Mods in the pack

moreblocks

Defines a bunch of new kinds of nodes. Provides an API for creating variants of some nodes.

stairsplus

Allows the creation of 49 new shapes for registered nodes.

stairsplus_legacy

Stairsplus registrations for various mods which were formerly done automatically as part of moreblocks.

invsaw

Adds a button in unified_inventory that allows you to use the circular saw interface if you are playing creatively, or have a circular saw item in your inventory and have the right priv (interact, by default).

Invsaw was taken from cheapie's invsaw mod, which itself borrowed heavily from an older version of this mod. Flux decided to just add it here because it needed to be fully rewritten to be compatible w/ their modifications to the stairsplus API.

Documentation

For players

Use of a decent inventory manager (e.g. unified_inventory or i3) will help you figure out how to craft various nodes.

For admins

Minetest Version compatibility

More Blocks is currently primarily tested with Minetest 5.5.0+. It may or may not work with newer or older versions. Issues arising in older versions will generally not be fixed.

Legacy mode

The 3.0.0 release of moreblocks introduces a "legacy" mode, which is on by default, and is meant to allow new servers to not commit to creating as many nodes as older versions, while not breaking anything on existing servers. See settingtypes.txt for available settings.

By defaulthe 3.0.0 release disables certain recipe overrides that were part of moreblocks 2.*. To re-enable them, set moreblocks_legacy_recipes.enabled = true.

Settings

See settingtypes.txt for available settings.

Dependencies

Moreblocks and stairsplus do not have hard dependencies on other mods. Invsaw depends on unified_inventory and stairsplus.

Compatability

Moreblocks currently supports resources from a number of mods and minetest_game. Without these installed, some things may not be craftable, may have low-quality textures, or may not have "node sounds" registered. If available, resources will be used from bucket, default, rhotator, screwdriver, and vessels.

If the stairsplus_legacy mod is enabled, stairsplus nodes will automatically be registered for the following mods, if they are available: basic_materials, default, farming, gloopblocks, prefab, technic, and wool.
