In the first post redcrab wrote:Self-protection request

All player that have "interact" (build) privilege is able to protect area by himself.
No need to request node protection on forum nor to privileged user (cactuz or myself)

When you're in-world, type the command /protect xstart,ystart,zstart xend,yend,zend

Example :
to protect an area from 1200,-30,850 to 1230,50,880 type
/protect 1200,-30,850 1230,50,880

This command has restrictions :
1) you can't protect by yourself more than 2 areas: define your areas wisely
2) if you currently have 2 or more protected areas you can't request more areas by yourself
3) area size can't be bigger than 32x128x32 (x, y, z sizes respectively)

/list_areas and /remove_areas works with /protect

Do not include decimals. It should be

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.
Code: Select all
512, 20, 82 221, 12, -61

This is what I typed: /protect x,512y,20z,82 x,221y,12z,-61 <is that correct?? I'm really sorry if I'm wasting your guys' time.

Don't worry about our time :)

Your area is too big. Maximum self-protect area is 32x128x32.

Btw: Your area is colliding with the Water Pyramid area.

Ok. My new sizes are: 512 20 82, 528 20 59. Thanks for your help :)

Where am I colliding with the Water Pyramid???

Wow! I think this is great idea!

- "fly", "fast" and "telepotrt" for everyone (and maybe "giveme")
- no protection (except close spawn area - to prevent blocking spawn)
- map copied every week from main server

Advantages:
+ Easy exploring
+ At least part of greifers could riot
+ Testing new mods and versions of Minetest, without risk of damage original world.

Disadvantages:
- I don't know if server will handle new CPU and HDD load.

I hard he has 5 servers. I think replacing one of the unused server with this wouldn't do much to hardware, and I think it will be more popular with new map every week.

CAN WE PLEASE HAVE THE OPTION TO REMOVE OWNERS!?!?

That would be most helpful in some cases.

What do you mean?
If you want to remove your own area, type: /remove_areas <area_ID>

I told redcrab about your idea.

When we add owners to an area, I think we should be able to remove them.

2 blocks of Sand has spawned at 'spawn', and it is protected so we can't remove it. Please fix.

I think the server would be better with the carts mod.

NOOGAH YOU WANT TO REMOVE ME

PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS!

I have a grief report at coordinates -1108,36,-1010

KoalaBear, a resident and subowner of my fort, built a house on this spot. S/he later reported that the house had been entirely removed, along with everything inside of it.

I checked, and it is entirely true.

No, I want emergency grief protection.

by **KoalaBear** » Mon Mar 18, 2013 02:35

Dear Noogah,
First of all, thank you for letting me join your village!
Second, the house i built in the village is now completely gone, including everything in the locked chests inside it, which represented roughly 90% of all my minetest possesions. I don't know if it was you, someone else, or a map bug, but this is very dissapointing.
Sincerely,
KoalaBear

by **KoalaBear** » Mon Mar 18, 2013 03:42

Thank you for verifying what i said, Noogah

by **Sokomine** » Mon Mar 18, 2013 04:18

To my knowledge, there have been grief reports where KoalaBear was responsible and thus he was rolled back. Depending on when the house was built, it may have gone due to rollback.

If anyone hits land # 568 while gigging a tunnel, tell Reverand or Me (ch98) for the land. If it does not go to surface inside the land, it will be allowed. (I want only 1 entrance to that place. sorry)

Let me explain:
You griefed road, so I rolled back ALL your actions, I should ban you for that but I think losing all buildings is enough punishment.

thank you! That was a helpful post. I hope others will follow (if not in posting than at least in behaviour, that is - fascilitate building of roads). Not going to the surface is a perfectly reasonable request. So thank you! And build something nice :-))
