This thing runs like a dream. Even if the creator used a bit of AI help in the process, who cares? The point is that it works, and it works beautifully. Everything feels smooth and well-put-together, from the design to the performance.
I really appreciate how it makes simple commands like /giveme itemstring easier and more reliable—it saves time and just makes gameplay feel cleaner. You can tell a lot of care went into making it practical, not just fancy.
Honestly, this is the kind of mod that proves good ideas matter more than who—or what—writes the code. It gets the job done, and it does it better than most.
It’s the small details that make it special—the polish, the consistency, and how it feels like it actually belongs in the game rather than being tacked on. You can tell the creator actually thought about how players would use it day-to-day, not just how it looks on paper.
If future updates keep this same level of quality and effort, this mod’s gonna be one of those “must-have” staples everyone keeps in their mod folder. I seriously recommend it to anyone who wants smoother commands, smarter design, and a mod that just feels right. Keep on the good work :D
Its strange that you say this mod is polished and consistent, when I outline its code flaws and inconsistencies in my review. The code is inefficient actually. It checks things twice and uses unnecesary function calls.
I do admit it's a good idea, but there's another mod written by hand that does the same thing and more.
You talk about like the creator like she actually wrote the mod! She put a lot of effort into the prompt I guess. That must've been really hard, typing some words with her hands.
What about the using a field instead of a textarea? You can modify the string in the formspec. What if I accidentally press the keyboard? I have to run the command again. Not very well thought out.
Did you seriously AI generate this review? Are you really that lazy you can't even defend an AI generated mod without using AI? Do you realize how stupid that makes your review look? You can't even give an honest review.
Regardless of the little "AI vs human" feud going on here, I don't think this is a good review.
This review greatly exaggerates the simple (and indeed useful) feature this mod provides. I ended up checking the code to make sure I wasn't missing any features.
But no, it's really just a chatcommand to get an itemstring to be copied.
"Did you seriously AI generate this review? Are you really that lazy you can't even defend an AI generated mod without using AI? Do you realize how stupid that makes your review look? You can't even give an honest review." I love incouraging people, rather than putting them down. When you begin to code, you will need help. You doing this, is a little childish right now.. If they used AI, It works and it works. You're Being petty to judge a code sinceyou yourself can code. I never said I wrote it alone, or said "My orignal comment" simply, the mod works, and it doesnt crash.
local MODNAME = minetest.get_current_modname()
local function full_itemstring(stack)

-- Includes name, count, wear, metadata if present
return stack:to_string()

if not player then return false, "Player not found." end
local stack = player:get_wielded_item()
if stack:is_empty() then return false, "No item in hand." end
local istr = full_itemstring(stack)
show_form(name, istr) -- easy to copy via Ctrl+C
minetest.chat_send_player(name, "[itemstring] " .. istr) -- also in chat
return true, "Shown."
end
minetest.register_chatcommand("itemstring", {
description = "Show full itemstring for the item in your hand",
func = cmd_func,
})
minetest.register_chatcommand("is", {
description = "Alias for /itemstring",
func = cmd_func,
})
its too clean to be human. but at least it works and krugen also made such a mod. they all work :D
I didn't say I replied with or without AI, and I didnt say You couldn't code :D I was just making a statement you shouldn't judge because you know how to code well and others dont.

I can code. And you can actually reply to me without using an AI. Was that so hard?
