaffolding - say goodbye to dirt scaffolding

The Mod

getting sick of using dirt as scaffolding? if so this is the mod for you.
This mod adds 2 blocks to minetest;

> Wooden scaffolding
> Iron scaffolding

The wooden scaffolding allows the player to go up and down like a ladder. also when you destroy the bottom block the whole thing falls down making it easy to remove.
The iron scaffolding allows the player to walk along in, and when you destroy one of the blocks the whole thing falls down.

Whats new

> blocks have textures a new texture on the top and bottom

Coming soon

> player dose not have to walk inside the block to go up it
> block that falls (like sand)

Download

Infinatum Minetest will be down on 04/11/14 due to server maintenance. we will be back up ASP

1: PICS DO NOT work
2: from what youve told me every thing is a block you should use selection box or something like that so steel scaffolding should be simialer to vanessas pipes and wooden scaffolding should be like snow but still good job

Pics work for me

(A license would be good.)
I like that there are two different types, and the way they look.

Changed the code a bit:

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: local function dig_up(pos, node, metadata, digger) if digger == nil then return end local np = {x = pos.x, y = pos.y + 1, z = pos.z} local nn = minetest.env:get_node(np) if nn.name == node.name then minetest.node_dig(np, nn, digger) end end minetest.register_node("scaffolding:wood", { description = "scaffolding", drawtype = "nodebox", tiles = {"scaffolding_wood_top.png", "scaffolding_wood_top.png", "scaffolding_wood.png", "scaffolding_wood.png", "scaffolding_wood.png", "scaffolding_wood.png"}, paramtype = "light", climbable = true, walkable = false, is_ground_content = true, after_dig_node = function(pos, node, metadata, digger) dig_up(pos, node, metadata, digger) end, groups = {snappy=2,cracky=3,oddly_breakable_by_hand=3}, sounds = default.node_sound_wood_defaults(), }) minetest.register_node("scaffolding:iron", { description = "scaffolding", drawtype = "nodebox", tiles = {"scaffolding_iron_top.png", "scaffolding_iron_top.png", "scaffolding_iron.png", "scaffolding_iron.png", "scaffolding_iron.png", "scaffolding_iron.png"}, paramtype = "light", climbable = true, walkable = true, is_ground_content = true, after_dig_node = function(pos, node, metadata, digger) dig_up(pos, node, metadata, digger) end, groups = {snappy=2,cracky=3}, sounds = default.node_sound_wood_defaults(), }) minetest.register_craft({ output = 'scaffolding:wood 6', recipe = { {'default:wood', 'default:wood', 'default:wood'}, {'default:stick', '', 'default:stick'}, {'default:wood', 'default:wood', 'default:wood'}, } }) minetest.register_craft({ output = 'scaffolding:iron 6', recipe = { {'default:wood', 'default:wood', 'default:wood'}, {'default:steel_ingot', '', 'default:steel_ingot'}, {'default:wood', 'default:wood', 'default:wood'}, } })

There is no need for facedir, you don't need to define a nodebox. I dropped the dependence on darkage and made the names more clear. Using only one function. No drop.

Aww, dangit, I was going to make a mod exactly like this. Oh well, great mod anyway. :P

Ah, this sounds interesting! I'll try it out!

Useful mod. It would be great if it where actually possible to download it (JavaScript + Flash needed -> no download possible).

Here is the link from my dropbox. I think it will work for you. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/nx7npmywjx92ud3/scaffolding.zip?token_hash=AAF7z19pN1wz3P78SS8g84wWIIgeqyy_cGr5wWTOwB_w1Q&dl=1

I don't understand what you mean by java and flash is needed for the download.
I use Firefox as my web browser and i have just disabled all of my add-ons and plugins and the download still worked. If the is a problem with the download link for anyone please report it.

Thanks

I Agree with disabling Flash
Flash is just a really big, much cpu using, unstable, and unsafe, plugin. (i have it disabled too)

But Javascript ist not Java! Javascript ist not Microsofts JScript
Javascript is nothing evil! (if you use a modern Browser)
why you have it disabled?

But in this point i agree: downloads and webpages must be accessible without Flash and Javascript

@ Semmett9 : Go in Firefox to Settings -> content -> Activate Javascript

For what I want of web pages - information, text, sometimes images - JavaScript plain simply is not required and just a security hole. That download site most likely needs it to present advertisement. Advertisement, tracking sites (facebook, google analytics etc.), exitedly flashing content, menus made especially annoying - that's what JavaScript is used for. Since I want none of that, I disabled it. Sites that have good reason to use JavaScript (i.e. have to do calculations client-side) and an excellent reputation may get whitelisted in my NoScript config.

Javascript is nothing evil if it is used the way it is ment to. I don't think javascript was originally made for tracking people and advertising.
Also download should have a direct link so it can be downloaded from command line, most servers don't have a GUI.
edit: oh, and good mod. Forgot the essential ;)

if anyone dose not like add-fly or don't like the way add-fly uses flash or java just use the Direct link, which skips add-fly.

however you just have to wait 5 seconds, then you can skip the add. (the flash/java used dose not affect the download)

Quite a few people have AdBlock you know, so AdFly and YOU lose money.

The destruction works really neatly.
