Hi TenPlus1
Firstly, I would like to say thanks for all of your time and effort to create and maintain so many wonderful Minetest mods, to make the game more enjoyable for many people! Yours are among my favourite Minetest mods, and usually some of the first that I enable on any server or local game that I create, and also recommend to other people. Especially, but not limited to Ethereal, Farming, Doors, Item Frames and Pedestals, Protector, Real torch, Regrow, and of course Mobs. All of the mobs mods... and on my laptop and my servers, I actually put all of your mobs mods (try saying that 10x fast!) together into a "modpack" directory called mobs_by_tenplus1, which makes it way easier to find all of the mobs mods and to enable specific ones or all at once :) So how do you feel about doing the same officially (combining all of your mobs mods into a "mobpack" ;-) ?).
Now the actual reason for my post:
A few days ago, I played with a friend on a server that I created on my ARM64 Ubuntu VPS on Oracle Cloud.
Then after everybody left the server (including me), I noticed in the server console messages, that the dmobs (at that time, in particular the dragons) were still quite active and "punching" other mobs (e.g. waterdragon and tree monster), tree monsters attacking cows,...
Could you perhaps add some code to let the mobs become inactive when no players are in the server? It just seems like a waste of (server) power/electricity, to have what is supposed to be an *idle* server (and using very little power), having to keep mobs interacting with each other... (perhaps it might make sense if the server had artificial intelligence and could actually "enjoy" watching them fighting each other LOL). To me it just seems pointless and wasteful, and probably easily avoidable with a few lines of code.
Also, could you please tell me how to mount dragons to ride them?
I tried (in creative mode) to mount dragons after spawning them from "Tamed ... dragon" eggs, but nothing (right click, sneak click, etc.) got my character to mount the dragons.
