Minetest mod: nua
==== Node Update Alerts ====
USAGE:
To raise a normal alert from any position:
nua.event(eventpos)
To receive an alert:
minetest.get_meta(receivernodepos):set_string("on_nbr_update","modname.functionname")
where, modname.functionname = function(receiverpos, eventpos)
Typically, a nua-aware node will have registration code like:
on_construct = function(p)
local m=minetest.get_meta(p)
m:set_string("on_nbr_update","zigmod.zag")
nua.event(p)
end,
after_destruct = function(p,o)
nua.event(p)
end,
NOTES: "on_nbr_update" is generically named so the interface is equally usable by alternative alert mods.
EXTENSION: Only nua-aware mods can use this mod. Another mod, nuafan, adds nua-support to nodes from nua-ignorant mods as well. https://github.com/Aftermoth/nuafan
