This is partly a workaround for a bug.
Climbs with continuous power rails were failing often due to
unexplained losses of speed leading to a reversal of direction.
The lack of acceleration on climbs meant that lost speed was not
regained.
Keeping cart speed at maximum on climbs helps reduce the chance of
reversals.
This also allows players to slowly accelerate up to full speed on a
climb without needing a horizontal run-up to reach full speed first.
It may not be possible to build the horizontal sections needed, or,
if players are replacing a previous carts mod their track
constructions, bridges, tunnels etc. will often not have the
horizontal sections needed.
Players will also sometimes need to place and enter a cart on a slope
and be able to climb.
- Improve arms attachment
The arm bones were at an angle, so that the bones were difficult
to orient correctly, as unintuitive combinations of angles
would be needed to get the default orientation, or any other
acceptable orientation. Moreover, a simple rotation of the arm,
e.g. forward, would require all angles to be adapted, instead
of just one.
The ends of the arms bones were moved from touching the body, to
the center of the arm, at an equal distance from the sides of the
arm and the shoulder; the arm bone is now in the center of the arm.
- Fix body rotation
The body was rotated 180° while the rest wasn't, leading to
strange results when setting bone positions manually.
- Fix default rotation of limbs (manually positioning them in
their default position would require an 180° rotation).
Is is not know how this was fixed. Maybe just because the
model was re-exported.
- The bone of the cape was moved to the center of the cape (it was
at the edge). For some reason this fixed the 180° rotation of the
cape when it was manually positioned (similar to previous issue).
The changes above fix most of the issues mentioned in #1376
- Add a player-model-specific workaround for the problem described in:
https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/2813#issuecomment-198796927https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/pull/1392#issuecomment-261669915
During walking, attached tools would randomly switch hands. Walking also
happens to be the only animation where the body does not move. Making the
body move an imperceptible amount makes the issue disappear for the player
model.
- Fix body vertex group: it no longer includes parts of arms and legs
Thanks to @stujones11 for these last two changes.
This code adds the key concept to minetest_game, and integrates it
with lockable nodes. Currently supported lockable items are the Steel
Door, the Steel Trapdoor, and the Locked Chest.
The goal of this modification is to introduce a fine-grained multi-
player permission system that is intuitive and usable without any
console or chat commands, and doesn't require extra privileges to
be granted or setup. Keys can also physically be conveyed to other
players, adding to gameplay and adding some personality that is
preferable to console commands or editing formspecs.
A skeleton key can be crafted with 1 gold ingot. Skeleton keys can
then be matched to a lockable node by right-clicking the skeleton
key on a lockable node, which changes the skeleton key to a "key".
Gold was chosen as it's currently a not-so very useful item, and
therefore it's likely that players have some, but aren't really
using it for any purpose.
This key can subsequently used by any player to open or access that
lockable node, including retrieving items from Locked Chests, or
putting items in them.
They key is programmed to fit only the particular locked node it is
programmed to. This is achieved by storing a secret value in both
key and locked node. If this secret value doesn't match, the key
will not open the locked node. This allows many keys to be created
for one chest or door, but a key will only fit one node ever. The
secrets are stored in node, and item meta for the key.
If a locked node is removed, all keys that opened it are no longer
valid. Even if a new door/chest is placed in exactly the same spot,
the old keys will no longer fit that node.
Keys can be smelted back in gold ingots if they are no longer useful.
The method of storing a secret in nodemeta and itemstackmeta is secure
as there is no way for the client to create new items on the server
with a particular secret metadata value. Even if you could possible
create such an itemstack on the client, the server does not ever read
itemstackmeta from a client package.
The patch adds an API that allows other nodes and nodes added by
mods to use the same keys as well. The method how to implement this
is described in game_api.txt. The mod should add 2 callbacks to it's
node definition. Example code is given.
Textures are from PixelBOX, thanks to Gambit.
This merges the current state of the well-maintained and tested
`torches` mod as I've maintained it for the last 6 months.
This started out as a thorough cleanup of 3D torches by blockmen,
where some of the initial code still remains.
The models were redone entirely from scratch and have been extensively
tested with dozens of animated textures converted with mcimport,
and look a lot better than the original 3D Torches mod.
The ceiling torch is retained and functional. The `wieldlight`
addition that the torches mod has was removed, since it relies
on wieldview to look decent. This can stay external mod code.
