Re: set spawn newplayer mod
It sounds like you have another mod that's providing a /spawn command. I don't know what MT does if more than one mod tries to register the same chat command, but I'd assume that one "wins" - the wrong one in this case. Disable all other mods that offer "/spawn" and try again.

Re: Remove saplings, water, and buckets?
If you just want to hide something from the creative inventory, you can add "not_in_creative_inventory=1" to its groups. For example, you might change: groups = {snappy = 3, flora = 1, attached_node = 1, grass = 1, flammable = 1}, To: groups = {snappy = 3, flora = 1, attached_node = 1, gra...

Re: Increasing number of chat messages seen at once
It would be nice (perhaps a feature request?) if F10 would actually open up a separate window, rather than a drop down console that completely obscures the screen. I think that would also allow a lot more flexibility in terms of gameplay, since the chat history could be relegated to the background,...

Re: Why the 32768 node limit?
IMO this excessive amount of nodes wouldn't be required if there was a possibility to swap node textures. Many mods have to register new nodes because of 3 differently colored pixels in a texture...
