[Mod] xp_redo [1.0] [xp_redo]

[BuckarooBanzay]

XP Redo

Minetest mod for player experience management (xp) It adds an xp counter per player and ranks according to your xp level. The xp level, your rank and a progress bar to the next rank will show up in your hud. On every rank level up you get a award-like notification. There is also a xpgate block which, when placed under a wooden door will only allow players with a certain xp level to go through.

This mod is good for a server.

[BuckarooBanzay]

Yes, its intended to go with a reward/penalty system:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=20125&p=318949

You can build areas only accessible for players of certain rank/xp or above

What mod is this a redo of?
Please either credit the mod or say it's not actually a redo here: https://content.minetest.net/packages/B ... y/xp_redo/

[BuckarooBanzay]

Sure, i forgot to mention that.

I clarified the previous work from viewtopic.php?id=3291
Is it still a redo if the api is completely different?

Greetings, Clyde.

Hmm, that may be because i split the mod in two parts:

• Core part (xp registrations)
• Ranks part (textures, levels)

I'm guessing the error comes from the missing ranks.
You can choose between two rank-systems right now:

• https://github.com/thomasrudin-mt/xp_re ... s_military (don't know if that works anymore)
• https://github.com/thomasrudin-mt/xp_redo_ranks_ores (installed, and works on pandorabox)

Sorry for the lack of documentation, i added and fixed a lot of stuff but haven't taken the time to document that properly... :/

[Clyde]

Seem's you're right, with the second part of the mod, it works without crash.

Greetings, Clyde.

Hello!
Every player love this mod me too!

My players told me that when they hit a Skeleton or a Scorpion they recive no xp. Other mobs like eg. animals, sandman or oerkkie works.

Scorpion fron Nathan [1]
Skeleton from Saturn [2]

I've had a look at the code but no clue where to change or add something.
Please bring some light into it or some advice, thanks!

I _think_ it only works if the `entity.on_punch` method is available, which might only be the case with mobs_redo :/
Relevant code-part: https://github.com/mt-mods/xp_redo/blob ... bs.lua#L32

(it's been a while since i worked on this mod though, it is one of my first ones and it might need some maintenance here and there, or even a rewrite ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

[rabenkind]

Hello!

Thanks for your reply.

The solution was indeed simple. I simply entered this mods as optional mod (dependency) for xp_redo. That way the entities are "registered" (the table is read) and then it counts the xp.

ps. Sorry for my bad explanation but writing in english is difficult for an old german guy like me. ;-)
