Minetest Forums

Well, I launched 20 rockets and the game is slowing down... More and more, I stop him before crash. I have messages about error loading textures and a debug file with 7MB. Very bad. Is easy to reproduce this problem. Start a new game give to yourself the rocket launcher and rockets, chose a target and make 20 shots in the same area. You see the same problem, I think.

The debug is full of this type of lines...

I think it's because the explosion_smoke is an entity. I guess at a certain point they will be deleted or slow down your system, because it's trying to keep record of all the data about the entities (smoke) and probably busy creating and removing them. As far as I know the only thing that helps is not shooting that much.

I love if the rocket convert items in small versions, like many rocks, in the actual method all is vanished. :-o

The "explosion" code is based off PilzAdam's TNT mod. I removed that feature due to the (sheer ^ 2) amount of objects which would be generated by people shooting a sheer amount of rockets.

This mod was initially intended for "disposable", quick match worlds; you create a world, a few players join for a match, someone gets bored from being a 1337 fragger, the other users get bored of being fragged, the server shuts down, the world is deleted, and the cycle is repeated.

BTW, DO NOT SHOOT *ANY* WEAPON REPEATEDLY! Due to bugs(?) in the entity handling in the engine, the game may crash, lag or do other weird things when there are tons of entities.

Im gonna use this for my crossfire map in half life for minetest

Hey, Kaeza I made a minigun now all it needs is auto fire when hold down, mouse 1!

And I am working on, more you see soon. oh and I added it ammo to for it, and you are free to use it long as you get it working like a minigun

Done with the minigun.

Right now working now it own sound and, add more weapons hey can you, maybe I don't know...Add mine as a version? yours is the official one and mine the unofficial one!

Care to explain why?
Follow the instructions on this topic, but instead of creating a new topic post the error here.
BTW: Did you rename the folder to just "firearms" ?

um no ill go do that now thanks

Herp Derp Hurr Durr!
Big Update!

- Now adds a (minimalist) HUD showing ammo in clip and in inventory.
- Support for different crosshairs for every weapon.
- Bullets now travel at the speed of light! No more ugly entities!

More to come soon

Edit: Requires the latest engine from git.

You need a newer version of MT. The stuff that is needed was added yesterday.

Now we need a zombies mod...

Left 4 Minetest

Small update!
- Added reloading and "empty" sounds.

No entities, very nice! Except for rockets and grenades(which i agree should be visible). But that way you can play without lagy entities. BIG THUMBS UP.

Now we need FPS modes items that spawn ammo and weapons. Or you could craft while bullets are flying over your head.

Can't wait to have a PVP with snipers.

Hmm... I think I will split the mod into a modpack.
One mod will provide the base library (firearmslib.lua, explosion.lua, kutils.lua), another one will provide guns (pistol, shotgun, rifle, etc), another one for destructive weapons (launchers, so they can be easily removed if desired), and another one for item spawners.

Shift+Click (or whatever key you assigned to 'Sneak'+Click)

Ah thanks for the info! I will look into that later.
