Would it be possible to have air raids? We could have TNT falling from the sky and detonating when they hit the ground. Followed by an Air raid siren. Is this possible? (It would be good for a WW2 adventure map, or an action map.)

Dropping TNT from high area would be a problem due to the fact that chunks in between may be unloaded.

How about a dig dug mod that adds mobs that die in 1hit and float at you through dig dug ore
Sometimes, it's harder to think up a mod than it is to create it.

I was working on this, got a TON of progress done on it..... AND
My SD card corrupted itself, lost a ton of work files, and all my in-progress mod files.


SUPER PISSED.

I'll get around to finishing this soon.

Be warned, this version of mud is highly erosive, and if left alone, can dig a massive cave system, littering it with dirt.

Fortunately, this erosive mud can only be achived by letting flowing sandmud (found at the edges of bodies of water) contact dirt.

Sandmud: WIP, dosnt do much ATM.

Mud: HIGHLY EROSIVE: dries into dirt. is capable of adding more source blocks to itself, and will spread as far as it possibly can. If controlled, can dig out areas for you, without you having to do it yourself.

could you make it dry into like a hardened mud cause my idea was to get mud and then dry it to make a harder dirt.

I could. I only use dirt ATM because the mud is just a darker texture of the dirt.
The main thing I aim to do with this is to make it a controlled mining/large-area-terraforming tool, with disasterous consquences if used improperly. >:D

Vid didn't upload properly.

I can't work on this today, but I'll try to make a release by Monday.

Its both fun and annoying, I keep running into problems that are so easy to fix, but I invent complicated solutions that only half-work.

Hello,
my idea - mod that download (only yours) buildings (from multiplayer) to pc, so you can save your work, and use it in singleplayer :)
(because everything what you see is loaded to pc, so we need script on client side that save your work)
Is it possible?

Could be done using worldedit. But the server would have to install the mod.

Mod request: mod package manager.

You have a file named repos.list which contains mod repository links list. Mod repositories can be rsync, git, mercurial etc. A repository is a folder with some files named: modname.mod

Example modname.mod:

Code: Select all

name=Mod name
description=Some mod
min_minetest_version=0.4.1234
max_minetest_version=0.4.4634
depends=default,flowers,othermod
src=http://link_to_mod_folder
And you have some modmanager.sh script with search, info, install, remove commands. I would implement that by myself but I don't have enough time for this.

I think you already understood I stole the idea from portage, but simplified it a bit :)

That would be great! Right now, we could write a mod that works on the server and sends the area e.g. via email or loads it up somewhere. The client has the data about the nodes somewhere. Big problem here: How do you select which area you want to be saved? Also it might be intresting if the client would cache received chunks so that they are present the next time the client connects and only changed chunks have to be sent again. That might make it easier to view huge areas and save bandwith.

I mean mode only on client side. (but then its cheating? :S)
- "How do you select which area you want to be saved?"
by walking :) , so everythink what you see (and its yours = you are owner of land) will be automatically saved to your pc.
start/stop recording: with command?

Saving everything might be possible. Local commands don't work with the current LUA interface. And your client has no idea which land you own :-) It's something that needs to be done at the c++ level.
Some people seem to have modified their clients so that they can more or less fly without the fly priv.
