Just to be clear ..... iska is a player who is a moderator . Not a code modification applied to the server. The message "owned by iska" is just because the player being struck was in an area covered by a protection block owned by iska. By necessity, the public tree farms cannot be protecte...

Just to do a quick 'smell' check /estimate on the numbers: The Emporium area (2 dimensionally) is rougly 630x512 nodes. That gives us 322560 nodes^2 total area. A protection block covers 17x17 == 289 nodes^2 area. 322560 / 289 = 1116.12 protection blocks. So we're in rougly the right ball park. The ...

stefan is the name of minetest developer that built the release you're using. The key message for you is: "run: A fatal error occured: Failed to save block: database disk image is malformed" Your map.sqlite file is corrupt. *OR* perhaps you have 2 copies of minetest hitting the same map.sq...

For some reason i cannot join Xanadu anymore. It keeps telling "Connection Timed Out." while the server actually is on and players are online as well. Any ideas how to solve that? Can you ping the server? Since it opened up, there's been a lot more random crashes. Too many people using un...

Xanadu has hidden in the unknown galaxy. Down from a few hour back.. Hope Shiji make it back soon... but in the mean time, this is the progress of my new build. That's this guy over there, right? I spotted that while looking around waiting for a full map redraw to finish. Good thing the crater miss...

Oooo! An oppertunity to post this! https://xkcd.com/936/ It is very easy to get passwords for players who use short/weak passwords. IIRC MT doesn't have any built-in login rate limiting, this would have to be implemented via a mod. Ergo, if the server is not well maintained, or not well watched, you...

Troublemakers operating hacked clients, in order to maximize their troublemaking potential.

ABJ wrote:By the way, light question, hacked clients?

Hacked minetest clients enabling spamming, and other against-the-rules glitching.

Map ... "Blending" ? as in merging multiple maps? That's what I've been doing with mt.jjayr.com -- I built a merging tool in perl, that appends to a master copy of the file, an keeps all 'patches' seperate. It snapshots the file on a weekly basis, so If I have to rewind, I can. It turns ou...

I think i have one more frame beyond what you captured: https://mt.jjayr.com/mt/mt02-xanadu_old/map#4/2155/-601 That was one of last areas I mapped out before the great reset. The "fun with mapper topic" reminds me that I have not yet posted the timelapse from my project on the previous ma...

I tried that (mapping the whole map in one pass) .... once :) IIRC It took out my computer, requiring a reboot. The map on mt.jjayr.com site is also generated with the minetestmapper, but I'm doing it in chunks of 256x256, and then using imagemagick to stitch them into larger zoom levels https://mt....

And here I got some screenshots from a totally not dangerous laser built right before the last map reset. Speaking of the old map, Aurora was located at: https://mt.jjayr.com/mt/mt02-xanadu_old/map#5/-17706/-21890 Due to a change I made in the code I use to serve the map tiles, the old map was inad...

Wondering how to get interact on this server.. I know someone who would be very interested in playing here, and would save me a ton of work trying to make a mod on a theme I know nothing of :-p... Great work done on the modding! At spawn, there was an indication of clicking a bookshelf which seems ...

we started with a new map when minetest 0.4.14 came out this year. if you didn't login since then, then you are a "new" player. There was also a text-file reset (which includes player files) which took all our inventories back a few weeks. (this happened early last week or something?) I i...

We have a feature that stops new players from joining the server as well as kicking limited players off the server when the try to join... This can stop attacks but in the process limits the number of players on server... I am adding a new admin command to open/close these virtual borders at will. ...

i don't understand exactly what you mean, but farming by hand takes more actions than farming with a sword. on large scale farms, that makes a huge difference. =(^.^)= On that note -- I do wish Ten would nerf swords against dirt for this reason :) You have no idea how many times I end up 'digging' ...

That's a private IP address -- only you can reach that from your internal network. There are a few standard Private IP address ranges: 192.168.0.0/16, 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12. If your computer's IP address is set to that, then it's not reachable on the public internet. https://tools.ietf.org/html/...

http://mt.jjayr.com/mt/mt02-xanadu2016/map#5/5000/-5000 It's impressive to watch the build out from nothing but water to a pretty sizable city :) If i work out how to do it, this will be a priority time-lapse :) LOUIEVILLE is now open for all builders... Path: At spawn, enter the GOLD teleport pad....

Okay so we can kill In public areas such as tree farms? it know its annoying but I really have to know to be careful and to let other players know. IMHO, killing in public tree farms (or other similar community areas that cannot be protected) like that is technically legal, but it's not very nice. ...

afflatus -- what Processor are you running for your server and how many cores does it have? The old server was an Intel Celeron CPU B800 2 core w/ 3GB RAM and the new one is an AMD FX-6300 6 core also reporting 3GB RAM, but it is supposed to have 16GB (I will have to check that via the BIOS at some...

I'm taking a wild blind shot in the dark and suspecting some kind of cross-thread memory corruption?

A restart script is not the solution, it's a temporary workaround so we can all continue playing. Polling servers.minetest.net/list seems like taking a sledgehammer to a small moving target, I prefer amadin's idea of pinging the port directly, but it's a question of what works ultimately. AFA resta...

You have to be careful with that --- sometimes the server list service does not respond correctly ... I use a wrapper to connect to mine test servers and once in a great while the server list is down, or invalid, and it can't find the right server to connect to. *FOR THIS ISSUE*, a better solution m...

Could you remove the save that has that area, and then update the map again without visiting it? that way the cutoff could be high enough to see the really tall mountains. not to mention builds ;) I have a mechanism to 'mask' areas away from the map render, but it only works on x/z coordinates. I h...

Whoa. I though my corn farm on the old server was big. I have much to learn .... BTW, this is in bronze tp, follow the road away from the beach (over by derpypony's house) and keep going and you'll see a sign between two redwoods. Would be neat to have it on the overworld map like my ice tower in m...

The timestamp idea might work only on *lightly* loaded servers. Because as soon as you approach an area, the timers and other ABM's on the server fire, and change the map block. It'd cause a catch-22: you'd want to use the cache to load areas you're approaching, but as soon as you approach them the ...

⋅ Map was reset around 2016-03-26 ⋅ Map file was 30gb+ and had significant corruption making it's reuse difficult and unlikely There were several offers to rehost the map, but primarily due to those above reasons, it was declined. And subsequently to make space for the new map f...

You do not have to use the appstore to have apps... I've downloaded couple apps without the store, and these apps are NOT in the appstore too... Right -- of course. Sideloading's a thing. But because of the GPL issue, installing an official + legal MT app via the store will require some more work b...
