[Mod] BobBlocks [git] [bobblocks]

[RabbiBob]

You need to have a version of mesecons installed and you need to change the depends.txt file in order for it to work as described in the first post. I'm going to assume you're starting out with Minetest and that once you install mesecons, you'll have the 'jeija' version. Open bobblocks\depends.txt and make sure it looks like this:

Code: Select all

default
jeija

then save it.

You need the Mesecons mod with this.

i have it , i downloaded it from the link , i took v0.9
the exctract it in my mod folder , then i re-downloaded this mod , exctract my mod folder and change the file depend.txt
but i have the same message

[RabbiBob]

i have it , i downloaded it from the link , i took v0.9

Change 'jeija' to 'mesecons' then.

• Dependencies: Mesecons
  • Edit depends.txt as follows: For Mesecons v0.0.5 add "jeija" / For GitHub (or > v0.5) add "mesecons"

    },

Cool! Thanks :-)

Could you update this mod to allow for the recently-added slab and stair forms also?

[RabbiBob]

Will look into it this upcoming weekend. Just getting back from vacation today and back to work tomorrow.

[RabbiBob]

I'm going to wait until it flows into the next release rather than the github version.

It would be nice if default mods could be called from other mods without tripping the namespace restriction. If this were possible, it would extremely simple to call stair mod registration function to create new custom nodes without the need to essentially copy the code for each custom mod (though that example has customization on the original code, but you get the idea). I understand why the namespace restriction is in place, however default mods could be exempt as they are included and hence approved.

Example (ignore the wood, I was testing the concept).

boblocks/stairs.lua

Code: Select all

stairs.register_stair_and_slab("redblock", "default:wood",
		{snappy=2,choppy=2,oddly_breakable_by_hand=2},
		{"default_wood.png"},
		"Redblock stair",
		"Redblock slab")

I think it would also count towards efficiency as eventually every mod is going to be adding step support resulting in Minetest needing to read in that core code for each mod as a unique function when it could be a singular function.

I may pop this thought over into Suggestions.

[VanessaE]

Also, you may be interested in my Unified Dyes mod. It has a total of 89 colors (including black, white, and three greys), and comes with a BASH script to help you generate all of the colored texture files. There's also a modding template along with it that will help greatly in generating the actual nodes and crafting recipes.

I figure it might be useful to you - I'm trying to get everyone to lean towards this mod to get their colorants from, for however many colors they want to use in their mod. It's so that everyone doesn't have to re-invent the wheel and possibly cause recipe conflicts from one mod to another.

I'll have to look into this issue with the mesecons dependency. Just noticed the post while searching.

[RabbiBob]

Latest mesecons update breaks BobBlocks functionality and I'm looking at how to correct my code to compensate.

In the meantime, edit blocks.lua and remove everything (all the way to the end of the file) below the following lines:

Code: Select all

-- MESECON
-- Add jeija to bobblocks\default.txt and paste the below in at the bottom of bobblocks\blocks.lua

This will break any power dependency and switch mechanism to activate BobBlocks, however it well allow the mod to load.

For my reference: http://mesecons.net/developers.php & check pipeworks for homedecor soft checking.

Update:

Figured it out, just need to code it all in.

Examples:

Code: Select all

    mesecons = {conductor={
            state = mesecon.state.on,
            offstate = "bobblocks:redblock_off"
        }}

Code: Select all

    mesecons = {conductor={
            state = mesecon.state.off,
            onstate = "bobblocks:redblock"
        }}

[RabbiBob]

Blocks have been implemented as conductors with the latest Mesecons and I'll do poles later this week when I have a moment. If you need to fix your install right now, here is the pastebin drop:

http://pastebin.com/qw3fvxmC

Back up your original blocks.lua just in case there are any issues.

[RabbiBob]

Updated mod with the License To Kill version.

0.0.7

• Corrected for latest Mesecons version
• All blocks and poles are now Mesecon conductors
• Removed Jeija support (not backwards compatible)
• Added conductor property to health block
• Added VanessaE's colors.txt to lead post

[Inocudom]

I am glad to see that this mod is still being supported.

[VanessaE]

Bob, could you consider removing the 'off' variants of the poles and blocks from the creative inventory? Seems a little redundant to have them in there. (add "not_in_creative_inventory=1" to the groups field for those objects).

[RabbiBob]

0.0.8

• BobBlocks has a birthday! (3/13/12)
• Added "not_in_creative_inventory=1" to all off-state light blocks & sprung traps per suggestion
• Corrected drop type issues (major trap dropped minor trap, extra orange pole)
• Corrected internal version documentation issue
• Added GitHub repo. We'll see how that goes...

[VanessaE]

Sweet, thanks!
