FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

I have Minetest version 0.4.7-0 installed on my computer which is running Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring). I had the same issue with 12.04, with both the stable and daily releases of minetest.

Nearly every time I log onto a server, or even go into a singleplayer world, I start shooting off into space. My FPS drops rapidly from 55 to 2. If I don't exit within ~10 seconds, I start getting one frame per several seconds. It doesn't seem to be a problem in creative mode worlds.

I generated a debug.txt for you, although it's very long and I can't attach it as a file. Here's a screenshot, for whatever it's worth:



Please ask any questions if you have them. I'll try to reply quickly. I would really like to be able to play again!

debug.txt is 18605 lines. There aren't any obvious errors except for sound issues.

Try /teleport 0,0,0

I don't have that privelege in servers. In singleplayer, it didn't crash immediately. It used to happen mid-game on servers. It'd be really nice to be able to play regularly without losing my place and having to teleport to 0,20,0 every 10 minutes. My previous solution was creating a different login, which was even worse than teleporting. But, as I said, I don't have that privelege...

Thanks for the suggestion though.

This seems to be the ERROR[main]: WARNING: updateListener: invalid value bug

You're right! I'm looking into it. Thanks for the pointer!
