I have code for that almost ready but it still needs a few bugs fixed.

The answer is: You can't.

I've put up we_env, which includes a command to smoothen terrain here: https://github.com/sfan5/we_env

Wow, this looks great!

Is there a possibility to use the smooth command using the WorldEdit Wand?

Great enhancement, I really love it ... and you, too ;-)

But, can I already use them with 0.4.16? I tried the newest download from github and it does not work -> errors

(I assume you mean the brush)

While //smooth really works better on bigger areas at once, I have implemented to the possibility of smoothing using a brush.

A Minetest build from at least 7th July is required, for example this one (which is 0.4.16-b20d01a).

One thing I hate about this modpack is that chests are unusable after placing the .mts file.

This is obviously brilliant, one of the classics.

I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to this, but is it possible to make a torus? If so, I think this shape should be added :P.

If i have understood, there is no possibility to add an undo command ? How to do a cancellation after a manipulation error then ? This is a big problem.

Also, is there a possibility to stock all shematics in directory mod rather than in maps directories ?
I need to share my shematics with severals maps, and this is a problem too with maps deletions, if by example, i forget than one map contains schems.

I think you will must make a basic FAQ for your génial mod =)

There is a pair of FAQ's built in. Go to the directory and look at the Tutorial and the Chat Commands. The writer of this wonderful mod is not an employee. There is no 'must' when we are enjoying the fruits of Sfan5's freely given labor.

If you really wish to understand this mod, the LUA is, for the most part, readable. I will admit the worldedit code can jump to advanced quickly and leave one lost in the numbers, but a lot of the functionality can be read and understood by examining the code. Never fear to look behind the curtain, often a more meek and less frightening wizard is hiding there.

I don't want learn lua, i hate this senseless language, and i 'm not a coder, i don't want learn to code, this forum is only reserved for the mods dev ? Ok, it's an elitist forum then, not for the lambda players.

Sorry, i used must by error, the sense of my words was not to give an order, but a suggestion, i'm really confused...

It was my last message on this forum, i don't want to have some problems with anyone because of my language mistakes.
And sorry again.

No problem, this is not really an elitist forum, they haven't thrown me off and that is pretty good proof. It is instead a group that has fun giving what they can spare to give in their free time. There is constant change here. Slow at times but constant. That does mean work to keep up with what is going on. Sometimes things can seem like they are complex or far from responsive. The issue I see is that the progress tends to run faster than the documentation and it is a lot of work to keep the documentation up to date and easy to understand. The moment everything is up to date everything changes. Worldedit, is complex in ways but some of what it does will always be that way. When objects are created centered around a point, it takes math to position them sometimes.

Worldedit, by the way is one of the better documented mods. If you want to drive yourself spare, try building a nuclear power plant from scratch using the technic mod without begging for help.

I suppose we do have a few elitist tendencies. A lot of us hate half cut down trees and single block diameter vertical towers.

Unfortunately, this forum *is* what you would call an elitist forum. :(

Nope

There is a documentation problem with most mods. However, suggesting that someone learning Lua is not elitist. It's elitist if they only allowed Lua knowers in this forum, or abused those that don't know. I'm not really sure why this word was thrown around.


You shouldn't need to learn Lua to know how to use any mods however. Worldedit is actually quite documented - I've never had to read wordedit's code to use it, just the readme and wiki. It's fair enough to overlook this resources though, and it's good to post in any mods about documentation issues.

Sadly, I think I discovered the size limitation at ~853MB before crashing out with a lua error. I guess I will have to save some mega builds in smaller chunks.

If it's not already possible, could a line draw feature be added? Currently, straight lines can only be drawn on the x or z axis, but they cannot be drawn with any angle. Having the ability to draw a simple line or configurable width between the two pos markers would be a huge benefit to making roads and tracks.

And THANKS for this AWESOME mod!

a extreme usefull mod you created here!

But i would have 3 suggestions for implementation:

1) possibility of „copy the marked area“ instead of define acis and number nodes
2) a „Paste“-command would be perfekt
3) the „//regen“ command of the MC-Version of WorldEdit

cause i‘am not able to program i have the hope you can and would mind to add this ;-)

@daii

1) & 2) may be similar enough for you to just use //save <name> and //load <name>.

3) I could be wrong but I believe //deleteblocks does this by invoking map generation again.

Ok thx, i/we will try this and i‘ll edit mi Post later for the results ;-)

Edit: //deleteblocks works as replacement for //regen :-) it needs some more attention in cause of that all chunks in the marked area are regenerated, but it works as wanted;-)

Enable the whole modpack
I'm running 0.4.16 and did this, but it doesn't work: the mod doesn't stay enabled.

EG. select a world, configure, enable worldedit-modpack (it turns green), save,
configure again --> worldedit is no longer enabled.
Activating other mods works just fine.

And in world.mt, the worldedit-entries show up like

Code: Select all

load_mod_worldedit = nil
load_mod_worldedit_commands = nil
...

debug.txt has no messages about worldedit

I also changed the directory-name in the mods-folder & tried again, same result.

What now?
