Re: [Modpack] Mobsplus and Edited Areas [mobsplusareas-mp]

Ah, I believe that's because this is a modpack, not a single mod. To get it to work, just stick an empty file in the folder titled "modpack.txt".

I'll try to find time to update the repo to fix the problem, but it may be a while.

Re: [game] Apocalypse Survival [1.1]

As far as moving progression off ABMs goes, it is no simple task, and not to be taken on light-heartedly. However, should you choose to do so, you probably should investigate this: http://dev.minetest.net/minetest.register_globalstep Have a global apocalypse.time_elapsed, and add d_time to it every ...

Re: [mod] Underground Realms [0.8] [caverealms]

Although I still haven't finished the major new version of CaveRealms yet, a visit to OldCoder's MoonTest server (which actually runs the mod! :D ), I found out two important things: 1. CaveRealms was incompatible with Moontest, and 2. CaveRealms had huge potential for griefing in creative mode. So,...

Re: Gun Gale Online[GGO]Mod[WIP]

While I like the idea of a GGO mod, I must ask: how far along are you? Do you have any screenshots or code to show so far? Also, you might consider making it a subgame rather than a mod, since I'm sure you'll have to outsource for other mods like kaeza's firearms mod. Still, where do enchantments an...

Re: Modder feedback needed: MT Schematic (.mts) file paths

Indeed, I have had no problems with the way things are set up, and in most cases they are loaded relative to the modpath anyway, since most lua files tend to be in the top directory of the mod's folder. Of course, it could be a problem for some people if they don't follow the usual mod structure con...

Do you have mobs added to the dependencies.txt? That often causes trouble for mods that reference others, and it's easy to miss.

Re: Biome API changes, world maintainers please read

Thanks, paramat. I was mainly wondering for the purposes of determining whether to switch SkyLands to engine-based heat/humidity, but the 2D nature makes me vote "no."

Re: Biome API changes, world maintainers please read

At the risk of being slightly off-topic, I have two questions slightly related to the biome system. 1. Are the heat and humidity noises 2D or 3D? 2. Do minetest.get_heat() and minetest.get_humidity() work again, and if so, why does the dev wiki still say they were removed? Regarding the biome change...

Re: [Mod] Mount Meru, 2 km tower/mountain [0.3.0] [meru]

Your best chance would be to split it up into multiple schematics, and piece them all back together. And no, you can't jump straight from the game to the hard drive. It always has to assemble all the data into the RAM, then convert it to the proper format for schematics... :/

Re: Favorite mod or subgame or feature?

I tend to like highly technical mods that let you make automated systems, so I would definitely recommend Pipeworks, Technic, and Mesecons, but only try them after you're familiar with the core game. You really need to read up on the documentation for them to be much use without frustration. I also ...
