Minetest Lua Modding API Reference 0.4.dev
|
|
==========================================
|
|
More information at http://c55.me/minetest/
|
|
|
|
Introduction
|
|
-------------
|
|
Content and functionality can be added to Minetest 0.4 by using Lua
|
|
scripting in run-time loaded mods.
|
|
|
|
A mod is a self-contained bunch of scripts, textures and other related
|
|
things that is loaded by and interfaces with Minetest.
|
|
|
|
Mods are contained and ran solely on the server side. Definitions and media
|
|
files are automatically transferred to the client.
|
|
|
|
If you see a deficiency in the API, feel free to attempt to add the
|
|
functionality in the engine and API. You can send such improvements as
|
|
source code patches to <celeron55@gmail.com>.
|
|
|
|
Programming in Lua
|
|
-------------------
|
|
If you have any difficulty in understanding this, please read:
|
|
http://www.lua.org/pil/
|
|
|
|
Startup
|
|
--------
|
|
Mods are loaded during server startup from the mod load paths by running
|
|
the init.lua scripts in a shared environment.
|
|
|
|
Mod load path
|
|
-------------
|
|
Generic:
|
|
$path_share/games/gameid/mods/
|
|
$path_share/mods/gameid/
|
|
$path_user/games/gameid/mods/
|
|
$path_user/mods/gameid/ <-- User-installed mods
|
|
$worldpath/worldmods/
|
|
|
|
In a run-in-place version (eg. the distributed windows version):
|
|
minetest-0.4.x/games/gameid/mods/
|
|
minetest-0.4.x/mods/gameid/ <-- User-installed mods
|
|
minetest-0.4.x/worlds/worldname/worldmods/
|
|
|
|
On an installed version on linux:
|
|
/usr/share/minetest/games/gameid/mods/
|
|
~/.minetest/mods/gameid/ <-- User-installed mods
|
|
~/.minetest/worlds/worldname/worldmods
|
|
|
|
Mod load path for world-specific games
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
It is possible to include a game in a world; in this case, no mods or
|
|
games are loaded or checked from anywhere else.
|
|
|
|
This is useful for eg. adventure worlds.
|
|
|
|
This happens if the following directory exists:
|
|
$world/game/
|
|
|
|
Mods should be then be placed in:
|
|
$world/game/mods/
|
|
|
|
Modpack support
|
|
----------------
|
|
Mods can be put in a subdirectory, if the parent directory, which otherwise
|
|
should be a mod, contains a file named modpack.txt. This file shall be
|
|
empty, except for lines starting with #, which are comments.
|
|
|
|
Mod directory structure
|
|
------------------------
|
|
mods
|
|
|-- modname
|
|
| |-- depends.txt
|
|
| |-- init.lua
|
|
| |-- textures
|
|
| | |-- modname_stuff.png
|
|
| | `-- modname_something_else.png
|
|
| |-- sounds
|
|
| |-- media
|
|
| `-- <custom data>
|
|
`-- another
|
|
|
|
modname:
|
|
The location of this directory can be fetched by using
|
|
minetest.get_modpath(modname)
|
|
|
|
depends.txt:
|
|
List of mods that have to be loaded before loading this mod.
|
|
A single line contains a single modname.
|
|
|
|
init.lua:
|
|
The main Lua script. Running this script should register everything it
|
|
wants to register. Subsequent execution depends on minetest calling the
|
|
registered callbacks.
|
|
|
|
minetest.setting_get(name) and minetest.setting_getbool(name) can be used
|
|
to read custom or existing settings at load time, if necessary.
|
|
|
|
textures, sounds, media:
|
|
Media files (textures, sounds, whatever) that will be transferred to the
|
|
client and will be available for use by the mod.
|
|
|
|
Naming convention for registered textual names
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
Registered names should generally be in this format:
|
|
"modname:<whatever>" (<whatever> can have characters a-zA-Z0-9_)
|
|
|
|
This is to prevent conflicting names from corrupting maps and is
|
|
enforced by the mod loader.
|
|
|
|
Example: mod "experimental", ideal item/node/entity name "tnt":
|
|
-> the name should be "experimental:tnt".
|
|
|
|
Enforcement can be overridden by prefixing the name with ":". This can
|
|
be used for overriding the registrations of some other mod.
