If you want a small hotbar for use on mobile, remove the large_hotbar mod.

I have adjusted the large_hotbar mod to a size which is fine for my mobile. If I want to add a mod to minetest running the carbone-ng subgame where should I put that mod and how can I enable that one?
Can I place it in the mods folder of you're subgame or should I place it in the mods folder in my .minetest directory?

Maybe a stupid question, but I don't have experience with adding mods to a subgame.

You should install mods to your mods directory, not in the subgame. This way, you avoid conflicts with future versions of Carbone NG and you can enable/disable your mod easily in the world configuration menu.

Done that. Thanks for the advise. I don's see not much mobs in the carbone world. Can I increase the number of spawning mobs?

Running carbone-ng for a few weeks, but it looks very cool and all the mods that needed are there. Keep up the good work.

It would be nice if one could set mods to use on the command line for a headless server the way we can for games and worlds

$ minetest --game carbone-ng --world myworld --mods modlist.txt

Calinou, it is essential that you kept Carbone NG up-to-date with minetest-game. That way, you won't have to keep releasing new versions.

Where did all of those wonderful sound effects that the previous version had go? They were very essential to the general ambience.

Yeah, put down the books and keep modding!!! ;-)

Read the block again, it says...

lol,

you got me! Guess you see what you expect to see.

Thanks

dont work i most be doing something wrong. am new at this

Carbone-ng looks beautiful, thank you. The only issue I have with it is that even when I am not in creative mode, I can still craft unlimited amounts of any item I want. How do I turn this off? Thanks!

Are you ever going to re add mesecons? I love everything in this game except for the absence of my electronics!

LiberalSlovak : I think you should add it by yourself. Mesecons is a mod pretty loud for many computers, so putting it in a popular game would probably annoy some people :)

So...is the large_hotbar a mod you made yourself? Because I cant find it anywhere...and I really want it...

Yes, it's a tiny mod that enlarges the hotbar.

If you want it yourself, create a folder called large_hotbar/, create an init.lua file inside and write this:



Then move this folder to your Minetest installation's mods/ folder.

Nice game. Will we see connected drawtype support for the fences anytime soon, though?

I would like to have the normal inventory back. Which mod(s) change the inventory?

Calinou, can you please update the HUD Bars mod to the newest version? The version you are using is broken as all HUD Bars are drawn over each other. I am very sorry.

The HUD in general near the hotbar is semi-broken anyways: The item name is partly written over the HUD Bars. You could fix this by moving the HUD Bars some pixels up. Note the HUD Bars mod allows it rather easily to move all the HUD Bars around, just change the vertical offset.


EDIT:
I found 4 broken crafting recipes:

- One recipe for throwing:arrow requires default:default:cobble
- Recipe for itemframes:pedestal requires 2 items with lots of space. This is invalid IMO, you should use empty string, whitespace is not permitted
- Two recipes for the black dye require default:scorched_stuff

I found Carbone NG packaged with the new Minetest 0.4.14-785a9a6 by sfan5 - 2016-11-26.
So I assume that is the current version.

But when starting it, I get errormessages:

@hajo
turn off mod security

I think this is the worst advice.
Setting a certain mod as 'trusted' would be one step better.
(but still bad without a code-review)

Getting the mod fixed would be best.

From what I know this game is discontinued for now.
