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.

Tower Crane

Introduction

  • Place the crane base block. The crane arm will later be built in the same direction the player is 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 built according to these 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 built.

  • Right-click the crane switch block to start the crane (get fly privs). The player is placed in front of the crane.

  • To remove the crane, destroy the base block.

Minetest v5.0+ is required!
