mobs:explosion is deprecated, must use mobs:boom instead

[Wuzzy2]

I just stumpled upon this code in wither.lua:

mobs:explosion(pos, 3, 0, 1)  --WHY THE ACTUAL FUCK DOES THIS NOT WORK ANYMORE?  Because wuzzy uses his own mobs.
               mobs:explosion(pos, 3)   --USE THIS IF USING MINECLONE

Why didn't you just tell me about the problem? If something is wrong in MCL2, I need to know it. Well, I just went ahead and fixed the incompability in MCL2 now (it was a bad conversion from my part, SORRY! The Mobs Redo in MCL2 is not supposed to be incompatible) and cleaned the section in wither.lua so it works in both MTG and MCL2. The sound explosion was also a duplicate, by the way, the sound is played by Mobs Redo already.

But I have dug into this matter a bit. While the code works for now, I noticed that mobs:explosion is now deprecated and we must use mobs:boom instead. Sadly, I haven't found a way to invoke mobs:boom without crashing the game (Minetest complains about a sounds table to be missing).

I tried mobs:boom(self, pos, 3) to replace mobs:explosion above but it caused the aforementioned crash.

@tenplus1, what is the correct way to invoke mobs:boom? We need to invoke an explosion in hit_node of an arrow.

It is traced to your tnt code.

Please use “```” instead of “`” for long code blocks.

The crash in mcl_tnt was indeed by fault. I got the dependencies wrong. I have fixed this crash now.
