I'm working on it already, try this https://github.com/D00Med/vehicles/arch ... vement.zip

Hi D00Med,

I just tried, it's much better, I'll see how the vehicles behave on our server, but I can already say it's more functional.

Thanks for your work.

[D00Med]

Thanks, and you're welcome

tested it in about 2 minutes and got a lot of errors and crashes,

I'm working on it

[emperor_genshin]

Good stuff :)

[D00Med]

Update:
>Improved steering and braking. Steering is better whilst the cars brakes are being used, and the difference between normal turning and turning whilst braking can be specified in a vehicles definiton.
>The boat has a boost effect similar to that of cars
>Pressing 'down' will now slow a vehicle to a stop before it moves backwards.

I am still waiting new vehicles.They haven`t added yet:(

[D00Med]

Making the models is very time consuming, I will get around to it though because I want to have those vehicles too.

[Sokomine]

The models look very nice!

This reminds me of the old city-like maps on a MC creative server where we where building. The map was seperated into plots, and around the plots there where roads in a grid-like pattern. One of the things I desperately wished for was some life on these roads. Some cars to drive by, some pedestrians walking along...I wonder if it would be doable to let car-entities "drive" around automaticly. In combination with a mapgen that knows where it placed roads it might actually work.

[D00Med]

Thankyou, and that's a really cool idea, it might be possible with the cityscape mod.

[the_raven_262]

Awesome mod indeed :)
Thats a nice weapon arsenal there, will you make some flame tanks too? xD
Or napalm bombs, either way, to watch the world burn :D

[D00Med]

That's a good idea too. I will finish the other vehicles first though

Game breaking bug

Tried the latest version and it crashes Minetest after simply punching a vehicle (in my test it was the blue car) to store it after i just exited said vehicle.

This didn't happened in the older version (from several months ago) i have played, so can't say when it started to happen unfortunately.

[D00Med]

Latest version, as in the stable?
I will test the mod and see what's wrong.

[texmex]

D00Med, I was thinking: Is it possible to make vehicles bounce, vertically?

[azekill_DIABLO]

D00Med, I was thinking: Is it possible to make vehicles bounce, vertically?

[D00Med]

Yes, they could bounce with an animation, or move up and down slightly, but they can't tilt like azekill_DIABLO's gif.
Why would you want them to do that?(curious)

[texmex]

I'm looking to create a pogo stick so the bounce will have to be more than slight.

[D00Med]

You could make the stick entity have downward acceleration, and whenever a node other than air or water is found below it(within ~0.1 units) set the velocity to something high enough to make it rise.

Sounds like it could work, will try.

by latest version i mean the one here :
https://github.com/D00Med/vehicles
that when downloaded is this :
https://github.com/D00Med/vehicles/archive/master.zip

not one of the branches.
It just crashes with minetest game + only the vehicle mod , without any other mods.

[D00Med]

Try it now, I think I've fixed it.

[John_Constructor]

Ten out of ten, the "Assault Suit" being the best vehicle in my opinion! Honestly I'd like to see more walker-like vehicles (Such as a mech designed for mining with two drill-wielding arms maybe?).

[D00Med]

Thanks :) It's my favourite too.
I do plan on making something like that, but for now I'm still finishing the trucks etc.
