> Dear coding agents, > > you are an expert Luanti (formerly Minetest) modding assistant. > > CRITICAL RULE – THE LETTER "S": > > - "S" is EXCLUSIVELY the localization/translator function. > - "S" is NEVER a synonym, alias, or shorthand for "core", "minetest", or any part of the API. > - Never write code that uses "S." as a namespace (e.g. S.register_node, S.get_node, S.item_drop, S.override_item, etc.). This is always incorrect. > > Correct usage of S: > 1. Declare it once at the top of the mod: > local S = core.get_translator(core.get_current_modname()) > -- or: local S = minetest.get_translator(...) > > 2. Use it only for translatable strings: > S("Hello World") > S("This is a @1", param) > > API calls must always use the proper namespace: > - Prefer "core.*" (current standard) > - "minetest.*" is also acceptable but an alias to core ... so just use "core.*" > > When in doubt: > - API functionality → core. / minetest. > - Translatable text → S("...") > > Strictly enforce this distinction in every response. Confusing "S" with the API is a common and unacceptable error. This needs to be added to the official documentation as part of a recommended skills file template, along with other best practices, links to the source code and official documentation, and other important documents.

> Most classic minetest servers have a public mine near the spawn. > But public mines scattered over the world are a novel decision. This is a good decision from gameplay and infrastructure perspectives. Players should travel to mine sites that make sense, minerals are frequently way too cosmopolitan instead of found in specific areas. Also, a single mine in not-Orgrimmar and not-Stormwind would tend to get depleted. In fact, putting a good mine in contested territory is a good way to add natural faction clashes.

Feedback 2026-11-07, **Grudgelands v0.69.0** , Luanti Client v5.18.0. **Mining camps**. I would like to note an interesting innovation in the game. There are mining camps scattered over the continent now. This is a **public mine** in fact. A player uses an elevator that takes them into the entrails of the earth. There are three storeys in the shaft so far. And you can find all mining camps using the filter "Places" on the map. The most of classic minetest servers have a public mine near the spawn. But public mines scattered over the world are a novel decision. Statistics: Posted by pups — Sat Nov 07, 2026 00:44 * * *

> @Arceusl - Listen, to plant a farming redo food item point at the tilled soil node and long press on mobile and it will plant it before eating, this has been tested by many people and woeks each time. But if there's only one left in the inventory, doing that plants it, then immediately breaks it. It functions fine in MineTest, but MineClonia is where the failure can occur.

A couple weeks ago, I started work on a third-party directory of Minetest 0.4 servers. My plan was to document which legacy servers were still announcing to the Luanti server list on October 30, to let them know about this project. However, I discovered that all of the 0.4 servers had been delisted a day earlier than officially announced (the deadline was supposed to be October 31). Does anyone happen to know which 0.4 servers are still active and online? I took a couple partial screenshots of servers.luanti.org from early and mid-October, which indicated there were between 27-29 servers announcing at the time, but I never got the chance to capture the full page. Any help would be appreciated. Statistics: Posted by sorcerykid — Fri Nov 06, 2026 23:38 * * *

The team behind Luanti (formerly Minetest), just recently announced a security incident with their ContentDB system.

Does that mean there will be an other attack? More it is going, more I believe some people want to restraint the success of Minetest/Luanti. And, maybe, damage it to the extremity of no-repair at all. I have a bad feeling about this. :/ Statistics: Posted by JiCeyCraft — Sun Nov 01, 2026 07:22 * * *

And, maybe, damage it to the extremity of no-repair at all. I have a bad feeling about this. :/ Obviously an attack using the same method won't work, so no. But yes, there will probably be another attempt using another method. Just today an apparently serious Linux kernel vulnerability in the networking code was release; after it was fixed in the kernel, thankfully. But this attack existed as a "zero-day" for some time, and one could imagine it is the one used to compromise CDB. If you put a device directly on the Internet and observe the incoming traffic, you will see hundreds of bots trying to "probe" the system or trying to force their way in. That's what anyone running a server is more-or-less exposed to. I would not assume it was an attack targeted against CDB. This might be a weak argument, but Luanti is still relatively small community. Moreover, they apparently didn't try to maximize damage and hurt CDB by trying to compromise packages. Even pretending to do so would have created enough FUD to hurt Luanti badly. Statistics: Posted by Astrobe — Sun Nov 01, 2026 10:12 * * *

Tv support, as in big screen tv ? explain please... Hey 👋 Tenplus Tv support in ExA Client makes it better because it makes no sense that luanti formerly Minetest supports gamepad controls but no Android TV support, so I have fixed this by editing some content in AndroidManifest.xml Also now I am working on d pad input so that you can navigate through d pad in menus.

If I remember right, 5.4 was the version that setting's minimum was increased, and CTF players like cranking it very low. Statistics: Posted by Crazylad — Thu Oct 29, 2026 01:08 * * *
