How did you get a image on your entire world?

@tomlukeywood You need to use Minetest Mapper, or similar:

Protector no longer protects from PvP? Also, remove voting table for sale in GD shop at spawn :p

Quick view of the city as it grows:






There is quite the infrastructure in place now, subways, railways, and roadways that you can travel quite far. :-)

Special thanks to all the builders on the server for making it a pretty interesting place to explore!

I play on this server sometimes and got around to digging a vertical water-elevator mineshaft some weeks ago, then took a break from extreme survival and left it alone for quite a while. Then later I come back again and it's griefed up--not too bad, so I'm not that worried about it. I reach the bottom and continue digging my mineshaft, but then I encounter a slight problem. There's no flowing water around me. (I've already checked and there was no torch under the water above me, so it couldn't be that.) At first I thought it was just lag, but as time went on the water still didn't come. There isn't usually a problem with that on this server. I wonder why it was doing that? Is it a bug?

Maiki, I was wondering what do you use to play MineTest on a kindle or Ipod? IK you tested it on there... Did you download it from the site or get an app that can be used for MineTest? I'm having problems with mine again, and didnt think you could actually download it from the site for an ipod, but maybe? lol

Thanks,
Asia

Yes, at the appstore android download minetest or freeminer. https://play.google.com/store/search?q=minetest

Minetest:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... t.minetest


Freeminer:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... reeminermt



if those don't work try this:
http://download.cnet.com/Minetest/3000- ... 35140.html


this you will put on your android.

Maikerumine,

I saw that you put my and Baggins's shops in their proper places. Thanks, but I noticed that both were outdated. I don't think that's a problem, since you can't always be updating them, so I'll let that slide.

I also noticed, however, that the rinkydink house I made from cobblestone on this server was more decorated than I had remembered. I don't seem to recall putting the glass and brick in my protected area. Was that you, or did someone hack my account?

[maikerumine]

SERVER DOWN for the day, protector and coreprotector mods are conflicting.

Sorry for the troubles.

[maikerumine]

In case anybody wanted to see the error in question:
During placing a protector in an already protected area, the following events occur...
Last night spawn_sanitizer locked up:

That's cool, i'll just remove this mod. Take that!

Time passes....
Now for protector to act up....

Hmmm.... so it is a "can dig" function.

Strange thing is this just cropped up and I didn't change anything in spawn_sanitizer or protector when the first errors occurred.


But we see this:
Runtime error from mod '' in callback item_OnPlace()

Hmmm what does this mean? let's dig, shall we...

bingo!
I needed to mirror protection checks on both the protector mod and the coreprotectmod, with these lines here:
if itemstack:get_name() == "protector:protect"
or itemstack:get_name() == "protector:protect2"

Code: Select all

-- Make sure protection block doesn't overlap another coreprotector's area

coreprotector.old_node_place = minetest.item_place

function minetest.item_place(itemstack, placer, pointed_thing)

	if itemstack:get_name() == "protector:protect"
	or itemstack:get_name() == "protector:protect2"
	or itemstack:get_name() == "coreprotector:protect"
	or itemstack:get_name() == "coreprotector:protect2" then
		local user = placer:get_player_name()
		if not coreprotector.can_dig(coreprotector.radius * 2, pointed_thing.above, user, true, 3) then
			minetest.chat_send_player(user,
			"Overlaps into another protected area")
			return coreprotector.old_node_place(itemstack, placer, pointed_thing.above)
		end
	end

	return coreprotector.old_node_place(itemstack, placer, pointed_thing)
end

Furthermore:

I am an idiot and cannot program therefore, most of the server crashes come from a wild idea in my head and I act on it.

[bucky]

Maikerumine the server has shutdown on me it. Says my connection is lost

[bucky]

My Nuclear Reactor should be up and running in just a few months

[bucky]

I have The uranium I just need more iron I'll mine that during the months

[bucky]

Maikurumine my Nuclear Reactor should be up and ready to have a meltdown for use in my underground mine

[bucky]

Don't worry it will be exactly at -5400 blocks feel in a giant Cubed Iron room
I'll have the uranium removed after the meltdown just make sure no one enters the lab

*facepalm* Edit buttons exist...
Sorry, just kind of weird to see five posts in a row all on the same topic by the same person... :S

maike, I ould love if we can team with nice bad players. Could you find a way to be able to team with (/tame).

Isn't "nice bad" a contradiction in itshelf? Guess you mean the "friendly" mobs that attack other hostile mobs and help you against them - unless you accidently hit the friendly mobs due to lag. They sometimes even tend to get confused amongst each other and attack other friendly mobs. But in general it works quite well and is nice to see. Maybe they could be "tamed" by building places for them to live in (bed, furnace, chest, door, roof...).

I tried to join server, but it wouldnt work. I think I have wrong IP adress, what is the current one?

Yes try it now, if you tried at 800 pm est today it was being updated!

[maikerumine]

SERVER DOWN?

I guess something odd happened, it keeps restarting and crashing. I won't be able to check it until later. FYI if you want to try a similar game, I have another server up called ESM CHAOS.

[rnd]

several ideas how to prevent protector spamming at spawn:

1. upon placing protector count nearby protectors and determine the price requirement to place it
2. price is directly related to distance from spawn (very easy and cheap to make as mod)

[rnd]

do something about cheaters, at -500 there is barrier but he is at -800, maybe auto remove of interact once player below -500
