Calendar

This mod adds a simple and customizable calender system.

The calendar supports days, weeks, months and years. Holidays are also supported.

To make things simpler, all months have the same length.

By default, a year has 12 months (January to December) with 30 days each. There are 7 weekdays from Monday to Sunday, starting at Monday. The calendar starts at Day 1, Month 1 (January), Year 1.

Version

1.1.3

Compability

This mod is designed for Minetest 5.3.0, but there's a compability mode for version 0.4.17.

Due to a limited feature set, the calender form looks a bit differently in 0.4.17. Fake buttons are used for the day boxes to allow the use of tooltips.

Customizing the calendar

If you want to customize the calendar (e.g. change the length of months), read the text file API.md.

Info for programmers

See API.md.

Where is the date stored?

Minetest stores the number of elapsed days in the world files and it can be queried in Lua via minetest.get_day_count(). The day count is stored in the world directory under env_meta.txt as day_count.
