|
|
|
|
A Minetest mod that allows items to be copied.
|
|
|
|
## What is/isn't it?
|
|
|
|
Blueprints is a way to copy complex node settings with two clicks. One blueprint
|
|
can only store one node, if you want to bulk save/load/copy/move nodes, see
|
|
[WorldEdit](https://github.com/Uberi/Minetest-WorldEdit).
|
|
|
|
## Items
|
|
|
|
Blueprints introduces two types of items: Blank blueprints, and... well...
|
|
non-blank blueprints.
|
|
|
|
Blank blueprint crafting:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Requires:
|
|
- 8 `basic_materials` plastic strips
|
|
- 1 paper sheet
|
|
|
|
To erase data off a blueprint, provided it isn't already blank, put it in the
|
|
crafting grid.
|
|
|
|
## Usage instructions
|
|
|
|
Blueprints are relatively intuitive to use. To take a blueprint of something,
|
|
simply left-click it while holding a blank blueprint. To apply the blueprint
|
|
to other nodes, you can left-click the node. **Do not apply blueprints to chests
|
|
or other nodes with items in, you will lose your items.** To place a new node
|
|
down with the blueprint applied, just right-click while holding the blueprint.
|
|
Note that with pipeworks and mesecons placing a node with a blueprint will not
|
|
link up wires/pipes to the node.
|
|
|
|
## What can/can't be blueprinted?
|
|
|
|
By default, item metadata (such as node settings) is saved, however, of course,
|
|
node inventories aren't. This can be overridden on a per-item basis (for more
|
|
information, see the [API] page). Unless overridden by mods, nodes not in the
|
|
creative inventory cannot be blueprinted.
|
|
|
|
Because of the way pipeworks teleportation tubes work, they cannot be
|
|
blueprinted.
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies
|
|
|
|
Blueprints has no mandatory dependencies, however blueprints will be uncraftable
|
|
without `basic_materials` and `default`.
|
|
|
|
The following dependencies are so blueprint rules can be added onto items for
|
|
better compatibility:
|
|
- `mesecons`
|
|
- `mesecons_fpga`
|
|
- `mesecons_microcontroller`
|
|
- `mesecons_luacontroller`
|
|
- `pipeworks`
