Do you have the latest treecapitator installed ?
I remember i was about to debug treecapitator for the server, but i needed to get away from minetest.
I will setup the same mods as the server on my local machine to debug it.

If you know phpBB3 and would like to host any G-rated forum here, you can email: me@minetest.org If the email doesn't work, find out who's taken over Final Minetest from OldCoder and email them to get write access or an admin account.
I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.

Re: Map unexplore python script

Re: Un-explore the world ?
minetest map file format needs to be appended with two fields per chunk:
update -> the date of the last update this chunk received.
modified -> weather this chunk was modified from the one generated by the mapgen.
with both field we can write map shrinkers.

Re: Lua Threads for Computer Mod
You are saying that as the sandbox used in deserialize is empty, this would prevent you from having a pre-loaded environment. But i already know that. You might very well append the whole environment at the header of the code sent to deserialize. The only problem is the lack of multithreading abilit...

Re: Lua Threads for Computer Mod
I downloaded minetest source code to search how does minetest.deserialize works.
The idea was to create an alternative minetest.sandbox call that would return a sandboxed lua from C++ code, cutting the complexity of this project.
I couldnt find minetest.deserialize source yet.

Re: Lua Threads for Computer Mod
Has nothing to do with deserializing. minetest.deserialize runs inside a trully sandboxed lua. This means that it EXECUTES code that is provided as parameter. But it does so inside a sandbox environment, and returns the value. If you check minetest.serialize, you will see that the serialized format ...

Re: Lua Threads for Computer Mod
If you trully want a sandboxed environment, use minetest.deserialize()
Its was created for other uses. Parse your lua sourcecode and feed it to minetest.deserialize()
You will be only able to talk to it via its return value. But works.
