Today I am going to do a live broadcast on my YT channel to do the squirrel petz and start the arboreal behaviour in mobkit. Or maybe a oak cool tree, I do not know :-D

At 22:00 UTC +2 more or less

[runs]

A player of mine asked, if you could make tamable squirrels that run up and down trees?

I have the squirrel operative. I just need to do the arboreal behavior. :-)

[runs]

:-D

[runs]

I finally got the squirrels to climb the treetops, and even jump between branches.
So I'll check it out some more and get it up here soon. :-)

[Bastrabun]

Awesome! I tried to watch the stream last night but fell asleep before it started :D

[runs]

v13.1

Squirrel often climb pass through the treetops. They seem do not stop climbing in the air.

Minetest 5.2, Mapgen v6, I only enabled mobkit and petz.

Oh, lovable squirrel or whatever!!!

running petz on a server, I've been trying to bring down the system load of the mod. It's fine in singleplayer.

I see two main bottlenecks, in api_spawn.lua you register_globalstep and then check for a node to spawn a mob on every step; I think this could be toned down a little by adding a timer like in the example here https://dev.minetest.net/minetest.register_globalstep

Then in api_on_step.lua for every server step you run (assuming every option is set to true)
petz.init_tamagochi_timer(self)
petz.pregnant_timer(self, dtime)
petz.growth_timer(self, dtime)
petz.gallop(self, dtime)
petz.dreamcatcher_save_metadata(self)

I'm still digging through the code, but is it crucial these things are called every server step?

Just some suggestions, I'm an absolute beginner in lua.

[runs]

v13.3
- Fix: Grizzly and Lion do not damage player.

[runs]

v13.4
- Some organization of the files of the mod.

[runs]

v13.5
- Added a smoke particle effect when a mob died. It can be disable as a setting.

Runs - best mobmod IMHO by far.

Can you (or anyone else) tell me how to disable everything but the peaceful animals for my kids? I would prefer if the monsters and gruesome things didn't even show up in the inventory in creative mode.

Better yet, maybe a lite version with less extras? Just a few farm animals that you can pen up and feed basic grass or wheat and reproduce, maybe a dog and/or cat and a few peaceable wild animals (chimps, squirrels) for watching?

Thanks!

You can do a lot of things:
- Put "disable_monsters = true" in 'petz.conf'.
- The first list in 'petz.conf' is a list of mobs to appear in inventory/spawn, remove the petz you do not want from it.
- Optionally you can put extra lines to disable petz individually:

Code: Select all

lion_disable_spawn = true

[runs]

Well, I wanted to inform you that after a year and a half Petz has been crowned the Top Mod of the Mobs, surpassing the respectable and popular other mod by one position.

Unfortunately someone maybe got very nervous and not even 24 hours passed, that now Petz is in the last positions. It might be a coincidence, who knows?

Officially Petz has died of success. :-D

I tried to mess with that, but things kept showing up in the inventory (especially the werewolf, for some reason).

I'll keep trying, thanks!
