FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

I'm sure quite a lot of people visit / have visited /v/ and as you can see there is an increase in the amount of threads about minetest

/v/ rarely ever likes stuff but mintest is something they liked because;

- Notch is a fat lazy jew
- C++ > Java
- Moar FPS
- OPEN FUCKING SOURCE
- etc.

I'd be glad if the devs also checked those threads as there are kinda talented coders up there and many ideas are discussed in a minimal amount of time by a lot of people unlike the slow paced forums

Do they have any idea how to combat /v/andalism?

@Wolfgang,

combating griefing or /v/andalism is difficult.

In the case of this game, as it currently stands, I think there are more pressing issues than griefing.

So you don't play on public servers?

no, not really,

besides, the only thing that would really work would be a "territory" or "property" mod that basically restricted the removal and placement of blocks in certain areas to certain individuals

There's already a fork that includes clans and territory ownership: jachoo's fork.

make a Minetest version of this.

@Menche and Wolfgang....


What if we were to Use nails, mortar, ect. to attack/glue blocks to one another? that would prevent the petty theft of furnaces and/or bookshelves, and chests
