awesome mod,

but how can i remove a bookmark ??

Hi,

Copy the "go" button and input from the formspec, rename them to delete.

Then in the recieve fields function add a compule of lines to remove from the bookmarks file. Don't forget to pull request your changes. =)

I'll add a delete next week if nobody else has done it by then.

added a delete button

very awesome...
cool mod...

Seems Cool, and very helpful *after 5 minutes, play mt, set position near lava, dug more underground,got lost, went to position,...fell in dungeon masters.*

Wow, this is great! Thanks for making this. I'm also using your graphical home interface. They both make great ways to make sure players don't get trapped underground.

I think there might be an error. I keep logging in with random names, and I have permission to add and remove bookmarks without having given these new accounts the correct privilege. By the way, what is the correct privilege?

Thank you!

EDIT: Apparently, the problem is in Minetest or my server, not your mod. Any account with a name starting with a digit has full privileges. Oddly enough, it only seems to do that on my server, not other people's servers.

EDIT: Never mind, that doesn't seem to be the pattern anymore. Some new accounts can fly and set bookmarks, while others cannot. I'll have to get this figured out before I make the server public.

It may be because the client has the same IP as the server. Try connecting from another computer.

Yeah, it seems to be something along those lines. Last night, I started up the game in one window, and used another to connect to localhost. That seems to fix the problem as well. However, it doesn't explain the inconsistency. When connecting to the server by not specifying an address, the the account only SOMETIMES acts like it has all the privileges. About half of the accounts can fly and make bookmarks when I log in to them, and the other half cannot. I guess it doesn't matter at the moment, but it is something I want to look into later.

You mentioned that a privilege is needed to make bookmarks. What privilege do I need to bestow to allow someone to add and remove bookmarks?

Thanks!

you need to do:
/grant [player] server
or
/grant [player] all

Okay, so when you said you needed server privilege, you meant the privilege called server. I thought you meant a privilege ON the server, and hadn't specified which one. My bad.

Thanks!

Removed ?? Why ?
