##### MapGen
|
|
|
|
I did *not* fix Snow's mapgen issue with "PlantLife" (another great, Minetest
|
|
standard) based mods. Mapgen stuff is far beyond my current skill level.
|
|
What little changes I did make were to switch-out Snow nodes that Minetest
|
|
now has as defaults (dirt_with_snow, snow, ice). My thoughts being that
|
|
texture packs and other mods that may use these nodes as recipe items are more
|
|
likely to support default nodes. I also added a line above and below in the
|
|
"mapgen.lua" file indicating where to put the comment symbols to
|
|
comment-out/disable Snow's mapgen. Mods based on VanessaE's excellent
|
|
"PlantLife" mod will not produce if Snow's mapgen is active.
|
|
*Snow's mapgen is active by default.*
|
|
I did not disable it, merely indicated were the comment symbols are
|
|
to be placed. To compensate for the loss of snow resources when Snow's mapgen
|
|
is disabled, I created crafting recipes that allows players to craft more
|
|
snow, ice, and moss. This not only encourages snow builds, but also allows
|
|
the players to create snow biomes where they want and whatever size they are
|
|
willing to make them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Fixed
|
|
* Pine saplings are now replaced with tree trunks when the tree grows.
|
|
* Snowballs no longer pass through solid objects. Griefers can no
|
|
longer flood the interiors of builds by throwing snowballs through the
|
|
walls hoping to either leave a snowy mess inside or that a heat source
|
|
would melt the snow and flood the interior.
|
|
* Snowballs no longer destroy nodes when thrown at the sides.
|
|
* Falling snow no longer destroys nodes (same problem snowballs had).
|
|
* Snow bricks now, instead of disappearing like before, melt
|
|
into water sources.
|
|
* Christmas tree saplings once again will drop when pine needles
|
|
are harvested.
|
|
* Dirt_with_snow changes to dirt when a solid, non-light permeating
|
|
(sunlight_propagates) block is set on top of it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Changed
|
|
* All snow and ice stuff (including the stairs, slabs, panels, and
|
|
microblocks) will freeze dirt and dirt_with_grass into dirt_with_snow.
|
|
* All snow and most ice stuff will freeze water into ice, including
|
|
the stairs, slabs, panels, and microblocks. The exception is the
|
|
full-sized ice blocks will *not* freeze water into ice.
|
|
* Snow brick texture reworked and based off of the default stone brick
|
|
texture (and less purple in the grout).
|
|
* Ice stuff is now semi-transparent.
|
|
* Christmas trees now have blinking lights that give off a
|
|
low level of light.
|
|
* Christmas tree stars now give off a high level of light and the
|
|
light can be punched on or off.
|
|
* Combined default snow and snowballs. Now snow can be
|
|
thrown (left-click) or placed (right-click).
|
|
* Snow stuff now has "snow" sounds instead of "grass" sounds.
|
|
* Melting - Full-sized snow blocks, snow brick, snow cobble, and ice
|
|
will melt into water sources. The down-side is this makes a big,
|
|
permanent mess. The up-side, this is a convenient way to carry water,
|
|
if buckets are disabled on your server, by keeping full-sized snow
|
|
stuff and ice blocks in your inventory to, later, melt where you
|
|
need water.
|
|
* Melting - Partial and small-sized blocks like snow (snowballs),
|
|
basic stairs and slabs for snow stuff and ice, and circular saw-made
|
|
snow stuff and ice things will melt into a water source for 2 seconds,
|
|
then switch from a water source to flowing water, and after a moment
|
|
the flowing water dries-up (small, temporary mess).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
##### Added
|
|
* New block-type: "Snow Cobble". Just like regular cobble from regular
|
|
stone, snow cobble comes from digging snow blocks.
|
|
* All snow and ice blocks can be crafted into basic slabs and stairs.
|
|
The default slabs stack and change back into full-sized blocks
|
|
("More Blocks" slabs won't do this).
