Re: [Modpack] Unter Null [unternull]

This sounds fun, but I don't really know what to do with the blocks I got.
And I cannot look on this server because my 'protocol version' is too new. (I use a self compiled minetest)

Re: [Modpack] Creatures MOB-Engine [2.1] [cme]

Good mod composition!

I would love to see mobs (especially sheeps) to turn their heads to the next players, but I don't know if it will cause more server lagging (because of one additional lua entity), so it have to wait until client side mods are supported…

Re: Footstep sound replacements

Some of them are way better than the default sounds, especially the gravel! The sand could be a bit louder, though.

Re: wayland

That Irrlicht doesn't support Wayland wasn't so bad, if it only did work under wayland.

Under the XWaxland compatibility layer, I always end up turning around – I think that the cursor doesn't get reset into the mid of the window. But probably that's not Minetest's or Irrlicht's fault.

Then why is inventory management so horribly slow in Minetest that there is a delay up to three seconds even in single player? Have you tried to tune the minetest.conf or another map backend?

Re: Post your modding questions here

A world generator question:
How do I index the flat arrays returned by get3d_map_flat and get2d_map_flat?

I have recently tried to do the same as other lua map generators but what ive done is not perfectly working.

Can someone provide a minimal working example of using flat noise arrays?

Re: [Mod] Minecraft-like railway corridors [railcorridors]

The wood is burned as far the lava flows.
But unfortunately, the rails in minetest_game are not burned by lava and not flushed away by water whcih looks sometimes weird.

Re: Guide to create fast minetest server on Linux

If you just use redis, which stores many blocks in RAM per default (or leveldb maybe) I think it is very fast also. Nearly as fast as RamFS and more-often backups.

@LinuxDirk: Yes, minetest is a voxel game, but also only an engine, and now there is space for subgames with realistic approaches where you don't have to jump one meter in height every 3 seconds when running over hills :) Also, round trees will look more realistic then quadratic ones.
