Minetest Forums

It seems like bots aren't counted as guests, and bots didn't have permissions to read the forum.
I've given them the appropriate permissions.

Looking through the modpack, I noticed a stargate mod. Does it still work, and if so, how do you generate/craft one? You're using a old version of Technic, StarGate is now packaged separately. However, the StarGate mod in old versions of Technic should work (although I wouldn't recommend it on a mu...

AFAIK ABMs keep going once put on. If that's really true (not my lack of knowledge), I would like to see the possibilities to shut them off and on later in the game, after meeting a condition, paired with the computers internal clock or connected with the Minetest time. ABMs are designed to run on ...

We're not missing those... Perhaps we don't have the same quantity of them though.

Post updated with the right nodename.
Also, for future reference: reading the code is helpfull, I found the answer here: https://github.com/Jeija/minetest-mod-m ... k/init.lua

The command block is fixed now.
And use /giveme mesecons_commandblock:commandblock_off

You have to restore the param2 (and param1) value when you use set_node. You can get your current param1 and param2 values with get_node. You should NOT use a hardcoded param2 value. So, for example. local node = minetest.get_node(pos) node.name = "curtains:red_closed" minetest.set_node(po...

I've raised the attachment size limit.

Are spoilers going to be fixed soon? Spoilers and headers work, but old ones weren't converted. Colo u r tags also weren't converted to color tags. I'm working on a Python script to fix this but it isn't quite finished yet. Until then, editing a post will update it (except that it won't fix colour ...

The forum is now converted to phpBB with a theme by BlockMen.

Try using the node breaker and deployer from pipeworks.

Can somebody make a video tutorial? I can't understand how to use this. I have very tall building and I want to protect it, but I can only place 2 nodes. I want to cover the whole area of the building. [Edited for clarity] There isn't a video tutorial currently that I am aware of. However, protecti...

Also note that this always enables Technic oregen. This will double the amount of uranium in worlds that have Technic enabled.
You should add something like this:

CWz wrote:Can you add an option to toggle whitelist mode?

The whitelist can be enabled and disabled by simply enabling or disabling the mod.

I saw that lfs was a solution, but I thought it wouldn't be usable in the context of minetest. Would anyone who installed the mod need to also download and install lfs or can I include it somehow? You can pre-compile it and include it by adding: package.cpath = package.cpath .. ";" .. mod...

You can depend on LuaFileSystem and use the dir iterator. For example: local lfs = require("lfs") local modpath = minetest.get_modpath(minetest.get_current_modname()) print("List of textures in this mod: ") for filename in lfs.dir(modpath .. "/textures") do if filename ...

I have one large area "/set_owner"'ed by "SAFR". Inside that area I have a smaller area "/add-owner"'ed by "SAFR". To that sub-area, I have run the "/area_open" command. Playing in a second window as "ak399", I'm seeing the two areas [19 (...

Could you consider changing the function 'areas:canPlayerAddArea' so that a player does not have to remove all sub-areas before being able to create an intersecting area ? Something like: - if area.owner ~= name then + if not area.parent and area.owner ~= name then The following change would be use...

We need the full error message to determine what the issue is. Run minetest from a terminal and copy the output, or copy the relevant part of debug.txt.

Unrelated: This is my 100th post! \o/

phpBB is an older forum software (e.g. it's in it's teens by now). Most of the spammer robots already have figured out how to register and post. You're going to get alot of spammers and some hackings. PunBB is quite old too. We have had our share of spambots on PunBB. We can block these spambots wi...

The Minetest themed style has the narrow threads, like the current style. :-)
I like it like it is now. Not full width, but not very thin either.

I've fixed it.

These are the things I don't like: [...] Other than that I think it is alright. Just update the theme and install a few modifications such as spoiler to make it better. Most of these issues are style issues, which the new theme should fix. There actually are spoilers. They aren't as pretty as the o...
