I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe. Whether the temperature is high or low, regardless of cold winds blow, away we go like Edgar Allan Poe, on now with the show. BTW rhymes are welcome.

Chests

How would I turn a node into a chest, with a larger inventory than normal? The node name is nanotech:carbon_chest

Copy the code from minetest_game/mods/default/init.lua, and adapt as needed.

Ah yes, the default node init.lua is probably the best documentation that I have used to date. :P

Well, the chest is in nodes.lua, not in init.lua.
