I wish that there was an API for this

Well, there is POSIX...

OTOH, what you want to do, maybe it can be done in some other ways -
but you would need to provide more details about your concept.

Have you seen/used the cauldron from xdecor yet?

The commandblocks on Birgit's techworld have been working fine when she wasn't logged on.
Have you tried with commandblocks placed by the admin ?

thminer wrote:we added mesecons

There are also basic-machines now on Blue World.

You might want to read about Mesecons and Example-Factories on the wiki.

I also found that movers set the reverse-option by themselves,
when activated via mesecons (eg. with blinky-plants).

How about just muting them ?

- Bones can only be obtained by digging dirt (1 in 30 chance).

Eating (cooked) chicken used to give a bone.
That doesn't work any more ?

Maybe it would help to pre-emerge some terrain around each player
when the server is mostly idle ?

GamingAssociation39 wrote:Adds XP like MC does

Please explain what it does, without 'like xyz",
or give a link.

You shouldn't assume everybody already knows.

Also, how is your mod different from achievements ?

Still question: what the file are all changes saved in? For example, when player digs or set blocks, that is he changes the map.

Did you try to make utility machines with Technic frames? I haven't used technic & pipeworks yet, but 'utility machines' with mesecons would be nice. I mean, clocks, processors, doors etc. are cool, but not really useful. Maybe I missed something, but how is it possible to do useful work with m...

Maybe display a speech-balloon for private / line-of-sight talking ?

Or just craft a sign/book, and write on it...

The Filigree’d Tower. a massive area to build in inside those walls, each of 8 available lots is 120 X 120 nodes. assign different sectors to different teams of builders and see what they come up with. So, it would be ok to put this on a public server ? (And maybe change those sandstone walls / roo...

a tool allowing placing more Street blocks with one click would be really helpful.

Did you have a look at the building-capabilities of the digtron (see sig) ?

Where can i find a book that i could solve problem in on Lua? Rosettacode is a wiki with a lot of programming-tasks, solved in many programming-languages, and lua is among them. You can look at existing solutions, and contribute your own. Also, Trainsported is a game/simulation where you have to wr...

Also, some comments on the config-files would be nice.
