Minetest Forums

Hi, I made a tutorial on youtube before I backed off of using youtube ... if this helps, this is how I currently set up a server https://youtu.be/c7D3aK-8rew

The following message is being repeated in my terminal with the id = and time changing, the coordinates slightly change ... there is water (an ocean) near there. This is a minetestserver. The server is HANS: 2021-03-20 16:54:37 WARNING[Server]: ServerEnv: Trying to store id = 55335 statically but bl...

And, voila, the problem just resolved itself after question marks for many servers. This leads me to think the problem was at the server list site.

Ok, I have this problem. I'm in Ubuntu. Has anybody figured out what causes this?
I can get on my server from a remote computer (and play minetest) so it is just having an issue connecting to the server list.

Yeah, this invalid position (expected table got nil) seems to be a repeated error. Could it have to do with mesecons or pipeworks automating Doria's placing of the leaves?

The server has been backed up (3 Oct 2020) and the lumberjack mod removed. The lumberjack mod was giving errors in conflict with mesocons.

very cool, if there was a like key it would get a thumbs up

Oh, should I delete this? This is kind of a duplicate.

cool

I found this blog https://liveoverflow.com/minetest/ with this video https://youtu.be/nI8Q1bqT8QU describing how minetest and mesecons showed up in the 2019 Google CTF Qualifier. If you like minetest and computers you might like this.

After browsing various sites it looks like Irrlicht is not really being maintained. How does this affect the minetest game itself?

Ok it works from the zip file but using git you have the same address for master and stable-5 and the git downloads 5.4 dev ... here are the photos of the git address and you can see on the left master and stable-5 : Screenshot from 2020-07-20 18-20-06.png Screenshot from 2020-07-20 18-20-33.png I d...

thank you, will try that

Why is minetest downloading as 5.4 dev instead of 5.3 (stable)? If I use git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/minetest.git cd minetest git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game.git games/minetest_game then why is it cmake, make into a 5.4 dev version instead of the sta...

@TenPlus1 looks like it worked, thank you.

TenPlus1 I use a lot of your mods ... you do a great job with them.
I am getting the same error from ethereal, here are photos of the error message:

This happens when items are dropping.
Do you have any suggestions for fixing this?

2MM stands for Too Many Mods Server (facetiously, sort of) I am posting no pictures BECAUSE THE SERVER IS PRETTY WILD, no real builds yet, it's NEW :) The mods are balanced for environment, immersion, and challenge: for example: Dream Builder Modpack (lots of plants, farming, homedecor, and other co...

Okay, I feel kind of dumb now. Apparently, it WAS reading the file I created and pointed to with --config. All is right with the world again (see what I did there?) LOL I'm still dumb because I edited the spawn in minetest.conf in Home/snap//minetest/current and the spawn is still the old spawn ......

Alternatively just add the PPA and install from there. Let me guess, in Ubuntu I need: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:minetestdevs/stable sudo apt-get update Could you please tell me how to install the minetest server ... should it be one of the Debian packages for Ubuntu 20.04 (command line version o...

fyi the mod as a .bundle is not something that is obvious on how to extract it in linux, the work around is to download (this and HUD bars) using the "content" option in the game (but it would be great if the mod creator used a different format like zip or tar)

Setting up a server, Minetest Wiki [Guide] Create and maintain a server on Windows Old illustrated server guide I don't think the Linux section in the "Setting up a server, Minetest Wiki" is up to date. I think I go to Home/snap/minetest/ .... what do I do from there to set up a dedicated...

Ok I pulled all the folders out so it isn't a modpack in a modpack. This avoids the error message when enabling. FYI baobab is incomplete (doesn't work) but I tested all the other trees in creative and they worked. I'm new to playing with Git-whatever but I can drag and drop folders: https://gitlab....

1. Dreambuilder modpack.txt is empty ... could that be the problem? 2. I can enable other modpacks. 3. I did not get the error enabling (the individual mods in Dreambuilder) them one at a time. 4. I was able to run a test mod just fine (that wasn't a modpack). 5. Could "cooltrees", a modpa...

Ok I got this error after downloading today and just enabling the dreambuilder modpack: Runtime error from mod '' in callback handleMainMenuButtons(): ...t/1169/bin/../share/minetest/builtin/mainmenu/pkgmgr.lua:416: attempt to index a nil value stack traceback: ...t/1169/bin/../share/minetest/builti...
