It is really nostalgia!
A bug found, maybe a itemshelf too: If you add 2 different items to the storage, the first one is shown only. If you remove the first own, no items shown in storage.
I'm not sure if anyone in the laptop project is interested, if so feel free to add parts or the whole thing to the core.
Basically interested, yes. The issue is at the time we have the "Modern OS" only. We have the idea and the framework to emulate own OS for each
computer (like Printer have the "Printer launcher", but uses the same framework as "Modern OS" laptops.). But we do not have an OS for the old computers. See
app-request: Simple Shell-like launcher for old computer #32
The second thing are the media capabilities. We have currently "usb" and "floppy" capabilities. Basically the same, the "usb" is allowed to be used as storage and for system backup. The "floppy" for storage and live-boot.
To add new storage types we need to define first the capabilities for them. You assigned all items to the floppy group. It was funny in testing to boot the Modern OS on the Pentium 3
computer using formatted Punch Card oO
- floppy same functionality as other implemented floppy (live-boot + storage)
- CD for liveboot + HDD in ram
- tape for backup/restore on old computers (without USB)
- punch card ??? (was before my time)
Why are you people making mods that add virtual computers inside of actual computers?
Because!
The vision is to get the minetest working in laptop mod in minetest, and then implement a laptop mod for the minetest in laptop mod ;-)
