02:12 AllEvil669 I'm pulling my hair out here.
02:15 AllEvil669 No matter what I do, I keep getting the same error: ServerError: Crafting definition is missing a recipe
02:15 AllEvil669 (output="default:sandstone 1")
02:42 LazyJ      The "recipe" part is a different line.
02:43 LazyJ      recipe = {modname:nodename, modname:nodename, modname:nodename},
02:43 LazyJ      Follows the grid pattern.
02:44 LazyJ      So if the recipe is 2 items in 2 specific slots, then you have to write the recipe to match.
02:44 LazyJ      {"", "", "",}
02:45 LazyJ      {"", "default:coal", "",},
02:45 LazyJ      {"", "default:stick", "",},
02:46 LazyJ      For better examples, look throught the minetest_game/mods/default/crafting.lua
02:48 LazyJ      Uh... yup. AllEvil left.
03:06 AllEvil669 Crafting recpies, how do they work?
03:07 AllEvil669 I simply cannot get one to output anything.
03:12 LazyJ      For better examples, look through the minetest_game/mods/default/crafting.lua
03:14 AllEvil669 I have looked through those files. My entries are done in the exact same way. But, unlike minetest_game, my register_craft entries don't produce anything. I haven't a clue what in the world I'm missing/doing wrong.
03:18 AllEvil669 Maybe I should give a better idea of what I'm trying to do...
03:19 AllEvil669 I'm trying to define a crafting recpie that will take four sand nodes, placed in a 2x2 square, and crank out one stone node.
03:21 AllEvil669 When I place the requsite sand nodes in the pattern, nothing shows up in the output window.
03:22 LazyJ      That sounds exactly the same as the default recipe. Conflict perhaps?
03:23 AllEvil669 Shouldn't be. This isn't an add-on to a default game mode, but one that I have defined myself. At this time, the "sand to stone" recpie is the only crafting recpie in the game mode.
03:25 LazyJ      The default game uses 4 sand, as you describe, to produce sandstone. Then you're version is telling Minetest to do the same but produce stone instead. If you use Unified Inventory, the extra recipes appear as "alternate recipe" (button).
03:27 LazyJ      For an experiment, try changing your recipe to one sand in each of the far, four corners.
03:30 LazyJ      Even if you have no game installed, the Minetest engine comes with "Minimal" which also has the same recipe.
03:30 AllEvil669 So, even if I define my own game mode, which I have, there are recpies "built into" the minetest engine itself?
03:31 LazyJ      Not built-in, pre-packaged. "Minimal" is found in the .../games  directory.
03:32 AllEvil669 Ok, are you telling me that gets loaded, even if I load a different game?
03:33 LazyJ      If you are trying to use your own game, then you will first have to manually create a world sub-directory in the ../worlds directory and then manually create your own "world.mt" file with the first line being "gameid = yourgame'sname".
03:34 LazyJ      The default is "gameid = minetest"
03:35 LazyJ      Your game, in the ../games directory, will also need a game.conf file.
03:35 LazyJ      Download other sub-games to study and compare.
03:37 LazyJ      The "game.conf" file identifies your game so it will show up under the list in the "Create" menu.
03:39 LazyJ      If your game doesn't appear in that menu, then that may be the root of the trouble as Minetest is either starting your test world with "Mininal" or whatever it can find with a game.conf file.
03:41 AllEvil669 Right. I've gotten that far. I think my issue is related to the "shape" of the recpie I'm trying to make. If there is only one node in the recpie, it works. As soon as I try and add another nod, nothign doing.
03:42 LazyJ      This is a little thing, but easily overlooked, do you have enough commas in the right places?
03:43 AllEvil669 Now that you have put that idea into my head, I'm going to checks.
03:43 AllEvil669 *check
03:46 AllEvil669 Well, you're going to be amused by this. I missed a closing bracket. I guess staring at my code for 24 hours straight is bad for debugging.
03:47 LazyJ      Hehehe... been there myself and the bruises are still fresh.
03:47 zlsa       absolutely, I've done the stupidest things without even noticing them for hours on end
03:47 AllEvil669 I feel like a rank noob now. I thought I was past these mistake.
03:47 zlsa       * mistakes :P
03:47 AllEvil669 Yeah, mistakes.
03:48 LazyJ      Well, it's a good ending to the day then. G'night ;)
