FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

I have some code that can display awards in a tree, and can find that code for you if you like

Carbone implemented this mod, with added achievements and fixes, feel free to take the changes.

Any chance prerequisites would be shown?

A progress bar will be added in the next version, but the description should explain what to do.

What I've meant is a way to show a map of achievements of some sort. Like in my version one have to have "Upgrade2" to be able to receive "Upgrade3".

Suppose you are struggling with a vombie, or worse, a DM, and you place your 100th torch...

When I made this mod, there were no such things as HUD elements. But I will add them soon.

Noooo!!! That'll ruin my fork!!!....
Just kidding, I owe you big time.
I'll be glad to see this develop.

Does your custom triggers support timer-triggered events?
What I mean is the ability to create achievement that'll be unlocked ANYTIME a modder want. Say, I pick up an uranium lump. I't MY duty to start the timer. But is it possible to give an award for a player when MY timer hits some time I have chosen?
Can I use smth like give_award(player, 'Hulk SmAaAAaaaSh!!!')?
Like having some item in the inventory, say, uranium, would)

Oh, I see. That is an interesting idea. Currently, you can unlock any achievement as long as you fullfil the requirements. I can functionality that only unlocks an award when a specified set of awards are all unlocked.

For example:


As for displaying this, the awards could be grouped together and only the newest/best awards shown. Or it could be in a tree view like the mod manager. Or it could be in a graphical tree, but that would be hard to do.

You can use:



Where name is the player name, and award is the achievement name. This allows you to register your own triggers.

Also, in order to register table triggers, you can use this: https://github.com/rubenwardy/awards/bl ... pi.lua#L76
The code explains it in a comment.

A table trigger:

Aha.. Thanks!
Now I can throw my version away :)

Showing the last one achieved sounds good for me. This way achievements may be not just a list of, well, achievements, but some sort of help to distinguish different ranks:
killed 1 mob = awarded "Soldier"
killed 10 mobs = awarded "Lieutenant"
killed 100 mobs = you're a "General"
killed 1000 mobs = you're a "Commander-in-Chief"
Or smth like this.

Just one more little question: I've looked through the code and feel unsure about this:
Say, I want to add on_craft trigger...
There's no such type of triggers. So, table ones won't do. Am I to use awards.give_achievement() wrapped by my code in my mod?

Other than this, I have to try this new version to be able to ask the right questions for anything else I'm not sure about, I guess.
Great work, rubenwardy! Regards!

Have you thought about adding support for groups in various awards? For group:wood for one maybe?
And also, what about a craft award? And is their a way to add a way for killing mobs?
I could try to implement the first myself... Sorry for all of the requests!

I could do that. It would complicate the code. I might have to add a function like:



to save space in the recording tables. (Don't count if no awards use it).


About the mobs, you could add it. Not sure about the simple mobs or mobf side of it, though.

Maybe you can add archivements based on time online?

I think the best way is to depend on Rubenwardy's awards to do things like that.
How 'bout separating API from all achievements? I mean 2 separate mods in a single modpack.
Then the part with achievements only could use a few github pushes.

fix this its not working

pls fix this

Listen, how do you expect someone to fix something if you give no information as to what is wrong. Give us some info as to what is not working.

Thedarksoldier wrote:fix this its not working

I can't fix anything if I do not know what is wrong

• Does it crash?
  • Copy the last 20 lines of debug.txt into this topic
  • Explain what you were doing at the time
• Does it just not work, no crashes?
  
  • Type /mods in to the chat, and look for "awards". If it is not there, then you have not installed it correctly.
  • If it is there, explain what it is not doing properly.

Thedarksoldier wrote:fix this its not working

You're probably new here.
Please, post the console output after "Error from lua".
Also describe what isn't working in particular.
Regards!

Edit: How can I delete my message? Firefox's cache fooled me into thinking there were no answers...

0.5 Released!

License has changed to GPL 3.0 or later.

• Use HUD instead of formspec
• Back port awards from Calinou's Carbone/Awards
• Remove pointlessly easy awards or make them harder
• Add API support for players receiving prizes, such as blocks and items, when unlocking awards (not currently used by any awards)

Cool I was just mentioning it earlier today :D
https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=9033&start=100#p155616

Cheers

Calinou brought it to my attention, which is why I updated it.

Work perfectly, thank you

Just an idea : a gift added in the invo on each achievement reached.

Examples :

- Dug 1.000 stones ("Miner Beginner") -> Mese Pickaxe.
- Dug 10.000 stones ("Pro Miner") -> Diamond Pickaxe.
- Dug 50.000 stones ("Legendary Miner") -> Diamond Block.

etc.

EDIT : already in the TODO, sorry.

Gift support has been added in 0.5. It is called prizes. No awards give prizes ATM, but it as simple as adding this to an award definition:

prizes = {"default:stone 99"}

Giving tools is quite a good idea.

Thank you for this!
I think my kids are going to love this one. I'm already plugging in prizes for them to win.

Hi rubenwardy,

Thank you for your mod and for your work with HUD,
i meet a syntax problem with the "prizes = {"default:stone 99"}" line,
Can you give me an example for a full award ?
Can i give other prizes like :
- "prizes = {"moreblocks:super_glow_glass"}
- "prizes = {"maptools:superapple"}
- etc...
?

minetestforfun, don't forget the comma. I always forget the comma and have to go back after it fails to load.

For example I plugged " prizes = {"homedecor:trophy 1"}, " into the "dying spree" award. I think you can use anything you want from any mod you run, only trouble would come if you later disable a mod that had an item as a prize.

You can also give multiple items

prizes = {"default:stone 99", "default:mese", "default:nyancat"},

Thank you for your answers, i had forget one comma, my bad :/...

for prizes, Items from other mods are possible ? (maptools / moreblocks / etc ?)

Any items can be used. It is just an item string/code.

After many try, everything work for "default" prizes, but with prizes from this mods :
- prizes = {"moreblocks:super_glow_glass 5"},
- prizes = {"maptools:superapple"}
- prizes = {"maptools:superapple 2"}
- prizes = {"maptools:superapple 10"}
- prizes = {"bucket:bucket_water"}

It doesn't work, maybe my code isn't good ? Please, can you check ?

It uses the code copied from /giveme to do the prices. if you can do /giveme to those items, it should work.

i can giveme this items but, it doesn't work with the mod awards...
"/giveme maptools:superapple 10" work fine...
