# Tower Crane Mod
In order to simplify the construction of buildings, the crane forms a construction area in which the player gets fly privs.

The crane can be completely assembled by setting only the base block.
The size of the crane (which is the construction area) and the rope length can be configured.

## Introduction
* Place the crane base block.
  The crane arm will later be build in the same direction you are currently looking 

* Right-click the crane base block and set the crane dimensions in height and width (between 8 and 32 by default).
  The crane will be build according to this settings.
  If there is not enough free space for the crane mast/arm or the potential construction area of the 
  crane intersects a protected area from another player, the crane will not be build.

* Right-click the crane switch block to switch to fly privs. The player will be placed in front of the crane.

* To remove the crane, destroy the base block.  

**Minetest v5.0+ is required!**
