Minetest Forums

UPDATE: The download link has been changed to sdzens version. That is all for now.

ANOTHER EDIT: If you want to have it so the dirt bed doesn't revert to dirt see bottom of post for code change. Will be fixed next version

Decided to try my hand at doing a mod and decided to do one others may not be likely to do.

So, I modded the wheat mod done by Victor Hackeridze hackeridze@gmail.com and created a weed mod. Very early stages but seems to work.

TODO:
* Grow lights
* Better graphics (feel free to contribute)
* Some other stuff I may come up with

Depends:
default

So it works by creating a "weed dirt bed":
dirt, sand, dirt = 3 weed dirt beds

(there should also be wild weed plants now) Initially you will have to give yourself seeds ( /giveme weed:weed_seeds 99 ). Craft weed dirt beds. Sow "seeds" (looks like a weed nugget at the moment) into weed dirt bed. Currently growth is only 3 graphics. A sprout, a pot plant and a brownish pot plant (yea I know needs better graphics). When it's a brownish pot plant you can harvest.

You can then make weed flour:
wheat seeds, wheat seeds
weed seeds, weed seeds

Create weed form:
wood in the shape of a U

Put water in the form like you would a bucket.

From there you can make weed brownie dough:
weed flour, weed flour, weed flour
weed flour, weed_form_water, weed flour
weed flour, weed flour, weed flour

Throw the result in a furnace.

EDIT: To make it so the dirt bed doesn't revert to dirt, open the init.lua file and find the following code:

minetest.register_abm({
nodenames = "weed:dirt_bed",
interval = 40,
chance = 3,
action = function(pos, node, _, __)
local p = {x = pos.x,y = pos.y +1,z = pos.z}
local above_node = minetest.env:get_node(p)

for i, plant in ipairs(DIRT_BED_TO_GRASS) do
if (above_node.name == plant) then return; end
end
minetest.env:remove_node(pos)
minetest.env:add_node(pos, {name = "default:dirt"})
end

And change it to:

minetest.register_abm({
nodenames = "weed:dirt_bed",
interval = 40,
chance = 3,
action = function(pos, node, _, __)
local p = {x = pos.x,y = pos.y +1,z = pos.z}
local above_node = minetest.env:get_node(p)

for i, plant in ipairs(DIRT_BED_TO_GRASS) do
if (above_node.name == plant) then return; end
end
minetest.env:remove_node(pos)
minetest.env:add_node(pos, {name = "weed:dirt_bed"})
end

Edited first post with screenshots

Looks Cool!

How to smoke it?

raphael i honestly didnt think anyone would start making a mod like better than wolves from minecraft..this is freakin awesome

do only I have problems with to many mods loaded on one server or is it a common known bug?

if so why create a mod for every crop added to mt ;-)

in mod farming adding your weed would have been calling:

farming_add_crop("weed",<growtime>,<chance to get seed from plain grass>,<chance to get seed from junglegrass>,<chance to get seed from tall grass>,<max distance to water>)

and of course drawing the images

but obviously you already finished so my suggestion is to late ;-)

by the way, say no to drugs ;-)

When I saw this topic I thought it was going to make it so there's weeds like dandelions.

and raphael why dont you make your textures a bit more like minetest instead of doing ULTRA HD textures?

I like hires textures, would be glad every mod could provide them.

Probably an option similar to opaque water, 3d clouds ... an option "Hires Textures (if available)" would be a solution?

This would give everyone the chance to select textures as he/she likes. But this is a little bit off topic in here.

Weed isn't a drug, crack meth and cocaine are drugs As for modding the farming mod I will have to check into that.

Anyway a little surprised at the responses so far. Didn't think there would be any responses much.

I did notice a little issue when testing this last night. Is it just me or is there a limit to the number of mods one can run on a server? I had 28 mods and when adding the weed mod (or any other mod for that matter) got a lua stack error or something until I removed one of the mods.

All I did was find images online, did some editing optimizing and resized to 64x64. I am not a computer graphics artist. In fact my skills with computer graphics is similar to that of a noob.

celeron updated it so the stack can handle over 30

As far as i know you need to specifiy all 6 sides in tile_images if you want to have different ones.
Same to inventorycube it requires 3 images to be fully defined

@RAPHAEL I'm sorry I've rechecked my last comment, for now it doesn't seem possible to create a node with different textures. My comment is only valid for entitys where you even have to add 6 textures to make it work.

But, making grow lamp an entity isn't an option for you as entitys don't have collision detection (you would be able to walk through)

Updated to version 0.0.2 (read first post for details)

yay i can download now!

I will retexture this tonight:D i likes it

Officially requesting this thread be moved to the Mod Releases board.

I'm requesting someone with the interest and skills to re-texture this mod so that it matches more with minetest yet still is definitely a "weed mod".

What version of the game is this designed to work with ?

before march 18 and maybe march 18 2012

Will this work with 20120606?

i have one that works with the 0.4.1 stable and unstable
anyone want it? josh?
