Re: [Server] Xanadu

Buck up! I've survived at least three different map-wipes on the Xanadu server. Granted, the current map is the only one where I haven't had a fully-functional space station. Hmm... Perhaps there's a causation link there... I build a space station and somebody runs the trench, and then blows up the ...

Re: [Server] Xanadu

I just swapped out computers and got the shiniest version of Minestest. Turns out the v5.x clients can't reverse-engineer a v4.x server. So is there any plan and/or timetable to switch Xanadu to v5.x? I realise that this could force another map wipe (I don't know if the v5.x servers can still use th...

3D models to Minetest schematics

I'm wondering if there is some utility that could take a 3D model (in any format, but raw triangles is probably easiest) and turn it into a minetest schematic. The idea is that nodes of a certain type are created if they intersect with the edge of the model and/or fall in the interior of the model. ...

Thank you for the license information.

Yes. all of the submodules have been imported, per that forums post. Indeed, the server would not be able to get so far without the code from those other modules.

Unlikely, auouymous. With the last map wipe, no player information was kept (which means those people trying to store things up in their bags are out of luck). This also means that each person will have to log in with a fresh password to "lock in" their username for their exclusive future ...

Re: Can we please have reasonable scaling of formspecs back?

Somewhat related; e.g. GUI scaling:

I had a point where operator error created a GUI scaling of 0. This caused a GUI crash upon startup. Can we please have a code snippit that sets a GUI Scaling to a default value when it detects an invalid value for the GUI Scaling.
