Good thinking. It's a viable alternative to granting "global" fly privilege.

Thanks Texmex and azekill_DIABLO.

Yes antigravity field would explain it too.
You can try it. If you leave the radius fly is taken and
you fall down, then the field catches you again and you fly.
This effects works best when you leave at top of the sphere.

I would change the recipe to containing mese. Diamond properties are known to science already, while the mysterious powers of mese is rarely known…

Yes I like that idea of using mese. I was only afraid it would make the
device too cheap.

But it is pretty easy to change recipe in the init.lua file to whatever one likes :)

It is always round (sphere). Distance is calculated by vectors.
To change radius open init.lua and replace

maxdistance = 20

with maxdistance = 10

Lol, looks you are the bug hunter here :D Try yourself and tell me, no bugs I know of so far.

Or try this:

I was thinking of that too, But I decided not to. technic always
means you are bound to cables and Energy production. And
long cables is lag generator number one on the server. At least
what I experienced so far. Nevertheless you still need technic
to produce the uranium ingot to craft the node. :)
(if technic mod is installed)

The mod could be modifed to add others privileges, like interact no? no need to have shields blocks, just need 1 interact block.

Yes you can use it with any priv you want. But I think using minetest api for protection and
protection violation is much faster than my on step function.

There used to be a mod which gives privileges by area. I forgot who made it. Ruben Wardy maybe ?

i will see later! but i don't think the on step is so laggy... if it is maybe fing a way to improve performance by checking with more intervals or disable with distance...

V 1.1


Added chatcommand "/7" to call back aviator to inventory. More convenient
use of it. Like this can be used for climbing/descending and easier building.

[Mod] Aviator - craft node and fly [1.2][aviator]

by u18398 » Post

--- Update to V1.2 ---


New version allows larger radius than 20 nodes.
But if you like to use this you have to change the
setting in your minetest.conf:

max_forceloaded_blocks = 1000

(for example. The mod will tell you if it can not allocate an other
forceloaded block)



See also readme.md in the aviator folder.

Little bugfix:

the aviator is blast resistant now.
Cheating with tnt to gain free aviators will not work anymore.

This could be good for construction. without letting the player cheat to travel over obstacles. The player would need to be on or next to the aviator node begin flying and could only end the flight next to the aviator node. That could be done by teleporting the player back to the aviator when he digs and limiting how far he can fly.

I tried the crane mod, but it wasn't letting the player fly.

This is exactly what it does when you place an aviator node. You start getting fly priv next to where you placed it.
I do not think that cheating with aviators is a real issue. They are pretty expensive and you think twice where to use it and when. Like this it is also very conveniently usable for exploring caves, climbing cliffs or much more. Just recall your aviator with "/7" and place it again. The rich players on my servers like it for building :)

With the current 5.3 dev Minetest version, I now see the time remaining and my distance from the Aviator, but I don't fly.

I would sort of like an Aviator with unlimited time, but restrictions so that it can't be used to travel. Or, it could not be movable after it is placed, only destroyable, but not movable.

With 5.2 stable it works.
