Keep the tabs. Rename "Join Game" to "Join" and "Start Game" to "Play", probably. "Content" should be called "Install" and be made more beautiful. Some goes for credits, which should be called "About".

I have to ask though:

Why not just go with mods? I wondered whether I should implement dependency management in modlib, and came to the conclusion that I should just leave it as-is, having the engine handle mod(ule) dependencies.

Well, that gives you the strings, but not the actual images.

None that I know of. I tried to make such a thing (for an online craftguide). It apparently is not that easy to create; many inventory images use texture filters. Some of them are easy to save (those that aren't applied at rendering time). But meshes are not rendered to textures, so you don't get th...

Yeah, everbody OFC is free to create modpacks with them.

I, for one, think MTG mods are a decent base for creating games. They are overall very well-maintained, polished, and battle-tested.

Yeah, I'd just keep the "Join Game" tab. Here are my design improvements (from the PR linked above):

I think we should just continue to develop high-quality mods which are configurable & expose a decent API.

I'm opposed to the "back" button - it adds an extra stage which was not there previously. Also, I've started work on a PR to improve the main menu. I'm mostly fine with the organization of tabs.

I don't see the relevance of Duniter at all.

You could write your own auth handler mod and hope that server owners add it to their servers.

Well, a four digit code means 10k combinations, which in turn means it's vulnerable to a brute force attack.

Thanks! I will consider your suggestions.

Regarding

The fly potion should work in water too

I don't know whether it's possible. Currently I'm setting player physics and decreasing gravity.

The link probably was broken at the time of your post. It works now.

As you might see, goto is used as a variable name: https://github.com/AiTechEye/aliveai/bl ... s.lua#L257 - newer Lua versions, however, support the goto statement. So this would need to be refactored.

I would recommend upgrading to 5.1.1, a bugfix release. Probably it fixes your issues as well?

Performance would likely be bad. And I would not recommend building something using old software.

My PPA install is 5.1.1

You have to escape it for the formspec : Minetest Lua API

When displaying text which can contain formspec code, e.g. text set by a player,
use `minetest.formspec_escape`.
