FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Hello all Minetest Community !

I don't have any time, so I will try to explain my problem as quickly as possible and as clearly as possible too...

I just started a server, and i'm looking for a simple mod that can protect area just like WorldGuard for Minecraft does,
It mean, simply select 2 pos, give user this area, and add owner to it...

I tested ShadowNinja advanced area's mod, but the problem is, when i create a new area, and assign a player to it, he cant dig in it without the interact privilege, and my goal here, is , that the player need to build only on the area he have, and not the entire world !

I ask you some help here, because Im a little confused :s

Thank you BTW !

Use the areas mod and own the whole world. Then give players their area.

I guess you would need a modified version of ShadowNinja's areas mod.

Interact would be granted by default, but you would be able to dig only in your areas, the mod would prevent all other diggings outside of your area or in other player's areas you are not allowed in.

On minetestville we just owned the whole map and gave players their plot. They were only able to do stuff on their plot except for things like buying from stores.

Only give interact privileges to the players you like.

or..

Use a mod (like LandRush protection) and force claiming to dig.

Interact is the privililege to interact with everything. Not (directly) related to Area Protection.

Firstly thank everybody to trying helping me :D

I never knew that you can own the whole map at once , it's a good thing , but I thinked about this , and I will prefer give interact privilege only to member's rank , in that fact , members can build everywhere except in others area and public place like spawn !
Thank you for this !

The interact privilege is really necessary in order to do anything at all. If you want a seperate system, where players can dig and build only in their area, you could give those not-yet-member-players a special priv, i.e. "newbie", and modify the areas mod so that players with that priv can't do anything elsewhere.
In general, servers work surprisingly well with the everybody-gets-interact-on-default setup as long as a good protection system is installed.

Thank you for your answer , but I still using the area protect mod by default , and simply protect my whole spawn area and then give players their area ! Thank you again for your help !
