@D00Med if we ever draw again can you show me how you come up with animals and creatures

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy Sure

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med thx

[tobyplowy]

@LoneWolfHT @D00Med @DS-Minetest @GreenXenith would anyone be interested in makeing a let's play series for farlands

This can help me understand what poeple do in this subgame also it's a good way to talk about what you like and what not :)

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy I made fruit as an ore in leaves, but I wasn't happy with it so I released it as a separate mod.

[tobyplowy]

but I wasn't happy with it so I released it as a separate mod

What was the problem with it?

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy The fruit looked ugly when they were on the tree.

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med maybe less Contrast in the fruit textures wuld help

[tobyplowy]

I may whant to use this to replace the apples in Minetest so the apple is a full block

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy Yeah that might help. Do you think it's ok for Farlands? The leaves with fruit drop leaves and the fruit falls as an item entity. I'm thinking of making the leaves with coconut do that too.
A full block?

[tobyplowy]

A full block?

This is why using voice chat is better XD
What I meant to say is replacing the Apple Block that we have From default
And replacing it with a block leaves with apple
They work the same as leaves with coconut but is an apple instead of a coconut XD
I will also make a new default tree schematic if that is ok with you

Also shuld default tree be named oak tree?

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy Yeah xD
Oh ok. I'm fine with that, I don't really like the default trees anyway, they are too short.
I don't really care, but if you do rename it, just change the description, not the textures or registered names.

[tobyplowy]

Do you think it's ok for Farlands?

I'm not sure i think yes but I need to see it in game to be sure
I may only use it for apples

[tobyplowy]

I don't really like the default trees anyway, they are too short.

I will not make them alot taller but I will try also we may also add a big oak schematic so there's more variation that will make the forest more interesting and less repetitive :)

just change the description

Of course i did that before but it changed back to normal after you updated the minetest game content
But I will correct it again :)

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med Also shuld I make a new birch tree aswell?

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy Ok. Just one or two nodes higher would be good. That way it wouldn't be too hard to clear forest, and easier to walk around. I think the birch trees are good as they are.
Oh ok.

[tobyplowy]

I think the birch trees are good as they are.

Yeh maybe

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med I think we should start testing the game soon in survival to find mistakes

Like problems to survive (not enough food and wood)
The game Bering too easy (mobs and tools blans)
Having tings to do (like dungeons and other structures achievements and other)

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy Ok, good idea

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy Generally I'm going to be busy on weekday mornings.

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med :/ well i guess we will only make progress in the weekend than

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy I can still do stuff in the afternoon, I just can't discuss it

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy Should the silo work like a chest?

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med Yes it can hold alot of items more than a chest but it can only hold one type of item at a time

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy I think I will add a "grain" group, and add cotton and wheat seeds to that. The silo can work like a vessels shelf and only allow that group.

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med Ok also good

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med is it possible to port the mineclone2 minechafts to farlands?

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy idk, I'll have a look

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med the minescafts in mineclone2 are way better and they generate Bridges if they don't have Ground they also Don't generate In The Wrong Direction also they are way more advanced
The mineclone2 minechafts can probably also be used for dungeons

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med @MarkuBu maybe we can use discord?
I prefer discord over gitter

[MarkuBu]

I never used discord. And to be honest I don't want a voice chat. I want a text chat that allows to chat in realtime and be able to read offline messages

[tobyplowy]

@MarkuBu discord has a realtime text schat

Gitter is fine for me but it has prittie bad mobile support (ui is annoying And flips Out evry now and then it also sometimes forgets to update the conversation

[MarkuBu]

I never had issues with Gitter on mobile. However, I registered "burli" on discord

[MarkuBu]

It seems that the beds mod is not compatible with the default mod, so I replaced the default with the farlands version

[tobyplowy]

@MarkuBu so is that good or is that bed (see what I did there)

[MarkuBu]

Well, the only problem might be, that we need to fix bugs in the beds mod manually.

[tobyplowy]

@MarkuBu can you have a look at the grass recolors I did in the 1.1 branch
(the normal grass looks a bit darker the other grasses alot more)

[D00Med]

So are we using gitter or discord?

[MarkuBu]

Finally I messed up my local git repo. I can't test the new textures right now. Will fix that tomorrow

@D00Med I don't care. We can try both.

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med @MarkuBu so we try both first discord?

[MarkuBu]

My discord name is burli. But I don't have much time

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy @MarkuBu Ok...well I will go and sign up for discord xD

[D00Med]

Alright, my discord name is the same as here

[tobyplowy]

@D00Med @MarkuBu what are your tags

[tobyplowy]

Next to your name you shuld find a # and than a number

In the bottom left corner

[MarkuBu]

Hello, I'm tacigar.
I am a modder making mod maidroid(https://github.com/tacigar/maidroid).
I heard from @tobyplowy that Pet API is needed.
I made something like that when I made maidroid, so I think I can make it.
May I join this great project?
Recently I am busy with school, maybe I will not spend much time developing, but I will do my best.

[D00Med]

@tobyplowy Thanks :)
@tacigar Thanks for your interest in the project :)
You certainly may join, help is really needed on the pet API.
That's ok, I myself am often busy with study.

[tacigar]
