Re: [Mod] Laptop (WIP)
well it could probably use very similar mechanics to the Tetris game app
use 3 buttons on the side: up left right
have a 2 block tall green Sam and just have a line of 7 or so grass blocks or dirt blocks
it doesn't have to be a playable clone of Tetris just a novelty thing like you wouldn't actually spend time playing it just to have it is awesome enough(also can you imagine the bragging material this could make for who ever creates it?)

Re: [Mod] Laptop (WIP)
That's entirely feasible, particularly if it's a top down view with very simple game mechanics (like move forward, left, right, backward, place node, and use tool). It could even take advantage of Minetest's builtin perlin noise generator. In essence, I envision it being similar to Rogue.RSLRedstonier wrote:I have the ultimate idea...

inside of a computer
inside of normal 3d minetest
inside of a real computer
though if its ever done it would be SUPER simple like just a flat grass line with a moving sam on it

Re: [Mod] Laptop (WIP)
What currency mods would people like to see this mod use for optional dependencies?

Re: [Mod] Laptop (WIP)
how about instead of using a currency make a store which uses a table in a config file so server owners can set it to anything they likeGamingAssociation39 wrote:What currency mods would people like to see this mod use for optional dependencies?
perhaps something that looks like this
Code: Select all
shop.list = {
{<item id and quantity to buy>,<item id and quantity to pay>,<optional description>,<optional max stock, if blank have unlimited stock>},
{"default:stone 15","group:soil 3","Compress your soil to stone!",270},
{"default:diamond","randomcurrencymod:randomcurrency 3"},
}

Re: [Mod] Laptop (WIP)
So the app store is definitely for apps. We plan on adding a trading/store soon.

Re: [Mod] Laptop (WIP)
then perhaps have the currency be also in the config file
then sell apps for the set currency id and the amount should be set depending on the app but then it can be customized in the settings
Code: Select all
appstore.value = {<currency id>,<currency value ratio>}
ex.
appstore.value = {"default:diamond",default_app_price*4}

Re: [Mod] Laptop (WIP)
I think we need to define the Minetest money currency name at the first. BitTestCoins? MTC (Mine test coins)? THe value base is connected to gold, so gold_lump is 10
Second we need an exchange table like
This is the most difficult part, to get the table balanced, because it does allow to exchange gold to our currency and then buy diamonds. So if you does a big gold vein, you can buy anything.
At the end the app pricing, as attribute in app definition, like
Second we need an exchange table like
Code: Select all
mtc_rate = {
["default:gold_lump"] = 10,
["default:gold_ingot"] = 10,
["default:mese_crystal"] = 50,
["default:diamond"] = 100,
["othermod:othermoney"] = 12,
["homedecor:coin"] = 0.6,
}
At the end the app pricing, as attribute in app definition, like
Code: Select all
laptop.register_app("mail", {
app_name = "Mail",
app_icon = "laptop_email_letter.png",
app_info = "Write Mail to Other Players",
app_groups = { "internet", "office" },
app_price = 99,95,

Re: [Mod] Laptop (WIP)
Ok, I decided to give this one a test but for the life of me I can't figure out how to get a computer to test. All I can manage to get is a floppy disk. Is there a recipe or a giveme code I am missing??

We have to get recipes done still. At the moment you can't get it in survival they can only be gotten in creative mode.

Re: [Mod] Laptop (WIP)
perhaps the printer could be made to copy written books?

Re: [Mod] Laptop (WIP) (V. 0.35)
Quite a few changes by bell07 and myself
-Many changes to themes, most notably icon label background
-New Theme, Boing! (based on Amiga)
-Larger background files have been indexed to reduce pallet size (they look the same but are smaller files, load faster)
-A bug was fixed in TNT Sweeper that could throw off bomb count

Thank you, that's the Boing theme. Look up Amiga ball demo if you want to see what it's based on.
