These are examples as to how trees_lib for Minetest can be used.

Files: init.lua Just does dofile(..) example_tree.lua A complex tree example. trees_lib_growing_functions.lua Some adjusted growth functions taken from other mods. trees.lua Taken from and for minetest_game.

The example tree will look blueish and carry fruits that look like copper lumps. It exists only to demonstrate what can be done. Depending on the ground on which the sapling is placed, diffrent methods of growing are used, and the tree will display diffrent forms of growth.

trees.lua is not executed. If you want to use it, copy it to minetest_game/mods/default/trees.lua Create a backup of the existing file there first. Then comment out all definitions of tree trunks, wood, leaves and fruit nodes (=apple) in minetest_game/mods/default/nodes.lua as those will be created by trees.lua. All calls to leafdecay in nodes.lua have to be removed as well. Also remove the function leafdecay_after_destruct in minetest_game/mods/default/functions.lua

trees.lua and trees_lib have not yet been adjusted to the most recent changes in minetest_game (i.e. using of LBMs and timers instead of ABMs).

trees.lua is taken from minetest_game and modified so that trees_lib can be used by minetest_game.
