Do you have any general direction, plans, goals in mind? Perhaps any advice you care to share regarding implementing something as a basic API? My only goal is to make an efficient inventory for my own use. The way I did this would make a lousy guide for an API, because it's not easy to add pages to...

Never again. Never say "Never again". Hey, if there were hot girls like that all over me, I probably wouldn't say "never again"... again. ---------------------------------------------------- https://forum.minetest.net/download/file.php?mode=view&id=19389&sid=e4ddd6ebd6a1...

I've added a simple torchlight feature that causes flare_air nodes to appear at your head when you're wielding a default torch. They vanish as you move away (though you'll still leave a bit of a glowing trail). They also burn out your torch in about ten minutes or less, removing it from the wielded ...

So, I dig down to a small cave and see that it's a pretty short jump. I think, "Do I want a water ladder here? Nah, what's the worst that could happen?", and I drop down... Into a nest of goblin traps. But not just goblin traps, it's filled with exploding diamond and lava-source gold traps...

Lots of missing features.

This is a basic inventory mod with recipe list, bags, and armor. It lacks a lot of the features of similar mods, but I've only been working on it for a few days, and it already works for me. All worn items, including bags and armor, are combined into one secondary inventory. Equipped bags expand you...

Pretty! Too bad I never spend any time underwater. : )

I know next to nothing about windows, but your server port will be whatever you set it to when you create the minetest game and select "host server". Mine defaults to 30000, so I would open port 30000 in my computer's firewall and forward external port 30000 to my computer (same port) at m...

It’s… beautiful. T_T It's ****ing me off, cause I found the motherlode of mese, but I can't find any IRON. I know it's there. I put it there. I'd look in a cave, but all the caves I've found are surrounded by granite, which I can't get through without IRON. Grrrrrrrrr. https://forum.minetest.net/do...

I would like to make a mapgen that created another land/realm above the default world and be able to use biome definitions on it. However, I don't much about mapgens. I know that the mod realms exists specifically for this purpose, but I think it is best for multiple realms instead of just one. You...

I'm not happy with the vines connecting the floaters, so I removed them and put in a bunch of random teleport nodes. Right-click them to teleport to another area, but keep in mind that there's no return trip.

so technically similar to water but without all the fluid flowing cpu crunching stuff - just a static layer of another kind of air. Heh. I'm not sure if you're being partially serious or completely whimsical. The cpu load shouldn't be any more than an ocean would cause. It's just a bunch of source ...

Nice work. : ) ------------------------------------- I got tired of falling to my death, so I added a water layer under the floaters. They also have cave environments in their hollow interiors. The spawn code for the floaters mostly works, if you set "mapgen_spawn_height" to around 570. A...

Island on the outside... https://forum.minetest.net/download/file.php?mode=view&id=19328&sid=6b1fa0744edbee5f71c2c828f4b6feb5 cavern on the inside (it's hollow). https://forum.minetest.net/download/file.php?mode=view&id=19329&sid=6b1fa0744edbee5f71c2c828f4b6feb5

I've added magic beans that grow into an easily climbable beanstalk. This has several advantages over dirt towers. For one thing, you can burn the beanstalk down if you get sick of it. In theory you can go as high as you want with this, but it might get tiring since each bean only produces 80 meters...

I've been working on a subgame and wanted to use the nether mod in it. https://github.com/minetest-mods/nether It's rather boring though and I wanted to add some plant life. For whatever reason, this is proving to be near impossible. I've added my own mapgen decoration to add grass and every time t...

If you really want assistance, you'll have to post your logs (system and minetest), describe your network (including all firewall settings), how you installed the software, what you're doing at the time the problems occur, etc. The more you can make the problem description repeatable, the better. Ne...

I've added some magic paints that turn stone brick nodes into different types of brick. The basic formula is a bucket (steel or wood), two dyes, and a slimeball. Red gets you desert stone, white produces sandstone, and gray makes regular stone. I'll probably extend this to stone and block nodes when...

I want to get the minimal and maximal position of a mapchunk. This should work: local pos = vector.new(x, y, z) local chunksize = tonumber(minetest.settings:get("chunksize") or 5) local chunk_offset = math.floor(chunksize / 2) * 16; local csize = { x=chunksize * 16, y=chunksize * 16, z=ch...

That's nothing. Try a whole world of these. (Note the transparent walls as well.)
