Need chickens, cows, sheep. Be cool if chickens laid eggs in nests that were crafted. Also I'd say check into the rat thing since the way rats move would look a little better lol.

EDIT: Also right clicking crashes minetest

They look a bit small, although you'll probably change that later anyway.

Yes I know :-)
I haven't found a way to increase the sprite of an entity. If anyone knows how to do this please tell me ;-)

@RAPHAEL sorry it took me so long to answer your comment on rats, but rats are moving using original none lua mod code in minetest. Can't use it's movement code. But I think the new movement code is much better than the one you tried in first proof of concept code.

Great mod! Is it possible to make them look in the same direction they are moving to?

Already thought about it, but for I know at the moment the orientation of the sprite is client dependent if this is true I don't have any chance of fixing it on server.

Of course there always is a chance I missed it, as you can see with sprite size parameter.

EDIT1:
If my Patch for doors mod makes it into minetest I would have the possibility to create 3d animals consisting of mutliple linked entities (as done in doors mod). In this case the orientation wouldn't be a problem anymore

I've tried to create 3d animals (with my patch applied) an partly succeeded.

Even with my patch there would still be some problems:

-orientation wouldn't be that easy, as you can't do a translation to the animal you would need to have an animal "model" for each orientation. Probably having 8 ones would be fair enough for a first try

-there are some rendering glitches with entity blocks within the same map node block ... not quite sure if it's a general problem. Probably there's just something not completly correct within my disorted cubes patch (was my first try to write code for irrlicht)

Image

This is one of the better views of the models. As you can see on the left the feet blocks are visible even they should be hidden by body block ... the same strange behaviour is shown for head block. Viewing from most directions you do at least partly see throug the animal

EDIT1:
Just need to stress out those animals in the screenshot can't do anything by now but standing there. I would have to add some code to make sure all entities that are one animal stay together and can be handled at once.

@jordan4ibanez would prefer irc to installing a vpn program.

The problem with orientation is that there is nothing for a set of entities. You would have to translate the entities edges to rotate the model. But you can't modify an entity in runtime.

Using those 8 directions (choosing the one next to the current direction) would mean removing a set of entities and adding the other one. I know not really a straight solution but feasable without major changes atm

Added support for animals fighting back if a player attacks them.

Current attack pattern:

-animal will remember who attacked it and fight back
-player has random chance attack is beeing stopped
-player can run away, animal stops attacking if out of reach


Missing features:
-animal starting attack on its own
-animal following player while attacking
