Vehicle Mash

• Current version: 2.4.0
• By blert2112, and handed over to Panquesito7.

A merge of all the vehicles from:

• "Mesecars" by paramat.

• "Car" by Esteban.

• "Boats" by PilzAdam.

• "Hovercraft" by Stuart Jones.

• 28 vehicles currently.

• All CAR01's can carry 3 passengers.

• Disable vehicles by going to your Minetest Settings.

• Adding new vehicles is a simple matter of:

  • Create/acquire vehicle model and textures.
  • Create, and name appropriately, a new .lua file on its appropiate folder for the vehicle based on one of the existing ones.
  • Add a setting in settingtypes.txt for users to enable/disable it.
  • Change settings in the file you created to reflect the new vehicle.
  • Add a new line to init.lua to load the vehicle dofile(minetest.get_modpath("vehicle_mash") .. "/NAME_OF_VEHICLE.lua")

Installation

• Unzip the archive, rename the folder to vehicle_mash and place it in ../minetest/mods/

• GNU/Linux: If you use a system-wide installation place it in ~/.minetest/mods/.

• If you only want this to be used in a single world, place the folder in worldmods/ in your world directory.

All licenses of previous works, of course, apply (see credits below). As far as the work I did... It's really just a fork of a fork of a fork of a fork, tossed it all into a blender and spun it on puree for a bit. Baked it for a while and set it on the counter to cool. What I mean is, make what you will of it, it matters not to me.
