[Mod] Mailbox! [4.0] [mailbox] - Updated to version 4 {Send Ability}

[Aqua]

Hi everyone this is my mailbox mod! It adds a mailbox that can only be accessed by the placer but people can put in any stuff they wish but they can't take it out. Now you can access your items from any of your master mailboxes. Only you can see and take your own items. Everybody has their own unique code so they can only see their own. The master mailbox has a 4x4 space for putting stuff in and also produces a bit of light! I thought of the idea then realized that someone had already requested it: Click Here

Very nice! Now u just need to be able to access your mail from any mailbox.

Hint .. Use a detached inventory.

[Aqua]

What do you mean?

[tkerwel]

i guess he want a connection to yahoo-mail or google mail in the game

[tinoesroho]

No, no. What he wants is the mailbox to check for the puncher's name, then load the puncher's mail into inventory, a one-box-serves all solution.

[cornernote]

No, no. What he wants is the mailbox to check for the puncher's name, then load the puncher's mail into inventory, a one-box-serves all solution.

Yes. Any player can goto any mailbox to check their mail. I can also send to any player from any mailbox.

[Aqua]

do u have any idea how i can code that?

[tinoesroho]

I have a hunch the solution is somehow connected to using a textfile as a DB to store info, although he'll probably point towards the armor mod, which uses a detached inventory.

[cornernote]

there is no 2 minute solution... have a look at other mods that use detached inventories, eg: creative inventory and craft guide. bags is not a great example because the inventory is only detached so that i can prevent you putting a non-bag into the bag slot. Armor is the same. However both bags and armor show you how to use the players inventory (in a slot they cannot see) to store a copy of what is in the detached inventory. (the detached inventory does not save when the server reboots)

[Aqua]

So like a master mailbox where u can access all mail? Can a moderator move this to mod releases

[cornernote]

i'll do you a deal...

if you make a mailbox node that allows players to access their mail from any mailbox, i'll make an auction house node that delivers the winnings to the mailbox.

[cornernote]

also, move requests have to go here so that a moderator sees it - http://minetest.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=2828

i'm still working on it.....i dont know the best way to do it

[kaeza]

This looks great.
Can you send them a letter? That would be awesome.

[RealBadAngel]

real world mails would be just stupid
but what about something like this:
from: RealBadAngel@europe.minetest.org:30000
to:NakedFury@minetest.org:30000
Subject:trade
Hey want to trade some diamonds for mithril? Ratio 1:5, if yes send some as the attachement to the reply.

[Aqua]

I think it's possible..….....but I have no idea where to start

[cornernote]

RBA, you mean use a mail client to send that message ?

[Chinchow]

Aqua sorry your textures not done I only have 2 hours a day recently but would you mind if I did a version similar to default chest for now and then make a new one?

[Chinchow]
