Tunneling
I put together some code for more rational tunneling in this fork. It does require changes to the mobs redo api, including a new callback.

A problem that occurs is that none of the other goblins are going to follow the diggers down those narrow tunnels.

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
This is great! Working much better, however, I did have to remove the vector.round helper from lines 39-41 to get the goblins to find nodes as before. Does the vector helper orient the coords relative to the object.self instead of the world? If so, that is really cool and we can make sure that goblins are not digging behind themselves. For now, it is disabled and git repo updated!TenPlus1 wrote:Updated Goblins redo to use original search & replace code within do_custom, should work same as original now :) Mobs Redo mod updated also with some new additions to help...

Wow again! I'm going to try your new digger ASAP, it looks really cool. I'm not sure the other gobs need to follow the digger, they will probably discover dug areas from wandering about before too long...duane wrote:I put together some code for more rational tunneling in this fork.

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
I'm trying out, what I believe is the latest update, and I keep getting this error spamming the chat.
ERROR[server]:Map::setNode(): Not allowing to place CONTENT_IGNORE while trying to replace "default:mossycobble"
I don't find any errors in the debug file though. I did notice that it seems every Goblin related function is printed out, resulting in an extremely lengthy debug.txt. 15 or 20 minutes of running around resulted in 33,000 lines, most of them being related to the Goblins digging and their locations.

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
Any time I have gotten that error was when a mod calls to place a node that I dont have;
its usually happens because I misspelled something
edit: line 297 and line 651 he misspelled "default:dessert_stone" is supposed to be "default:desert_stone"
see if that helps
edit2:
or it could be line 768 using "group:stone"

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
Yeah the king will need to have some special tricks. I still need a solution for him to replace mese nodes with chests with loot that can be somewhat random (and possibly nasty surprises too), I'm getting familiar with abm functions so I don't think it is too far off..duane wrote:You know the king must have TNT.

Apologies for the rapid changes to this mod, one of the reasons for it being in the WIP state and debug message spam (you can disable, if you like). It's my first MT mod and I'm learning something new every time I play with it. I really appreciate the feedback and help so far, thank you!
Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
FreeLikeGNU: check out Blockmen's Pyramids mod, it has a function that can fill a chest with treasure that you may be able to adapt for Goblins...
also... is the mobs redo version working for you now ?

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
TenPlus1, it's working quite well now! I'm thinking about a way to check if redo is active, and if so use that, or use your api, but included with my mod as standalone.TenPlus1 wrote:FreeLikeGNU: check out Blockmen's Pyramids mod, it has a function that can fill a chest with treasure that you may be able to adapt for Goblins...

In other words, remove mobs_goblins repo and keep an updated copy of your current api in goblins and make that the one repo to be maintained. That way if folks already have redo (and made their own changes to it), then goblins will use that. Folks that do not have/want the whole redo can still use goblins as standalone.
edit (fix typo)
Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
I started working on a treasure mod. The chests are nodes and when you break them they drop random items. You might get a few ideas. Just know that it is a wip.

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
FreeLikeGNU: Glad it's working ok... My only concern was that Mobs Redo has it's own api which is updated quite a bit and the one included in your Goblins mod may end up running an older version with your code included, which is why I recommended using the main API instead and putting your goblin specific code inside the mob definition itself to keep the api clean... This way the two wouldn't clash and cause errors...
Other than that, I love the Goblins mod and end up with loads of the little guys running around underground stealing my torches and setting up traps around me...

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
Glad you are enjoying the goblins! Have you considered moving the content (models, defs, sounds, etc) from Mobs Redo so that it is separate from the API as the goblins, water, air and other mobs are?TenPlus1 wrote:FreeLikeGNU: Glad it's working ok...

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
I did that at one point, had a separate api with mobs you could enable and disable, but players wanted a simple pack to install that gives a basic set to the game, default animals and monsters... but it's easy to disable a mob from within the init.lua for those that want it...

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
TenPlus1: I guess what I'd like is for the goblins to work standalone or with the mobs redo if its installed. Maybe I can have the init check for the api.lua in the goblins folder and, if its been deleted by the user, to use mobs redo api.lua instead?
I really like your API and what you've done with goblins, I'd rather not maintain two repos for goblins. I think your version is the way going forward. It's not a big deal for me to update a file in my repo as you update your API.

I'm adding it right to the mobs mod directory. Works pretty good with zombies, I don't know. Thanks for them!! Hope you add the super wicked traps.

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
Added duane's traps (with some further modifications ;-) to standalone and redo goblins. Tinkering with traps may be painful.
Edit: i really should learn git better, merging in parts of duane's fork rather than copy-paste :p

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
That's my fault. I just meant to throw some extra code into that fork for you to look at, but I ended up including all my own personal tweaks. I wouldn't even attempt to merge it with anything as it is.FreeLikeGNU wrote:i really should learn git better, merging in parts of duane's fork rather than copy-paste :p
On a brighter note, I went in this morning and corrected a LOT of logic errors in the tunneling code, and (thanks to tenplus1) I got it working with stock mobs redo. The do_custom function is amazingly versatile if you know how to use it. You should be able to just paste it in for any "dungeon-building" creature.
I've intentionally stuck with letting the creatures make only one change per "walk", which required altering the search/replace that tenplus1 put in to not use a replace chance. It's unnecessary when the mobs can only do one thing at a time, and they were occasionally changing whole swaths of nodes instantly as it was.
They're making a barge-load of tunnels, rooms, and such now -- probably more than some would prefer, but I like it.
Let me say again, that this mod is excellent, bordering on genius. Letting mobs make significant alterations to the environment is a quantum leap over what I've seen in the game so far.

We do need to decide what happens when you quench a molten gold flowing block. I'm not for making it gold ore.

Re: [WIP] Goblins [mobs_goblins]
I'm starting to think that we ought to slightly reduce the spawn rates for most of the goblins except the cobbler (and maybe the digger) on stone/ores, and include mossycobble in their spawn nodes. That would tend to keep them together, and more importantly they wouldn't starve themselves out by replacing the ores they spawned on. I hate to see abandoned lairs.Ferk wrote:I think that as a WIP mod that's fine, but maybe the goblins should be less common and a bit more concentrated in particular areas. So that it's more of a discovery to manage to find a den of goblins. You still could get some solitary goblin explorer that starts messing up your cave, but it shouldn't be as frequent as in the WIP version of the mod.
Edit: Yep, I did that and it works a lot better. The lairs aren't quite as empty.

You could always make it optional (or throw it out). The random node replacement was annoying to me, and I really wanted to see them dig into other caves. They hit a lava cave the other day, and I was amazed at how long the little devils can survive in molten rock.
