Re: [MOD] SQLite Auth [sauth]

Thanks Sofar, you can appreciate as a MT developer, you expressing it in the form you did sends out a strong signal as to the viability of a mod, and it seemed a bit harsh given sauth does actually add a useful feature for a popular server, one that's unlikely to make it into the core anytime soon. ...

Re: [MOD] SQLite Auth [sauth]

Oh does the regular auth backend support memory caching of recent players now? Not sure where you get the idea that sauth is possibly no longer maintained but as always everyone is free to do whatever they wish, maybe just try sticking to known facts...

There are some conf settings available see https://github.com/minetest-mods/nether ... it.lua#L67 for the details, basically you need to add nether_depth_ymax to minetest.conf and the value you want, the default is -5000

Re: [Mod] SQLite Ban [sban]

If you use the sban mod you should update asap to fix a few important issues I came across, if you updated the database last time there is no need to run it again and any orphaned records will be shown in the server log file once sban loads for you to deal with appropriately e.g. cross reference the...

Re: Forums need about 30 options on Polls

I'm sure you would as that would require less effort, unfortunately the easiest solution is to do as rubenwardy suggested and use an external website link. Something tells me we can't just ask the admin to change something they instigated for probably a good reason.

Re: Mod-Interface problem

Sounds like Unified Inventory mod was present originally, if you right click a node the console will spam the missing item so you can quickly find the mods that are missing.

Re: [MOD] SQLite Auth [sauth]

just to be clear sauth runs it's own instance of sqlite, setting sqlite3 global to nil just means no other mod can use this mods instance of it, if you are using mods that need that global you should load them after sauth to prevent any issues. Keep in mind the backend uses sqlite and is in no way a...

Re: [MOD] SQLite Auth [sauth]

Latest version has performance enhancements, I recommend updating asap if you use sauth as your authorisation handler. The difference is quite obvious in the performance of the mod from the moment it is updated. Enjoy!

Re: Server Needs Admin!

This topic is just click bait, there is no server so perhaps it should be retitled to 'Who wants to share the cost of a VPS to host a minetest server?'
Even then it's unclear as to what advantage there is to sharing the costs, you seem to want to be in charge of it :)
Good luck with your quest!

Re: [MOD] SQLite Auth [sauth]

No other reports of this issue to date, the record is cached after first retrieval, giving the same read performance or better due to the reduced table size on subsequent calls, so this seems to point to the db save hitting a busy status occasionally.

Re: [Mod] Smart shop 5 [smartshop]

it is a known error and results from a lack of checks on the pos table being passed in the function. Ideally you would redefine pos outside of the functions main conditional as the call is valid for any of the conditions, this allows you to check it's valid and return if not, preventing the crash.

This mod has a minor bug, it checks creative privilege for every item in the list on player login, for me that's 451 checks where it accesses a core function due to the account having creative priv. Obviously 450 of those checks are unnecessary so I created a PR that caches the first check and subse...