|
|
|
|
Example: Any mod can redefine experimental:tnt by using the name
|
|
":experimental:tnt" when registering it.
|
|
(also that mod is required to have "experimental" as a dependency)
|
|
|
|
The ":" prefix can also be used for maintaining backwards compatibility.
|
|
|
|
Aliases
|
|
-------
|
|
Aliases can be added by using minetest.register_alias(name, convert_to)
|
|
|
|
This will make Minetest to convert things called name to things called
|
|
convert_to.
|
|
|
|
This can be used for maintaining backwards compatibility.
|
|
|
|
This can be also used for setting quick access names for things, eg. if
|
|
you have an item called epiclylongmodname:stuff, you could do
|
|
minetest.register_alias("stuff", "epiclylongmodname:stuff")
|
|
and be able to use "/giveme stuff".
|
|
|
|
Textures
|
|
--------
|
|
Mods should generally prefix their textures with modname_, eg. given
|
|
the mod name "foomod", a texture could be called
|
|
"foomod_foothing.png"
|
|
|
|
Textures are referred to by their complete name, or alternatively by
|
|
stripping out the file extension:
|
|
eg. foomod_foothing.png
|
|
eg. foomod_foothing
|
|
|
|
Sounds
|
|
-------
|
|
Only OGG files are supported.
|
|
|
|
For positional playing of sounds, only single-channel (mono) files are
|
|
supported. Otherwise OpenAL will play them non-positionally.
|
|
|
|
Mods should generally prefix their sounds with modname_, eg. given
|
|
the mod name "foomod", a sound could be called
|
|
"foomod_foosound.ogg"
|
|
|
|
Sounds are referred to by their name with a dot, a single digit and the
|
|
file extension stripped out. When a sound is played, the actual sound file
|
|
is chosen randomly from the matching sounds.
|
|
|
|
When playing the sound "foomod_foosound", the sound is chosen randomly
|
|
from the available ones of the following files:
|
|
foomod_foosound.ogg
|
|
foomod_foosound.0.ogg
|
|
foomod_foosound.1.ogg
|
|
...
|
|
foomod_foosound.9.ogg
|
|
|
|
Examples of sound parameter tables:
|
|
-- Play locationless on all clients
|
|
{
|
|
gain = 1.0, -- default
|
|
}
|
|
-- Play locationless to a player
|
|
{
|
|
to_player = name,
|
|
gain = 1.0, -- default
|
|
}
|
|
-- Play in a location
|
|
{
|
|
pos = {x=1,y=2,z=3},
|
|
gain = 1.0, -- default
|
|
max_hear_distance = 32, -- default
|
|
}
|
|
-- Play connected to an object, looped
|
|
{
|
|
object = <an ObjectRef>,
|
|
gain = 1.0, -- default
|
|
max_hear_distance = 32, -- default
|
|
loop = true, -- only sounds connected to objects can be looped
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
SimpleSoundSpec:
|
|
eg. ""
|
|
eg. "default_place_node"
|
|
eg. {}
|
|
eg. {name="default_place_node"}
|
|
eg. {name="default_place_node", gain=1.0}
|
|
|
|
Registered definitions of stuff
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
Anything added using certain minetest.register_* functions get added to
|
|
the global minetest.registered_* tables.
|
|
|
|
minetest.register_entity(name, prototype table)
|
|
-> minetest.registered_entities[name]
|
|
|
|
minetest.register_node(name, node definition)
|
|
-> minetest.registered_items[name]
|
|
-> minetest.registered_nodes[name]
|
|
|
|
minetest.register_tool(name, item definition)
|
|
-> minetest.registered_items[name]
|
|
|
|
minetest.register_craftitem(name, item definition)
|
|
-> minetest.registered_items[name]
|
|
|
|
Note that in some cases you will stumble upon things that are not contained
|
|
in these tables (eg. when a mod has been removed). Always check for
|
|
existence before trying to access the fields.
