Traincraft minecraft 1.6.2 code#
I’ve tried to do this with a few projects all of which I’ve made open source and distributed on github, a code sharing platform Cloudmaker, RF-Craft, WhitCraft and ShrimpCraft. Perhaps the most important thing I think is useful to anything is designing a solution to a set of problems or questions: set yourself the problem of making a train that behaves like a real train from 1m virtual blocks and it takes a fair bit of creative thinking to make a solution you are happy with.
Most importantly playing with python in the context of Minecraft gives you a framework to do the most useful kind of learning: learning by design & experimentation, in a language (Minecraft) that you are comfortable with. It would be unrealistic to think that young people taking part in this sort of thing will be using python 2.7/3 in their jobs of the future but doing the sort of level of programming the Raspberry Pi and mcpi community gets you used to some basic ideas in computer science. There is a lot of momentum to teach kids code but I prefer to think of what people are doing in the maker/coding/education world as a sort of data literacy. I’ve been working on a few projects that use mcpi like this, to share ideas around the Internet Of Things and basic programming.

See the MSI website for details of how to take part. Then there’s a carriage building game for 3 players and a python model of a level crossing. O’Hanlon on his website and in his book he wrote with David Whale.įor MakeFest ew’ve made a working train you can control with a minecraft Radio messaging system, RF-Craft, to work with some special laser-cut buttons and augmented oil lamps from the MSI handling collection. Some of the most interesting work has used the Raspberry Pi version of the game and the marvelous python Minecraft API, mcpi distributed and supported by some great tutorials and code written by Martin Over the past few years a community of makers, developers, artists, designers, gamers and educators have been exploring interesting ways to bring the ‘real world’ into Minecraft, which I’ve been calling The Minecraft Of Things. I’ll be leading on a series of workshops at MSIMakeFest on August 20th & 21st using the Raspberry Pi version of Minecraft and Martin O’Hanlon’s mcpi API to celebrate the first railway journeys between Liverpool and Manchester.
