Mese Lamp Slab?
Mese Lamp Slab?
How would I go about getting a Mese Lamp Slab that would allow other types of slab to stack on it. What I mean is I would like a Mese Lamp Slab that would let me stack a Quartz Slab on it to make a single block.
It allows me to use a regular Mese Lamp block then stack a Quartz Slab on it to form a 1.5 block. I would be cool to have a lamp + slab = 1 solid bock.

Re: Mese Lamp Slab?
Different slabs can't stack like the way you're probably asking, they can't share the same node space.

Re: Mese Lamp Slab?
The Mese Lamp block allows any 1 slab to stack on top for a 1.5 block, but it will not allow the lamp to stack on top of a slab, then have another slab fit on top. This would allow a full 2.0 block, thus avoiding the dreaded dead space when making a floor that is self lit.
It is odd that the Mese Lamp block itself allows any 1 slab to fit perfectly to make a combo 1.5 seamless block, but it still has that stacking limitation. If I could get a Mese Lamp Slab to act exactly like a Mese Lamp Block for stacking purposes that would work.

Can someone who understands minetest '"physics" better than I do explain this?

Re: Mese Lamp Slab?
I believe when you stack 2 slabs of the same type, the slabs are removed from the map and replaced with a full block of that particular node, so if you were to make this work, you would have to register a whole node for every single possible slab combination, something which I'm not sure has been done, and I'm not sure it is possible to do in a way that doesn't compromise performance.

Re: Mese Lamp Slab?
well yes this would be possible to have a slab that is cross compatible with every other slab from the default slab/stairs mod
it just would take a ton of cross registering

Re: Mese Lamp Slab?
You need to register the other slab as a nodebox with a negative y bounding box beyond -0.5. Hope this helps.

you can play around with this.

Re: Mese Lamp Slab?
Thanks guys, I will play around with this. As a hack, I added light source to the quartz slab. Obviously fixing the root of this would be better.
