May happen to a degree in already generated areas - especially at the borders of biomes. There, the colored grass may "win". In the center of such green-grass-areas, grass ought to turn into the new green variant.

CraigyDavi wrote: Same here. People can place doors in protected areas.

That needs to be fixed in minetest_game in the doors mod.

this time, people will have to register before signing on, they'll get one protected island (and/or seabed) and won't get more until they've used it. Sounds like a good concept. As you might have noticed from our recent screenshots, we get more done when we're not running a daycare. I've seen how o...

yes, I know. However, my goal is to allow the exchange of objects between two players, without being forced to throw objects on the ground, and without having to build a chest to make the trade-off. Sounds like a very good idea. There was a thread about that here which did not make it into a mod so...

Can someone explain to me how to get around this problem?

Perhaps it might work if you use a tool for the pointing?

This works amazingly well! I've dested this version in singleplayer and on servers with small media data (VanessaEs vanilla server, Redcrabs server). The view distance is admittedly low on my rather cheap phone - yet 20 blocks are usually enough for small houses, and it runs smoother than the deskto...

Technical data of the phone:

GPU: PowerVR SGX (MediaTek MT6577)
RAM: 1GB

I voted for "add compatibility code" as I see it as a great gain if diffrent versions of Minetest can connect to almost all servers. However, this is to be seen as "nice to have" and certainly not an absolute requirement. But if you ask...:-) However, if there's no time for it, o...

How about mobile devices? I'm astonished as to how well it runs on my phone. It's a rather cheap android one which was not bought for gaming performance. 1 GHz dual core 1 GB RAM (not really comparable to a PC) Resolution: only 480x735 (that helps a bit as well :-)) view range: 20 (yes, that's not m...

well my idea was not to pre-generate areas, but to prevent random players from generating several chunks for nothing. That way, they'd be limited to making use of what's already there, and the admins/moderators of the server could be charged with generating more map as the need arises :-) Hm. Based...

I have tested this mod and I found the interface a bit too complex. It's easy to be lost on it... The interface has four diffrent pages: 1. The main page where you insert the blocks you want to color and can take them out. 2. The block selection menu where you get an overview of which blocks are su...

I didn't even see that he had a problem lol. Dude's been bumping old topics with stuff like "Tried it out, it's awesome". That disses me off. If you didn't even read it, don't complain about it :-) This isn't a board for latest news only. There are plenty of valid reasons to post in an &q...

Have a look at Karsthafen. That's a very well-built map. Apart from that, most good buildings are found on servers. It's "build your own" instead of "download ready-made" :-)

In unified dyes, colors follow their own naming schem. You don't have to support each shade (like medium saturation, low saturation, dark etc.) as long as all basic colors from a shade are supported.

Does it accept a name like this: seablocks_yellowlightglass_yellow.png (I mean with 2 or more underscores?) From that single name, it's difficult to see which pattern the name will actually follow. Is it seablocks_COLORlightglass_yellow.png, is it seablocks_yellowlightglass_COLOR.png, or is it seab...

The fact is, every protection mod could protect furnaces, technic machines and even "normal" chests. That's a relatively new feature and therefore might not have been integrated. Plus several long-time players know to place and operate their furnaces in safe places. One further problem is...

The trouble would be to propagate the new skin to the players who are already connected. An option to send additional media data later on would indeed be nice.

The biomes created by the ethereal mod work surprisingly well. The landscape is very intresting, and the server might be something for people seeking new terrains.

Well again I don't doubt the functionality of the road, but it looks so artificial, and it sort of ruins the lake. Go to VanessaEs survival server. We are more concerned about preserving the landscape there, and mods like moretrees and undergrowth etc. add to a beautiful landscape. Though even ther...

I'm looking over the mod now - I'd like to have the builder show me the outline of the future building so I can tweak oritientation and placement before building. My random_buildings mod does have a build chest (just no crafting receipe for it). It does not have a builder and is not able to build b...

When im having more time again i will propably start making it . Depending on how complex you want it to be, you may either take the existing mobf (already covers most of what you#re suggesting) or simple mobs (everything a bit more simple). Or improve one or both of them. If you intend to get it i...

I've added support for this in my colormachine mod, but in order for it to work, the textures do have to be renamed. The blocknames may now stay the same - the colormachine can now handle this type of blockname. So please rename your colors to the schem hardenedclay_COLOR.png And make sure the color...

Added support for the colored chests and locked chests from the kerova mod.

Also added support for hardenedclay - to a degree. That mod needs to be updated a bit first in order to really work convincingly with the colormachine.

As for the coloring machine I dunno if I have to change anything in the code. You don't have to. My colormachine now supports your colored chests and your colored locked chests. I don't really want to lose the regular method I already have for crafting in case people don't have the coloring machine...

There are more than 8 orientations. Depending on the way the nodebox is defined, it may be up to 24. The old facedir nodes could point north, east, south and west (4 directions) - with the 6d facedir, the groundplate can be moved to any of the 6 sides of the cube. Doing it with a tool like the repla...
