I'm create a simple mod that add 3 new chests to the Minetest:
Cobble stone chest - has the same inventory size as wooden, but more durable
Iron chest - has inventory size of 10x6 slots
Mese chest - biggest chest, inventory - 12x8 slots

Nice mod. I bet I know who is going to add this mod to their server. *cough*RAPHAEL*cough*

For comparison, the MESE chest is 3 times larger then your player's inventory.


Also, are there locked versions of those chests?

I'm not figured out how to do it yet.
But, work in progress.

I will add it to RTMMP :>

What? lol. This may get added if a locking version is made. Despite looking nice I have little use for unlocked chests.

Locking chests added to git.

Link to zip archive of Morechests v1.1 (with locked chests): https://github.com/downloads/Daraku/mor ... s-v1.1.zip

Note: v1.1 - has a major bug (inventory is limited to the default 8x4 for all chests), so don't use it.

Stable version: https://github.com/downloads/Daraku/mor ... s-v1.0.zip

will this be fixed ??

Yes.
I'm working on path for minetest to fix this.

Chests implementation in minetest is hardcoded As soon as I will have a better understanding how locked chests works, I will contact Celeron to discuss the issue.

You just need to implement your chests using the "generic" metadata rather than any of the hardcoded metadatas. See experimental:luafurnace.

Also note that the metadata stuff is subject to change in the future, more or less. Because it sucks.

The problem is with the locked chests. As i'm see it now, there are no posibilities to set ownership of the node from lua, and denie access to it inventory.

MESE CHEST RECIPE IS THE BEST!

You crossed recipe spaces with bcnjr5's secret chest (cobble chest). Just so you know...

No he didn't, bcnjr5 registered after this mod was created.

keep telling yourself that...
BTW I have something else to work on, so...no more debating about how that person crossed recipes with BCNJR5's secret chest...

Look at when this mod was made, and look at bcjrn or however you spell it's register date.

Look at one mod's craft definition, and look at the other's. They are the same. While you are correct that bcjrn had registered after this mod was created, LolManKuba, SegFault22 is also correct in saying that the recipes conflict.

Morechest and morefurnaces seems cool but can't get them to work with 20120606.

The mesefurnace kills the game everytime with ; And mesechest are unusable.

Any tips ?

Cheers.

The recent node metadata changes broke this mod. It will be unusable until someone updates it.

For more information, see here: http://minetest.net/wiki/doku.php?id=ch ... e_metadata

At the time of writing this, this mod seems to be broken. I hope someone comes up with a fix soon.

Your recipes will need updated soon - Mese has changed:

(I suggest using Mese Crystals in place of the old Mese object)
