I at least got rid of the dead sites now.

A simple callback that will work here is core.after : core.after(0, core.set_node(vector.new(0,0,0), ...)) -- the completion of this line is left as your exercise 0 meaning no delay, but still after the game has begun and all mods are loaded. That's not the correct syntax for a callback. Doing that...

I think the most realistic way anyone can debug this issue would be if you were to upload a copy of your world.
No promise that I have time to look at it soon, however.

Yes. On the client collision detection can run for: particles, entities and the local physics.

maybe we should continue 0.4.x alongside 5.x as a seperate path ?

The core developers have no interest in doing this.
If you mean the community then there's been more than enough time for someone to step up and maintain a fork of Minetest 0.4. To my knowledge this hasn't happened.

As for the profiler screenshots, I've taken them at world start and when the FPS is lowest: [...] From the FPS information alone I can tell you that it's not a rendering issue, since 7ms rendering time should get you about 142 FPS. What is very suspicious is that the profiler is saying that the cli...

I know that there's a solution already but I want to note the following: If you voluntarily use a 7 year old software version (which is not a good idea) you really can't expect to still receive help and support for it. Minetest 0.4.17 also has several publicly documented game-, security- and privacy...

There's a Github issue for this: https://github.com/luanti-org/luanti/issues/16621

Which version of Luanti are you using? What are your engine settings (especially graphical effects)? Did you try changing them? Did you try disabling the mods you have? Not sure what the FPS actually is, but it's not something I can just get over and play through. You can see the exact FPS by pressi...

Thanks to the dedicated work of a few people we have been able to port the dynamic shadow shaders to Open GL ES, which means that you can now use them on Android! teaser.jpg How do I test? Download and install the APK from here (24MB). Go to Settings → Effects → Enable dynamic shadows. If this optio...

Note: I got rid of all 32-bit versions. Nobody needs that these days and even Microsoft is limiting its support for 32-bit Windows recently.

Luanti currently does not support a configuration where the external port does not match the port in config.
So make sure you're not using docker's port remapping.

I think ContentDB could actually reasonably estimate how many active installations a mod/game has by seeing how many clients download an update once a new version of a particular package has been published.

The reason remote media works so well for Luanti is not just offloading the delivery to another server/service, but also because our network protocol is (still) pretty bad at bulk data transfer. Starting with 5.12.0 Luanti will also compress files that it transfers with its own protocol. Your remote...

This has been brought up in a few contexts (most recently here) so the chances are good of this being added some time.
