Ok, here goes. I have a sword. When I right click while holding the sword it will replace the sword with another item, lets call this item sword_blocking. I've got this bit working. Now, what I want, is a function that makes the sword_blocking item get replaced with an item of my choice. So like thi...

Using lua or something, I would like to replace an item in the inventory(the currently held item) with another item, without making it dip down and come back up. Example: https://forum.minetest.net/download/file.php?mode=view&id=18803&sid=00f672f65ac08d6afb86f7177c2252ba I just want the item...

Yeah, I will just leave it as it is. Hopefully when the devs make knockback an official thing it will be less jerky.

Already tried that and it has barely any effect at all. If I set it to 0 it makes the player go under the ground by a block.

Doesn't work.

I’m trying to make a better pvp mod. Does the engine allow for holding rightclick while holding an item? I won’t be rightclicking a block, just the air and holding it down to “block” with the sword. How would I do that? Also, it would need to apply some sort of temporary armor while holding, to redu...

setting dir.y to 0 has no effect. Also, it is set to 0 by default when you get the mod.

A few test players were harmed a couple hundred times during the making of this mod.....
Me and my brother tested this and I can confirm this to be true

Neat!

use the clone as zip file to get it.

It is a mesecon trap. You step on the pressure plate and pistons move a block down and under, so puliing it out of sight and putting it back once you step off the plate.

How could I make the inventory item slots smaller? I don’t know how.

The hand texture.... omg..... I laughed so hard.. why would you do this to me

If it is a modpack with multiple mods inside make sure there is a modpack.txt file. If this is the case you will usually get
ERROR[Main]: cannot open preview:initlua: No such file or directory.

I like the tnt idea. We really need good knockback in minetest.
uhh forum? are you ok?

I like the tnt idea. We really need good knockback in minetest.

make it so the mesecon doorbell is its own mod, contained inside the main mod as a modpack. Then, set the mesecons mod as a dependency in the mesecon doorbell.

your file folder will be like:
doorbellsmod---
doorbell1
doorbell2
meseconbell
modpack.txt

Ok :(

I've heard there is a now function called set_rotation for entities and such. Does this mean we will finally get mob hitboxes that actually fit the mob because now the slection box/hitbox does not have to be a box because it can rotate?

sweeeeeeet

Does the map work even though it isn’t connecting to the mod? Your trying to use the bridge mod meaning the mod connects to the mapserver but the mapserver will still work (without showing players) even without the mod. Also make sure the mapserver is running. Also, I did have trouble with my antivi...

MinionToby you might read this (from the docs) The mod communicates via http with the mapserver. You need to configure the url and the secretkey in your minetest.conf Install the mapserver mod in your minetest instance Copy the secretkey from your mapserver.json (this is an autogenerated key) Enable...

I got the same error when I tried this for the first time. I’ll get back to you when I remember how I fixed it

Try adding the mapserver md to your server then make sure it’s in active mod and not passive.

I don’t know what any of this means but If it means sprinting in Minetest then I like it
