FF Goodie Bags

Description:
This mod adds 4 goodie bags that give random items. Now I know what you're thinking. "How is this any different from the lucky blocks mod?" Well the answer is that this mod is not really meant for your average user. It's meant for server admins, sub games, or players looking to create their own Minetest experience by adding items to the bags and choosing how the goodie bags can be obtained, such as killing hostile mobs. I created this mod out of necessity for my sub game I'm working on, Floating Factories.

Just like how Minecraft has a lucky block mod, it also has a loot bag mod. The purpose is that the goodie bags can be given as rewards for tasks, quests, etc. There are no negatives when opening a goodie bag except for getting unwanted items. The lucky block mod on the other hand is meant to be more of a gamble and for entertainment purposes.

Goodie Bags:



There are 4 goodie bag colors and 5 item pools. 1 pool is a general pool that all bags can select items from. It's generally the largest. The 4 other pools are exclusive to each goodie bag color. The general pool must always have minimum 1 item or the bags will not open. This is to ensure each bag has at least 1 item to give. The other pools have no minimum.

Each bag randomly picks 1 - 3 items from the item pools. Each of those items randomly picks 1 - 10 items for each stack. There is a 1 in 15 chance that the item selected will be from the bag's exclusive item pool otherwise the item will be from the general pool.

By default, I've created a few item pools for some of the common mods in the Minetest the Game sub game. Entire mods can be toggled on or off via the ff_goodie_bags.conf file. They are useful for testing the mod and as an example for making your own lists.

More Screenshots:
Example of the HUD that shows after opening a bag. The HUD stays on screen for 4 seconds before disappearing.

Crafting Recipes:
There are no crafting recipes as there's no real way to balance goodie bags for everyone. Each server, sub game, or player has their own way of knowing what would be balanced and fun. However, the bags can be obtained in creative mode for testing purposes.

has

Code: Select all

minetest.sound_play("ff_goodie_bags_Coin01", {pos, max_hear_distance = 2, gain = 1.0,})

but should have

Code: Select all

minetest.sound_play("ff_goodie_bags_Coin01", {pos=pos, max_hear_distance = 2, gain = 1.0,})

Thank you for pointing this out FreeGamers. I know it's 6 months late, but I've made the fix to the project.

Yep, I used this as a major part for a christmas modpack that used presents as the goodie bags and replaced the sound effect with a sleigh-bell jingle. It worked out very nicely. So, thanks.