|
|
|
|
Example: If you want to check the drawtype of a node, you could do:
|
|
|
|
local function get_nodedef_field(nodename, fieldname)
|
|
if not minetest.registered_nodes[nodename] then
|
|
return nil
|
|
end
|
|
return minetest.registered_nodes[nodename][fieldname]
|
|
end
|
|
local drawtype = get_nodedef_field(nodename, "drawtype")
|
|
|
|
Example: minetest.get_item_group(name, group) has been implemented as:
|
|
|
|
function minetest.get_item_group(name, group)
|
|
if not minetest.registered_items[name] or not
|
|
minetest.registered_items[name].groups[group] then
|
|
return 0
|
|
end
|
|
return minetest.registered_items[name].groups[group]
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
Nodes
|
|
------
|
|
Nodes are the bulk data of the world: cubes and other things that take the
|
|
space of a cube. Huge amounts of them are handled efficiently, but they
|
|
are quite static.
|
|
|
|
The definition of a node is stored and can be accessed by name in
|
|
minetest.registered_nodes[node.name]
|
|
See "Registered definitions of stuff".
|
|
|
|
Nodes are passed by value between Lua and the engine.
|
|
They are represented by a table:
|
|
{name="name", param1=num, param2=num}
|
|
|
|
param1 and param2 are 8 bit and 4 bit integers, respectively. The engine
|
|
uses them for certain automated functions. If you don't use these
|
|
functions, you can use them to store arbitrary values.
|
|
|
|
The functions of param1 and param2 are determined by certain fields in the
|
|
node definition:
|
|
param1 is reserved for the engine when paramtype != "none":
|
|
paramtype = "light"
|
|
^ The value stores light with and without sun in it's
|
|
upper and lower 4 bits.
|
|
param2 is reserved for the engine when any of these are used:
|
|
liquidtype == "flowing"
|
|
^ The level and some flags of the liquid is stored in param2
|
|
drawtype == "flowingliquid"
|
|
^ The drawn liquid level is read from param2
|
|
drawtype == "torchlike"
|
|
drawtype == "signlike"
|
|
paramtype2 == "wallmounted"
|
|
^ The rotation of the node is stored in param2. You can make this value
|
|
by using minetest.dir_to_wallmounted().
|
|
paramtype2 == "facedir"
|
|
^ The rotation of the node is stored in param2. Furnaces and chests are
|
|
rotated this way. Can be made by using minetest.dir_to_facedir().
|
|
|
|
Nodes can also contain extra data. See "Node Metadata".
|
|
|
|
Representations of simple things
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
Position/vector:
|
|
{x=num, y=num, z=num}
|
|
Currently the API does not provide any helper functions for addition,
|
|
subtraction and whatever; you can define those that you need yourself.
|
|
|
|
Items
|
|
------
|
|
Node (register_node):
|
|
A node from the world
|
|
Tool (register_tool):
|
|
A tool/weapon that can dig and damage things according to tool_capabilities
|
|
Craftitem (register_craftitem):
|
|
A miscellaneous item
|
|
|
|
Items and item stacks can exist in three formats:
|
|
|
|
Serialized; This is called stackstring or itemstring:
|
|
eg. 'default:dirt 5'
|
|
eg. 'default:pick_wood 21323'
|
|
eg. 'default:apple'
|
|
|
|
Table format:
|
|
eg. {name="default:dirt", count=5, wear=0, metadata=""}
|
|
^ 5 dirt nodes
|
|
eg. {name="default:pick_wood", count=1, wear=21323, metadata=""}
|
|
^ a wooden pick about 1/3 weared out
|
|
eg. {name="default:apple", count=1, wear=0, metadata=""}
|
|
^ an apple.
|
|
|
|
ItemStack:
|
|
C++ native format with many helper methods. Useful for converting between
|
|
formats. See the Class reference section for details.
|
|
|
|
When an item must be passed to a function, it can usually be in any of
|
|
these formats.
|
|
|
|
Groups
|
|
-------
|
|
In a number of places, there is a group table. Groups define the
|
|
properties of a thing (item, node, armor of entity, capabilities of
|
|
tool) in such a way that the engine and other mods can can interact with
|
|
the thing without actually knowing what the thing is.
|
|
|
|
Usage:
|
|
- Groups are stored in a table, having the group names with keys and the
|
|
group ratings as values. For example:
|
|
groups = {crumbly=3, soil=1}
|
|
^ Default dirt (soil group actually currently not defined; TODO)
|
|
groups = {crumbly=2, soil=1, level=2, outerspace=1}
|
|
^ A more special dirt-kind of thing
|
|
- Groups always have a rating associated with them. If there is no
|
|
useful meaning for a rating for an enabled group, it shall be 1.
