Minetest digibuilder

Build nodes with digiline commands

Overview

Allows the mesecons luacontroller to build things to the world

Settings

digibuilder.max_radius max radius, default: 15 nodes
digibuilder.setnode_delay delay between setnode calls in seconds, default: 0.5

Commands

Get node

digiline_send("digibuilder", {
  command = "getnode",
  pos = { x=1, y=0, z=0 }
})

if event.type == "digiline" and event.channel == "digibuilder" then
  -- { error = true, message = "..." }
  -- { pos = { x=1, y=0, z=0 }, name = "default:stone" }
  -- { pos = { x=1, y=0, z=0 }, name = "stairs:stair_stone", param2 = 3 }
end

Set node

digiline_send("digibuilder", {
  command = "setnode",
  pos = { x=1, y=0, z=0 },
  param2 = 3,
  name = "stairs:stair_stone"
})

if event.type == "digiline" and event.channel == "digibuilder" then
  -- { error = true, message = "..." }
  -- { pos = { x=1, y=0, z=0 }, success = true, name = "default:stone" }
  -- { pos = { x=1, y=0, z=0 }, success = true, name = "stairs:stair_stone", param2 = 3 }
end

pointed_thing handling

If none of the fields { up, down, north, south, west, east, auto } are set to true then a zero orientational pointed_thing is used. i.e. under == above coordinates. If auto field is set to true, then a direction is set based on the evaluated param2 or falls back to downward direction. Some nodes need a support-node to be at under position or they will be placed in the resulting under-coordinate. e.g. technic:hv_cable_plate_1
