Minetest Forums

Be like a Tourist in Minetest and visit Points of Interest.

With this little Mod you can set such Points at your own World or Server and give them Names.
Then, each Player with the Interact-Priv can jump to this Points with a simple Command in the Chat or opens the Gui and can jump to the Points with a double Mouseclick.

Admins can grant a new Priv named "poi". With this Priv, the player can set or delete this Points. Can move the Points or reload the List without a complete Serverrestart.

HF, Clyde & Gundul.

Nice idea!

Thx D00Med ;-).

Update: Now the List of Points are sortet in alphabetical Order.

Update:

• With Cooperation from Gundul, Admin of the Jungle-Server, PoI supports now optional unified_inventory and adds a Button to the Inventory that opens the GUI from PoI.
• Command /poi_rename added. Now you can rename Points.

super! now we can do some touristic visits on servers! i imagine the thing: "Here you ccan see the spawn! oh! there it's the fountain of..."

You're right, the basic idea behind this mod was this ;-).

That means this mod is like Compass GPS?

No, it don't show you any Point. It's more like a Public Travelnet. A substitute of commands on some server, that you can find, when you with an certain command will teleportet to a certain Point.
With this mod the admin is able to set such "Commands" as Points and can grant Players the Privileg to set such Point's too. All other Player with Interact-Privilege can use the Points but can't set, delete, move and so on this Points.

Update:

• Namefilter
• Categories for Points

+1 this seems good!

Update:

In Cooperation with Gundul, Admin of the Server Jungle, we present now:
POI with Categories and GUI.

Whats new now:

The Admin can now define Categories for the Point's, like Markets, Buildings or what ever you want.
Player with the POI-Privilege can then set the Point's to this from the Admin given Categories.
If a Player set's a Point without a Categorie, the Point gets automatic the first Categorie. For example: General.
Player can set a Categorie with the Number of the Categorie or the Name of the Categorie.
Player can change only the Categorie of an Point too.
A new GUI which supports now the Categories.
A GO-Button for Android-Player.
All Commands and some more at the Chatconsole available too.
To reach the GUI, Player needs the Privileg Interact.

Happy Sightseeing

Do not believe him ! Clyde did all the work. :) I only added a small window.



Click on the Button to open PoI - window :



Choose from categories and select your destination :

Today I found some time to write the management gui. You need poi priv to access it.
Access it from the usual poi_gui. But be careful it is just finished a few minutes ago. There
might be still some errors I do not know of.

Github pull request is made.


In pictures :

i love that trash icon :D i should use the default trash icon from creative inventory, or from United Inv.

Unified trash icon collection :) I like my trash icon. It is for admin only anyway.
But software is free available at github, so people can edit the png file to
whatever they want to :)

:) okay!

Update:
PoI stores now to the points the current facedir of the player.
This is backward compatible by read the old points.
After changing or store a new point, the point have the new format.

Code for facedir by Treer. Thank you.

Special Greetings, Clyde.
