Re: Post your mapgen questions here (modding or engine)
is it possible to obtain a vmanip of an area that hasnt been emerged or generated yet? if yes, will the singlenode mapgen eventually overwrite it with air?

Re: [Server] Inside The Box [Puzzles]
Hey there ! If you need some walkthrough boxes, you can check my new channel on You Tube : PapaRubby And if you need one that is not on the list, just ask for it ! hey, nice to see people solving my boxes! Did you really finish Stairways and Confusion with those jumps or just for the speedrun? most...

Re: [Server] Inside The Box [Puzzles]
There's actually a really good idea here - perhaps we can maybe at some point make this happen... That's a terrible idea. This just adds content for prestige's sake and circumvents the strict quality control. Series should be created based on theme/gameplay, not based on the author. Otherwise we'll...

Re: [Server] Inside The Box [Puzzles]
PS : @sofar will there be a specific perk or whatever for 10, 15 or 20 accepted boxes ? I had thought of a fast-dig perk, but, it would unfairly skew player rankings, so I can't do that. I can't think of anything else right now. give them their own temple on the play area, or theyre own series tele...

Re: [Server] Inside The Box [Puzzles]

[forum feature request] new forum board
it would be nice to have a board under mods for api/libs since those are mods that are meant to be installed only as dependencyes and are, most of the time, only relevant for modders themselves. it would be also easyer to find if someone already came up with a solution for a common problem

Re: Post your mapgen questions here (modding or engine)
huum, this solution seems a bit intensive.. having to keep calling get_node_or_nil until its not nil seems a bit... hacky. ive been thinking about using mod_store to store the mapblocks that have been generated instead... not sure how that would perform if a huge part of the map gets explored though

Re: [mod][mapgen] Ether Lands [ether_lands]
Nice floatlands! I love the surface of the islands. It does have some odd flat spots with no grass and kind of looks like they are ripping a bit on some slopes though but it is better than blobby or almost totally smooth gradients. Might look cool if the crevaces were filled with water. Also I woul...

Re: [Map] Escape The Dungeon [ July/2018 Update ]
thanks, wow i did not expect this thread to be bumped... if you like puzzle maps i recommend the server Inside The Box, you can find many puzzles there and ill probably build stuff there from now on and never update this map againvictor_calculus wrote:It's a very good map though I'm yet to finish it.

Re: Post your mapgen questions here (modding or engine)
is it possible to check if a mapblock exists? when i generate my mapblocks i want to check if a mapblock below it exists, and if it does, update its lighting... when traveling upwards (+y) mapblocks will be lit by sunlight, and generating a new mapblock above it wont cast its shadows

what happens when you try to recycle the buffers but the engine is set to generate maps with more than 1 emerge threads? should i make a buffer per thread or will the c++ threads take turns in calling my on_generated? sofar once said that lua is single-threaded, but isnt it possible for the engine t...

Re: Mobkit - Entity API [mobkit][alpha]
you could drop those zip files and just work on a dev branch, leting people clone the stable master branch, once the dev is stable enough you can merge it, this makes it a lot easyer for people to update the mod with a git pull

a few more suggestions for the game: - a deadly liquid that doesnt emmit light, like acid or something - use texture-align = 'world' for most blocks like marble so that texturess for stairs, slabs and others all connect nicely - custom textures for the slabs and stairs, with bevels on the top side t...

I thought there was a private message system. Where is it? Or did I confuse it with something else? - However, no idea what to do if the block was destroyed by some other means. Maybe drop the torch like a falling node and self-attach it to the ground? Sadly wouldn't work if the ground is a liquid ...

i think its worth pointing out in the instructions that lsqlite3 needs sqlite3, and for those that install it from the repos, they will need to install the devel version that comes with the header file. for me it was libsqlite3-dev. only then i was able to luarocks install lsqlite3

Re: [Server] Inside The Box [Puzzles]
A lot of the newer boxes have very little number of completed players. The lowest is... 5 players! does this counter increase if the same player finishes the box more than once ? sometimes i play my boxes again to see if i can break them in any way after an update or when i think there is an issue....