|
|
- When not defined, the rating of a group defaults to 0. Thus when you
|
|
read groups, you must interpret nil and 0 as the same value, 0.
|
|
|
|
You can read the rating of a group for an item or a node by using
|
|
minetest.get_item_group(itemname, groupname)
|
|
|
|
Groups of items
|
|
----------------
|
|
Groups of items can define what kind of an item it is (eg. wool).
|
|
|
|
Groups of nodes
|
|
----------------
|
|
In addition to the general item things, groups are used to define whether
|
|
a node is destroyable and how long it takes to destroy by a tool.
|
|
|
|
Groups of entities
|
|
-------------------
|
|
For entities, groups are, as of now, used only for calculating damage.
|
|
|
|
object.get_armor_groups() -> a group-rating table (eg. {fleshy=3})
|
|
object.set_armor_groups({level=2, fleshy=2, cracky=2})
|
|
|
|
Groups of tools
|
|
----------------
|
|
Groups in tools define which groups of nodes and entities they are
|
|
effective towards.
|
|
|
|
Groups in crafting recipes
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
- Not implemented yet. (TODO)
|
|
- Will probably look like this:
|
|
{
|
|
output = 'food:meat_soup_raw',
|
|
recipe = {
|
|
{'group:meat'},
|
|
{'group:water'},
|
|
{'group:bowl'},
|
|
},
|
|
preserve = {'group:bowl'},
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Special groups
|
|
---------------
|
|
- immortal: Disables the group damage system for an entity
|
|
- level: Can be used to give an additional sense of progression in the game.
|
|
- A larger level will cause eg. a weapon of a lower level make much less
|
|
damage, and get weared out much faster, or not be able to get drops
|
|
from destroyed nodes.
|
|
- 0 is something that is directly accessible at the start of gameplay
|
|
- There is no upper limit
|
|
- dig_immediate: (player can always pick up node without tool wear)
|
|
- 2: node is removed without tool wear after 0.5 seconds or so
|
|
(rail, sign)
|
|
- 3: node is removed without tool wear immediately (torch)
|
|
|
|
Known damage and digging time defining groups
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
|
Valid ratings for these are 0, 1, 2 and 3, unless otherwise stated.
|
|
- crumbly: dirt, sand
|
|
- cracky: tough but crackable stuff like stone.
|
|
- snappy: something that can be cut using fine tools; eg. leaves, small
|
|
plants, wire, sheets of metal
|
|
- choppy: something that can be cut using force; eg. trees, wooden planks
|
|
- fleshy: Living things like animals and the player. This could imply
|
|
some blood effects when hitting.
|
|
- explody: Especially prone to explosions
|
|
- oddly_breakable_by_hand:
|
|
Can be added to nodes that shouldn't logically be breakable by the
|
|
hand but are. Somewhat similar to dig_immediate, but times are more
|
|
like {[1]=3.50,[2]=2.00,[3]=0.70} and this does not override the
|
|
speed of a tool if the tool can dig at a faster speed than this
|
|
suggests for the hand.
|
|
|
|
Examples of custom groups
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
Item groups are often used for defining, well, //groups of items//.
|
|
- meat: any meat-kind of a thing (rating might define the size or healing
|
|
ability or be irrelevant - it is not defined as of yet)
|
|
- eatable: anything that can be eaten. Rating might define HP gain in half
|
|
hearts.
|
|
- flammable: can be set on fire. Rating might define the intensity of the
|
|
fire, affecting eg. the speed of the spreading of an open fire.
|
|
- wool: any wool (any origin, any color)
|
|
- metal: any metal
|
|
- weapon: any weapon
|
|
- heavy: anything considerably heavy
|
|
|
|
Digging time calculation specifics
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
Groups such as **crumbly**, **cracky** and **snappy** are used for this
|
|
purpose. Rating is 1, 2 or 3. A higher rating for such a group implies
|
|
faster digging time.
|
|
|
|
The **level** group is used to limit the toughness of nodes a tool can dig
|
|
and to scale the digging times / damage to a greater extent.
