Still it doesn't remember list, future_banlist.txt doesn't exist (in world folder). But server starts.

When I created future_banlist.txt in world folder, I can see on server start:

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

Server: error:

minetest.register_on_joinplayer(function(player)
    local name = player:get_player_name()
    for i,n in ipairs(future_ban_list) do             <------------------------------ 49th line
        if n == name then
            if not minetest.ban_player(name) then
                minetest.chat_send_player(name, "Failed to ban player " .. name .. " (from future ban list).")
            else
                local desc = minetest.get_ban_description(name)
                minetest.log("action", desc .. " banned (from future ban list).")
                table.remove(future_ban_list, i)
            end
        end
    end
end)

Thanks

The mod generates the file. You cant add names to this file. You have to add them all in-game with the command.

[cactuz_pl]

So I did.

File is not created.

Yes I created it but after failure.

Now it works perfectly.

Thank you, and sorry for wasting your time. I hope you will create new topic with this mod.

A vampire mob that uses player model with vampire textures and makes them always hostile and heals them when they hit you the rest would be up to the creator

[neko259]

Sky islands generator, possibly with generating some wooden bridges between them.

[markveidemanis]

hi, can someone make a mod that lets some people on a server be in creative mode, and some in survival mode. possible like a command: /gamemode [creative/survival]
thanks

[clarksallador]

How about ahmm...a potions like potion for speed,height for jump,etc...

[Inocudom]

I have an idea for a new type of biome that can be referred to as the legacy biome. It basically takes on the look and feel of version 0.3.1 of minetest-c55 and spawns at random places on the map (can spawn underground as legacy caves and ruins as well.) All of its ores could be legacy coal, legacy iron, and legacy mese. They could be stronger and more powerful than the normal ones. There could also be 8-bit versions of minetest-c55's default sounds for placing, mining, and walking on the block types of the legacy biomes. This type of biome can serve as a living museum of the past while the rest of the map gets all of the features of the present builds of minetest-c55 (a biome such as this can preserve the old mese.)

OK I'm gonna suggest a mod that I was gonna make and just wanted more ideas to add to it but it got closed because someone mistook it for a request so now it is I want a mod that adds more liquids other than water and lava

An old mod...Morewater

Just wondering, is it possible to add the 3D player to the inventory GUI?
When you move the mouse cursor around in the inventory, the player could look at where the cursor is.

[FreeLifeXtreme]

How about a mod like NEI? You can spawn in items or locks, or switch the mode to recipe mode? Or just the recipe thing...

How about a mod which involves magic, wands that do different things and have different ways of charging?

How about an exchange mod (similar to that of Equivalent Exchange 2)?

How about a mod that adds microblocks (Redpower 2)?

A mod that add transport (like buildcraft)?
A mod that implements quests?

See skyblock game.

Not sure if it's been mentioned but.. mirrors.

Why? If one has an in game skin switcher mod or similar installed, it would be easier to look in a mirror to verify the skin is as they want. Only other method of this I'm aware of is to log in a second client or have a friend help.

Oh, I do hope such a mod actually gets created. It should not be impossible to do.

[rarkenin]

Irrlicht supports extra viewports mapped to textures, but, does the Minetest engine allow for that to be done by a mod?

I searched the forum threads similar but I have not found. Think it's too difficult to add something like....

At the beginning of your game choose between a certain number of "races" (elves, dwarves, humans). all races have certain characteristics:
-different collision-box (size);
-different speeds of movement;
-different-sized inventory (4x8, 4x7, 5x10);
-a different diet (dwarf like potatoes, but are allergic to apples).

These are just examples.
So we would have a system roguelike.

No! I mean that the player chooses their race.
The mod that I've linked refers to "non-player characters" (both) as I understand it.
