Save and teleport to locations using names instead of coordinates

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: priv:server /setgo <bookmark_name> (sets it using your position) /delgo <bookmark_name> (deletes the bookmark) priv:anyone /go <bookmark_name> (teleports anyone there, w or w/o teleport priv) /listgo (lists all the destionation names and coords)

...name them "warp", not "go", "go" is just stupid.
Also, the privilege for setting warps should be "setwarp", and "warp" to be allowed to use /warp. ;)

nice little mod, and good suggestions.

I think "go" is great. It makes sense to me. I want to go somewhere and the command takes me there and with a minimal amount of typing. Elegant simplicity.

if you bookmark a place "cityhall"

then /go cityhall makes perfect sense, and like he said, it's two characters shorter than "warp". Despite being a fan, not everyone's familiar with star trek and all its technobabble.

im also a little surprised, as a moderator, that you had time to post the same suggestion as last time, but not to move my thread to Releases :-/ I have 3 requests in Topic move pending approval, plus a much older request that was never treated and is now out of date. Im beginning to think Celeron needs more moderators.

Great mod! This makes it so much easier to travel between city’s.

Glad you broke madblocks into 4seasons & this

Why not name them beam instead of warp?

/beam
/bend

Please expand on the description, tweak the subject to match the forum's requirement (something like "[Mod] Bookmarks [bookmarks]" is sufficient), and also indicate to what parts the license applies. Also add a list of what this mod depends on.

description: save a location and teleport. i dont have a thesaurus.

[mod] bookmarks is fine. why would i need to write the name twice? most of the posts in Releases dont conform so wtf?

the license is WTFPL, there are no textures so again, wtf?

and it depends on nothing so i wrote nothing.

by **VanessaE** » Mon Jul 16, 2012 15:09

Sounds fine to me then :-) This is what I get for posting while tired. :-)

Topic moved. :-)

Dude, don't bite the hand that feeds you. :) If you think writing mods is a thankless job, try being a moderator. Plus I think Vanessa will make a really good moderator and help keep things moving forward. I should talk, I give moderators sass myself. ;)

Technically, I, along with every other modder, are the ones feeding the community in content. They should be making it easier for us, not harder to submit content.

But if you're sensing some mod animosity, it has nothing do w/ vanessa. Look further up the thread ;-)

Either way im done modding, it's no fun anymore, becoming too regimented.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To be honest yours and VanessaE's mods are my favorite mods. It can get boring building stuff out of cobble and wood. The sky is the limit with Madblocks, HomeDecor, and 3d Forniture! You guys are the ones making Minetest FUN! And your bookmark mod is awesome too! I just created a home server that we are building on and I can't imagine what it would be like without your mods. I was going to recommend that you be made a moderator as well, but I wasn't sure if that's what you wanted. You're probably the most creative contributor to Minetest and I and I'm sure a lot of others would be sad to see you stop writing mods.

Mod moved back, because Forum guidelines not followed

by **VanessaE** » Fri Jul 20, 2012 08:15

Post edited to fix errors. Should fit the guidelines now.

Moved

The download link at the top is dead. It now links to someone's bookmark list. I would recommend using something other than FileDropper, like Uppit, DataFileHost, or even ZippyShare.
