FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Well, I've just installed Minetest 4.9 and added pretty much nearly 3 dozen mods. That is below my usual mod amount in other versions of Minetest, which is usually around 50+. Now, when I start playing in my world (Singleplayer Mode), when I place or even click a block for even just a fraction of a second, Minetest hangs and stops responding. What do I do?

Try to reproduce it without mods.

Tell us what is in your debug.txt after the crash,

I've tried, it works! :) But I can't survive without mods... ;)

It seems like the gates mod is the cause.

I removed Gates mod and it worked! Thanks!
