Luanti Forums

Mod inventory pouches (my branch has various fixes, including inventory loading) uses detached inventories, for an item carried by a player, and it saves at server exit and loads at server start.

Choices are always more fun, but I'm sure the engine devs will say that choices make maintenance more complicated. I haven't played MC in a very long time, and didn't realize we had a better feature than they've got: the ability to walk over a single-node gap. I like that feature very much. The halo...

Hm, that does like like a problem, if it's going to do that. Perhaps a detached inventory is the safest, even though it would involve rework.

I would love to see the pad stay useful as-is; that is, in-game, and not needing to type a command to pull up the inventory.

Some three-minute bloviations: I found src/network/serverpackethandler.cpp#L868 bool Server::checkInteractDistance(RemotePlayer *player, const f32 d, const std::string &what) { ItemStack selected_item, hand_item; const ItemStack &tool_item = player->getWieldedItem(&selected_item, &ha...

I have some essential mods for Minetest Game too.

But I hear every server ends up being a "mod soup" based on the admin's preference.

I understand. I dislike drift in a project too. If you can handle it, keep using your old version of Luanti with the target version of mineclone2. Hopefully your target operating system will let you keep using that version of Luanti. And ContentDB will keep old versions of projects around for you, I...

Don't get too excited. I know that the Mineclonia hoppers also receive redstone signals (very similar to redstone [mesecons] in VoxeLibre) to be disabled. That is, if you have it near a propagated redstone signal (such as an enabled powered rail), then the hopper will receive redstone signal and be ...

Really useful, thanks! For python3/debian, it would be these instructions:

If you're using container tech, which container image you use affects the location of the default minetest.conf. So that --config <path> is a great option. Official Luanti docker container uses CMD ["--config", "/etc/minetest/minetest.conf"] , and the linuxserver.io one uses &quo...

Hi red rider, I'm not one of the ContentDB mods. Not all of those folks come here to the forum (very often or at all? Unclear). If you have access to irc or matrix, look for libera.chat #luanti. I know some of them hang out there. I've had problems with my mods getting stuck in the review phase. I s...

1. I think it will redraw a tile when you visit the chunk, but I'm not certain. If you have to, just make a small change and revert it, and it should make the tile get redrawn. 3. I don't know what to tell you for this, sorry. I suppose you also need to restart the mapserver in case you made changes...

1. Based on my limited experience, you can set your own colors with setting the <worldpath>/colors.txt file. If you make changes to this file, you might need to delete your already generated tiles, or maybe wait for the next refresh of that zone. I had an amusing change when I fixed the (known-outda...

Well, this is a free software project. Anyone is welcome to write modifications. But getting the upstream community to accept changes is a whole different matter.

I never really liked the MC launcher stuff. If it's Windows-esque, that might explain why I dislike it.

Is anyone aware of using the native crafting recipe format, for defining a recipe ingredient whose group membership excludes a named group? Most recipes that use, say, "group:stick" don't care about the other attributes. But let's say I want "group:stick,!group:purple," or that i...

If Mineclonia cares about adjusting mending to follow some upstream, to weaken it, I'll figure out a mod to restore it. I'm already bothered the sugarcane doesn't grow to 3 blocks anymore, merely because the wiki indicates it has random chance of being 2, 3, or 4 tall.

Thanks for explaining some of that; unfortunately, most of that was over my head. Is there a current minimum specification for a CPU and RAM for a Mineclonia server admin who doesn't make any of those minetest.conf customizations, for Luanti 5.15.0? So default everything, but using mapgen "sing...

I tend to play Mineclonia, and their default inventory screen is already pretty fully-featured. When I did play Minetest Game, I tried i3 and thought it was fine. I haven' tried any of the others, and I don't even recognize some of these names. Perhaps you could write a long post describing each one...

On the topic of what kind of systems can run Mineclonia, what are the recommended specs for running that mcl_levelgen? Also, how does one choose to use mcl_levelgen? I have tried searching and couldn't find any definitive answers on that. Edit: searched further, and found https://codeberg.org/minecl...

Do you think it would be worthwhile if I wrote a mod that added a highlighter pen tool that lets a player highlight nodes in-game? I could see this being useful/fun for people, who might be less lua-savvy.

Just wanted to drop in and say I saw that picture with the highlighted boxes on CDB a few days ago, and I was like, Did he include a helpful visual preview, or didn't he, it seems unlikely, but maybe he did? And then I took a closer look and saw that it was just colored in after. But than my brain ...

I missed this until the recent update. Thanks for this great mod! I found what I would consider to be multiple bugs. 1. Title: Fails to return nodes to inventory when tearing down What happens Left-clicking to remove a layer of nodes from the wall does not put those removed nodes back in my inventor...

Ooh, if somebody does fork Mineclonia (for the zillionth time, apparently), I'd give it a shot The potential project manager hasn't really set any project goals except increased backwards compatibility, and maybe getting stuff before it's even in Minecraft, so.. a breakneck pace to keep up with, al...

Ooh, if somebody does fork Mineclonia (for the zillionth time, apparently), I'd give it a shot. I love that VoxeLibre is around, but apparently they're going in their own creative direction. What I want is a MINECR~1 experience that respects the user, so MinecloniaDX sounds like it would do that jus...

This build is awesome! I have at least one user on Windows, and we learned that before he could connect to a network instance of Mineclonia, he had to run a local world just once. Before instantiating his own local world for just one second, he tried connecting to a network instance, but got stuck a...

Do you have a release of Clonti that includes the January 13 commit of mcl_localplayer? I am preparing to distribute to my mates who use Windows. If you need manpower to help run CI builds or something, let me know. I don't have any Windows environments for manual builds.
