[Mod] Micronodes [0.1.0] [micronode]

Minetest version: 0.4.9-dev (current dev)
Depends: default
Download: version 0.1.0
Browse Code: github

Adds miniature node-like objects, purely for fun and decoration.
Micronodes can be placed on any pointed node or other micronode face,
they will automatically snap to the closest grid position.
Just like ordinary nodes, use right-click to place and left-click to dig.

This mod is probably best suited to creative mode, however an optional
micronode cutting laser has been added for those wishing to use this in
a survival game.

Issues

Servers can get upset if they find too many active objects in one place
and may randomly remove stuff. If you have problems then try increasing
max_objects_per_block in minetest.conf

Note: Requires a recent development build that includes the following commits
#1b5b6fe: Pass pointed_thing to on_punch and minetest.register_on_punchnode callbacks
#c9b6420: Fix error when calling minetest.node_punch without a pointed_thing
These should be present in most windows builds by now.

OOh, stu delivered!

Nice mod, like always

[Krock]

Horray! The Micronodes are here!

[CraigyDavi]

This is brilliant! Thanks for another great mod stu!

Are we playing the same game ... ??? o.O

BTW: I love this mod. ^^

Oops! well spotted (updated)

Thanks for all the encouraging comments so far guys,

Absolutely incredible! It has it's issues, but that is to be expected. I never though you could do something like this in minetest.

Just an idea:
Would it be possible to add something like 3D crafting. Using micronodes for crafting nodes and items in a 3x3x3 grid? Although 2x2x2 would even be enough for all moreblocks stair-like nodes.

Thanks, it was mostly written as a technical exercise and because others said it could not be done ;-)
If nothing else there are some useful routines in there that others may find helpful.

Love this idea but I think I will leave that for someone else to implement ;-)

Good work ! :)

[dpbqRman]

Are you planning on adding mesecons?

[dpbqRman]

Could you add mesecons to size?

[TechNolaByte]

Could you add mesecons to size?

that would probably be impossible or if not extremely difficult and laggy

mesecons has to register hundreds of items for all the different wire placements and this doesn't use nodes it uses entity's or objects so every micronode isn't even a node its an entity

Indeed, this is a very out-dated mod, I'd be surprised if it still even works. There are likely better ways to do this now but I never really intended this to be more than an experimental bit of fun. The 3d crafting idea was an interesting one though.

Nice it's compatible for new version ?
