Oh, that. Yeah, a tetrahedron might look better there actually, though, I like these corners.
After I've seen it in your mod I wanted to add it anyway, maybe I'll make this a configuration what corners are used, and if there should be ramps at all. Thanks for the feedback.

Re: [Game] Australopithecus [Tech Demo]
The terrains are beautiful! Loved the beach and the caves. Thank you very much...wait, there's a beach near spawn? Guess I should take a longer walk around then. I noticed that when the terrain slope is diagonal, the outside corner slopes seem to sick out and make a sharp edges. In these cases a si...

Re: Voice: Makes the chat behave more like a voice.
Thanks. Yeah, I've seen yours, but I wanted different volumes and global should only be "out of game" possible.
Regarding versioning, the problem is not "how to do it" but "how to do it sanely" because currently my mods are moving too fast for a sane versioning scheme.

A replacement for the default chat system that makes it behave more like voices. That means you can only see the messages of other players if you're in a certain range to them. If you move out of this range, you might only get part of the messages, or nothing at all. How does it work? There are basi...

Yes, the mods would need to support that otherwise you'll have a really hard time. Though, Lua actually helps you there, as there are no private or protected variables in Lua, only local ones.

Re: [mod]rooms[git][rooms]

When I started out with Minetest I had such a similar idea in my head, you could create a "Cube" like world, though, it never passed the "that would be neat" stage in my mind.
