This simple mod uses nodeboxes to supply a complete set of 3D flanged pipes.
|
|
Also included in this mod are "valve" and "pump" devices.
|
|
|
|
Pipes are rounded thanks abusing minetest's nodeboxes ;-) , and when placed,
|
|
they'll automatically join together as needed. Pipes can go vertically or
|
|
horizontally, and there are enough nodes defined to allow for all possible
|
|
connections.
|
|
|
|
Pipes come in two variants: one type bears one or more dark windows on each
|
|
pipe, suggesting they're empty, while the other type bears green-tinted
|
|
windows, as if full (the two colors should also be easy to select if you want
|
|
to change them in a paint program). These windows only appear on straight
|
|
lengths and on T-junctions.
|
|
|
|
There are no crafting recipes, yet, but you can use /giveme as usual, namely
|
|
"/giveme pipeworks:pipe_empty 999" or so, and then place them as needed. See
|
|
init.lua for more details.
|
|
|
|
This mod is intended to be used as a basis or at least as sort of a model for
|
|
something else to build on (perhaps a nicer-looking oil mod?), and does not
|
|
provide any of the code necessary to cause anything to flow through them. Like
|
|
the pipes, the valve and pump don't do anything useful yet, but you can punch
|
|
them to turn them "on" and "off". Note that the valve and pump do not rotate
|
|
yet, and the textures and shapes are not yet complete (hence their boxy
|
|
appearance).
|
|
|
|
Only the full horizontal segments of the old and new pipes, and the 'off' pump
|
|
and valve will appear in your creative inventory.
|
|
|
|
This mod is a work in progress.
|
|
|
|
Please note that owing to the nature of this mod, I have opted to use 64px
|
|
textures. Anything less just looks terrible.
|
|
|
|
If you don't need the old node names from the previous version of this mod,
|
|
edit init.lua and comment-out the 'dofile' line at the top.
|
|
|
|
Dependencies: None, but your copy of Minetest must be newer than git commit
|
|
1788709e2d for correct handling of nodeboxes and texture rotations (otherwise,
|
|
the pipes will still work but will look wrong). 0.4.2-rc1 will work fine if
|
|
you don't want to fetch from git.
