Installed this on my creative server because I had to remove some stray locked chests, iron doors and unknown blocks, only to find that my users would run amuck with the stupid admin wand.
So much for "admin" tools if everyone gets to use them!

Re: [IDEA] Random first spawn
I made this some while ago: https://github.com/casimirkapazi/spawnarea But you always spawn somewhere else, which to me seems more interesting. Spawning at a random location on each login can be fun, but if you have built yourself a home and are working towards a certain set goal, like for example ...

[IDEA] Random first spawn
One of the things that I dislike on servers is that people spawn in, then stay close to their original spawn point, never exploring the rest of the world. Because of this I have wished for the ability to have people spawn in at random locations on the already explored map OR within a predetermined a...

[SCRIPT] Build Minetest in Linux, newbie friendly!
I wrote a script to build Minetest on Debian systems a long time ago.

Re: [Modpack] Villages modpack (contains mg_villages)
I checked my build environment, and as it turned out, luajit was indeed not installed.
I don't know why, because I know that I installed it a long time ago. I have (re-)installed luajit-dev and and recompiled and now all appears to be honky-dory.

Re: [Mod]mymonths[mymonths]
Suggestion 1: Add a calendar node to display the date. Pointing at the calendar could show the date, and/or punching the calendar could show a formspec showing the days of the month with the current day highlighted. Suggestion 2: Display the date on the HUD Just some ideas as I played with the mod :-)

I don't know for sure why you're not seeing any regular flowers, but I know you use the mg mod on some of your worlds. Since that mod supplies a custom mapgen, could it be the reason? I don't know what its settings are regarding flowers. mg definitely added flowers to the (green) biomes, but with p...
