I had a problem with 52 and it turned out my adjusting the lighting settings made a black mess so it's probably some conflict with the mod and the newer versions lighting

127.0.0.1 will connect you to yourself. I think he wants the host device ip on his router, ie 192.168.1.2. Then the client would connect to that ip. Plus he needs incoming connection udp 30000 default enabled. Maybe even port forwarding on the router.

I've heard multi-players complain about the Android client. I guess there's nothing official for Apple? Seems like the 2 most popular operating systems are the least active with developers. Changing this would obviously bring more users and developers.

Maybe better off without some stupid admin ruining their own server like so many do on "survival"
I recently installed 52 and went back to 4.17 because I didn't like any servers. Too bulky (100 plus mods), Admin gave friends creative on "survival" or other stupid things.

I don't think they're especially appropriate places to have social media accounts. I think these horrible data mining spyware companies are the perfect place to promote to the masses. I try to discourage family and others not to use privacy invasive social medial but it's very useful to promote any...

Hi, is Ubuntu PPA available? Thanks

1024 KB / 60s * 8(KB/kb) = ~136 kbps. This is clearly more data than a 56 kbps modem could process. No client settings will reduce the network traffic. Change the server settings to update less mapblocks (disable mods), or move less entities (player limit, disable mobs mods). That's unfortunate bec...

I disable fancy stuff and reduced view to 20 but minetest uses nearly 1 MB of data a minute. Is this normal and what can I do to use less data on multiplayer?

stop listening servers that are NOT ONLY 5.x protocol and people HAVE to change to legal 5.x ?

No because non fork 4.x servers are doing well. You can't force everyone to love 5.x

Most users ever online was 1102 on Tue Feb 11, 2020 12:31 More popular than ever... :-D That seems a bit high to me. I look at the list and estimate Minetest has less than 100 regular returning players. The fork has more than version 4-5 servers combined. Note that some players ip will change when ...

1 seems to be the only option for Android and Apple. Maybe wrong but believe Multicraft dev has contributed to Minetest.

So I can't do something like /sethome then use the A key to run command /home if I " A= /home " ? I'm not a programmer so I ask key binding is not possible? I've tried a few things in minetest.conf and failed

Your issue is irrelevant here as this thread is not about darkness in completely dark areas.

I dunno, I think the lighting sucks to. Seems similar enough to me.

In the default game, swords... are kind of useless. Yeah, I know there is PVP, but not everyone likes PVP. As far as I know, mobs aren't in the default game anymore, which makes swords kind of useless in singleplayer. Swords do break plants faster, but other then that and PVP situations, they just ...

I complained about lighting not long ago. I don't play MC but a family member does and there's no total darkness. I've tried other games http://www.classicube.net/download/ and same. To me it's bad enough that I went back to 4.17.1

My public library has hand sanitizer and the keyboards are a gross slimy mess. Corona virus much better than that.

How will I know when ubuntu ppa version is updated to 5.0.2? I'm using 4.17.1 but would like to test the upgrade. I believe my problem might be hardwaare relate because I noticed that even lava or other lights are dimmer in 5.0.1

It's used to rotate some things you place. Like if your stairs face the wrong direction try clicking them while holding the screwdriver

I'm on linux but the default worlds folder for me is hidden.

Otherwise apt will d...

duane, I play but I'm not a programmer. paramat I installed a new distro lumbutu with 5.0.1 and the "bug" persists. Easy to reproduce if anyone cares to try.
