Here it is: an enhanced server-side max-viewing distance.
I think this would reduce the amount of active blocks in the server's memory,
thus enabling a steady flow out to all of the connected clients.
It would be tapered down according to how many are connected.
example: 2 people on, max view 160
6 people on: max view 120
10 people on: max view 100
The owner of the server can determine the best numbers for smooth game-play.

This is a mostly frozen copy of the Minetest forums through 2017. If you know phpBB3 and would like to host any G-rated forum here, you can email: me@minetest.org If the email doesn't work, find out who's taken over Final Minetest from OldCoder and email them to get write access or an admin account.
I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.
Whether the temperature is high or low, regardless of cold winds blow,
away we go like Edgar Allan Poe, on now with the show. BTW rhymes are welcome.
An idea to reduce lag.

There is a setting in minetest.conf for this: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/minetest.conf.example#L236
You can use the /set command ingame to change it, or write a simple mod for this that uses minetest.setting_set() to change the setting when a player joins/leaves.
