Honda N-box (nodebox).

hey, i can make that car, if you really want it!

I have forked this mod and have changed the physics and motion which was making the car 'float' in land like a boat. The collision box was stopping the car climbing nodes, not applicable in water of course. But i kept that and made the car only able to climb slopes created by half-slabs, although the slope climbing is rather crude and jumpy. I'll try to sort out an off road motion that can climb full nodes.

If you mean the fact that when it hits the node it jumps up, in the original, that was behaviour I added afterward to make it go up slops, by adding step height. Make the value lower to stop it climbing as high slopes.

Dan, thats odd, my experience with your mod is that the collision box stops the car getting near a node to climb it. I raised the collision box and the car then can then float through and up the slope with the boat physics of PilzAdam's mod, i'm not sure adding step height has any effect.

Esteban, i looked at your code and noticed you have duplicated the original code for each car. there's a lot of unneccesary duplicated code, for example the helper functions only need be defined once, the remaining code should be edited for multiple car use ... although i don't know how

You need an up-to-date build for stepheight.

I don't know if I've done something wrong, but the mod installs, but I can't place cars.

You can only place the car on nodes with the group "cracky". Try placing it on stone.

What about an older Land Rover for an offroad vehicle?

Typo: punching "car:hot_rod" will give you "car:hot_road" (line 3151).

i can get it in

wow i love it! great work! :D

Great mod! But it doesn't work good in multiplayer.

1.http://itmages.ru/image/view/1818037/d064dfc4
Player model faces the wrong direction.

2. if i punch car with player, it will drop and player will become invisible.

The mod is good but the cars are not very fast :/

.

Maybe i would fix it if i found enough time. Will see.

Hey i have 4.9 and when i try to place it nothing happens help please

These were recently fixed in 'boats' mod, which is now in default minetest game. Dan's car mod is very similar to boats mod https://github.com/minetest/minetest_ga ... s/init.lua see 'on rightclick' and 'on punch' functions and update your code, i recently had to do this for my own car mod.

EDIT
See this for bug 2 https://github.com/minetest/minetest_ga ... 6#comments

Hello,

Good works but i have this error :

Thanks
