Yes. minetest.rotate_and_place ignored protection. I've fixed it here.TenPlus1 wrote:It seems that cactus and tree blocks can be placed in a protected areas without any problems, any idea why ??
Areas has no maximum or minimum size by default. And self-protection is limited to 50*100*50m^3 by default.freejack wrote:Ok it seems there is some lag between the update and the readme. I know it is not config.lau but settings.lau. I need to increase the max area to protect.
it says the max is 1024m^2, trying to increase it to 5000 or more. When I do it crashes on boot.
Sokomine wrote:The areas mod usually works pretty well and protecs reliably. Try my markers mod. It has a book and a marker stone that allow you to visualize the area. That way you can check if you protected the right place.
[Edit] Of course it might be that all your other players have extensive privs and are thus allowed to build in any area. Check if they got the areas-priv.
Yes. Players with that priv are area maintainers and can build there regardless of ownership. Do not give the areas priv to normal players. Only give it to your moderators/trustworthy players.BRICK wrote: Oh, so if they have the areas priv, then they are able to build on protected areas?

TNT mods should check for protection, as should mesecons pistons, using the protection API in the engine. File a issue with those mods. (Although there isn't area protection checking in the engine yet...)gsmanners wrote:There's also a few caveats:
- Doesn't protect your area from TNT or mesecon pistons (might have to adjust those mods if you use them).
- Doesn't protect your area from flowing water or lava placed on some kind of ledge a griefer might decide to build at the border.
0.4.9 has a bug in client initialization, the TOCLIENT_HUD_ADD command is sent, but it's sent before the client is ready to handle it. Update to a recent git build, wait for 0.4.10, or downgrade.CraigyDavi wrote:The area owners on the HUD do not seem to be working.
This happened just after I updated server to version 0.4.9.
Would anyone know what the problem could be? The hud.lua file is there.
At the moment it seems to sometimes show the area owners on the HUD but rarely.ShadowNinja wrote:0.4.9 has a bug in client initialization, the TOCLIENT_HUD_ADD command is sent, but it's sent before the client is ready to handle it.

It's a race condition I believe, so your client might be ready in time, or might not.CraigyDavi wrote: At the moment it seems to sometimes show the area owners on the HUD but rarely.
It was fixed a few days after your build.CragyDavi wrote: So I need to update the minetest version. I use a dev build from January the 26th. Do I need a newer version?
Works ok, am somehow still able to place doors though...ShadowNinja wrote:Yes. minetest.rotate_and_place ignored protection. I've fixed it here.TenPlus1 wrote:It seems that cactus and tree blocks can be placed in a protected areas without any problems, any idea why ??
Ok thanks. I'll update it soon.ShadowNinja wrote:It was fixed a few days after your build.CraigyDavi wrote: So I need to update the minetest version. I use a dev build from January the 26th. Do I need a newer version?
Same here. People can place doors in protected areas.TenPlus1 wrote:Works ok, am somehow still able to place doors though...ShadowNinja wrote:Yes. minetest.rotate_and_place ignored protection.

That needs to be fixed in minetest_game in the doors mod.CraigyDavi wrote: Same here. People can place doors in protected areas.
