The mod I've been waiting for, this is great! I'll try it out now...
Edit: I have been wanting to do this for a long time... D: 12 lines of code?
Anyway, great mod!

[TriBlade9]

Yep. Took me about five minutes, and most of it was remembering how to write Lua. :3

[azekill_DIABLO]

oh a question: if orking your mod and would like to know to remove an hud element just after placing it.
Can you help me?

[TriBlade9]

If I understand your question correctly azekill_DIABLO, you're looking for player:hud_remove(id).

[azekill_DIABLO]

yes but how to get the id of the hud_element?

[ExeterDad]

That really gives a nice effect.

[TriBlade9]

yes but how to get the id of the hud_element?

It is returned from add_hud

Or is your question how to get it from my mod?
I'd have to expose it in some way.

[TriBlade9]

That really gives a nice effect.

I think it's one of the big factors that made MT feel so plastic compared to MC.

I may be wrong though. It's very hard to determine what causes subconscious feelings. ;)

i try to get it from your mod....i'm just modifing it :)
i'm adding a special hud on_damage (no problem with this)
buti want i leaves the screen some time after this....

Edit: this is a great mod

[TriBlade9]

Okay, I'll look into exposing the id.

Nice simple small mod! Just a function call and an image. :D

Yeppers. :)

Very nice, i tested it and looks very great!

Impressive simplicity.

On the first line I would prefer this:

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 joinplayer (player)

because creating global variables is not advised when it can be avoided, because it may create confusion if ever another mod uses a variable called "joinplayer". Here, a local variable is better.

[TriBlade9]

Oops, I've been in Node.js-land too long. Forgot that creates a global function.

On the bright side, that will make exposing the id very simple.

It's not necessary to console yourself with the bright side, because it is a one keyword fix. To expose it you can just define a global table named after your mod, and put the function there.

I made a pull request which creates an api for the vignette mod. This allows for other mods to increase or decrease the darkness effect.

Merged, thanks a ton Bas080!

Love this mod! Thank you.

This should be in the game by default, very nice.

[Calinou]

This should be in the game by default, very nice.

Then it should be configurable, I don't personally like vignettes much and I don't think any "competitive" player does.

[BrunoMine]

No matter which the server. This mod is awesome.

should be a setting in the same submenu as enable fullscreen in advanced settings

[BrunoMine]

I believe that this feature should not exist in minetest. This is a unique recusro for survival servers. (Slightly increases the difficulty and puts insecurity player)

I've added to my server.

[TriBlade9]

Glad to see all the positive responses to this! Enjoy it!

I don't have any opinion on whether or not it should be default. That's the realm of the core devs.
