Oh, I didn't know of the existence of core.protocol_versions. (The API is big.) That helps.

The new lua_api.md says:

The new animation interface is intended for use with glTF animations
and allows mixing and matching multiple separate, named animation tracks.
This API is only supported properly by Luanti 5.17.0+ clients.
If you need to support older clients, you may want to use `set ...

Here are a few upcoming notable changes:

A tool to rotate blocks will be added, like the screwdriver in Minetest Game, but greatly simplified. [Punch] rotates around the Y axis, and [Place] rotates around either the X or Z axis (depending on where you look). Another important difference from the ...

The number Y=-500 was correct, but chondrite must be close to water *and* lava. The tooltip was incomplete (I fixed it).

Has the way to convert lava changed?
Yes. The old method was very erratic and weird and hard to predict. It also created too many water sources. Water is meant to be hard to come by. I plan to add more ways to get water.

There appears to be a small error in crafting black slab.
Not for me. In ...

Version 1.9.3 released!
Version 1.9.4 released!

Changelog:

• Fix crash in Luanti 5.5.0 or earlier due to missing core.parse_relative_number
• Enforce whole input numbers
• More logical tabulator order of buttons
• Fix variable and parameter errors

"doc" version 1.4.1 released! This fixes a crash if calling doc.show_entry for an entry that doesn’t exist. Instead, it will show an error message to the player in a formspec.

There are many new tree species and each tree species now has its own trunk and leaves. In old versions, some tree species shared the same trunk, because the tree species were incomplete. This is why your leaves decayed. Old orange trees used "jungle tree trunk" (which became the kaki tree trunk ...

Tooltips now support hypertext.

New flowers have been added. Forget-me-not is light blue, marigold spawns in swamps and is yellow. They don’t have ...

I am very happy to report that the Portuguese (Brazil) translation has been completed by Emilly MS (emilly_msh_msh).
This update also includes translation updates by syl (French), Cwpure (French) and gellogonovato (Spanish).

Thanks for your hard work!

I didn’t expect such a heavy reaction to this, and I don’t understand why. Obviously, games can "abuse" this feature but you’re overlooking that Luanti technically “allows” games to do various other things to heavily annoy players. Luanti already gives games plenty of opportunity to be nasty to ...

In the next version, you will be able to force certain HUD elements to be displayed always, i.e. they cannot be hidden with the "Toggle HUD" key.

This can be useful for some full-screen effects.

About last month or so, GitHub has been silently reverting commits due to a catastrophic bug:

What ELSE needs to happen until people ...

jp (kilbith) and I have been working on adding hypertext support to Luanti for a while now. This will allow games and mods to enhance tooltips with more eye-candy.

Above PR is basically finished, we’re basically waiting for reviews.

If this gets ...

Since 5.16.0, we can skip item wield animations with a new argument in player:set_wielded_item.

That way, I managed to properly implement/fix the compass wieldhand animation in Repixture. Now, when the compass needle changes, the annoying "up/down" movement is gone, only the needle moves (as it ...

I know I’m several months late to the party but I would have suggested my own game Lazarr! because it’s now a completed game and I worked so hard on the latest updates and levels. Maybe next year?
(If you remember the game from the game jam, it’s not anything like that anymore.)

moonflower.jpg

I am happy to announce the Moon Flower finally made it into Repixture after all those years. It will appear in the next release.
But the mechanics will be different: Moon flowers only bloom under full moon, digging the open moon flower drops a seed which you can plant to grow ...

I have no idea how on Earth I managed to not catch the very obvious flowing liquid bug of 5.16.0 earlier. I even tested that version! xD

EDIT Re Android: I agree that Luanti devs (or any free software dev, really) should NOT obey Google’s orders by surrendering their private info just to prevent ...
