What if the slimes were attracted to something besides just players, say, mese?
then we could build slime traps (a puddle of water with mese in the middle) to keep the population in check.
they'd also make good 'mese sniffers' that way. :D

aximx, this is the wrong thread to be mentioning that. :-) In current git, swords have a different craft recipe than either of the common screwdrivers: Moreblocks Default Sword Screwdriver Screwdriver - S - - - - - - - - S - s S S s S - - s - - - - - - - (where lower 's' is a stick and capital 'S' ...

I just noticed when i tried to make a steel sword, that the screwdriver overrides the steel sword's recipe.
you might want to change the recipe..

I discovered that the shadows problem goes away when smooth lighting is checked. good enough for me

interesting ideas, I'll have to play around with this

Code: Select all

visual = "upright_sprite",

instead of

Code: Select all

visual = "sprite",

well, i still have the same image(all 6 faces smushed in to one image), but it's not self aligning to my view angle anymore.
how many faces does an upright sprite support? can it have 6 sides?

i tried

Code: Select all

some_entity.on_activate = function(self, staticdata)
    self.object:setsprite({x=0,y=0}, 1, 1, true)
end

but no luck..

I can't seem to get a sprite image to display like i want (i want it to display the way 2d mobs do in sapiers animals mod) i have: entity={ physical = false, timer=0, physical = true, visual = "sprite", visual_size = {x=4,y=4}, textures = {"image.png^[makealpha:128,0,0^[makealpha:128,128,0"}, sprite...

it's already set that way. strange...
maybe i should reload the mod (remove it, run the game, and reinstall it) to see if that changes anything.
is there anybody else who's installed this and noticed this 'shadow'?

what's your nodebox definitions for the door open/closed?

take a look at my main post i changed the pics.
in the first picture you can see how the anit-grav field casts a shadow?
what causes that?
anybody know how to get rid of that?

now with latest minetest build liquid_finite = true liquid_relax = 0 liquid_fast_flood = 0 water/lava can be replaced with default "air" in this mod, and sponge will destroy all water around are you talking about the current dev, or stable release? I can update this mod if it'll still work in the s...

Hey guys, the development is finished!!!

I just need some people to test it to make sure the bugs are worked out.

let me know what you think :)

it's only halfway done, but i figured i'd share it anyway.
i posted an updated version in my first post. check it out!

got it. i call:

Code: Select all

noise = minetest.sound_play("grav_gen",{pos = pos, gain = 0.5, loop = true, max_hear_distance = 15})

to start the sound, and then i call

Code: Select all

minetest.sound_stop(noise)

to stop it.
i'm using a mono channel ogg file, btw..
thanks for the input guys, it's working!

anybody know is the abm interval setting set in seconds, or can it be variable?
i could make my sound life play at a pos (non looped) and have the sound length so it ends just when the abm starts it again...

well, the noise.object is not the player, that'd be a funny conundrum though. lol my ogg file wasn't mono, but converting it to mono didn't change anything.. :P i just found out though, it has something to do with it being played in association with an object. if i play the sound at a position (with...

ok, the title says it all. I've tried

Code: Select all

minetest.sound_play("grav_gen",{object = noise.object, gain = 0.3, max_hear_distance = 1, loop = true})

and it plays the sound. but i can hear it no matter where i go!
what's the proper way to do this? anybody know?
thanks in advance.

ok, I've made a texture I like for the field: http://www.zimg.eu/i/3851431151 this thing is like 4 MB in size when it's a .PNG though lol. it crashes the game after the game loads the new texture, but when you open the game again everything is fine. maybe it should be a bit smaller...? so, if i coul...

guys this is what i was thinking as far as animation: use this picture: http://www.zimg.eu/i/999970211 and change the animation length to "length=0.5" the animation should probably be more fluid, i only made it 4 frames. by the way, does anybody know how to attach a looped track to a node? I haven't...

thanks for including the chimney code.
Um, i should mention, you don't include a smoke texture in your current mod download...
might want to fix that :)

He's got it. Replace:
tiles ={"chimney.png", "chimney.png", "chimney_side.png"},
with that, and you're good to go.

BZab wrote:Nice, but will cobble texture change on my texture pack's texture? :D

not the way it's set up currently. the chimney uses custom images. it can be changed though :)

Hey I really like this mod! I just thought of something to make it better: A working chimney for the fireplace! http://www.zimg.eu/i/2562539721 It's got animated smoke, and the chimney is hollow. You can even fall down inside it, if you get yourself aligned perfectly. http://www.zimg.eu/i/2596490195...

ok, how do i attach the sound to the generator node? In papyrus_bed mod I've done this that way: minetest.sound_play("papyrus_bed_snoring",{"papyrus_bed:bed", gain = 0.9, max_hear_distance = 10,}) so I suppose this will be correct: minetest.sound_play("antigravitational_elevator",{"elevator:grav_su...
