sky color

by Pythagoras » Post

the engine seems not to expose the sky color to lua.
what i would like to do for modding/custom game is to change this color and - optionally - change size/positions/numbers of suns and moons.
i am not involved in the engine code that far that i could change the api yet, so maybe someone could think of me if he/she is coincidentally working somewhere in this area. ;)

edit:
i fear this is hardcoded in the client part of minetest, so modding that may require extending the network protocol too. ugh!

Are you saying that I put an abnormal brain into a seven and a half foot long, fifty-four inch wide GORILLA?

It would be good. In MC, when you go into different biomes the sky changes color.

Can a texture pack change the sky color?
