Woah.

THAT'S AWESOME!
I have a suggestion:
/ping - sends back PONG!
/whisper - only send a message to a specific user
/tpa - teleport to a specific player. They have to do /tpaaccept or /tpadeny.
/spawn - go to spawn

:D

Suggestions:

/healme
/wit as an alias for /whatisthis
/bcast as an alias for /broadcast

Suggestions:

/healme
/wit as an alias for /whatisthis
/bcast as an alias for /broadcast

When run without arguments, /heal will heal the player who issued the command.

Is there a simple way to make a command an alias to another one using the API? If so I'll definitely include the aliases you suggested.

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

local function cmd(name, params)
    stuff here
end

minetest.register_chatcommand("one", {
    func = cmd
})

minetest.register_chatcommand("two", {
    func = cmd
})

Do you can add a time delay to spawn teleport? It will be good for pvp servers.

Noob question but how do I set spawn?

That still didn't work :/

I assume you're talking about the /spawn command. It teleports you to the static spawnpoint, which is set in minetest.conf (see the static_spawnpoint setting). If static_spawnpoint is not set in minetest.conf, /spawn will not be available.

+3 Me likey.

[amadin]

Do you can add an option for using /spawn only once in 15 minutes (for example)?

[asanetargoss]

I've found the /whatisthis command to be very useful.

kidmondo add this mod, than go to were you want the spawn to be and do /setspawn.
after that when you die or you do the /spawn command you will teleport there

I'll give a try to this usefull mod !
The /gettime - Get current time of day is not the same result as the /time command ?
