Re: Should we rename Minetest? (poll)

This would cause a shit-ton ow work in the API and will affect all mods ever released. There either has to be an uber fat compatibility layer or a hard cut. Nope. If you renamed the namespace, it would be a one line fix for backwards compatibility: minetest = newname So IF there ever will be a rena...

Re: Removal of Nyan Cats: how to preserve them in worlds

I call bullshit on that one. If the users end up with <unknown node> by default , this is a sign of shoddy design. I also disagree with your reasoning in the issue, it doesn't address my other concerns. You could add an alias to the old nyan cat nodes UNLESS the nyancat mod is found. Meaning: No ny...

Re: Client-sided modding: Good or bad?

the exact same way as on a client, except you'll need to manually enable them by adding:

Re: Server mods

Nearly all mods will support multiplayer, due to how Minetest is designed. All games are actually multiplayer from the code's point of view, it's just that singleplayer only allows one player to join (with the name of "singleplayer")

There is a Minetest clone - it's called Hexahedra: https://github.com/Nocte-/hexahedra
The author was inspired by Minetest.

All the games above are forks, however.

Re: [Mod] Chat plus [2.3] [chatplus] – Now two mods, bug fix

I spoke too soon: Now the release clients get their chat echoed two times. Is this an EITHER case, where you could either support 0.4.15-release OR 0.4.15-dev, but not both? Afaik there's no way of detecting whether a client will print the chat message before sending it, so yes: I can only support ...

linuxdirk's comments demonstrates a lack of understanding. Please read the api and see what you can actually do. Client side mods can't be used for privilege escalation currently.

Re: [Clientmod] Oredetection [oredetect]

This was already possible before, it just required c++ modifications. Being able to read nodes does have benefits - such as client side environmental sounds.

When you refer to minecraft mods you're referring to patches, and when you refer to minetest mods you're referring to plugins. Patches are more powerful than plugins as they can change almost any part of the code, whereas plugins can only change what is exposed to them. It's also possible to create ...
