This mod is a rework of the Orewood mod by desvox. This remake was done because I'm a great procrastinator the original one did not recieve updates for a while and I needed to do something productive while procrastinating a way to make tin and other things renewable. And as my nickname suggests, I like to stay on or near the surface which makes me wonder why on earth I keep adding all those underground content mods to every world I create. And the original one now gives a 404 error message when I try to view the source code TT_TT
ANYWAY, this mod adds a special wood node that generates among trees (on worldgen) and jungle trees (see screenshot). Craft or harvest this special node and place it near water to grow a special papyrus that drops specific mineral resources when broken.
Some types of wood (iron, gold, copper, tin and clay) can be cooked to make hotwood. Place hotwood near lava and save a lot of fuel by not having to smelt lumps into ingots or bricks.
NOTE: if the orewood is being cooked into charcoal:
1) Find out the name of the mod adding charcoal;
2) Add that mod to "depends.txt" with a question mark. Example:
charcoal?
The ores in natura:
Overview of the papyri you can grow:
A few recipes (interface is from unified inventory and unified inventory plus):
recipes:
Cooking orewood will give you hotwood (for ores that have ingots and for clay) instead of its resource.
New growables: tin, clay, obsidian, non-renewable liquids, ingots.
Textures were changed.
I may or may not have changed the rarity of some orewoods.
Hot wood and Fluid wood.

License:
For code: CC0
For textures: most are derived from minetest default, and as such, are under CC BY-SA 3.0, view CREDITS.txt for the full list.
There are also a few hideous textures under CC0 that I made using a lot of effects from the image editor.
If I forgot to mention some texture in CREDITS.txt (or if I did something wrong), be sure to report here so I can fix it.
Dependencies: default (already in minetest_game)
Optional: moreores;
glooptest;
quartz;
technic_worldgen;
blox;
ethereal; (will add Etherium-related items Soon™)
(will add links and extras Soon™)
>Seems to work with any (sub)games that have the "default" mod included.
>Can be added to old wolrds that had the orewood mod in them (just disable orewood and enable orewood_reborn when configuring the world).
-Incompatible with Mineclone2 (sub)game.
WARNING:
THIS MOD IS A WORK IN PROGRESS (WIP).
May be moved to mod releases Soon™
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY:
Be sure to leave feedback, suggestions and let me know if I forgot to add anything important (like credits). And to have a nice day and enjoy the game.
minetest_game version: 5.0.0 and newer (may work on older versions, feel free to test and let me know).
Current mod version: 0.04 click here to download
To update the mod, remove the previous version from the mod folder and place the new version. Or just overwrite it.
Click here for the changelog. Or here for the source code. Notice that the file to place orewood on worldgen was not uploaded yet because it requires some testing.

Re: [Mod] Orewood Remake [orewood_reborn]
Do the special orewood nodes generate in trees that you grow yourself, from saplings?
What is SCP-055?

Re: [Mod] Orewood Remake [orewood_reborn]
Interesting mod. Note that this will get overpowered when it's combined together with technic and pipes.
If you lack the reality, go on a trip or find a job.

No, only on world generation. I'll add that information to the 1st post.Chem871 wrote:Do the special orewood nodes generate in trees that you grow yourself, from saplings?
I'll have to take a look at those two then... Do you think rebalancing will be needed for those who don't use technic and pipes as well or only for users of those mods?Hume2 wrote:Interesting mod. Note that this will get overpowered when it's combined together with technic and pipes.

ps. ignore the attached screenshots in this reply (you can see them all in the 1st post).

Re: [Mod] Orewood Remake [orewood_reborn]
I think, coal, clay, lava and river water canes are OK (edit: and obsidian). For the others, I think, there could be other ores those could be obtained only from trees. These ores could be used for tools as well but they wouldn't completely replace the ores found underground. Another alternative is that there would be no canes and the resources would be obtained directly from orewood. Then the orewood could generate randomly also in newly planted trees.ShallowDweller wrote: I'll have to take a look at those two then...

Re: [Mod] Orewood Remake [orewood_reborn]
I currently don't know how to make orewood spawn on planted trees, but I can do some research to find that out.Hume2 wrote:I think, coal, clay, lava and river water canes are OK (edit: and obsidian).

I will do some research on how to enable/disable the generation of specific nodes by setting a value to true or false to allow users to get rid of them if they want to, and hopefully make the setting available in-game (would this help?).
I'll add that to the to-do list.
As for adding surface-exclusive ores:
I currently have no plans of adding new tools/weapons to the game in the near future. Sorry about that...
However, if you plan on making a mod that adds new tools, I can make orewood_reborn generate their ores/ingots/crystals/lumps for you. Or at least help you with the code and/or textures if you don't want your mod to depend on other mods, since the original mod's code is under WTFPL and mine is under CC0, meaning that anyone is free to use it.

Re: [Mod] Orewood Remake [orewood_reborn]
Yes, this will help. It is always easier to edit configuration than tweaking the mod by hand.ShallowDweller wrote: I currently don't know how to make orewood spawn on planted trees, but I can do some research to find that out.

I have a different idea. There could be a function orewood_reborn.register_tree_ore(...) that could be used by other mods. Each mod could add its own tree ores.ShallowDweller wrote: As for adding surface-exclusive ores:

Glad to know :)Hume2 wrote: Yes, this will help. It is always easier to edit configuration than tweaking the mod by hand.
*goes keep researching*
I'll research how to do this. It looks like the kind of thing that will be extremely useful when I add compatibility to other mods (I already added the compatibility.lua and the dofile, but the file is currently empty and I initialy screwed up when adding the nodes.lua and its dofile but I managed to make it work as it should).Hume2 wrote: I have a different idea.

ps. thanks for the feedback! :)
