Am liking the way it looks. Not sure about the way it works. So it connects to the nearest detected gate. So i wouldn't be able to go from 1 to 3 if 2 is closer to 1. You could fix this by linking gates. Your description on how it works is not clear to me. So you can set destination but you can also...

It actually works. I have been using the spotlights which shines upward. Too bad you can't place anything ontop of it while the lights are on. What do spotlights do exactly and why is it not diggable? Are they the same as spotlights but then downward? I notice how some lights have a yellow-ish glow ...

Nice and thank you, I assume they are "free" as Hedgewars is opensource too. Giving flags different functions is cool. If a person wants to burn a flag, they are most likely burning flags, not playing Minetest. :P All country flags will be treated equally! And for aesthetic reasons will be burnable....

Cool remix. Will check it out. And will keep my eyes on this. Making such crazy versions of the game can lead to some awesome gameplay. One ABM that I would propose is the dirt turning to dirt_with_grass. What about big flying islands, with flat top, forests and lakes on it? What happened to flying ...

These letters look severely. I'm open to suggestions, what color background and the letters should be used. Maybe I should use the one of standard textures as a background? You could overlay the letters and make the drawable on several types of surfaces. There is this "background.png^letter.png" th...

Looks neat. Would be really cool if you could actually paint :P Nice improvement on the sim paint mod. Not just craft them but you first have to make an easel. Also a good alternative to breaking the node and rehanging. If you let me know when it's done i will contribute MANY MANY paintings of diffe...

I'm thinking of the possibilities minetest has to make good adventure maps. This mod gives designers the possibility to force players to choose what item they are going to spend there golden coins on.

To me minetest is a good 3 dimensional malmuable world in which different concepts can be thought out and tried out. The one plays as architect, the other more of an adventure and the other as a mesecon engineer, etc. To everyone this game is something else. The only thing that will make this game b...

An octree system would allow something like that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octree Octrees were used in the game Sauerbraten for multires cube-based worlds. Just checked the wiki. I correct myself. When you shrink you get 8 blocks for 1. The wiki clearly shows how stuff is scaled down. Furthermo...

Now with the new vines mod you can just climb your way out of it. Fell in a cave? Let your teammate throw you a rope. Working on a high altitude project? Use the rope to get down and climb up. Making an adventure map? Make your levels more traverse-able and dynamic. https://raw.githubusercontent.co...
