Description:
This mod adds 5 staff types to Minetest. They were originally created for a sub game I'm working on, Floating Factories, but I decided segmenting what I've been making for the sub game makes more sense than keeping it all together. Doing this will hopefully encourage more people to use it, report bugs, and help fix code. It also makes it usable without Floating Factories.
Staff Types:
Staff of Structure - Similar to the Builder's Wand mod in Minecraft. It can place nodes in bulk when clicking on a node and having that same node that was clicked in your inventory. Placement continues to adjacent blocks allowing for layers of the same nodes to be placed with one click.
Staff of Earth - Turns default:dirt to default:dirt_with_grass, grows default:grass_1 on default:dirt_with_grass blocks, and duplicates any node that is part of the "flora" group.
Staff of Ice - Turns default:water_source into default:ice.
Staff of Magma - Turns default:cobble into default:lava_source.
Staff of Lightning - Casts a powerful lightning bolt. Don't stand too close where you click!

The blue, red, green, and yellow gems are a rare drop from default:desert_sand.
The Staff of Structure does not take into account node rotation. I would like to add this as a feature in the future.
The Staff of Structure does not work on any node that is part of the attached_node group. Otherwise it could be used to place them in normally impossible positions.
In creative mode the Staff of Structure does not wear out and does not consume blocks from the inventory.

Not seeing the lightning rod in creative nor craftible. :( Was really hyped up over it so I could zap everyone.
You need to have the lightning mod installed (it's made by someone else). It's an optional dependency in case people don't want that mod. I'll consider other ideas for staffs, but at the moment I'm focusing on my sub game, Floating Factories. I'm making the parts that I feel are missing and not found in other mods. It's going to be a sky block survival game with a focus on machines and automation.
Could you make it so the Staff of Structure ignores grass and flower nodes when duplicating? They get in the way whenever I try to build on the ground.
