Hello, please, is there a function and or a module Minetest, Minecraft, which scans all external mods (= add-ons / modules), in addition to what is available by default in the base game (without modules) and directly displays that can be manufactured without having to find what and how. The same kind of table on minecraft xbox in fact ?! thank you very much in advance.

Yes, please, that one or more great dev (woman(s) or man(s)) provides that, if there is not yet currently this function, the table shows that all the can be made and how, +or- (but best as possible) as the xbox. Thank you, please, always.

In all modules and in the base game (with or without modules here), readable by the function and or special module, you need to add tags (( < / explanatory:en-US > )) around to the explanatory text, of what this object is, how to make it in the workshop (crafting table) and how to use it, (with management languages translation, and in to files standardized to provide the translated text, otherwise english by default, but the tree (the structure to add translations) should be there already in place), and to retrieve other information about objects that can be made it in the crafting table (such as what resources are needed). For "what resources are needed", the code can be scanned but it would be better to have tags dedicated to accelerate research that can be produced when opening the workshop. Thank you in advance for improvements.

(It lacks a graphical system to modify all configuration files (as i see it is often necessary to modify the files to activate an option or otherwise), the same idea of compatibility and be able to read external modules for the workshop (crafting table) :

- 1a) There should have a window like the Windows Notepad (like theme xp) ;
- 1b) At right (reading a special file containing all the possibilities for the current file, and also reading all special file of the modules may contain a change to the current file), such as vertical tabs that are in fact each of them, an available line (the name of an option tag) in the file open on the left.
- 1b=>) * Each lines at right or tabs should have a drop down menu with multiple choices, with the help and explanation (with a translation) of each attribute / value data and there would have a button to add or remove the option.
- 1b=-=>) - If possible, with a system of sorts to find out which options are placed on the lines.
- 1b=>) * Should be able to undo / redo the last action (with tracking, for see, what is going to be canceled (undo) / redo again) and see if something has changed (Apply button grayed out as nothing is changed).
- 1c) The end of the line (carriage return) Linux / Windows to be processed automatically and also correctly.

Thank you tremendously please.)

/!\ The advantage with the game minetest is that we are not obliged to register and have internet !

hi, can someone make a mod that lets some people on a server be in creative mode, and some in survival mode. possible like a command: /gamemode [creative/survival]
thanks

[Kryuko]

Hi.
Can someone make tpa mod?
In minecraft, the tpa is a teleport for the normal users, when someone using tpa for teleporting to another user, this user receive one teleport request, he can accept the teleport or decline.

Can someone make it please?

I've found some topic about the "fun" (http://minetest.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=4050) and want to expand the griefing theme.
The main point of some users was that protection make it impossible to come an conquer some area like it happened in the real history - with the destruction of the buildings and so on. I do NOT appreciate griefing, but that topic make me think that it could be some fun in griefing IF:
- each player by placing any block obtains exlusive rights to the area around that block (placed block + one block around that);
- if the area is taken allready, the player should get a mesage of that very fact;
- the owner of that area should be notified that he have a message, asking for building on his territory;
- there were protection of the buildings made by currently offline players;
- the buildings must be destroyable only when their owner can protect them e.g. when he or she is online;
- there should be parties or "home city" identification and that should be displayed near the nickname;
- only parties that has declared "war" to each other could grief each other's buildings;
- only councilium of all party members may decide to declare a war;
- war would be declared when no less than 70% is for it;
- those, who was against the war should have a chance to switch their parties (but not for any of that which would be at war with their current);
- those, who was against the war should have a chance to create a new party;
- those, who was against the war must be able to live in ther houses undisturbed, but if they would go outside - they can get killed - a war is a war, jus consider neutral citizen house=bunker ;)

I believe with that implemented some people would enjoy it ;)

Good idea! no idea how to code it...

[tux_peng]

Change player model, like MineLittlePony

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/748553-181-mine-little-pony-v01/

[jmf]

tux_peng: you can make a new player model easily.
If the server has got this model, every player uses it.
Add textures to it and you have got your pony mod.

[Maro]

A Mobs (creepers and villagers) mod and an Armor mod.

[Chinchow]

A Mobs (creepers and villagers) mod and an Armor mod.

There is 2D mobs mod and a 3d npc mod as for armor Nubelite made one although you can't see it on your player btw creepers are from minecraft if you want minecraft things go play minecraft

[Josh]

if you want minecraft things go play minecraft

Exactly, This is mineTEST :)

Pilzadam's quest

Salutation's sir Pilzadam the noble king of minetest challeges you to make a Realistic-looking chest like you see in dungeons and other similar places. It's look can be 3D shaped, size is your choice and it has to open. Succeed in your quest and you will receive a mese cookie.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
P.S: You don't have to make this, but it would be intresting :)

The nodeboxes for the opened and the closed state are easy to do but there are two problems:
1.: The animation to open the chest isnt possible.
2.: There are no callbacks in the API to register when a chest is opened/closed.

[Chinchow]

How about a teslacoil one that would emit lightning around it and shock the player it touches and it could be harvested with lightning rods and crafted into useful things

It *may* be possible (theoretically, haven't tested it).
First you make two nodes: a closed chest, and an open chest. Then, you make it so punching the node switches the node (i.e: changes the open one to the closed one and viceversa), and you only define right-clicking for the "open" chest.
EDIT: I may do it if someone makes the nodebox for me.
EDIT2: BTW, yes, the animation may also be possible using some clever way, like how falling nodes and mesecons movestones are implemented.

Animation is possible with the new models code and an entity. I may do this part...

OK I'm gonna suggest a mod that I was gonna make and just wanted more ideas to add to it but it got closed because someone mistook it for a request so now it is I want a mod that adds more liquids other than water and lava

[jojoa1997]

liquid that floats

[Ragnar]

@doggy i could make an expansion pack for my mod with new liquids, that you can tweak to make a new mod maybe =)

1. Am I doggy or is everyone doggy cause if everyone is doggy @doggy would be hard to understand

2.go ahead looking forward to it

[Ragnar]

i reconize you, but i never was good with remembering names... and youre doggy =)

Ban which works even when player is offline, and when he trying to connect server is adding his IP to banlist.

Edit:

Command will add name to "future ban list". Server could compare logged player's name with this list and ban if name match to the list.

HOW ABOUT A [FORCEFIELD]

*Made of cery clear undestructible glass.
*It can reduce griefing.






COULD THIS BE DONE?

Isn't that just making a new glass with a 0 in the area that determines durability?
