Okay. Now this is bugging me ._.
When I try to open a local world on my computer, in Creative Mode, it spits back an error:

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: 13:55:29: ERROR[main]: ServerError: LuaError: error: ...st/bin/../games/minetest_game/mods/creative/init.lua:67: attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'creative_inventory_size' (a nil value)

Line 67 of the creative init.lua says:

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: local pagemax = math.floor((creative_inventory.creative_inventory_size-1) / (6*4) + 1)

I only started getting it when I started adding mods.. I am guessing it is overflowing the 5 pages of creative inventory, and doesn't know how to make more. I know it can, because I have seen screenshots of people with 9 pages are so.

And, if I remove the creative mod, then everything works perfectly, but I do not have the creative inventory, which I really liked.. Anyone able to help?

Thanks in advance! :)

I think your Minetest Version is outdated

You think? :o
I download everything straight from Github, using my little script I wrote..

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: #! /bin/bash # move to minetest folder cd minetest # download and merge new engine changes git pull git@github.com:celeron55/minetest # move to minetest_game folder cd games/minetest_game # download and merger new game changes git pull git@github.com:celeron55/minetest_game # move back to minetest folder cd ../.. # compile cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1 make -j2

So maybe it is just too new? And he has not release a fix for it?

I'm using the latest Commit d38b465b7c11e5f22632b60b88d65fd1e72282af and it works just fine for me

Welll, do remember that we are talking about minetest_game (or, one of the mods in it) and not minetest the engine..
