Re: Randomize Texture
We are fighting here with the human's brain remarkable ability to detect patterns. It tries so hard that sometimes it sees things where there isn't (seen below). Drawbacks of the mentioned techniques so far: - Node rotation technique: bad for mapblock compression, which has an impact on world databa...

Re: Y coordinate VALUE ISSUE. BIGGER VaLUeS IGNORED.
What you are trying to do is: check if one of the connected players is above -5 meters and it's night. If it is, play a sound, schedule a new check after a random time, and stop there (don't check other players). But if the pos.y>=-5 condition is not true at some point for a player, your night() fun...

Re: WHY ARE ABMS SO SLOW NOW?
Having "many abms with an interval of one" is a recipe for a laggy game/server. Whether or not there's some regression in MT regarding ABM performance, you should consider "not doing that".

Re: Question about development
Certainly, as long as those changes preserve compatibility with the existing ecosystem, that is existing mods. This constrain will probably limit what one can actually do. Nobody's gonna follow that person unless the breaking changes allow huge improvements for the vast majority of users.

Re: Can you reformat chat messages in a server side mod?
Dunno, but thinking about it, chat_send_all'ing might not be a good idea, as I suspect it will broadcast PMs as well. Regardless about the other issues you worry about, a third argument for the callback (the name of the destination or "" for all-chat) would extend the applications of that ...

Re: Can you reformat chat messages in a server side mod?
For general chat, I guess you could cancel the original message and chat_send_all() your modified version instead. That's what the chat prefixes mod appears to do. Obviously, the edited version will be processed by the same callback tho, so funny recursions might happen if not careful.

Re: newbie problem: how to change map view to square?
I did that accidentally once. It's kind of a hidden feature and it's difficult to find it again.
When the map is displayed, use <your sneak>+<your map key> (I can't give the exact keys cause I've been playing forever with custom keys cause I'm left-handed).

Je pense par exemple à certains propriétaires de serveurs qui ont décidé de bloquer les adresses IP russes, mais le mécanisme peut être approxima...