|
|
* Soft dependency on a recent release Calinou's MoreBlocks so all
|
|
snow and ice blocks are compatible with the circular saw. If you don't
|
|
have MoreBlocks installed, Snow will ignore the code for those fancy
|
|
blocks and use basic stairs and slabs instead.
|
|
* All snow and ice stuff works with the screwdriver.
|
|
* Crafting, recycling, and cooking recipes for snow blocks,
|
|
ice, and moss.
|
|
* Snow bricks craft-recycle back into 4 snow blocks.
|
|
* 2 snow blocks craft into 3 snow blocks. This is to make up
|
|
for when the mapgen for snow biomes is disabled.
|
|
* 2 snow cobble craft-recycle into 3 snow blocks.
|
|
* 4 pine needles craft into 1 moss
|
|
* Snow blocks, snow cobble, and snow bricks can be cooked in a
|
|
furnace to make ice.
|
|
* Snowballs can be thrown (left-click) to build up layers. After the
|
|
11th layer, the bottom 9 layers change into a snow block. At a very
|
|
close distance, throwing snowballs can be used as a technique to
|
|
build-up gradual slopes. If you have lots and lots of snow balls,
|
|
with rapid-fire throwing, you can, very briefly, "white-out" another
|
|
player's view if your aim is good enough to hit them in the face.
|
|
* Snowballs can be placed (right-click) but will not stack into
|
|
multiple layers. Just one layer only. Placing snow is more reliable
|
|
and accurate than throwing snow from a distance. By placing snow,
|
|
players are able to create their own, personal, snow biomes.
|
|
* Vertical clearance check for tree growth. The nine blocks above the
|
|
spot where the sapling is placed must be free and clear of all
|
|
obstructions or else the sapling will not be allowed to grow.
|
|
Griefers could place the saplings in builds and when the tree grows
|
|
it may not destroy nodes but it fills the available air space leaving
|
|
a mess for the build's owner to clean-up. Now the trees will only grow
|
|
inside if there is 9, free-and-clear spaces from floor to ceiling.
|
|
Because pine trees (and Christmas trees) will grow on any solid surface,
|
|
their saplings are handy to take with you when deep mining. Just before
|
|
you run out of tool wood, dig out a space large enough for a tree to
|
|
grow, plant a pine or Christmas tree sapling then place 2 torches on
|
|
either side, right next to the sapling. After the tree grows harvest
|
|
the trunk for tool wood, the leaves for short-run fuel in the furnace
|
|
and for saplings to renew your tool wood supply again.
|
|
* Aliases to help make WorldEdit and "give" commands easier:
|
|
|
|
|
|
"default_snow" = "default:snow"
|
|
"snowball" = "default:snow"
|
|
"snowballs" = "default:snow"
|
|
"snow_ball" = "default:snow"
|
|
"ice" = "default:ice"
|
|
"default_ice" = "default:ice"
|
|
"dirtwithsnow" = "default:dirt_with_snow"
|
|
"snowdirt" = "default:dirt_with_snow"
|
|
"snowydirt" = "default:dirt_with_snow"
|
|
"snowblocks" = "default:snowblock"
|
|
"snowbrick" = "snow:snow_brick"
|
|
"bricksnow" = "snow:snow_brick"
|
|
"snowbricks" = "snow:snow_brick"
|
|
"snowybricks" = "snow:snow_brick"
|
|
"snowcobble" = "snow:snow_cobble"
|
|
"snowycobble" = "snow:snow_cobble"
|
|
"cobblesnow" = "snow:snow_cobble"

TODO

|
|
|
Falling Snow:
|
|
* Add code to prevent snowfall from depositing snow on or near torches,
|
|
active furnaces, and lava.
|
|
|
|
* Add code to prevent snowfall from depositing snow on
|
|
'walkable = false' defined nodes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sled:
|
|
* Figure out why the player avatars remain in a seated position,
|
|
even after getting off the sled, if they flew while on the sled.
|
|
'default.player_set_animation', where is a better explanation for this and what
|
|
are it's available options?
