In rnd's original posting for this mod they state that a "Spawner can also be activated with signal ( mesecons mod, basic_machines mod)". I will admit that I must learn a lot about mesecon controllers. Is there a post or tutorial on how to use a component of Mesecons or Basic Machines to s...

Hello, I have a bit of a problem. I have a Ryzen 7 with 32 g or RAM so I believe I have enough processing power. I wanted to terraform a cliff into a a more aesthetically pleasing sloping "mountain". After using the tool the surface of the blocks are now black as if in "shadow" b...

Great mod. I believe the injectors need to be rotatable using the screwdriver so it is possible to place the injector on top or bottom of a chest in order to hide it from view. in my case I have a chest next to a field in which my robot places the harvested crops. I use an injector and a teleport t...

joe7575, Thank you for your input. I see now that i planted seeds from the agriculture mod as it was the first seed to show up in the search. the devil is in the details. I will experiment with the Farming Redo items and resolve this issue. Then it will be on to figuring out why the harvester will n...

Fantastic mod. I will admit it is very daunting for a non programmer type to use but trial and error is helping understand Lua. Sorry folks but my brain just does not work like a programmers. One item I am trying to find an answer for is this. I would like to use some sort of lua controller to autom...

So I will state that i am basically a noob when it comes to the ins and outs of the more technical mods. But, can some one explain why the harvester will not harvest corn? before i delve too far into the Tubelib mod are there other crops that the harvester will not work with? I do love the way it ha...

I am using Minetest 5.1.1, I have the Technic mod activated via the online content so I will infer that it is the most current version. Can some one explain why when I install the TechPack mod the Tubelib portion seems to interfere with the Technic mod and actually make Technic items disappear? I wi...

Dartmouth: I piggybacked the server on an openmediavault NFS server which did not "invite" me to create a user at installation and since it is a closed system I did not contemplate the need for a user. But, since your post I did create a user "creator" and even logging in as that...

Rubenwardy: Thank you for that bit of knowledge. But, do you have any advice on why minetest-server is not reading the conf file in the first place?

I am having a confusing time developing a home server/client environment and need some advice. To start, the equipment is all old and at this point maybe even laughable but it is for my 6 year old son and his friends. All units are running some version of Debian 8 The server: Additional apps other t...

Napiophelios and Stu, thank you for your input I guess I will need to go a different direction....it is a nice map.... :(

I will admit two things, I am new to Minetest and I have no knowledge of compiling. I will state two things my son enjoys watching minecraft videos on youtube and they cuss way too much. I desire two things a localized game which he and I can play without the foul mouths. During my research I had a ...
