Description
----------------------------------

Provides craftable nodes that when placed turn into shapes or structures.

Features:
- easy to use, no chat commands, just nice easy structures that you can build by crafting and placing nodes
- lightweight - there are no ABMs, the nodes are created using after_place_node() in the node definitions
- grief-resistant - before nodes deploy a check is run to ensure that only air exists in the new area


----------------------------------
Crafts
----------------------------------
 
Spheres:

-M-   M=dirt/wood/brick/cobble/stone/glass
MMM   make bigger spheres by using small spere as the material
-M-


Cylinder Y:

-M-  M=dirt/wood/brick/cobble/stone/glass
M-M  make bigger cylinders by using small cylinders as the material
-M-


Mazes:

MMM  M=dirt/wood/brick/cobble/stone/glass
-MM  make bigger mazes by using small mazes as the material
MM-


Buildings:

S-S Small
WGW S=stone, W=wood, G=glass
WWW

S-S Medium/Large
WGW S=stone, W=wood, G=glass
MMM M=small/medium building

How To Add New Stuff
----------------------------------

New Shapes:

Shapes should be deployed in their own mod folder as follows:

-- init.lua --
deploy_your_mod = {}
deploy_your_mod.deploy =  function(pos,placer)
	-- check for space
	if deploy_nodes.check_for_space==true and not enough_space then return end
	-- remove node
	minetest.env:remove_node(pos)
	-- build the thing
	-- ... your code here ...
end
minetest.register_node("deploy_your_mod:your_node", {
	after_place_node = deploy_your_mod.deploy,
})

-- depends.txt --
deploy_nodes


New Buildings:

Simply drop them into deploy_building/buildings/[large|medium|small].  The mod will detect them automatically as long as they have a ".we" extension.
