If you want to run this on a server you must add this to your server minetest.conf:

enable_client_modding = true
csm_restriction_flags = 0
enable_mod_channels = true

This game is in early alpha and uses a lot of experimental features in the engine

ALPHA STATE CHANGELOG

Old Version Changelogs

Alpha 0.07

RailRoad Tech

• Added in better minecart algorithm
• Added in ability to link minecarts
• Added in train wrench
• Added in prototype of Engine by using a furnace on a minecart
• Added in SolarShrine's vignette

IDEAS:

REDSTONE:

• breaker (mines whatever is in front of it)
• dispenser (shoots out first item in inventory, or shoots item into pipe)
• piston in general (if node is falling and piston is pointing up then FLING IT, if detects falling node entity FLING IT)
• redstone bugs which spawn and try to kill you if a stack overflow detection occurs

BUILDTEST:

• quarry
• filter
• siv
• mining lazer
• trains

MOBS:

1 idea: weakness items, items that damage the mob more than diamond swords

redstone bugs

• spawn when a stack overflow detection occurs and is very hostile

zombies

• zombies drop limbs randomly and a player can use them as a very low durability weapon and place them in the world

spider

• spider eyes randomly drop as an object and players can wear them and place them

snowman

• you can put a pumpkin on it's head to make it survive when it's not snowing out
• drops snowballs, coal, or carrot

sheep

• sheep can be punched to drop wool without damage
• you can dye a sheep with colored dye and it will change color, then will drop the color you dyed it

pig

• disable pig aggression
• make porkchop look nicer

ghosts

• make the default player model whited out
• ghosts can pass through any nodes
• ghosts fly around
• will follow you groaning about "diamonds", "need food", and "join us"
• they will fling you up in the air or punch you
• ghosts can drag you down into nodes and suffocate you
• spawn with cave sounds
• drop soul

node monster

• gets built out of nodes in the area
• will probabaly destroy you
• drops all nodes that it's made of when killed

Game Mechanics:

• brewing
• enchanting/upgrading
• magic (wands, spells, etc)
• better combat ( sweep hit enemies, falling while hitting deals more damage )
• Enchanting food - gives buffs
• LATE effects https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=20724

New Themes

mechanics (mechanical tools and machines)

• compressor (compresses nodes down)
• auto miner (digs whatever is in front of it)
• decompressor (opposite of compressor

automation

• pipes
• pumps
• fluid transfer
• fluid storage
• pipes should be able to move objects quickly

HALLOWEEN!

• Jack O'Lanterns
• corn and corn stalks
• decorations
• cobwebs
• costumes (somehow?)
• candy
• make grass and leaves orange during the month of October
• (Use a simple date check and override nodes)
• Gravestones
• Graveyards
• Candles
• candy apples
• Soul cake, make with cake and soul

Farming

• add fertilizer (pig drops bone randomly)
• fertilizer is made out of bone -
• fertilizer can make tall grass grow on regular grass
• bread - 3 bread in a row
• make sandwich with bread and cooked porkchop
• fertilizer used on saplings randomly make tree grow (make sapling growth a function)

Fishing

• enchanted fish
• player casts out a better lure if on a boat

New Items

These don't seem to fit into any theme so list them all here

• rope and tnt arrows
• vehicles (car, powered minecarts, trains)
• hitscan flintlocks

Ideas

These ideas are all over the place but are good for future updates

• make pistons able to push and pull any node that does not use meta or inv
• make pistons able to push and pull deactivated pistons
• upgrade minecart physics even more
• make torches abm that checks if player in area
• make furnace abm that checks if player in area
• make tnt hurt player
• rewrite minecart
• fix tool rightclick torch placement to replace buildable to nodes
• if placed last node put another stack into hand
• have falling node hurt player?
• add a function to set a velocity goal to entities and then implement it with all entities
• ^make a value if below then stop?
• colored chat messages
• check if everyone is in bed before going to next night
• also lock player in bed until they get out or daytime
• create a function to check if a node or group is below
• ^ set meta for player so that all mods can use it without calculating it
• ^ over and over again (saves cpu cycles)
• cars buildable in crafting table
• require gas pumps refine oil
• drive next to gas pump and car will fill with gas
• maybe have pump be rightclickable and then manually fill with gass using nozel
• minecart car train? - off rail use
• automatic step height for off rail use
• make cars follow each other
• oil which spawns underground in pools
• powered minecart car (engine car)
• chest minecart car
• player controls engine car
• make entities push against players

Possible Applications

causes object to magnetize towards player or other objects and stop after an inner radius use for better item magnet?

if object:is_player() and object:get_player_name() ~= self.rider then
local player_pos = object:getpos()
pos.y = 0
player_pos.y = 0

  local currentvel = self.object:getvelocity()
  local vel = vector.subtract(pos, player_pos)
  vel = vector.normalize(vel)
  local distance = vector.distance(pos,player_pos)
  distance = (1-distance)*10
  vel = vector.multiply(vel,distance)
  local acceleration = vector.new(vel.x-currentvel.x,0,vel.z-currentvel.z)

  if self.axis == "x"      then
        self.object:add_velocity(vector.new(acceleration.x,0,0))
  elseif self.axis == "z" then
        self.object:add_velocity(vector.new(0,0,acceleration.z))
  else
        self.object:add_velocity(acceleration)
  end

  - acceleration = vector.multiply(acceleration, -1)
  - object:add_player_velocity(acceleration)

end