I've opted to move the torch nodes to a separate file. It's not
a lot of code but nodes.lua is already huge, and I wanted to
retain the copyright header and some of the readme.txt notes,
and this was the easiest way of doing it.
This code passes "default:torch" to nodes with on_rightclick,
fixing problems with itemframes. Essentially it has a more
elaborate item_place() routine to make sure we're not passing
the wall torch to nodes that may display it.
The ceiling torch is a separate model and not the same as the
floor model. That does mean that there are 3 models in this
mod.
This is all the working code from SmallJoker's boost_cart, poored into
a more suitable form for minetest_game.
- Mesecons and moreores stuff was removed entirely.
- Textures were all renamed and moved out of default/
- Updated license, readme.txt, attribution
- Changed code license to MIT, left artwork at CC0
- removed default:rail and made aliases for it
- :carts:rail is now carts:rail.
- localized entity def
- removed copper rail entirely
- startstop rail was removed, as well as detector rail
- remodeled to b3d using stujones11 excellent blend model, but sizes
of cart adjusted to make pixel sizes consistent (0.625) everywhere.
- slightly more complex texture map for the cart (front/side visibly
different)
- rail parameters are passed as a separate def table, and stored in
a private list. This avoids having to call `get_meta` on every
node. In return, we need the node name, though.
- adds metal sounds (based on default metal sound function) and
cart moving sound.
- reduced cart speeds to max 7, 5 by pushing.
- Added on_step() rail event handler, gets called when a cart is on
a rail.
- Added various rebased updates from upstream (thanks Krock)
- Included a fix that removes the 'reverse jiggle' when stopping.
- Included reworked textures by sofar.
The mod namespace is still public, but I'm NOT declaring it an API. I'd
rather see it localized instead, for now. Any public interface in this
code is *experimental* at best, and should be considered non-stable and
unsupported for now.
Currently all minetest_game PR's are failing travis since the
upstream luacheck now also warns about whitespace issues, and
there are a few of those in the code. This fixes all of them
so we can yet again rely on luacheck.
With mip-mapping enabled, some GPUs cause a visual bug with indexed
textures that use alpha. This bug has been present for a while but
not noticed before. All indexed alpha textures must now be converted
to RGBA, to start this process we revert some textures converted to
indexed in the recent commit af3c918.
When placing boats, align the boat with the player's yaw.
Align drivers yaw with boat yaw when entering a boat, would previously turn
boat yaw by player's yaw + 90° to the right.
Make lava cooling ABM use a new group 'group:cools_lava'.
Nodes other than water can cool lava. We assume snowblock and ice melt,
turn to water and cool lava.
Leave 'group:water' present temporarily to not break mod liquids.
This fixes all cases where the color profile was broken, and
libpng warns about. It also makes almost all textures indexed
instead of RGB where possible (textures that don't have
semi-transparent pixels).
A deeper, darker level of leaves is created by tiling the texture
2 by 2, reducing brightness and offsetting this.
For a denser leaf appearence with the 'simple leaves' setting.
Also used for acacia bush leaves.
The purpose of this is to allow mods to be able to interact (e.g. fill up)
an empty bucket when it is used to punch a node that's not a liquid source
or when punching a custom entity (e.g. milking a cow).
- Use opaque texture for top+bottom of iron bar
- Add color variation for iron bar top/bottom
- Add paramat's texture to credits
- Update license info for paramat's textures
This plays when damage is disabled, an engine bug.
We can remove it because both sounds are identical, now it is removed
the 'player damage' sound still plays when falling damage is taken.
To allow mapgen bushes in green-grass and savanna grasslands.
Nodes for a generic bush and an acacia bush.
Stem nodes are craftable to a single wood node to provide a small
amount of wood resource in grasslands.
Fuel times are that of corresponding 'wood' nodes, 1/4 that of
corresponding tree nodes.
No leafdecay to enable use as hedges or without a nearby tree trunk.
Uses 'default leaves simple' texture for extra visual thickness.
Use 'player damage' sound for both damage and falling damage.
Gains for damage sounds are set in the engine, however we cannot change
those gains as other subgames already use damage sounds based on those
gains.
Sound has been re-edited from source and normalised to 0 dB for
maximum volume, which is only just enough because gain is fixed at 0.5
in the engine.
