FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Finally, after a long burning desire to make a Minetest mod, I finally made one, but it's a rather fruity one.

Indeed it is so that the mod I developed, is one where you can mine for candy cane block, and craft them into tools and even smelt them to make edible candy canes! Eating 1 candy block restores 1 heart, while eating 1 candy cane restores 2 hearts. It is as scarse as coal, so you can find it fairly easily.

From my knowledge it only works on 0.4.8.

Sweet! Perhaps you can make the pickaxe eatable.

But then if you punch anything with it, the picaxe is gone. D: Also, the word is edible, not eatable.

Evergreen's right, even though that would be awesome. XD

Have you considered asking VanessaE to make HDX textures for this mod in her HDX texture packs? If not, then I will go ahead and ask her.

VanessaE gets most of her source images for her HDX texture packs from Wikimedia Commons. If you can find a source image that can be made into a 512px texture, then you have done well.

Nice! +1

You Could Make It Lose Durability Instead Of It Being Gone. Like You could eat it once and it would lose half its durability And Eat It Again And It Breaks. Good Idea?

That still wouldn't change the fact that when you use the tool, you would still take half its duribility. The eating and the digging conflicts no matter what.

Thats kinda the point. Its as rare as coal and digs as fast as mese. It should break fast or else it would be SUPER op. I mean you could find it pretty much anywhere

HDX supports this mod now. Minor bug in the mod: the placed candy cane object lacks appropriate lighting. It should be sufficient to add paramtype="light", to the node def.

But then you can just decrease the duribility. No sense in doing it by eating it.

Added paramtype="light", to node def, 1.1 now downloadable.
Btw thanks for adding my mod to HDX. :)
