Pressure plate is slow
Maybe there's something I'm not understanding here about mesecon operation? I tried the Minecraft standard pressure plate in front of a door and it was so slow as to be unusable. Buttons seem to work fine, although I much prefer pressure plates to buttons. Visually, it appears that you have to stand...

How do grass blocks work?
I'm confused. The wiki only says "Grass will grow on dirt if it is exposed to sunlight or bright light after some time." http://wiki.minetest.net/Dirt_with_Grass And, after hours of trying to get some grass blocks to spread from one island in an ocean to another and seeing absolutely no pr...

Re: Convert MC resource/texture packs to Minetest!
I'm not sure the scoring system is right. I converted one texture pack and got, iirc, 405/415 for 98% and another texture pack was 405/438 for 94%. Seems to me the 405 number is the one that matters and, hypothetically, a pack could get 405/405 for 100% but still not actually be any better than the ...

Re: Convert MC resource/texture packs to Minetest!
Woo-hoo! This is great, having access to all the MC textures out there.
I actually imagined doing this, you know if my shell scripting skills were better and I wasn't such a lazy puke. I did think of Zenity and ImageMagik though. It's so fast I thought it was broken. :)

Boats being glitchy
Minecraft recently fixed the issue with boats and the similar problem with horses had in the game. That problem looks a lot like the one boats have in Minetest. My theory is that the problem was trying to sync a player with an object while they both moved through the world and they fixed it by remov...
