I think it would be nice if Minetest would support multiple worlds natively, i.e. through an option in the "server" section of the main menu. I think this shouldn't be too hard technically, but I've only started reading the source yesterday.

This won't break protocol and will make it possible to make the main server with portals to every other server (lika a serverlist, but in-game).

So basicly you suggesting next test case:
1. User connect to the main server
2. Then go to the some kind of portal
3. Server send cmd to client to redirect to anouther server
4. Client disconecting from current setver and start conection to anouther server
5. Client say to new server that it came from anouther server
5. New server request player info from sender server
6. Player login with all it inventory from previous server

Daraku wrote:Not neccesary. Main server can provide a client with some sort of a session key, that client will present to a new server, and then new server will chek validity of that key on a new server.

on different servers it would be as simple as changing the client to have a cache per server
