i will be posting here next few days some information intended for people from threadiverse who may get interested in Luanti-based games on how to adapt if they are coming from Minecraft

i dont have the time for creating video content (recording, editing, so on) so i will just share videos already around on PeerTube (feel free to comment YouTube videos but i wont link those on my posts)

these are convenience posts for threadiverse lurkers, if someone wants to do a more complete in one place posts and maybe video, feel free to do it the more the better for getting people to try out and stick around longer on Luanti

thanks i wasnt aware it involved so many complications to be able to accomplish being able to just get the "token" (good to know though), 2FA is already a bit of incovenience you get used to for extra security but involving all of these more is overwhelming so i guess i never will use passkeys

    Under Explore on People section, there's an All directory (instanceURL/instance/all/people - e.g. https://piefed.social/instance/all/people), then add their PeerTube handle on Add people page (instanceURL/instance/add_people)

    When viewing a PeerTube channel, under VIDEO CHANNEL there's their name and under it their @ if you click their handle will be copied

    thanks, yes it would be awesome for people who likes creative. theres the aspect that some Luanti server admins (if they have worldedit on the server, even if its survival) will also be willing to share schematics of players who want to export their own build to their singleplayer map but the exchange of schematics seen to be done through discord chat by what i noticed

    you will be happy to know gamepads are officially built-in with the Luanti 5.17.0 update

    Initial Gamepad Support

    Luanti now supports using a wide range of gamepads to move around and interact with the world. Gamepads cannot be used to interact with menus yet, so you’ll still need a mouse or touchscreen for those. You can rebind actions on the gamepad in the settings menu. We plan on improving gamepad support in future releases.

    While Luanti previously had experimental support for gamepads, it was quite broken and didn’t work with most hardware. The gamepad code was rewritten to use modern APIs (SDL) and better fit into our codebase.

    thanks but i meant the ladder :) world builds like someone built a ship, they would share the map with the build or just the chunk containing the ship which you can get with the worldedit mod

    Bitwarden is a big no for me but thanks.. im more fond of keepass-based ones like ChiPass, how do you "extract" the passkey token from setting so i can type it elsewhere instead of it prompting on the device you are clicking using internet?

    cool thanks! excuse my question being dummy but isnt passkey tied to devices? i like TOTP because i can easily transfer to any device i can install a TOTP app (or password managers which many support TOTP and doesnt need internet) to keep it isolated from the device i connect and use and just get the 6 digits to type when i need it
