FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

yeah, cron
or you could just update the files whenever you restart the server
(is there an event onPlayerJoin(name) or similar?)

a) how can you access the forum-accounts
b) that was exactly what i was thinking of
c) there is no real need to patch minetest,
with unix-basics do can do it on your own

Yeah, but WICH minetest server? thats the problem, the forum is one central collection of accounts

can you put this on github please? it would be much easier to update

maybee it would be better to split up the texure-repos and the code-repos
someone could write a nice litle database& webfronted for users to upload their textures (c55 would need to host it to have some for of authentication via the forum-accounts) and everybody could pull those texures

ah, im sorry, i missunderstood you, i thougth it would add those functionalities as i.e. an command not as an "pet"
then its allright with me to put it into one mod of cause

I know its complicated, i know how tools work in minetest :D thanks for the double-drops. that was just an idea, im shure there is a lot more you could do to -ench- "specialize" your tools. please dont! split it up in seperate ones, its a lot better: ⋅ admins can add it in portions ⋅&...

nice idea!
add things like double-drop or faster mining
and add a glowing mese-pickaxe as an ultimate upgrade wich you can only get for xp (take the code from walking light or torch or however it was called)

this in fact makes me feel some pain…

i found the problem, as you can clearly see in the postet image you are using a bugged mod called "internet explorer"!

i dont think this is gona be a problem, pilzadam will allow others to add stuffs to his minetest_game

have you read https://help.github.com/articles/what-is-my-disk-quota ? because it clearly says that there is a seperate download-zone where you can put your releases

@Neuromancer:
please dont put a .zip into your main repos on github. (https://help.github.com/articles/what-is-my-disk-quota)
and please dont store old versions of files in there (init.lua) thats what an vcs is good for.

yes, otherwise it wont start, that is why they are called dependencies.

can you move mineconomy to a seperate repos?
thankyou!

Actualy you can allow more then one person to edit one repos, its not limited to its owner but celeron55 does not do that, and thats why there are 150 minetest-forks.

i think there is such a mod in minecraft

its not about learning c++, thats just the syntax. its about building a game-engine instead of just adding content inside of an fully managed script-environment. thats a HUGE difference, and i dont think that i would want random people to change the engine, nor would i want that from c55 perspective...

it would be better to check for a cetrain height and a row of ~10 blocks in front of it to be free but that might turn out to be quite slow…

yes it is, its basicly multiplayer, just withe the difference that you are starting a local server without any other players

@gambit: while that might be quite much impossible to find out without talking to the author for gloopores its easy for moreores ( http://minetest.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=549 ) as its listed on the post

let me cite: "the upload."
so its network-based (crappy upload…)

PLEASE: tune down the amount of particles spawned to 5 or random(7,3)
i have chaned it on my server because it just killed the upload.

i dont think that those patterns would be the right choice, especaly as im not shure if a continous generation of landscape would be possible. i do think the perlin-noise needs some fine-tuning (or, as mentioned some cool system like biomes but it would not be as easy as that as we have a f*ng gigan...

it looks uniqe, please release soon!

Thankyou for the texturepack, i rly like it, but there are some points i would love to see improved: - release of 2.0 - compression of the textures via optipng (or just send them to me, im gona compress them and send them back), wich would save a lot of bandwidth for server-admins - add support for ...
