[Mod] More Blocks [moreblocks]

[deivan]

Is a very nice idea this one of the the memory of the orientation of the last block. I unpowered a sonic screw driver to put 6 quarter wood in the correct positions... :-/

Imagine this scenario, I have a bridget only using quarter wood blocks (slab_wood_quarter) without nothing to use as reference , only the last deployed node in the correct position, like a quarter in the upper area of the node. The screwdrive rotate many times to the wrong direction before to the correct one. :-/

[Jouster27]

My replacer mod now stores and sets the rotation of nodes as well. I think this will help a lot with building e.g. roofs or other complex constructions because it will be sufficient to rotate one node into the right direction and "copy" that rotation to all other nodes that ought to be the same.

The replacer mod has some cool features but it seems to break the automatic floor-ceiling rotation of Moreblocks. I tried it but now I can't get ceiling slabs, especially since the screwdriver was removed. I tried adding the screwdriver back in but found it crashes the game on certain rotations (ceiling slab z-axis). I'd like to use it but I don't want to give-up the upside-down tiles.

[VanessaE]

To get a ceiling slab, you just place a regular one on a ceiling :-)

[deivan]

I am working in a alternative version of the screwdriver to do a direct function, like rotate X only, with configuration in a form.

[Inocudom]

Some of the nodes in moreblocks do not have any support from stairsplus (nor do the default game nodes desert stone brick, sandstone brick, and coal block.) Will these nodes be supported by stairsplus in the future?

Your using an out of date build.

Jordach is incorrect - this happens on my server also, which is most definitely up-to-date. Just had it happen this morning - same error, same file and line number.

Well last time I checked, it was! This might be an engine issue, which is more likely than fudgey Lua.

[shaneroach]

It seems when I add moreblocks and then try to make slabs or stairs in the old style way, they create invisible nothings with a number on the bottom right of the craft square.

Am I going to need to add a screen shot to make this plain? It has not proven to be a fatal issue so far. Just would like to see it fixed and perhaps learn a little something in the process.

4.6 stable is the Minetest version. Mods as follows.

Let me know if there's anything else you need from me?

[VanessaE]

This is because the old recipes are no longer valid - to make a stair, slab, etc. use the circular saw.

I would have thought that would merely make it where there was no recipe at all? Instead of creating invisible unknown blocks that do not even create the unknown item block?

But yeah, I totally blanked on the fact I don't really need the old recipe anymore... Speaking of which... Is there a summary of the recipes for these mods? Or do I need the recipe mod for that? :-D

If I add moreblocks (github HEAD e48d33808822e2a3cb7feb39450a6d6bc099afb6) to my game "famish" it crashes minetest:

What's your graphics card and driver?

Code: Select all

lspci | grep VGA

will tell you the graphics card.

[VanessaE]

shane: actually there's no clear way to entirely delete a recipe, so it's been changed to just result in a "nothing" object.

Personally, I think it should be changed to just return the objects you put into the grid. E.g. six stone in the old stair pattern should just give back 6 stone.

Oh that's interesting. Ok, thanks. Helps me understand.

Hmm, weird, I don't get that issue and I also have a NVIDIA card and proprietary driver. It seems to be graphics-related (see the GL_OUT_OF_MEMORY).

Are you using latest Git or 0.4.6?

[addi]

hi,

1. would you re adding the craft rezips for the stairs and slaps again, please?
not to the microblocks, only for stairs and slaps.

2. something with the wood slaps/panels is now wrong after a update to the "less node version"
Before the update:

after the update:



3. the "replace unknown blocks after update with a correct rotated version of the new one" of some microblocks dose not work correctly

before:


after:




it would be good if you can do that.
thanks
addi

don't trust the moreblocks mod...

+1 :-P

[LionsDen]

I found an error on line 181 of the crafting.lua in the more blocks mod. To make iron stone bricks, you combine default:steel_ingot with default:stone_brick and there is no default:stone_brick. I think you wanted default:stonebrick instead.

Fixed, thanks for reporting.

When I try to craft a whole bunch of stairs out of moreblocks blocks, eg Circle Stone Brick, Stone Tile, Cactus Checker, Iron Stone... they all give me unknown objects without a texture.
Or is that just supposed to be like that, due to the circular saw? (which works fine) It's just that if I accidentally craft an unknown object, I can't undo that, and it's just annoying.

You have to make the stairs and slabs with the circular saw.

Intended, you are supposed to use the circular saw.
