FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Really simple mod, adds an owned geocache block.

Any player can:

• Right click block to view log.
• Punch to sign log.

hehe, a "been there, done that" block

on the Landrush server on Mt Meru there is a sign that people have added their names to upon reaching the peak. Nice to see a mod following the same idea. Could be an interesting block to have in an achievement system.

It would be nice to see the times, and also to sort it as most recent first.

Is there a way to get timestamp from minetest?

As for sorting, I guess it would make sense for it to show recent first by default.

Most recent is now listed first by default. I will make it toggleable later.

You don't get it from Minetest, you get it from Lua's os.date. A real life time stamp is much more readable than a in game timestamp.



will give something like "2015-12-23 20:06". That's the current time.

To show instead something like "100 Minetest Days ago", which I don't recommend, use minetest.get_gametime() or something, and store the game time with the signature, then make the strings when showing the formspec. Be warned that get_gametime() isn't reliable and is liable to being reset (eg: when env_meta.txt is corrupted, which happens a lot)

EDIT: I forgot to say, this is a cool idea and a nice mod.

Added timestamp (thanks rubenwardy).
Example : "belinda on Dec 24 2015 10:30 PM"
