Books Redux Mod v1.0 By Leslie Krause Books Redux is full rewrite of default books from Minetest Game, offering players a rich selection of books and papers for in-game communication. * Choose from 4 different cover and page styles for books * Choose from 12 different page styles for papers * Choose from a wide variety of background color schemes * Page sizes can range from small, large, wide, and tall * Bookmarks can be added, removed, or recalled on-the-fly * Edits to books and papers can be previewed before saving * Simple page navigation for editing and viewing books * All content is encrypted using a 128-bit block cipher * Legacy books can still be viewed in compatibility mode Even better still, books and papers are both easily craftable using the same traditional recipes as before: 3 papyrus for one paper, and 3 paper for one book. With so many possible combinations of sizes, colors, and styles, the design possibilities are virtually endless! Moreover, custom layout and formatting of text is also possible using the Bedrock Markup Language. In fact, the editor for books and papers should be very familiar to those accustomed to the Signs Redux mod. https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=23955 Of course, plain-text messages are acceptable as well, as they will render exactly as they are input, without any fancy colors or styles. Then again, that would be boring ;) Now for an important word about security.... Last year one of my more vigilant players made me aware that it is possible for anyone to inspect locked chests on servers with only basic CSM knowledge. This means that confidential information in written books is vulnerable to intrusion. Fortunately, Books Redux addresses this very concern by encrypting the content of all written books and written papers via the Simple Cipher mod. This means that if anyone gains access to a copy of the map, without the server operator's private key, they won't be able to examine the personal correspondence of other players. Currently there is no way to automatically convert legacy books to the new format. It must be done manually by copying and pasting text into a new book.
