Sounds like a hoot- I'd love to play it on my LAN server.

To see the creepers come up behind you. Or to admire your skin of awesomeness. That's all I can think of. If we could engine-code per game mode whether 3rd person was enabled by default, toggleable, or blocked would be awesome.

Activate in the GUI? Um, I have no idea what the issue is- and since the server doesn't appear to be starting, we're not going to get any logs. Khan-sider (sorry, Consider) grabbing the source and Khan-piling (sorry, compiling. I have to stop the wordplay).

First rule of WorldEdit: Type the modname:nodename. Second rule of WorldEdit: If it didn't work, you screwed up. Third rule of WorldEdit: Check the source code of the mod you're invoking.

A bones node will be added to the place your were dead, with your inventory in it. You should go back there, and other player cannot take your inventory from the node within a short time of your death. If you do not want it, you should remove the bones mod. ... I've played with the bones mod since ...

Two reasons: 1) Devs do what devs want. Devs haven't wanted it. 2) First Person Adventure games are somewhat rare. ... this reminds me of the time somebody asked for "First person view" in 0 AD. Yeah, it can be done- just attach the camera to the selected entity- but it won't be done, beca...

Uh, hey! Like Josh said, if you're playing online, you probably should request interact privs on their topics- although there are freebuild servers you can choose from, as well (uplink.io, for one). Also, as Josh said, you should spend a bit of time in singleplayer to get a feel for how the game wor...

... I should write a script that crawls forums and automatically downloads files- that way I can reupload stuff that is now lost.

... it should be possible to change sethome from parsing a chat command to parsing when a player dies- and then respawn where the player had typed /sethome.

... it's annoying because it isn't consistent. That's why it should be removed. Hail to the original days of Minetest 0.4!

I see what you did there. Okay, I'm officially changing my position on the Lua and mobs- it doesn't impact performance that badly- at least in singleplayer. The problem _now_ is building something unique that adds to the Minetest experience and fits thematically- using mobf or a hybrid of mobf and s...

Awesome build, bro.

... Install the beds, and then they can set it by sleeping in one. Or the bookmarks mod- just use that search function up at the top.

Wow, that looks incredible! Did you pull it off by attaching all the nodes to a "core", and then move each relative to the core? What about passengers- do people who hop on get pushed off if they don't move?

tinoesroho

Nice!

Hey, bashibazooks: the 3D Armor modpack by stu has what you're looking for. It's called wieldview. Poking around first can help a bit- but then again, the crowd's smart enough to know what you ask for. So, *******s, here you go. It can be laggy (somewhat) on multiplayer servers, though metrics haven...

Meh. The C++ mobs weren't very modder friendly, and celeron's promised Mobs API has been lost somewhere between electrical schooling and chatting up the IRC channel. And putting a mod in by default would simply be annoying; mobs lag a lot thanks to the design of the Lua API (which wasn't designed fo...

tinoesroho

Do. What the F*#$ you want to do. Isn't that the point of open source?

tinoesroho

The point is, people will dislike the game if there are mobs.

I know I, for one, patched out generating of the C++ mobs back in the 0.3.1-0.4dev days. Mobs, by default, detract from the beauty and wonder of the game.

Code: Select all

minetest.register_on_respawnplayer(function(player)
    player:setpos({x=0.0, y=(surface coordinate), z=0.0})
    return true
end)

minetest.register_on_newplayer(function(player)
    player:setpos({x=0.0, y=(surface coordinate), z=0.0})
    return true
end)

Question was asked in this topic. Evergreen has the solution posted.

I don't do much- I let the game speak for itself. I've modded mine to a crazy degree- the illusion of minecraft lasts right up until a mob comes around the corner and I pull out the Peacemaker. Back in the old days, before I'd gotten into remaking it, I used to just say "On steroids."
