Re: ABM interleaving
It is more efficient in my experience. As I explained above, I have been using that methodology in one of my own mods.

Re: Find unused but activated mods
I'm not sure what you mean by "unused mods". From the perspective of the engine, any mod that is installed and active will be used by the engine. Whether the features of that mod end up actually being utilized is an entirely different story. And that is heavily dependend on the mod in ques...

Re: Minetest Game will be debundled in 5.8.0
I'm so excited to see that the engine is finally being shipped without Minetest Game pre-installed. However, I believe that the main menu should have really defaulted to the multiplayer tab. After all, servers afford a much more inviting experience for new players to get their feet wet. There's virt...

Re: ABM interleaving
The applicability depends on what exactly you want to do, but here is an alternative. globalstep + LBM (+ on_place ) This way you can check all nodes at once and don't have to execute the check in every ABM separately. Also bulk checks are much faster, since you can use VoxelManipulation. That is h...

Re: ABM interleaving
I agree that ABMs have their share of limitations (and performance issues as well). I implemented a much more flexible alternative to both ABMs and LBMs in pure Lua several years ago, which I still use on my own server for handling large scale mapblock updates. https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.p...

Re: [Mod] FediAuth [fediauth]
I believe it would technically be possible to change the user password as well, since the ESC menu is builtin to the client and is always available as soon as the player enters the game. Also I suspect the user would still able to issue chat commands. In both cases, a hacked client can simply close ...

Re: [Mod] FediAuth [fediauth]
Interesting implementation. I will say that realistically, it should be impossible to join the server until the correct 2FA code is entered. While you can revoke privileges, the other game mechanics are not suspended. For example, I developed a temperature survival mod for my server that damages pla...

Re: Need help on making a map reset system
One option you could try is to use the age-old trick, from the 8-bit console systems, of background rendering in an alternate "page", and then switching to that "page" when you're ready. Except in this case the "page" could simply mean a positional offset along a specif...

Re: Comparing of password hashes.
Afaik if the server admin uses the /setpassword command, then Minetest does use a cryptographic hashing algorithm based only on username + password pair (I think it stores SHA256 as Base64) in which case the same hash could appear on multiple servers.
