Ores mods, a complete list

Hamlet · by **Hamlet** » Mon May 14, 2018 13:35 Post

I would like to know which mods add new ores to Minetest Game, because I have been working on my Ores' Statistics mod (which is temporarily not available for download) and I would like to make it support everyone of them.

At the moment I know:

More Ores by Calinou
Xtraores by davidthecreator
Real Minerals by FaceDeer (ported from RealTest)

Please let me know if there are any others, or if there is already such list somewhere!

May need some editing ;-P
but you might get an idea of some more places to look. Krocks mod search tool might be usefull here.

searching for "register _ore" directly in minetest-mods on github reveals this:
https://github.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%9 ... &type=Code

you could also parse the color.txt files such as:

Thanks to everybody for your help, I didn't thought that there were so many!
I've uploaded my mod, currently it supports just the default ores because it seems that it will take a good amount of time to support all the others.

ever thing about minetest.registerd_ores?

You can include lib_materials. It includes Darkage, Technic, Rocks/Minerals, Quartz, and others, conveniently combined into a single mod.

Thanks for the hint, I have tried it to fetch them using this example: lua_api.txt

A working example:

			--print("Ore found: " .. value.ore)

			for element = 1, #ores_list do

					already_listed = true
				end
			end

			if (already_listed == false) then
				table.insert(ores_list, ExtractNodeName(value.ore))
			end
		end
	end
end

ScanForOres()
print(dump(ores_list))

It allows to dynamically create a list of ores, but it can't be used with Ores Stats: it is not possible to dynamically create local variables to store the found ores' names, amounts, etc.

Therefore I've decided to stop development at the point it currently is; the source code is self explanatory, I believe that anyone willing to add new ores to it will be able to do so pretty easily.

That's what tables are for.

If you are going to include unique_ores and random_ores, you would have to do the dynamically-generated list. Check out how Shad did his lib_trm.

Feel free to open a pull request, be sure to include localization support.
