[mod] more coral [more_coral]

[Nathan.S]

So with 0.4.15 bringing coral to the watery regions of our maps, I thought that we should be able to dye coral into other colors, so I present more_coral.



This mod creates coral in all the colors of dye that the dye mod includes. Like the coral in the game it dyes in air, so you need to make your creations underwater for them to keep their color.

It fits well with minetest game,with every game i would say but it would be cool to have this corals as decorations, so we could have a prettier ocean.

nice mod

I hadn't thought of making these corals spawn as a decoration. I guess I could add that easy enough.

The mod is good, but i think corals look like are better in mod Sea Modpack

[Nathan.S]

Just updated the mod, nothing major, the coral now spawns in mapgen as a decoration. The colors of the coral were tweaked a little bit. Some code cleaning and updates for Minetest 5.3

What is the difference to how they are spawning without the mod?

It would be nice to be able to grow more somehow.
Maybe with the compost mod or making some sort of special soil.

This mod adds extra colors of coral. The coral from default isn't effected by this mod in any way. Previously you could just dye the coral skeletons in all the colors, but now a handful of the corals provided from this mod will spawn in the oceans.
I hadn't thought of making any sort of growth mechanic, but that could probably be added easily enough.

Coral can now spread, one in twenty-five change every five-hundred seconds, suitably slow for something that happens very slow IRL.
