FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Is there any possible way to change your username for single player worlds? If so please tell me how to do it. Thank You...

Start the singleplayer world in the Server tab, this way you can use another username.
But note: The server mode allows other players in the network to join your world

I doupt editing the client is a solution for you, so I'll leave it away.

Why not editing minetest.conf with "name = myname"?
The description says: Name of player, on a server this is the main admin.

Edit: ok the name tag just works in multiplayer worlds. Some comments in minetest.conf.example should be more specific :-P

This would have been nice if it worked.
When developing a mod that involves world generation it's very annoying to have to type"/grant singleplayer fly", "/grant singleplayer noclip", etc. every single time you create a new world and want to check the mapgen.
At least it would be faster to type if you could rename "singleplayer" to "p" or something like that.

Or default the grant command to the current player when only 1 argument is provided

/grant singleplayer all

Woh! Thanks, I didn't know that.
I'm still tempted to make a mod to alias that, though. "/gsa" or something like that would be so convenient.