|
|
|
|
^ PLEASE DO UNDERSTAND THIS, otherwise you cannot use the system to it's
|
|
full potential.
|
|
|
|
Tools define their properties by a list of parameters for groups. They
|
|
cannot dig other groups; thus it is important to use a standard bunch of
|
|
groups to enable interaction with tools.
|
|
|
|
**Tools define:**
|
|
* Full punch interval
|
|
* Maximum drop level
|
|
* For an arbitrary list of groups:
|
|
* Uses (until the tool breaks)
|
|
* Maximum level (usually 0, 1, 2 or 3)
|
|
* Digging times
|
|
|
|
**Full punch interval**:
|
|
When used as a weapon, the tool will do full damage if this time is spent
|
|
between punches. If eg. half the time is spent, the tool will do half
|
|
damage.
|
|
|
|
**Maximum drop level**
|
|
Suggests the maximum level of node, when dug with the tool, that will drop
|
|
it's useful item. (eg. iron ore to drop a lump of iron).
|
|
- This is not automated; it is the responsibility of the node definition
|
|
to implement this
|
|
|
|
**Uses**
|
|
Determines how many uses the tool has when it is used for digging a node,
|
|
of this group, of the maximum level. For lower leveled nodes, the use count
|
|
is multiplied by 3^leveldiff.
|
|
- uses=10, leveldiff=0 -> actual uses: 10
|
|
- uses=10, leveldiff=1 -> actual uses: 30
|
|
- uses=10, leveldiff=2 -> actual uses: 90
|
|
|
|
**Maximum level**
|
|
Tells what is the maximum level of a node of this group that the tool will
|
|
be able to dig.
|
|
|
|
**Digging times**
|
|
List of digging times for different ratings of the group, for nodes of the
|
|
maximum level.
|
|
* For example, as a lua table, ''times={2=2.00, 3=0.70}''. This would
|
|
result in the tool to be able to dig nodes that have a rating of 2 or 3
|
|
for this group, and unable to dig the rating 1, which is the toughest.
|
|
Unless there is a matching group that enables digging otherwise.
|
|
* For entities, damage equals the amount of nodes dug in the time spent
|
|
between hits, with a maximum time of ''full_punch_interval''.
|
|
|
|
Example definition of the capabilities of a tool
|
|
-------------------------------------------------
|
|
tool_capabilities = {
|
|
full_punch_interval=1.5,
|
|
max_drop_level=1,
|
|
groupcaps={
|
|
crumbly={maxlevel=2, uses=20, times={[1]=1.60, [2]=1.20, [3]=0.80}}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
This makes the tool be able to dig nodes that fullfill both of these:
|
|
- Have the **crumbly** group
|
|
- Have a **level** group less or equal to 2
|
|
|
|
Table of resulting digging times:
|
|
crumbly 0 1 2 3 4 <- level
|
|
-> 0 - - - - -
|
|
1 0.80 1.60 1.60 - -
|
|
2 0.60 1.20 1.20 - -
|
|
3 0.40 0.80 0.80 - -
|
|
|
|
level diff: 2 1 0 -1 -2
|
|
|
|
Table of resulting tool uses:
|
|
-> 0 - - - - -
|
|
1 180 60 20 - -
|
|
2 180 60 20 - -
|
|
3 180 60 20 - -
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
- At crumbly=0, the node is not diggable.
|
|
- At crumbly=3, the level difference digging time divider kicks in and makes
|
|
easy nodes to be quickly breakable.

Entity damage mechanism
|
|
------------------------
|
|
Damage calculation:
|
|
- Take the time spent after the last hit
|
|
- Limit time to full_punch_interval
|
|
- Take the damage groups and imagine a bunch of nodes that have them
|
|
- Damage in HP is the amount of nodes destroyed in this time.
|
|
|
|
Client predicts damage based on damage groups. Because of this, it is able to
|
|
give an immediate response when an entity is damaged or dies; the response is
|
|
pre-defined somehow (eg. by defining a sprite animation) (not implemented;
|
|
TODO).
|
|
- Currently a smoke puff will appear when an entity dies.
|
|
|
|
The group **immortal** completely disables normal damage.
