Re: Mob/NPC API

We should probably start by making a list of existing mods... you might find this list useful: http://wiki.minetest.net/Mobs Games that include mobs are not listed yet though. Thanks, that's helpful. I started writing a mob mod could YAMM, it was heavily modular, very nice code structure. Different...

Re: Mob/NPC API

We should probably start by making a list of existing mods and figuring out what features they have. I think most are based on PilzAdam's mod, because they all contain the same basic code. Here are the ones I've found: https://github.com/stujones11/minetest-npcf/ https://github.com/sapier/animals_mo...

Mob/NPC API

There are various mob/NPC frameworks, all do similar things, all do them a bit differently. I'd like to add some DwarfFortress-like features to the game, but for that I'd first need a functional, solid and extensible mob/NPC API.

I am a realist and will only take goals that I have a chance of achieving. MMORPG cannot be done by one or two developers. While I did take MMORPGs as example, it's not what I have in mind. And yeah, not a good idea to get ahead of yourself. As far as I can see, the only part of my suggestions that...

CIB, i don't understand everything you wrote, but i understand you talk about some stuffs that could *oblige* players to play together. I'm not sure you said that, but i think it could be a great idea (like seeking rare materials, creating boats together, etc). Not at all. Working together would be...

Okay, that's awesome, why did noone tell me about this?!
3) Yeah, that's a problem - but it's Dwarf Fortress, you build

WARNING: A very long post is following. I wanted to give my idea some credibility, so I ended up writing a bit more than expected. :) Hey there. Just today, I was playing minecraft for the first time in quite a while. When I played, I noticed how dynamic it was, and how little is done with that. So ...
