Re: [Mod] Classroom [0.1][classroom] Feature request

Hi rubenwardy, I don't suppose there is any chance you could add a chat-command to open the formspec for us weird people who insist on using unified_inventory?

Re: [Mod] Classroom [0.1][classroom]

Epic work & great idea!
Thanks for this, teaching my young twins how to play will now be a lot less like herding kittens ;-) I'll install it on my server today for when they play again tomorrow.

Re: [Game] Flux (3D Game Of Life) [1.0]

Does anyone have a copy of this game?

Orby seems to have taken down his whole repo on github, and after a good hunt around, I cant seem to find a mirror of it.

I'd love to see if I can get it to run on 5.0+

Re: [Mod] Symmetool Mirror - Build helper [v1.6][symmetool]

@BuckarooBanzay: indeed, it's the perfect use case, but as rubenwardy notes, on a server even an N style problem gets slow, fast. But you know that and I'm sure there was a /s missing from your comment ;-) Oh no, wait, nothing was missing ;-) @rubenwardy & @texmex Indeed, I had considered most o...

Firstly, thanks for the kind words.

Re: Great Fire of London maps

I don't know if this is too late for you, but these maps piqued my interest and I have managed to get the first of the maps to convert. It converts moderately well, but as is often the case, the converter offsets the imported map A LOT from origin. If you still have your converted worlds, teleport t...

Thanks for looking into that, but as I stated I already fixed the way the issue could occur. After a server restart, the bot data does not exist. The key is retrieved from the node metadata when opening a formspec, but I missed a couple of cases. bot_rekey() does not set bot_key to nil, and bot_key ...

Re: [Mod] Visual Bots [1.2] [vbots]

I've never seen that error, and can't seem to reproduce it. I can see what the problem is, but am baffled as to how the situation came to be.

Still, I've updated the code in a way which should stop the situation happening.

Enjoy.

Thanks for testing 8-) I agree. the instruction items are harmless, so I'm not worried about them right now ;-), but on the next cleanup, the whole 'subprogram' inventory needs a rework. Indeed, a conditional jump is next on the to-do list, as that will make the language 'Turing complete' allowing b...
