Is it possible to make empty hand place nodes?

by chaosomnium » Post

Is it possible to override the hand definition to allow it to place nodes? I tried messing w/ on_place but i'm not sure what to do with it or even if it's the right way to go about this. i.e. you have an empty hand and you right click and it will place node "default:stone", for example(?)

nvm, figured it out:

Code: Select all

minetest.override_item("", {
	on_place = function(itemstack, placer, pointed_thing)
		local ret = minetest.item_place(ItemStack("default:stone"), placer, pointed_thing)
		return ItemStack("default:stone")
	end,
	...
