[Game] Minetest Extended

Posted: Wed May 13, 2020 16:33

Minetest Extended is a survival/creative sandbox game. Gather, farm, build, explore, and survive OR go creative and build anything.
The goal is to extend the default minetest game with as much features as possible within reasonable boundaries.

More information in the README file
Overall license: LGPLv2.1
Mod/data licenses: see withing mod folders

contentDB: https://content.minetest.net/packages/P ... _extended/
source: https://github.com/PetiAPocok/minetest_ ... ree/master

Gameplay
Survival: Gather resources in the day, survive hunger and the monsters at night.
Mine for ores and gems.
Build yourself a shelter, where you can keep all your treasures and sleep.
Craft better tools and items to become a more professional survivor.
Farming: hit the ground with a hoe and grow your own crops.
Animals: Many different animals are in the world. Feed, breed or kill them. They are tasty.
Build a railway system and have fun with minecarts.
Build complex machines and automate some processes with mesecon circuits.
Or build almost anything without limits in Creative Mode.

Image

I have put some work into this but most of the stuff are made by other moders in the Minetest forums.
Making this game would have been much harder without their mods.

Hi!

Looks cool, but I really miss the'walking_light' mod:
viewtopic.php?t=2621

When I add it to the mods folder, this happens:

Dear goldcrest42!

I can tell you that the 1.1 version of the game is currently under internal testing and that version is containing the walking_light mod's rewritten version (and much more).

If you would like to try the unreleased testing version, it's on github https://github.com/PetiAPocok/minetest_ ... velopement

Hi,

Amazing game, well done.

I have installed it in a container on one of my Pis and it worked until I hit a chicken, since the server shuts down with the following:

Oh, so 5.3.0 is out... Well, that is lovely. I'm gonna update things in minetest_extended_1.1. It is currently under testing and I'm making the final touches.

If helpful I am happy to try the 5.3.0 on the raspi with OMV and on QNAP as a docker if there is an image...

Many thanks

Thanks for your efforts, Peti. I'll see if 5.3.0 has come to the Mac!

It has, and I've restored my extra mods, so far so good. Not MEx yet though.

I have a strange problem. I can fly through walls! I noticed this on MEx before - but it didn't go when I upgraded.

I think I'd better mention this on Github...

You can enable and disable noclip mode (default: H key) if you have the permission, and you can fly through thing. Would you please check if it is the case?

Yes it does work! Thanks! (So that's what 'noclip' is about. I really should RTFM.)

Aaaah.. a walking light, marvellous!

But it seems to be 'followed' by a large red cross. I take it that's a development thing?

Hey, this is fun. When you dig some grass all sorts of stuff drops from it, not just wheat or cotton seeds. And dirt drops things too. I shall put that worm in my veg patch!

Yes, it's to see where is the walking_light:light node, and if it's removed.

And I've been fishing! Love the graphics of the bobber+bubbles. I had cooked salmon for tea, with baked potato, and a salad including cucumber, beetroot, lettuce, and tomato. Afters were strawberries, huckleberries, and grapes. Must try to work out how to do ice cream!

PS: Good to see another usage for tin!

I've just downloaded the latest version of the development game. Lots of interesting new goodies. I caught a bee, I need two more. I shall now go on a gem hunt.

And I must try RL rizibizi, it sounds tasty!

PS: That red cross has now gone.

First, your feedback is appreciated and makes me happy and proud that you enjoy my game.

Second, sadly I know about this bug... And I know what causes it, but if I fix it with the simple method, that leads to a bigger, more annoying bug... And I haven't figoured out a better solution... But it is on my todo list.
