PvP support?

by bbmario » Mon Oct 27, 2014 03:17

Is there built-in PvP support in minetest? Can players kill each other? Also, are there any examples of projectile weapons? (guns, arrows, etc)?

PvP is turned on and off in minetest.conf.
For projectiles try throwing and guns

They are in mods. Minetest is built for modding. Just drag and drop them in. (See Installing Mods)

Throwing - bows and arrows
Firearms

Beware, PvP is all-or-nothing, you can't disable it (or enable it if it's globally disabled) in specific areas.

2015-02-18: as Wuzzy stated, there are various hacks to disable PvP in specific areas.

You could make a mod to place penalties for punching in areas, or reverse the health lost.

PvP support is built in in Minetest, but it is disabled by default.
To enable PvP, change the value of the server setting (minetest.conf) “enable_pvp” to “true”.

Simply edit minetest.conf and make sure this line is present:
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
enable_pvp = true


But make sure that there is only one line with “enable_pvp” in it. “enable_pvp = false” means PvP is disabled. If the line is missing, this means PvP is disabled.


The other questions have been dealt with.


@Calinou:
PvP can't disabled in certain areas?

Oh, then explain me how the VikingCrafters server managed to do so. In the VikingCrafters server, there is a small area where PvP is disabled, it is the shop near the spawn.

Probably there is some mod trickery at work here. ;-)

Muhahaha, English sucks.

Not neccessarily.

It depends on the server rules, you may get kicked or whatever, or it may be tolerated.
