Hello Is it possible to make the collision-box rotate with the vehicle-entity while riding it? I think about a rectangular collision-box, that fit´s to a vehicle, that is longer than width. And is it possible to make a collision-box for entity out of multiple boxes? I have got balloons and airships,...

Re: How do i use my own player-character on multiplayer-serv

I thaught, it may nice, if there is a server, where all players can come as their own custom characters. I think, it´s boring, if all players look the same.

Hello In my own single player world of the minetest-game i actually use a special selfmade player-character, and i added the ability to generate light at character-position by modifying the api.lua in the character_api-mod-folder (because my character has a glowing antenna on the head).

Re: Is there any way, entities or the player emmit own light

i want to integrate the light directly to a specific player-character, that i´m creating, not as a wielded item.
It should be a minetest-blocky-version of the character, i told about in the start-post.

Is there any way, entities or the player emmit own light?

As i played the Rovio-Game "Fruit-Nibblers".
The main-character there is Coral, an Anglerfish with a light-antenna on the head.

So i got an idea:
How about making the player or entities generate their own light.
this maybe great for cave-exploring.

Is there any way to realize this?

You're using outdated code. Please update signs_lib , and get basic_signs while you're at it (you'll need it, as most of the signs have been moved to that mod). As for the colors, it may be possible to use just one white color block, with appropriate [colorize commands. I may give that a try some t...
