#Minecraft - Raspberry Pi Edition minecraft

##Instructions For this task you will need to have minecraft setup on your raspberry pi. To do this you should will need an internet connection ideally on your pi. (if you can't do this at home, try setting up at school).

To install and run minecraft pi open an LXterminal window and enter the following commands:

Install

install
wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/assets.minecraft.net/pi/minecraft-pi-0.1.1.tar.gz
tar xvfz minecraft-pi-0.1.1.tar.gz
cd mcpi
chmod +x minecraft-pi

Run

cd mcpi
minecraft-pi

##Grading

Grade What must I do?
D I will be able to install and run minecraft-pi, run,adapt and comment the location finder program.
C I will be able to run,adapt and comment the house builder program.
B I will be able to run,adapt and comment the tunnelling program.
A/A* I will have completed the first 3 tasks and made something cool! It will take some of what I have learnt and used it in a new way.

##Your tasks ###1 - Find you location. With minecraft Pi running, in a world and paused. Open idle, create a new program and enter this code:

import mcpi.minecraft as minecraft 
import time 
mc = minecraft.Minecraft.create("localhost") 
 
while True: 
 time.sleep(1.0) 
 pos = mc.player.getPos() 
 print pos.x, pos.y, pos.z

When you save it, it must be stored in the mcpi/api/python directory, otherwise it won't work. The code should display your minecraft location in your python window.

  • Can you make it post these co-ordinates to chat instead?
  • Can you comment each line to show you understand what the code does.
  • replace the playerPos code with your own version and commit.

###2 - Build a house Try the house code, currently it places 3 obsidian blocks near the player.

import mcpi.minecraft as minecraft 
from mcpi.block import * 
 
mc = minecraft.Minecraft.create("localhost") 
 
x = 38 # vertical 
y = 0 # height from sea level 
z = 7.7 # horizontal 
mc.player.setPos(x, y, z) 
 
mc.setBlock(x, y, z, GLOWING_OBSIDIAN) 
mc.setBlock(x, y, z+2, GLOWING_OBSIDIAN) 
mc.setBlock(x, y, z+4, GLOWING_OBSIDIAN)
  • Can you adapt the code to build a simple house, it should be at least 3x5 in size and ideal made from different materials.
  • Can you comment each line to show you understand what the code does.
  • replace the house.py code with your own version and commit.

###3 - Rapid Tunnels Try the tunnel code, currently it places 3 obsidian blocks near the player.

import mcpi.minecraft as minecraft 
from mcpi.block import * 
 
mc = minecraft.Minecraft.create("localhost") 
 
x = 38 # vertical 
y = 0 # height from sea level 
z = 7.7 # horizontal 
mc.player.setPos(x, y, z) 
 
mc.setBlock(x, y, z, AIR)
  • Can you adapt the code to constantly delete blocks around you to create a program which will tunnel for you.
  • Can you comment each line to show you understand what the code does.
  • replace the tunnel.py code with your own version and commit.

###4 - Do something cool Do something new and cool and save the code you created over the cool file.