|
|
|
|
Entities can define a special armor group, which is **punch_operable**. This
|
|
group disables the regular damage mechanism for players punching it by hand or
|
|
a non-tool item, so that it can do something else than take damage.
|
|
|
|
On the Lua side, every punch calls ''entity:on_punch(puncher,
|
|
time_from_last_punch, tool_capabilities, direction)''. This should never be
|
|
called directly, because damage is usually not handled by the entity itself.
|
|
* ''puncher'' is the object performing the punch. Can be nil. Should never be
|
|
accessed unless absolutely required, to encourage interoperability.
|
|
* ''time_from_last_punch'' is time from last punch (by puncher) or nil.
|
|
* ''tool_capabilities'' can be nil.
|
|
* ''direction'' is a unit vector, pointing from the source of the punch to
|
|
the punched object.
|
|
|
|
To punch an entity/object in Lua, call ''object:punch(puncher,
|
|
time_from_last_punch, tool_capabilities, direction)''.
|
|
* Return value is tool wear.
|
|
* Parameters are equal to the above callback.
|
|
* If ''direction'' is nil and ''puncher'' is not nil, ''direction'' will be
|
|
automatically filled in based on the location of ''puncher''.

Node Metadata
|
|
-------------
|
|
The instance of a node in the world normally only contains the three values
|
|
mentioned in "Nodes". However, it is possible to insert extra data into a
|
|
node. It is called "node metadata"; See "NodeMetaRef".
|
|
|
|
Metadata contains two things:
|
|
- A key-value store
|
|
- An inventory
|
|
|
|
Some of the values in the key-value store are handled specially:
|
|
- formspec: Defines a right-click inventory menu. See "Formspec".
|
|
- infotext: Text shown on the screen when the node is pointed at
|
|
|
|
Example stuff:
|
|
|
|
local meta = minetest.env:get_meta(pos)
|
|
meta:set_string("formspec",
|
|
"invsize[8,9;]"..
|
|
"list[current_name;main;0,0;8,4;]"..
|
|
"list[current_player;main;0,5;8,4;]")
|
|
meta:set_string("infotext", "Chest");
|
|
local inv = meta:get_inventory()
|
|
inv:set_size("main", 8*4)
|
|
print(dump(meta:to_table()))
|
|
meta:from_table({
|
|
inventory = {
|
|
main = {[1] = "default:dirt", [2] = "", [3] = "", [4] = "", [5] = "", [6] = "", [7] = "", [8] = "", [9] = "", [10] = "", [11] = "", [12] = "", [13] = "", [14] = "default:cobble", [15] = "", [16] = "", [17] = "", [18] = "", [19] = "", [20] = "default:cobble", [21] = "", [22] = "", [23] = "", [24] = "", [25] = "", [26] = "", [27] = "", [28] = "", [29] = "", [30] = "", [31] = "", [32] = ""}
|
|
},
|
|
fields = {
|
|
formspec = "invsize[8,9;]list[current_name;main;0,0;8,4;]list[current_player;main;0,5;8,4;]",
|
|
infotext = "Chest"
|
|
}
|
|
})
|
|
|
|
Formspec
|
|
--------
|
|
Formspec defines a menu. Currently not much else than inventories are
|
|
supported. It is a string, with a somewhat strange format.
|
|
|
|
Spaces and newlines can be inserted between the blocks, as is used in the
|
|
examples.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
- Chest:
|
|
invsize[8,9;]
|
|
list[current_name;main;0,0;8,4;]
|
|
list[current_player;main;0,5;8,4;]
|
|
- Furnace:
|
|
invsize[8,9;]
|
|
list[current_name;fuel;2,3;1,1;]
|
|
list[current_name;src;2,1;1,1;]
|
|
list[current_name;dst;5,1;2,2;]
|
|
list[current_player;main;0,5;8,4;]
|
|
- Minecraft-like player inventory
|
|
invsize[8,7.5;]
|
|
image[1,0.6;1,2;player.png]
|
|
list[current_player;main;0,3.5;8,4;]
|
|
list[current_player;craft;3,0;3,3;]
|
|
list[current_player;craftpreview;7,1;1,1;]
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
invsize[<W>,<H>;]
|
|
^ Define the size of the menu in inventory slots
|
|
|
|
list[<inventory location>;<list name>;<X>,<Y>;<W>,<H>;]
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
field[<X>,<Y>;<W>,<H>;<name>;<label>;<default>]
|

|
|
^ Not implemented
|
|
|
|
button[<X>,<Y>;<W>,<H>;<name>;<label>]
|
|

|
|
^ Position and size units are inventory slots
|

|
|
returns the items that were actually removed (as an ItemStack)
|
|
|
|
ItemStack: A stack of items.
