  If the engine itself is crashing you should report the bug in the minetest issue tracker https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/

  fgaz Crash when talking to the ghost 2023-12-22 12:46 UTC

  When I try to right click the ghost right after the title appears, I get

  AsyncErr: Lua: Runtime error from mod 'citadel_core' in callback luaentity_run_simple_callback(): ...fgaz/.minetest/games/citadel/mods/citadel_core/ghost.lua:27: attempt to concatenate a nil value stack traceback: ...fgaz/.minetest/games/citadel/mods/citadel_core/ghost.lua:27: in function <...fgaz/.minetest/games/citadel/mods/citadel_core/ghost.lua:22>

  if I had a way to spread the calculation out over time to only block the server for non-noticeable amounts of time, I would certainly prefer that.

  You can do something like this:

  function doLargeWork()
    if not finished then
      doFractionOfWork()
      minetest.after(0, doLargeWork)
    end
  end

  Thank you!

  Just a suggestion: more people will know about your mod if your license wouldn't require to open source server code too

  It doesn't matter to me, I prefer the code to remain free for all users. Besides, the EUPL doesn't require you to open source all your server, just this mod. Other mods and the game you are applying the mod to are not considered modifications/derivatives. Sources:

  fgaz Very helpful for testing mods 2023-01-17 22:29 UTC

  This "game" includes a lot of tools that exercise all kinds of Minetest features. Very useful during mod development to test how your mod interacts with various types of nodes, items, entities...

  Every item has a purpose, there are no decorative nodes (in fact the textures are quite ugly). There is one grass, one wood, one stone... on the other hand there are many variations of item/nodes with different properties, such as liquids with many different ranges and viscosities that you won't find in a regular game.

  As others already wrote, this is not for playing. Well, except if you enjoy messing with the engine.

  fgaz Fun game with a great atmosphere 2022-11-26 20:42 UTC

  I love the ambience you built! The intro sequence was really good (maybe even a first among minetest games?), the helpers are super cute (even though it's a parkour game I wish there were more optional interactions!), and the maps play well. Good choice of soundtrack too. In general the game looks very polished for a game jam entry, congrats!

  The controls surprised me at times (long slide, unexpected momentum when jumping off, abilities not working at the edge of blocks), but I quickly got used to them. Maybe I’m supposed to play in third person? That would explain the slide distance.

  Version 2.0.0 adds a remove function. Could you update your review?

  Thanks!

  Adding a Remove function would be better

  That's actually planned, along with setting the amount to extrude. By the way, which of these options do you think is better?

  Option 1:

  • Right click anywhere to set extrusion amount (can be negative) through a formspec
  • Left click to extrude (or remove if the amount is negative)

  Option 2:

  • Right click on air to set extrusion amount (cannot be negative) through a formspec
  • Right click on a block to extrude
  • Left click on a block to remove

  I'm leaning towards the second
