so if a friend places a travelnet like this: station name: carl home network: land owner: carl what should my travelnet be look like to be connected to his? Enter the name of the new station (i.e. "Minds station"), the same network name (here: "land") and the owner name (here: &...

The spawn on this server has been moved out east of the East Street/Ring Road intersection. As such, the area surrounding the old spawn (accessible via the "Gridknot" and "Cityknot" Travelnet networks) has been renamed to "Central City". That's a very good idea. I even...

That's right. Anyone with the travelnet_attach priv can add travelnets to the networks of other players. That is what the "owned_by" input field is for.

I bet it will have bugs. Hey, please don't say things like that. If you think it will have bugs before the project is really started, you think it's funny? Might as well see that comment in a positive way :-) Any reasonably large (not trivial) programming porject *will* have bugs. They're hard to a...

Yes, I do not want to create decorative items. I want to create structures such as villages. That was my original intention as well, but it didn't prove to be practical. Most horizontal areas will not be large enough for your village anyway. And it's not exactly cheap to locate such areas. In the e...

In fact, these mobs are not "pre programmed" in any sense. They simply run tasks from a queue, and the tasks are written to enqueue "subtasks". These NPCs were not told to build any particular block, but rather were told to "find a place to live".The "find a place...

Update: The dirt road from cottages now comes with junctions, t-junctions and curves. https://forum.minetest.net/download/file.php?mode=view&id=7342 The dirt roads in mg_villages tended to look a bit odd after I lowered the gravel on the streets a bit (it's not a full node anymore). The idea wa...

That's a nice addition. That way it will become easier to figure out how to obtain certain items and materials. Unified_inventory is a very useful mod. It takes getting used to, but once that's managed, you don't want to miss it anymore.

As with the original, this server will also do periodic map shrinks with his same unexplore script to keep the map size small. He once sent me in private the entire map, a year old map and it was 267 megs. ESM on the other hand is about 5 gigabites, much too much to be read and written constantly, ...

I love the dome :) What was that sci-fi flic that had spaceships with flora-filled domes? The crews were ordered to jettison the domes, destroy them, then return to earth. A crew member of only one ship did not do that. The crew would race around the ship in buggies. That was "Silent running&q...

The screenshots look very nice. Sorry for posting in English, but my French is only sufficient to understand halfway what you write - and not good enough to actually say something.

Les constructions sonne manifique.

However, I think that by attaching a license at all you're sort of acknowledging that a license is significant In those situations it's mostly for the benefit of people who expect a liscence where I think none is warranted (i.e. just a simple node definition or very simple code). The text of the li...

The existing shape-based crafting system is good for basic gameplay. Even later on, quickly crafting a pick or a chest from a receipe stored in memory is usually the fastest and most convenient way. As soon as the amount of nodes increases, craft guides become necessary. Unified_inventory does a goo...

Baked clay is a very decorative building material, especially that version used on Xanandu. I'm undecided weather or not it ought to be included in the default game as the default game will always be lacking in regard to diversity of nodes. Yet...it really is a good and even somewhat realistic build...

I usually use WTFPL for very short pieces of code which could be considered examples/hints given to readers as to how things can be done. Something that doesn't really warrant its own liscence due to lack of Schöpfungshöhe (er...level of ingenuity/novelity) but gets WTFPL attached nevertheless so th...

Not exactly true, although most schematics are used that way and most of us don't care about the random factors that can be applied. Most of us don't know that is is possible or how it works. Didn't see any doc about this yet It is described in doc/lua_api.txt under "Schematic specifier"....

They both use L-Trees, which is buggy as far as I know. moretrees causes ugly shadows. Don't know how it is with trees_lib trees_lib just offers all known methods of placing trees - be it an algorithm, L-System or schematics (either file or table) The lib can optionally register all the necessary n...

You might also want to add the sea modpack. It comes with luminiscent flowers, shipwrecks, clams and the like and makes the sea bed far more intresting (and bright!) to look at. Also some mobs mod (underwater mobs) are great. There are a lot of fishes and some tiny, beautifuly jellyfish out there - ...

First of: Protection is *not* an expression of not trusting players. Protection can be helpful even to players who have no griefing at all in mind and just place a torch or dig something in order to get told who build that nice structure on that area they're currently exploring. And it does save tim...

Holding my nose and gag-reflex I temporarily permitted google and gstatic for the reCaptcha and successfully ''proved I'm not a robot'' time after time by clicking on flowers and chips and similar guff which helps them improve their algorithms ''all the better to spy on us.'' Maybe it needs a cooki...

Saving schematics for trees can also quite easily be done with my handle_schematics mod.

Hey, here are a few screenshots of buildings I've made... You may or may not like them. My building style has changed a lot since then. Looks nice. It's a relatively large area on a skyblock server, with many plants, a cobble building that's not bad (they often come in boring box style) and even fe...

protection_bypass: Not sure. That's no longer automaticly given. The priv made testing protection mods rather tricky, and mods or maps which rely on protection for gameplay reasons did not work due to the override. As for the other privs - never can't hurt to have shout even if there's no one liste...

The idea sounds very intresting. Some additional information as to which tree trunk a particular leaf thinks it belongs to would make lumberjack mods (cut the whole tree including leaves) more efficient and leave less leaves floating around. Leaf decay can be very slow at times on servers.

It's working now!!! Thank you so much :). Can I upload the paceful_npc with this fix? As the liscence seems to be WTFPL, you may well do that. But the best idea would be to fix the original repro, to create a pull request to peacful_npc on github and/or to contact jojoa1997 so that the main version...

Leider bietet Minetest nicht so viele gestalterische Mittel in Sachen Inneneinrichtungen, ich hoffe aber, es gefällt euch trotzdem. Minetest - in Zusammenhang mit nicht genug Inneneinrichtung? :-) Du hast nur noch nicht die richtigen Mods installiert. Homedecor bietet *sehr* viel an Inneneinrichtun...

Kann Deine Version von WorldEdit Gebäudeteile drehen ohne das mit dem Schraubendreher gedrehte Slap-Teile danach alle falsch liegen? Probier es doch einmal mit meinem handle_schematics-Mod. Das dürfte dafür ausgesprochen praktisch sein. Normale Drehungen sollte es gut hinbekommen. Bei Spiegelungen ...

The new desert cobble texture looks very nice.

Nice to see doors made out of diffrent wood types. Good doors are always nice to have in this game as they improve the appearance of simple houses a lot.

Nice small castle! But...robbers? Hope that was in past days and they're more civilized now :-)
