[Mod] Pyramids [0.4.2 beta] [pyramids]

[paramat]

There are pyramids and ziggurats in many places without deserts :) I wouldn't be surprised if Czech republic has them hidden somewhere.

neron, in MT 0.4.9 the dungeons are different in desert biomes and are now a type of 'desert temple', haven't seen them yet as i'm still using 0.4.8.

[Pitriss]

paramat: Ehh I live in Czech republic more than 30 years, so please stop trying to be expert for everything:// There are no pyramids at all.. Even on internet there is no trusthworthy site that will say otherwise..

[Landrover110]

cool i will download it now

[BlockMen]

I have a request that is can you please add a different types of pyramids like:
Egyptian Pyramid with short mummies(the biggest and strongest pyramid)
Czech Pyramids with tall mummies(2nd most strongest)
Normal Pyramids with normal mummies(At last)
Egyptian pyramids would be gigantic and be having lots of treasure(spawning: super dooper rare)
Czech would be smaller and weaker(spawning: rare)
Normal would be normal(spawning:Moderate)
Tanks in advance i would really like it if you will add this in the next version
(My 2nd most favorite mod this is and i am a kid and do not know lua.)

There will be jungle pyramids in the future, but i can't tell you when i will add them.
Czech pyramids? Nope, sry.

Oh, should be fixed now. https://github.com/BlockMen/pyramids/commit/fd0d11df1cc8bdd73d95827e7fc8ed6965b4032f

Jungle Pyramids would be a really good idea... Could also make Small Castles In jungles even through this is a Pyramid mod :)

[mcfan]

For some reason I don't get the pyramid part when the pyramid generates. I just get the room and the pillars.

Maya "pyramides"/temples would be nice.

I know... Have seen some pictures of them before... They look great.

I had the mod and It worked fine for me, Also works fine on some of the servers I've seen.

BTW nice nick :P

Another one for you, BlockMen. No idea how or why this happened, I just saw it in my logs while I was searching for an unrelated crash.

Hi, Blockmen!
I compiled minetest from git 7a6e4dc54a3eb4187e67a21c4ece60f39bb1d13b today and tried pyramids.

I've been getting:

Code: Select all

WARNING: Assignment to undeclared global "p2" inside a function at ../mods/pyramids/init.lua:137

which is part of

Code: Select all

minetest.register_on_generated(function(minp, maxp, seed)

and line 137 is:

Code: Select all

      p2 = minetest.find_node_near(mpos, 25, {"default:desert_sand"})

I really want to use this mod, but pyramids dont seem to spawn in deserts. I'm also using mapgen v7 incase that has something to do with the issue.

[Napiophelios]

add "local" to the beginning of line 137 and see if you still get the error

Code: Select all

local p2 = minetest.find_node_near(mpos, 25, {"default:desert_sand"})

with mapgen v7 the pyramids seem to generate under ground

[swordpaint12]

This is neat, I haven't come across a pyramid yet but it's a very nice mod!

[bbaez]

Hi,

I added local as above to fix that error but now get the following. I also added an error from CME that preceded it. I don't think it is related since I see that error often, but just in case.

Those are shown since you have placed spawners but disabled at leat zombies and sheep of CME. You can "fix" that by using chat command /clearobjects but be aware that this command removes all objects from world (like dropped items and mobs).

And wich version of pyramids are you using, 0.4 or 0.4.1?

Update Version 0.4.2 released

Changelog (0.4.1 + 0.4.2):
- Fix unhandled exception (by vitaminx)
- Fix global variable warnings (by duane)

[bbaez]

Sorry BlockMen that I didn't get back to you. Thanks for the tips about CME. There is something more strange going on there and I need to verify. As for the version, it was 0.4.1 beta (a git pull as of Jul 1 2015).

[bbaez]

Hi BlockMen,

I tried using /clearobjects but after a few minutes there is a core dump. Tried this several times. Not descriptive, sorry. Anyway of turning up logging without recompiling?

Thanks for the help!

[Don]

@bbaez - the same thing happened to me. I just kept loading the world a bunch of times and it finally cleared things.

[bbaez]

Thank you Bats! After 40 times or so clearing objects I implemented the clean mode posted on "Delete unknown blocks and objects" that prestidigitator posted. So far working great.
