Minetest modpack, tested with version 0.4.17.1.

This modpack contains:

• Modern Tables

  Simple wooden tables. To be expanded.

• Miner Tools

  Electronic gadgets for professional miners. Inspired by mod called 'Mineral Detector'.

  This mod provides following portable devices:

  • geothermometer - shows temperature variations of solid blocks (water and lava affect block relative temperature - water cools it down while lava warms it up); useful for underground mining to search - or avoid - flooded caverns or lava pools
  • mineral scanner - shows ore count in area around player, selectable range (designed to be a handheld, improved version of Mineral Detector mentioned earlier)
  • mineral finder - short range directional scanner to find nearby deposits of selected mineral; very picky, especially at angles, but driven by simple logic
  • all-in-one versions of above devices, each one with improved characteristics

• SaferLua Programming Tools

  Devices for interacting with SaferLua Controller from TechPack mod:

  • Memory Copier - portable dongle to transfer code between SL Controllers in much simpler and faster fashion than copying it with text books
  • Memory Programmer - improved Memory Copier, with read/write protection to prevent accidental memory loss and code injection functionality (works like original Programmer but for SL Controllers); the latter allows to replace special marker in init() section code with array containing collected Tubelib numbers, making redeployments of SL Controllers (for example for mobile mining with Quarries and Pushers) much easier

  Note: due to formspec implementation, only inactive tabs can be populated - before code upload/rewrite please change active tab on SaferLua Controller to 'outp' or 'help'.

• Biogas Machines

  Work in progress, only a stub for now. Planned to expand TechPack with biogas-fuelled furnace, machine to extract biogas from coal blocks and a high temperature compressor to convert (albeit slowly) stone to obsidian.