|
|
- Can be created via ItemStack(itemstack or itemstring or table or nil)
|
|
methods:
|
|
- is_empty(): return true if stack is empty
|
|
- get_name(): returns item name (e.g. "default:stone")
|
|
- get_count(): returns number of items on the stack
|
|
- get_wear(): returns tool wear (0-65535), 0 for non-tools
|
|
- get_metadata(): returns metadata (a string attached to an item stack)
|
|
- clear(): removes all items from the stack, making it empty
|
|
- replace(item): replace the contents of this stack (item can also
|
|
be an itemstring or table)
|
|
- to_string(): returns the stack in itemstring form
|
|
- to_table(): returns the stack in Lua table form
|
|
- get_stack_max(): returns the maximum size of the stack (depends on the item)
|
|
- get_free_space(): returns get_stack_max() - get_count()
|
|
- is_known(): returns true if the item name refers to a defined item type
|
|
- get_definition(): returns the item definition table
|
|
- get_tool_capabilities(): returns the digging properties of the item,
|
|
^ or those of the hand if none are defined for this item type
|
|
- add_wear(amount): increases wear by amount if the item is a tool
|
|
- add_item(item): put some item or stack onto this stack,
|
|
^ returns leftover ItemStack
|
|
- item_fits(item): returns true if item or stack can be fully added to this one
|
|
- take_item(n): take (and remove) up to n items from this stack
|
|
^ returns taken ItemStack
|
|
^ if n is omitted, n=1 is used
|
|
- peek_item(n): copy (don't remove) up to n items from this stack
|
|
^ returns copied ItemStack
|
|
^ if n is omitted, n=1 is used
|
|
|
|
PseudoRandom: A pseudorandom number generator
|
|
- Can be created via PseudoRandom(seed)
|
|
methods:
|
|
- next(): return next integer random number [0...32767]
|
|
- next(min, max): return next integer random number [min...max]
|
|
(max - min) must be 32767 or <= 6553 due to the simple
|
|
implementation making bad distribution otherwise.
|
|
|
|
PerlinNoise: A perlin noise generator
|
|
- Can be created via PerlinNoise(seed, octaves, persistence, scale)
|
|
- Also minetest.env:get_perlin(seeddiff, octaves, persistence, scale)
|
|
methods:
|
|
- get2d(pos) -> 2d noise value at pos={x=,y=}
|
|
- get3d(pos) -> 3d noise value at pos={x=,y=,z=}
|
|
|
|
Registered entities
|
|
--------------------
|
|
- Functions receive a "luaentity" as self:
|
|
- It has the member .name, which is the registered name ("mod:thing")
|
|
- It has the member .object, which is an ObjectRef pointing to the object
|
|
- The original prototype stuff is visible directly via a metatable
|
|
- Callbacks:
|
|
- on_activate(self, staticdata)
|
|
^ Called when the object is instantiated.
|
|
- on_step(self, dtime)
|
|
^ Called on every server tick (dtime is usually 0.05 seconds)
|
|
- on_punch(self, puncher, time_from_last_punch, tool_capabilities, dir)
|
|
^ Called when somebody punches the object.
|
|
^ Note that you probably want to handle most punches using the
|
|
automatic armor group system.
|
|
^ puncher: ObjectRef (can be nil)
|
|
^ time_from_last_punch: Meant for disallowing spamming of clicks (can be nil)
|
|
^ tool_capabilities: capability table of used tool (can be nil)
|
|
^ dir: unit vector of direction of punch. Always defined. Points from
|
|
the puncher to the punched.
|
|
- on_rightclick(self, clicker)
|
|
- get_staticdata(self)
|
|
^ Should return a string that will be passed to on_activate when
|
|
the object is instantiated the next time.
