Extreme Survival Minetest server

[maikerumine]

I think the NPC movement routines might need a little tweaking. When I tried to climb the access ladder to the elevator after a hard day's mining, I found this:



I was able to climb the ladder by coming up behind them. When I did, they immediately broke up and went their separate ways.

I don't know - maybe they were fascinated with my marvelous ladder craftsmanship until I went and scuffed a rung with my dirty boot.

Hahaha! That is classic!
I imagine there was a bad mob on the other side of the wall that was their target, and as you approached the mob moved to track you, in turn the npcs followed the mob behind the wall. I imagine there is a cavern with a cliff behind this wall, if you light it up this shouldn't be a problem anymore.

Wrong place at the right time situation.

Nope, no cavity behind the ladder or elevator. Even if there was, the NPCs still should not be chasing after a mob that is on the other side of a wall.

I just thought you guys would get a kick out of the picture.

Can anyone tell me why I can not plant pumpkin slices on hoe'd wet soil as I can wheat?

It turns out that the es mod defines a "Punkin Slice" (note the spelling) that uses the same inventory image as the farming mod "Pumpkin Slice" (spelling again). The es slice is not compatable with the farming mod and can not be planted or farmed. The only purposes it has is as food or to craft an es mod "Punk 'O Lantern" light source.

True.

I may end up removing punkin with alias as now we are using tenplus farming.
I will focus more time on server for performance and possible new crafts and weapons, but first getting server a bit faster is the todo.

I was just answering the question so people would know, not pressuring for any specific changes. I agree with your priorities. Chasing down Minetest server performance issues is always something of a pain. <grin>

The fishing mod, which for some reason is not included in the extreme_survival game github repository, is dropping a seaweed node that does not exist.

BTW: I love the old-style wind bobbers. I haven't seen one of those since I was a kid.

They are AWESOME mobs, but a little too awesome...

They griefed a lot of the server today and I am fixing the missing nodes.

Sorry about the problems.

Hello, I thought I would give your server ago and decided to try out Port 30001 of your address. But the connection keeps on timing out every time I try to connect. I don't think it's a problem on my side because I was able to connect to Ports 30000 and 30002 of your server address just fine.

Yes, 30001 is down temporary, 30000 is main dedicated server, 30002 is creative server.

Hi maike,

The house I built on just test that you copied to ESM is not completely protected as it was in just test. The bubble block you put down there was not protected, therefore it was stolen. Please protect my house/shop, or give me protections so I can do it.

Thanks in advance.

[BlueFireIceUn]

maike, why removed guns?

[maikerumine]

maike, why removed guns?

Fixed, they were linked to tnt. I removed tnt.

Guns are fixed

Due to human apathy of our careless passing from one moment to the next, the tides of time have been slowly increasing month after month until we find ourselves inundated up to our un-seaworthy resolutions by a new year.

Curse that climate change!

Oh, and Happy New Year!

[Fixerol]

Yes, Happy New Year! I hope it will be better for us all.

The sixth item given by the give_initial_stuff mod, between the sapling and the 65 loaves of bread, is an unknown item. I don't know what it is since the github give_initial_stuff mod is apparently out of date.

I would like to request a move-in date for floor 8 of building 300. I didn't see any way to ask the ADMIN for this in-game. Thank you for considering me as a tenant in this prestigious development. Please advise me as to how payments are to be made. I intend to pay for a year in advance.

Are pets allowed? I hope the building is non-smoking. <grin>

All set! you can move in now! You may have as many pets as you can handle, just be sure to clean up the poop! :-)

Thank you kindly. I'm now measuring for curtains.
Hmmm... No curtains, or rugs, or furniture. No technic so the mad scientist lair is out.
It's a nice modern building but I might be left with only wood, stone, wool, and straw.
Maybe an indoor garden. I'll have to think about this.

BTW: How do I pay the rent?

[DuDraig]

The recipe for Carrot and Stick has two items:

• An unknown item.
• An apple.

An apple??? Not a carrot and a stick? That must require some nifty knife-work. (chuckle)

[stoneminer]

How do I pay the rent?

It's free, no rent.
