lol - considering your nickname (besides I would recommend looking above the earth, the air quality is better there)

but nobody said getting an air sword should be anything easy. Something so powerfull should be extremely hard to get and a simple /giveme is totally besides the point of this mod. As much as it hardly makes any sense on a creative server. That would thoroughly destroy all the fun.

it didn't work! i got the error

I had the airsword once. I can't find it anymore (older broken down PC). I tried to remember how to make it, but didn't succeed.

So I made this:

I know, this is not the greatest sword in the world, it is just a tribute...

[TenPlus1]

*sings* This is not the greatest sword in the world, no... This is just a tribute

[Krock]

A very good mod. Using it since two months now - found no bugs at all.

wouldn't they be invisible anyways?

[ExeterDad]

Whatever you do... do not hit the "Q" button when using the air sword. Finding a tiny, spinning air sword is indeed impossible.

Invisible but still there. If you get hit by a blast created by the sword then you will notice. Especially if you stand on the edge of a cliff and get pushed over it. That's really annoying because you get the best air from updraught near cliffs next to the sea.

Prove it isn't a hoax, tell me the item string of the most underpowered item.

[rubenwardy]

The itemstring is "", of course. It makes sense that if the sword is made out of thin (albeit high quality) air, then the item string will be made up out of thin air.

Tnx I'll try it tommarrow when I get ungrounded from my computer.

Being ungrounded is absolutely required for use of the air-sword. It must have nothing to do with ground content.

I absolutely agree.

[Diamond knight]

I meant I am grounded by my parents until this afternoon.

[ExeterDad]

Awwwwwww.... the sweet victory of having the power to ground your kids for something.
I might have to ground my kids for something tonight so I can take my wife out.
:P

I accidentally pressed "Q" while fighting a stone monster and lost it. :-( He got me.

Reminds me of the dwarf monks in Pixel Dungeon and Shattered Pixel Dungeon, they kick the weapon out of your hand. Then you have to pick it up and re-equip it. BTW: would that be possible for a mod/mob to remove an item from the inventory if a hit is successful?

It would be so much better if you could have a reclaim button, so that you could reclaim an item that you have dropped up to 3 seconds after you have dropped it, unless it was dropped in lava/water...

In Minecraft you can use the 'r' button (I think) to reclaim lost items, It's extremely helpful...

Yes, you can make a weapon that removes an item from the inventory. The on_use callback holds in pointed_thing a reference to the object that is punched and can be used to get the inventory and thus the individual items. But that would override the default behaviour and would make the weapon useless in any other case, except you make your own damage code. (Which is problematic due to not being able to tell the time since the last use).

the itemstring u gave me didnt work, prove thi isnt a hoax

Do, or Do Not. There is no prove.

The Air Sword is worthy of an Emperor! Do you question the Emperor's New Sword?

[ExeterDad]

Odd. What OS are you running? Video card and drivers?

[Diamond knight]

windows

[4aiman]

Have read all this messages and thought...

Is the air quality at y==65535 all that good?
I mean, if an Air Sword crafted out of y==+50 air is so powerful, then the air at y==65535 should be EXTREMELY powerful.

A friend of mine already has told me about the y==-31543 Air Sword being so weak that it actually heals the user and those invisible mobs, so I wanna check the "other side of a coin".

[Diamond knight]

how do u collect air

[4aiman]

It depends.
Some games have a version of "item_drop" mod - some doesn't.
Some allows you to use /giveme chatcommand - some doesn't.
Sometimes there are other mods which prevent one from collecting any air.

You should probably post here full specs of your rig, the software installed, a list of environments variables, version of minetest (with a hash string, if you're using dev or unofficial build) and a list of installed mods with their versions.

That data should help us to tell how you should collect air in your configuration.
