I'm too lazy to check, it wasn't posted here before
Elevator - not as in minecraft, but as moving platform... maybe using code from UFO, boats or carts
We can put rail on wall (vertical, maybe horizontal too), and platform will be moving with us...

- "How do you select which area you want to be saved?"
by walking , so everythink what you see (and its yours = you are owner of land) will be automatically saved to your pc.
start/stop recording: with command?

Saving everything might be possible. Local commands don't work with the current LUA interface. And your client has no idea which land you own :-) It's something that needs to be done at the c++ level.
Some people seem to have modified their clients so that they can more or less fly without the fly priv.

Is it possible to save loaded (in cache) terrain as world file?

Someone needs to make TNT that only has a horizontal blast, for clearing floors and stuff

Idea: Instant house, wall, monument or something else.

I think it can "grow"/"appear" like trees.

In theory, the L-System tree generation code could be abused to spawn whole buildings, big or small, as long as they only need a max of three materials and the shape can be reduced to a series of turtle commands.

A system to protect an area, only if the owner is not connected to the server; if you are connected you protect the area alone.

[REQUEST] make a chatcommand reset the global map to a predefined map, maybe addon for worldedit.
make sure it resets the WHOLE map, not just the loaded chunks. could be done with python to replace a file, but this needs to be done in-game.

You can use Python+SQLite to do anything you want with the file. It won't cause issues. Read below:

When any process wants to write, it must lock the entire database file for the duration of its update. But that normally only takes a few milliseconds. Other processes just wait on the writer to finish then continue about their business. Other embedded SQL database engines typically only allow a single process to connect to the database at once.

So basically, i want to make a python program to replace a file? That doesn't sound too hard...
But what about for only part of a map?

[jojoa1997]

could someone make a mod that adds mud and dry mud. i want to build a quick shelter but dirt just doesnt seem sensible so i thought why not mud. Then i remembered this game doesnt have mud. the one thing that it must have is a easy recipe that you can make from the begining

has anyone taken up this project. also mud would be like a liquid that you either have to cook ar place on dry land to get dry mud.

I was working on this, got a TON of progress done on it..... AND
My SD card corrupted itself, lost a ton of work files, and all my in-progress mod files.


SUPER PISSED.

I'll get around to finishing this soon.

Any news?

[Traxie21]

Yeah.. It noe dries into dried mud, but I have been unable to make sandmud spawn properly. ATM it will replace every sand block with sandmud, which changes into normal mud on contact with dirt....

It is potentially catostrophic to any world.

[jojoa1997]

have it dry when it touches any block but mud and water

[Traxie21]

Uhh
Impossible, because it would then be constantly drying and then refreshing. Btw, water clears normal mud.

[chase programer]

i want somene to make an rc mod with planes like the one from minecraft the lager

[Sokomine]

A mod within minetest_game which supplies library functions for other mods would be welcome. Functions it ought to have:
- general one that checks if a node is owned or not (including all known methods of protection); VanessaEs homedecor mod has such a function
- save and restore table between server restarts
- function that adds a furnace with given textures, speed and whatever else is needed; there are several divergent copies of furnaces out there already
- other things which might be required by several mods

[Maour]

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/650 ... p-mod-v12/

I made a mod like this for fun and for learning modding,I never planed to release it,but if you want I can upload it and post it,but it need better textures and it dont have ingots/bricks.
PS= I'm not a native english speaker,so my english has a lot of typos and errors

[jojoa1997]

could someone make a mod where you can zoom your sight like looking through binoculars but instead using a key to do it.

You won't see that anytime soon (impossible with the current mod API)

[Likwid H-Craft]

I think if we, add some C++ it can be done.

But we can always make a item, have a hud pop up, to make it look zoomish.
