Maiki - Done

The new mapgen is looking pretty good. But there are a few more things that I would like to change before testing it out. May be ready by Sunday night. I hope.

Images posted here because I don't see a way to attach pics to forum PMs.

I've made a mapgen that does mostly what I want. I am sending it to maikerumine now so that he can tweak it. Then if everything looks ok, I will make it the new map. So this is your advance notice right now. I will run the old map on port 30,001. Players can then either: PM me on this forum the coor...

The money2 mod creates a file for each player.

Having a world-specific directory for mod data would be nice. I don't know if that is possible or not. I haven't tried it yet. I will try this soon and hope I don't mess things up too badly.

I just saw maiki's video of my server https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAPUh6djI1Q I love his videos though I rarely watch them until the end. I watched this entire video. I'm glad he likes my server :) However, he does quickly discover the limits of what I have done and he found several flaws that I...

Thanks.

Yes there is dirt. Lots of it underground and under water where the hot sun has not baked it dry and turned it into sand.

Also:
Beds now work.
Vending machines now work also. See my first post for more details.

MT server - 0.4.13-git version Linux 64-bit I removed games/minetest_game/mods/beds and installed this mod in a specific worldmod folder. That folder works fine for other mods. This bed mod still has the floating through the floor problem. It doesn't happen all the time. But I do have to log out the...

Thank you for letting us know what happened to your server.

Who is Mike and where is his server?

I'm sure there are many players that will be happy to see JustTest back online and eager to put your new ideas to good use. And likely many eager to find exploits in them hehe. Oh well.

Ok. Thanks

You are very welcome to come play :) I will look at that mod. I am using the default farming mod with changes made to it. I decided on a desert world as a theme but mapgen isn't cooperating by not generating trees, grassy dirt, and other unwanted nodes. I quickly learned to not use world_edit's gui....

Scenario: This world has experienced catastrophic global warming. The human population has been decimated along with most of the plant and animal life because of the extreme heat and shortage of water. Do you have what it takes to build a base that provides shelter, food, and water and survive? To ...

I watch the server lists and have noticed a large decline in the number of players. From what I'm hearing, some players can't play on JT anymore because their mobile devices don't have the memory to hold the textures of items that have been added to the server during the updates. Others are fed up w...

Ok. That dead when I log in bug has GOT to be fixed!
I was fine until the midnight reset. but when I logged back in I was dead and I lost a lot of stuff.
Shut the server down and leave it down until it's fixed. Unplayable :(
I'll laugh about this in a little bit but not right now :)
bye

/me sharpens sword. Then gathers other hunting supplies.

I have a whopping 6 hides so far. Long ways to go.

Cutting granite and marble on a circular saw that is designed for cutting lumber. Hmmm, Ok haha. I think rnd needs to make a CNC milling machine for stonework :) I see that the 'world edit' button is finally gone. Good. I played around with wolrd edit on a server I set up. Whoever made that mod need...

I timed out while starting to work on a marble and granite retaining wall. When I logged back in, I was dead. No creatures or players around to have killed me. When I returned from spawn, i discovered that I had no bones! I lost a lot of marble and granite. I am NOT happy about that. At least I didn...

My two cents: I agree. Doing away with bags on a server with lots of stuff and likely more to come will be a mistake. Making larger bags out of more exotic materials is an interesting twist. Maybe wipe out everybody's bags this weekend and do this hehe >:) If deleting 'old' player files causes playe...

rnd - If lag or someone with the kick and/or ban privs was there 24/7, I would agree to remove douchebag A ASAP and keep him off. As it is, he has a valid point. "Know Your Enemy" is a good thing to do when conducting a war. Make no mistake, lag IS at war over control of his own server! At...

asia has a wee bit of anger because she can't play there yet again :( I understand. lag - I don't know what you know so I'll state a few things that I hope that you will consider. Besides what I've already mentioned. Beds don't work anymore for respawning there after death. If asia can't log in, I t...

"lag has to ...", "lag has to ..." Yes, you lost a lot BlueFireUn. Guess what? So have a lot of other players. I'm just no longer the last one that had it happen to. And seemingly ignored. If lag "has to" do all that what about restoring gd's storeroom and all it's cont...

JustTest will vanish one day. just like all other servers. If you want to save your creations, set 'local_map_saving = true' in your minetest.conf file. Then walk around and in what you want saved. After that, it is up to you to find a way to permanently save it and use it elsewhere. Remember to tur...

Maiki's video: Rated 'R' for Strong Language :) I don't blame maiki for cussing. I am also and so are many other players. I see that JustTest is down. GOOD! I hope lag is working on the problems. Being an admin can be time consuming and aggravating. I wouldn't be surprised if after 3? years of runni...

I don't know about allowing City Block Owners to escape jailing. Might be best to move the jailing code to the protection block code. If City Block owners are immune to jailing, then gold_digger(me) will soon be immune anywhere near spawn. I'm sure there are players that would not like that :) Sands...

No. I like lava and water sources. Makes nice decorations. City Blocks protect from -4? blocks under them all the way up to infinity. So some City Blocks placed by others are now only local backup for if or when my City Blocks get destroyed. Spawn has City Blocks surrounding it now. That's why edub ...

My concern about someone that uses no_clip is that the cheater could have gone through your mining area and removed all the mese and diamonds leaving none for you to find. Just imagine how much area the cheater could quickly go through generating a really large map database file. I'm sure admins lov...

That's a long video haha. It is easy to get those items quickly when you use a cheat that gives you no_clip and whatever it is that lets you see diamonds and mese or whatever you wish through the stone. gold_digger visited me and asia while we were mining once. He disappeared for a few minutes befor...

For those that actually read this forum, gold_digger is not the original gold_digger but is 843jdc. gold_digger gave me his account on the condition that asia14 and I use it to make his areas better. I am letting asia14 'decorate' while I find, store, and sort gold-digger's possessions so that I can...
