[h]Server online again[/h]

by **lexiepedia** » Mon May 20, 2013 19:58

it's the best game of minetest and nobody plays it!!! come on!

by **MasterChief** » Wed May 22, 2013 15:07

hey the map is still full of lava i thought you reset it

by **sfan5** » Wed May 22, 2013 15:32

Done!

There's lava again on the starting area... I think you should remove the lava bucket too, but first, read this.

I've got some suggestions:

- Make it so that to start a new game, you would have a certain amount of time to /vote to get into the round. This would eliminate the possibility of one person not voting, causing everyone to wait for them. (happens a lot)

- Allow interacting with the environment. (Mining, food gathering, etc.) But, this would also mean that those mining can dig under the wall, so there would have to be a wall on the bottom...

- Make the map reset after each round so that there will still be a wall, a definite spawn point, and randomly scattered chests on the surface and caves. (this will allow environment-destroying things like fire arrows and lava buckets be ok)

- Maybe add mobs? Animals would give food, hostile mobs would challenge your survival skills.

It's a really great server, one of my favs for sure, but it could be so much better.

Oh yeah, and I also burned down the house for the spectators with a fire arrow... sorry about that. :S But, I guess this kinda proves my point.

I have added some of your suggestions to the latest version of hungry_games.
https://github.com/Splizard/hungry_games/commits/master
There is now a 5min max wait for voters, so no more waiting on one person.
I have added configuration options to the game to support digging blocks and the wall going through the ground.
It is sfan5's choice to activate that (Note @sfan5: if you do want to configure aspects of hungry_games edit the init.lua file in the hungry_games mod. You can remove lava buckets from chests this way)
Also now when you start a game lava source blocks will be automaticly removed within 20 blocks of player spawns.

It would be nice if it also removed lava flowing blocks

Done

Is this server still active? Me and a few other people have gotten on, but have died because we don't have any privs.

by **sfan5** » Sat Jul 20, 2013 21:01

Down for some time, because I go on vacation

by **Nubelite** » Sun Jul 21, 2013 15:04

i was looking around the serves and saw this, looks like fun. just had an idea while reading that might work out. for griefing help you can build an island in the sky and have lava covering the ground under it so you dont have to worrk about a wall. for weapons you can have then randomly scattered around the island.

for the island you could also use several nukes from the nuke mod to set the world up by digging out the land to form an island. and then put a ton of lava under and around it. then disable water and lava buckets and it should work out well.

as soon as i get my hands-on minetest im going to start playing this server!!!

by **Wuzzy** » Fri Sep 13, 2013 23:32

Oh my glob, this server is awesome!

I saw this server in the server list and read “Hunger Games”. I thought I just give it a shot. I joined and instantly pwned the whole server. lol

At one round the players conspired against me. Yeah, in this round I died. :D

For some reason some players think I am cheating but these accusations are bullshit. The “proofs” are not proofs at all. Someone even suggested that I “have fast on” (whatever that means).

Whatever, this server rocks and I will certainly give it a shot again. :)

Edit:
I noticed that each time I join, some error messages appear which state that Minetest was not able to load the following images:

food_soup_chicken_raw.png
moreores_tool_mithrilswort.png

Nothing really serious, but it is slightly annoying.

by **sfan5** » Mon Sep 30, 2013 17:45

The problems with this server have been fixed!
It also uses the default map instead of the Halloween map now

by **sfan5** » Sun Nov 24, 2013 11:29

Server updated to 0.4.8

by **stormchaser3000** » Wed Dec 18, 2013 02:08

sfan5 i think i was banned by a hacker and it didn't look like the server shut down i was jst disconnected and i could not rejoin. and you werent on there and i don't think there are an moderators. all i was doing was helping people type /vote

by **rommiekerova** » Fri Dec 20, 2013 18:00

We seem to starve a lot in the lobby. maybe you should stop this from happening. It means we can start off with only half a heart and thats kinda unfair.

by **Splizard** » Sat Dec 21, 2013 07:39

I have updated the github version of hungry_games to the latest minetest (0.4.8) 3d_armour and to fix rommiekerova's reported bug.
