Question about Damage system

[BadWolf]

Hello,

I'm currently working on modding a game for a private server for a group of friends. What I'm wanting to achieve is to turn off PvP, while maintaining player damage via falls, and the simple_mobs monsters. This is the plan currently, create a new damage group called "human" change the players damage group to human, and the mobs attack mode. I found the line "damage_groups = {fleshy=self.damage}" in mobs/api.lua, but I have not been able to find the code to set the players damage or armor group, or the part of the code that damages the player upon fall. First, where will I find these? Second, will this work, am I crazy?

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

enable_pvp = false

in minetest.conf

Thanks, PilzAdam.

Although it seems like this also disables player-versus-Mob. That's not what I'd like, I'd like to be able to fight and be hit by the Simple_Mobs, Mobs, but not player vs player

[PilzAdam]

It only disables player versus player, everything else is unaffected.

I tried that switch though when I set enable_pvp = false. A Sand monster comes up to me and does no damage. I can still kill it, but it doesn't seem to be able to kill me

is it possible? to add new damage groups?
