New stuff

Tuesday, April 5th, 2011

A quick update again: http://celeron.55.lt/~celeron55/minetest/packages/win32/minetest-0.0.2-win32-110405183346.zip

What was added:
- cobblestone
- steel ingots, steel blocks, the steel pick
- shovels and axes
- the furnace is buildable and works now

I updated the version number to 0.0.2, but it doesn’t have much relevance because currently the main versioning is the date. But it does mark a certain milestone in this project.

I hope somebody can go and update the wiki. I don’t quite have the time. Anyway, things are done quite in the same way as in minecraft, so google for that if you’ve never played the “real game”. 8)

A chest

From now on, I will be posting updates about the Minetest-c55 game project in this blog. I will be posting somewhat longer texts than I did in the news section.

Last weekend I finally got away from trying to rework the terrain generator, which quite much only resulted in me getting bored and depressed.

Yesterday I added some code to make it possible to make special objects with metadata and different functions, like chests and furnaces.

Today I realized the initial format of the metadata sucked and I have now changed it to a more robust one. Items in chest won’t be preserved when you update, but I am quite sure I will manage to preserve them after this update.

Here is the package for windows.
