[Mod] Gloop Blocks [20140529] [gloopblocks]

[VanessaE]

Sure it does. Looks like that last pull I merged put xdecor ahead of moreblocks (if both are installed, it prefers xdecor).

Should be fixed in git now (it registers with both xdecor AND moreblocks, but still ignores default stairs if moreblocks is installed, as before; a more proper fix would be to have something of a preference order -- moreblocks, then xdecor, then fallback to stairs, and set aliases as needed, but someone else can code that if they want it).

I submitted a pull request for the error. xdecor no longer allows you to register blocks. I commented out the code instead of taking it out just in case jp allows it again.

xdecor no longer allows you to register blocks.

As a general advice, inform yourself better and be careful when you're asserting something.

The support for registering blocks from external mods has never worked, someone notified me of that on github and then I reverted the global access the same day. VanessaE has been notified 2 times on her tracker as well (to the date of 11-03-2015).

I never meant it as an insult. I just saw that you removed the ability to register blocks. I even added that I left the code in in case you allow it again. I made no suggestion as to why you removed it.

jp, I find no xdecor-related comments from you on my gloopblocks repo, neither in pull requests, nor issues, nor global notifications.

Edit. Wrong thing. Sorry.

Again, I will repeat what I said in the Xanadu topic:

If all you guys know how to do is hate and curse each other, Minetest's community is done for. oOChainLynxOo was not wholly in the wrong, you know. Now, I am starting to see with my own eyes why he left.

You know, repentance and humility really do go quite far in communities, so why don't you guys give those a try. By the way, I really do stare at a wall all day, just like ANDRW said that I do in oOChainLynxOo's Minetest White Knighters video, because my computer's monitor is against a wall. All that being said, if you guys seriously want Minetest to have an actual, real future, then seek to help each other instead of ripping each other to shreds. It is drama like this that caused not only oOChainLynxOo to divorce Minetest for all eternity (not kidding about the eternity part, because he made his Minetest videos private,) but also cornernote, proller, mauvebic, starblessed, and quite a few other individuals.

Maybe I'm just being optimistic, but I like the MT community a lot. I find that people here are generally level headed, and their people one can relate to most of the time. Discussions almost always end well (that I've seen) and there are very few hot heads here.

Thats my 2 cents anyways ;-)

That name "Gloop Blocks" - is that means what is he very simple?

[VanessaE]

The "gloop" part is a reference to the original author's name, "NekoGloop".

[VanessaE]

Wool slabs/stairs/etc have been removed from this mod, as Moreblocks handles those directly now. Same node names, so there should be no unknown nodes.

[VanessaE]

This project has been moved to Gitlab.

[VanessaE]

This mod now implements the more useful (for building) nodes from Usesdirt, since that mod's broken and has long since been abandoned (though if it's present, Gloopblocks will defer to it instead).

[VanessaE]

Important update: due to updates to its API, if you have signs_lib installed, you must update it to commit 4ff54c9a or later, otherwise you will get crashes as Gloopblocks tries to use some of its API functions.
