I propose the nyan cat block be either removed from the default mod, or renamed and retextured. The existence of this internet meme ingame dates Minetest considerably (nyan cat hasn't been relevant for several years). Although the original is somewhat humorous, placing it in the default game shows ...

Actually, the nyan cat has been a community favorite for a long time. It fills me and many others with joy to find one. People have started teams on servers to find them and its brought up much discussion. I think the nyan is just a fun and creative aspect of minetest! It's also original to the poi...

I like the deep springs of infinite lava idea. Call it something like "magma" to differentiate it, make it more damaging than regular lava, and have it start spawning at a higher frequency the deeper you dig, so that at a certain point you always run into a magma ocean, but have this be co...

It would be nice to have a few enemies. Enemies open up some new doors. Although I would prefer them lack the destructive capabilities they once had. It's fun when they can kill players, it's not fun when they kill your creations. What's even the point though, if you can seal yourself in your fortr...

After all, the game ought to develop. minetest_game is a poor game compared to what you get if you add the (for you!) right mods. Although this is true, I think one of the key differences between minetest and craft is that minetest is built around modding (it's literally impossible to play without ...

Halo Vs. Cod! Alot go down about it so choose what FPS you like better. Me:Halo All the way! Halo 3 was good, so was the first Modern Warfare and CoDs before that. At this point the CoD series is casualized and over-exposed. Although not necessarily a bad game, it's iterated too often. I have to pr...

This isn't debate - there're many points of view but many of them are just statements w/o any solid ground. Minecraft is bad? Then why? It's AI is awful? Then why? And what can Minetest do to have good AI? And does MT have a good AI? Let me rephrase: the creative mode of Minecraft is fine; it's a f...

I'm trying to create a menu when you right click a node. I believe I'm doing this correctly (adding a formspec to the metadata), but nothing happens. I've tried copying the line from the furnace code and other examples, but that doesn't work either. I'm assuming I'm missing something, but I don't kn...

Is there anyone who actually WANTS lava to be finite? And if so, why? What possible benefit is there to REMOVING the renewability it once had?

Let me rephrase. Minetest_game is just that. A full, complete game. It should be usable as such If you want to add "mods", go for it. But it should be fully functional even without them. Minetest is mostly functional, except for some graphical tweaks and some parts of the api. However, it...

It doesn't matter how large the world is, if it last long enough, resources will run dry. Also, expanding the map for more resources wastes hard drive space. while this is true to a point, with the scale maps are currently on, it would take a single person many, many years to completely run out of ...

Conservation should be more important than renewibilty. I like the idea that this is a game about exploitation rather than building. If you don't do a good job preserving and rationing your lava fields, you have two options: move west or die (or run out of lava). If you absolutely need infinite lava...
