[Modpack] "Better HUD" and "hunger" [2.x.1] [hud][hunger]

[Nathan.S]

I'm trying to add support for sapier's Animals Modpack, I've added this code

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

if minetest.get_modpath("animals_modpack") ~= nil then
overwrite("cooking:meat_beef_cooked", 5)
end

but I get no health when I eat cooked beef. Looking at the minetest log I know the cooking:meet_beef_cooked is the correct name of the string for the cooked beef, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Could it be that I can't do the modpack, but have to do each mod individually instead?

[Sol]

Yeah, try minetest.get_modpath("cooking")
I doubt that this method works for modpacks.

[Nathan.S]

Yeah, try minetest.get_modpath("cooking")
I doubt that this method works for modpacks.

Thanks so much, that worked.

[BlockMen]

Just for your information, the new system with on_dig callback causes unnaturally fast hunger loss while actively digging nodes with the dig_up function. I fixed this by replacing dig_up with a custom drop_up function, though.

What do you mean with "drop_up" function?

Feel free to make a pull request :)

[Nathan.S]

There should be a pull request, unless I've done something wrong. I've very new at GIT, been using it less than a week. If it's not there, this is the code I added.

+ overwrite("cooking:meat_beef_cooked", 4)
+ overwrite("cooking:fish_bluewhite_cooked", 3)

Well, instead of making unrealistic digging all the way up, it drops every node above as an item.

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

function drop_up( pos, node )
   local np, nn
   for i=1,25 do
      local np = {x = pos.x, y = pos.y + i, z = pos.z}
      local nn = core.get_node(np)
      if nn.name == node.name then
         core.remove_node(np)
         core.add_item( np, node.name )
      else
         return false
      end
   end
end

Oh, had not looked at repository. Yes, is merged ;)

Ehm...and how is dropping each node above as item related to hunger and this mod? I don't get your point. Are you sure you are in the right topic?

[Sol]

Are you sure you are in the right topic?

Yes, I am. When you dig a node that calls default.dig_up

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

register_on_dignode(hud.handle_node_actions)

called multiple times making player exhaust really fast. And that in my opinion is not supposed to happen.
I'm not saying this mod is to blame, I'm just pointing out a problem. (:

aahh, I had to study up on dig_up to see your point, but I for one would disagree. Even though dig_up gives you a time spent short-cut on harvesting, you still need to spend the calories to process that many nodes. If I understand it correctly the same hunger will result from taking 4 nodes of papyrus or whatever, from the bottom as from the top.

Is there a way to combine this mod with the "playertools" mod, thereby allowing the HUD to display a greater number of hotbar cells? The "playertools" mod can create the additional slots on-screen, but they don't line up with the graphical squares on the HUD and it looks really nasty and is hard to follow.

Any thoughts on this?

[mgl]

Submitted a pull request on GitHub to add support for Ferns (of plantlife_modpack), Mobs Redo and update Farming Redo.

There was another topic somewhere this was discussed ( I cant find it though )

The easiest solution is to edit the Hud_hotbar texture in the mod/textures folder

If you switch the amount of cells/slots alot between different games
you might have to write your own mod.

I have been experimenting with one but I cant get the "cells" to line up and it looks horrible

[LodeRunner]

Napiophelios,

Yeah, I've been trying to decide if it's worth it to modify the texture. I could probably program some lua code to check for a minetest.conf reference...I just don't know if I want to spend the time right now. Pretty busy.

If I commit to doing something, I post it up if it's worthy of sharing.

[LodeRunner]

Napiophelios (and others),

I tried altering the texture in GIMP and that was a snap. I then tweaked the hud init.lua so that I could have a reference to the .png file at the top of the code (rather than having to search for it). That worked OK also.

However, if you use unified_inventory (or inventory_plus probably, but I didnt' check that), the 9th, 10th, etc. slot doesn't appear in the menus. You only get 8 hotbar slots on your menus, therefore you cannot utilize any additional slots effectively.

This being the case, a current user would either have to:

1) modify the code for whichever inventory manager mod you use (sounds involved), or
2) switch to using the Crafting mod from BlockMen (which has 9 slots, but involves some caveats of its own).

Since I don't have the time right now and I'm already tweaking some other mods, I'll stick with the default 8 hotbar slots unless someone with more time and ambition want to tackle this project. ;-)

[Napiophelios]

Anything after 8 is just the next row in your inventory.

Adding hotbar slots isnt supposed to increase your inventory size
(if I understand what you are saying correctly)

it just increases the amount of items you have access to without having to open the inventory.

[LodeRunner]

N,

Hmmm...I hadn't noticed this when I did my testing. I may have to backtrack and try a few things.

Thanks for the tip. I'll see what happens.

[varnayskiy]

What's about HUD_HUNGER_EXHAUST_MOVE*2 on jump event?

function hud.handle_node_actions(pos, oldnode, player, ext)

And what ext stands for? Can't understand from where it's value passed to handle_node_actions()?
Thanks in advance.

[rubenwardy]

Are you aware of minetest.register_on_item_eat? You can override the default eat action.

[TenPlus1]

ruberwardy: the hunger.lua file has an overwrite function that replaces the default eat/heart feature and adds healing as well as additional features like hunger and poison...

[rubenwardy]

I am aware of that TenPlus, but using the register_on_item_eat will stop you having to have a list of foods. There are very little poisons supported, these could be handled in the override way rather than overriding every food.

[TenPlus1]

The register_on_item_eat adds a callback AFTER the item has been eaten so the hunger.lua still needs to override the initial values for each food item supported otherwise you eat say an apple and it will add 2 hearts instead of 2 hunger...

You are mistaken. I wrote that callback. You can return non-nil to cancel the default action.

[TenPlus1]

Apologies, I misread the guide on that particular command, it looked like it was called after the fact...

can anyone help me?
when i try to start the server it says :"ERROR:ModError:Failed to load and run
..........\mods\hunger\init.lua
Cheack debug.txt for details
i also dont have all the mods listed in depends.

[ExeterDad]

Without more output from debug.txt it's hard to see whats going on. If I were to guess, I'd say you answered your own question. A mod needs those deps for a reason. They "depend" on them to work as intended.

but i think u are right...i think i need all the depend mods

[Napiophelios]

you dont need every mod listed in the depends text

the mods listed with "?" at the end are soft dependancies (supported mods)

default is the only mandatory dependancy.

with all the various error messages you have posted in different topics
I would think you have a something else going on...like the mod folder's name

rename the folder to: hud (not hunger)

u are helping me on every single topic :) thank you!

[Echoes91]

Good job! This works great and it's the closest thing to a unified hunger system for all those mobs related to food, farming and animal stuff. May I ask why support for "Mobs Redo" has not been implemented yet? That's a common, simple but good and funny mob set, it has already proposed hunger values in its tread and i see that there's already a pull request for them.
I'll upload my own configuration which i use because i find it more rational for a laptop widescreen, expecially for us who didn't play MC and have no need to match its layout :)
