Looks nice. Good job!

(I'm so late to this discussion jesus)

[philipbenr]

@ DevilRomeoAPLUS: Sorry, the topic name is misleading. It still should be castles, but when I finally get the modpack pushed, it will not matter.

@devmarth: Thank you. I'm doing my best with the time I have... Some credit does go to Dan Duncombe, (who has unfortunately left us...)

P.S. Modpack is almost ready. Just a couple more textures and a bunch of aliases to make compatibility with old worlds.

[DevilRomeoAPLUS]

When will it be fixed i kind wanna use this mod lol on my singleplayer

[DevilRomeoAPLUS]

Lol nvm i fixed it just need to remove the s from castles and change it into castle and poop it worked

[swordpaint12]

Where can I find the crafting recipes?

[philipbenr]

They should be the same as the older castles mod... I don't know really. I'll try and give this project a bump this weekend, although I can promise nothing as I still have summer homework I still need to finish.

[Aberts10]

This wont work for me anymore...

remove the master from the end of the name, then try again. If it still doesn't work, remove the s as well

[Aberts10]

Thank you!, does this mod also generate castles?

[swordpaint12]

No, but the work in progress battle towers mod does. It's by rater, I believe, and it also has it's on NPC framework, I think.

[Sokomine]

does this mod also generate castles?

The Lord of the Test game spawns diffrent castles. OldCoder runs a server with that game/subgame. It's worth taking a look.

[Napiophelios]

....

[philipbenr]

Looks good. I might tweak the font a bit...

[Napiophelios]

Sorry I forget I use a larger custom font sometimes,
you may have to realign the text in the formspec

Mainly the liststrings and balancing the look of the formspec
is whats important changes though

I love symmetry :)

[philipbenr]

Same here. The font shouldn't be too hard though...

Anyway, thanks again. ;)

[Napiophelios]

Sorry to keep bothering with you,
but the workbench can be destroyed
even when inventory space is taken.

Minor tweak needed:

Code: Select all

	
can_dig = function(pos,player)
		local meta = minetest.get_meta(pos);
		local inv = meta:get_inventory()
 return inv:is_empty("src") and inv:is_empty("rec") and inv:is_empty("dst")
	end,

[TenPlus1]

I removed the workbench from my standalone version of castles and replaced it with the autocrafter from pipeworks that seems to work a lot better and returns items like empty buckets and vessels.

[philipbenr]

@Napiophelios: Thnx, though I don't really have time unfortunately. I am working right now (11:32 PM or 23:32) on my AP Chemistry. On a weekend. Saturday.

Yes, I am trying to kill myself with the homework. I am taking a break because I am done working for a little while.

@10+1 (srry too lazy): Mmm. Never used pipeworks or stuff of that sort. I also think that it would be easy enough to bounce back buckets and such. Though for the most part, I don't like that level of complexity. Still, I suppose I could try and do it. Maybe Fall/Winter break (if I have no homework).

Yeah-heah-heah-heah-heah, schools spam homework way, way more often than they used to. Glad I am not in school anymore, because from the things I heard, it is hell. How do you cope with it?

[philipbenr]

Like a guy who is buying birthday gifts for his kids two hours before celebrating. Procrastinator, I am. XD The only issue I have is with AP Chemistry, Calculus1/2, and AP US History. Homework is a pain in the arse... Not to mention all the lab writeups.... Spanish isn't hard, but can be quite the pain of I don't study too much (like on the test today XD). Ahh well. I have more to look forward to, like AP European history, Calculus 3/4, Writing 121, all that good stuff. College credit in highschool is awesome. By the time I am finished with highschool, (provided I do get the college credit), I will be a sophomore credit wise on my first year. Cool right?

[philipbenr]

Stuff is getting done. The minetest-mods fork of this mod has some very important bug-fixes, so I'll just post that here:

https://github.com/minetest-mods/castle/

Todo:

1) Download the bugfixes and assimilate into modpack
2) Start final, fresh topic, with the configurator (this mod will be modular. Stay tuned to see how that will work)
3) Make sure I have all the aliases to ensure compatibility with "legacy version" of the mod
4) Continue with planned additions.

After I complete 2, I'll have a working release, but it will have the typical "Don't use in old worlds" disclaimer. Expect that around June/early July. I might be able to push it earlier, but I'd have to do some extensive testing... Please be patient. It is really hard to pick this project back up after half a year of inactivity.

[philipbenr]

From updated README:

Big release coming soon. ;) Stay tuned.

Planned features (anything with question mark means that I am either unsure or don't know how to accomplish it ;)

--More/Better weapons
--More decorations
--More nodes
--Redone columns
--More doors
--Gatehouse mod
--Armor
--More magical items (mana, orbs, potions...)
--Crowns/capes/player decor
--Flags
--Brewery/Liquor (liquor effects is another thing altogether)
--Tannery?
--Books? (that is an interesting one... I'll write a post on it later)
--Guards?
--Player status (King, queen, etc.)?
--Foods?
--Horses/Livestock?
--Ruins?

--Modpack Configurator

Would it be a good idea to add in books on knights code, chivalry, operating weapons, crafting, livestock, and more? I know of a couple different books mods, so I don't think it would be too hard... I have some ideas for the crafting, so don't worry about that. Just the concept. Also give me your comments on all the other questionable ones...

[philipbenr]

So, the chandeliers have been added, and the crossbows are fixed, by replacing the old ones with PilzAdam's one I believe. I didn't do it, so I don't know. Orbs have been updated. The ironbound chest and crate's formspecs have been fixed. Next on the list is occasional feature updates, but also turning the mod into a modpack. Occasional updates will be coming with a few features per update.

[philipbenr]

Here is a new idea. Dye vats. Similar to a furnace.

Add:

• Fuel
  - Wood
  - Leaves
  - Cactus
  - Plants
  etc.

• Dye

• White Wool item (may expand to use unifieddyes/other color mixing mods later)
  - Wool block
  - Tapestry
  - Clothes/cape (?)

Craft:

Code: Select all

Stone | Bucket w/ water | Stone
      |     Stone       |

Output: X Colored input, where X is your dye color
