I love the one way windows! Nice textures too.

[D00Med]

one way windows is a good idea!

While there is coloured block mod by ten1plus and some other coloured glass mods, i suggest you to make this as xpanes like instead of blocks.

i like those textures too. nice job

[Shara]

Thank you all.

D00Med - I was surprised I couldn't find other one way windows like this when I looked, so it had to be done.

mahmutelmas06 - though I often prefer "thin" windows myself, I won't be changing these from full nodes. The original set of nodes for this mod have been present on some servers for over a year, so that wouldn't be fair. I know there are other mods that add plain stained glass nodes, and so I could have just done the other types, but the plain ones just make sense to me, and are also vital for another mod I'll be posting here soon.

I like this mod.

[Shara]

Hi Fixer - since people seem to want this, I will look at adding it as an optional extra that can be enabled (instead of as a replacement for the current nodes). If I don't get to it today, it might be after the holidays.

EDIT - Coloured glass panes will be a separate mod. Will post a thread for it later today.

One way windows, what a great idea, didn't even think that was possible.

[Shara]

Small update. Portholes now added for the use of any aspiring shipbuilders.

Regular and jungle wood versions are included in the mod, but adding more should be easy for anyone used to editing mods.

[Chibi ghost]

shara you read my mind I'm planning a airship right now

[Jenkins]

Nice mod! I`ll definitely try it today when i have a spare minute

[Sokomine]

Very nice textures. As with doors, decorative windows can improve houses a lot. One-way windows are also a nice idea. Such a nicely colored window here and there in a house...that could be something :-)

[TumeniNodes]

I really like the portholes

[Shara]

Thank you all. I was really surprised I couldn't find any other mods with portholes, but I couldn't... so I had to make them. :)

I think I consider this mod more or less done for content now, but if anyone has any suggestions for things to add, please let me know.

Nice mod, really like the one_way windows.

[TumeniNodes]

portholes which open and close? :P
maybe a j/k..., maybe not

[Chibi ghost]

still haven't got around to building my ship but it might work well with shutters from cottages mod

[Shara]

Puka - thank you!

TumeniNodes - most portholes I saw didn't open. I don't think I want these to either way. It wouldn't really add much, and would feel a bit like making things fiddley for no real reason.

Ghost - please share a screenshot when you're done! I still miss seeing your buildings. :)

[Chibi ghost]

yes I will I'm almost done with my ship finally and there's lots of my building screenshots on this this site promise

[Chibi ghost]

here you go I used the porthole section of this mod it's not much different from the ship I built on red cat

[Shara]

Thanks Ghost - always good to see how my mods are being put to use. :)

[TumeniNodes]

I've seen lots of portholes which open... and I got yelled at once for opening one :D

But the appropriate response in this situation is "eh, I was just kiddin'" : )
I love them just the way they are.

This mod is awesome for decoration!

Thanks. :-)

I looked at the code, but I'm not sure how one-way glass works. Is it simply looking at each face and because the inside is transparent it allows light to pass? The issue I'm seeing is that light from the inside still passes through causing a weird effect at night where, for seemingly no good reason, part of an apparently solid wall is illuminated. I realize that real one-way glass actually allows you to see through if there is more light from behind, but would it be possible to prevent this from happening here?

[Shara]

You can only decide if light passes through a node or not; there is no way to have one way movement of light. This means removing the ability for light to travel from inside a hidden room would also prevent light from moving into it from outside.
