InGame Console Bug/Strange behaviour

Hello everybody, I wanted to report this even if its not that annoying or is affecting gameplay a lot. But it could be confusing for new players which encounter the in-game console. 1) The bug is reproducable 2) ^ by simply pressing F10 3) Win7 and WinXP tested 4) Minetest 0.4.7-bc5db9b 5) Game type...

First of all: Great work! I like that feeling when you walk through the world. Its something like an old Gameboy Game (not the 8bit screen :P ). But i miss a few textures like Ice, Snow. Marble and Granite are not that important, since it is part of the technic mod, however asking doesnt cost anythi...

Update
Added a very basic Swearing filter with most common english swear words. The message send from each player gets filtered with all words inside this file and will be given back to the normal code after formatting it.

Okay unless i have misunderstood, your suggestion does reduce calculations by perhaps 1 but the speed improvement will be unnnoticeable, barely worth the effort. The while statement was more of a suggestion reduce the lines and saves you some typing ( yeah i know, copy&paste exists, however ). ...

First of all, great work. I like your environment affecting mods especially the realms. But i have a question. Does it make any difference in peformance if i replace the lines 39 to 78 with a while statement and using minetest.after() instead of globalsteps? Instead of performing a random number gen...

I encountered a little problem. If you try to work on a dirt node with the hoe, it doesnt work as long as footprints are on it. Maybe redefine the hoe that it works with footprint dirt too :3

I make the performance shutdown more persistent. Once you activated it, it will be active for 3 more restarts.

I have a little problem. The following routine seems not to work:

Code: Select all

vector.distance(p1, p2) -> number
from the API doc on Github.
i always get a nil reference to this function. Did it changed to some extend? Im using the stable 0.4.7 client for server testing.

The screwdriver is made for turning a node in the direction of the activated mode. Try pressing Shift + Left-click.
It iterates through the modes and tells you what each mode does. If you then left-click a node, it turns it in the direction.

Testers wanted!

But up to now, i was not capable of creating a situation to test this...

A feature I'd love to see is one where you can set a one-time, future shutdown to happen when the last user signs off, which would work best when the server is run with some kind of auto-restart script (I think most of us do that). Already added. If someone could test it, i would appreciate it. I m...
