The item shelf mod is a simple mod that adds to shelves that can hold up to 4 or 6 items. This small limitation is due to the fact that shelves show the items they are holding using entities. The entities are purely static and consume 0 CPU (like the ones in itemframes for example), but still the limitation is to avoid lag.
Shelves should work with protection mods (currently only tested with areas mod). Without any protection they are public, otherwise they obey the proection of the area
There are three different types of shelves, and all three come in two different flavors: holding 4 or 6 items.
- Shelf: like a bookshelf, one cube wide
- Half shelf: while not exactly half a cube, it is less deep
- Half open shelf: like the above, but with no back
Developers using this mod can register a particular node to use the item shelf functionality. To do that, the following function is used:
itemshelf.register_shelf(name, def)where name is the name of the node (itemshelf: will be the prefix) and def is a Lua table defining the following:
description: shown in inventorytextures(if drawtype is nodebox)nodebox(like default minetest.register_node def). Do not use withmesh.mesh(like default minetest.register_node def). Do not use withnodebox.item capacity(how many items will fit into the shelf, use even numbers, max 16)shown_items(how many items to show, will always show first (shown_items/2) items of each row, max 6)
