Flight enabled in ethereal #1683

New Issue

Either Tenplus1 patches it out or we will. Most likely this already has been done due flux' quick reaction on Tenplus1's repo.
Find the players who did it: select * from "player_metadata" where "attr" like '%ethereal:fly_timer%'
Find the remaining potions ingame: cat Minetest_live.out | grep ethereal:flight_potion
/warn Everyone who uses or used fly potions, please report to AliasAlreadyTaken. Your playermeta needs to be cleaned and you can trade in your flight potions for the materials.

Since a mapgen mod is a terrible place for backdooring gamemechanics into a server, maybe we should add a minetest.clear_craft?

minetest.clear_craft

why? in case this happens again? suppose that makes sense.

also, re: the flight potions themselves; i was assuming they'd become unknown items, and was going to keep the single one i crafted as a souvenir. is that a problem?

Hopefully the roles mod will prevent that in the future, but you never know

Please destroy it or hand it in, I'll exchange it for the materials.

Having the potions as unknown items is not bad per se, but I think its unprofessional(?) or at least a sign of bad maintenance to have unknown items in the world. That's why I hunt them down, via log and database and everywhere I can :D
