Re: MTSatellite: A "realtime" web mapping system for Minetes
@texmex You can use it. It is not 'recommended' in the way as we don't use SQLite as our productive backend. So the SQLite code path is not tested in production as good as the the LevelDB path. But for small/medium sized worlds with not too many users/viewers it is fast enough because there are some...

Re: MTSatellite: A "realtime" web mapping system for Minetes
@temex
Looks like you have configure a LevelDB as backend but you path points to a SQLite database.
If you want mtredisalize to use a SQLite backend you have to use '-driver=sqlite' as an option.

Re: MTSatellite: A "realtime" web mapping system for Minetes
We use MTSatellite 0.8 for half a month with a MT 0.4.14 server without any problems. Currently we have an Go 1.7 beta compiled version installed which gives a performance boost over the 1.6.2 compiled version up to 15% on our AMD64 system. As the new Go compiler chain is still experimental use it w...

Re: MTSatellite: A "realtime" web mapping system for Minetes
I've merged the feature back. The tests on my local instance look pretty good. We will upgrade our production server to the new version of MTSatellite in a couple of days (when doing the 0.4.14 update of the MT server). BTW: MTSatellite have learned to set the background color [1]. This may be inter...

Re: MTSatellite: A "realtime" web mapping system for Minetes
@Minetestforfun Im mainly looking for performance improvments about the mapper :) Yes. There is an experimental branch [1] which SHA1 checksums regenerated base tiles and does not write them to disk if they don't change. This safes a lot of disk I/O and CPU too, because the pyramid tiles depending o...

Re: MTSatellite: A "realtime" web mapping system for Minetes
@Minetestforfun
Looks better than before. In my eyes the affected zone is smaller than before. The problem will resolve if you walk into the remaining affected areas.
The radical solution would be a complete re-seeding of the map but I think this should not be necessary.

I've added the description how to use the transparency to the SETUP text.
My folks love that feature because they have build some undersea structures which without this would be invisible.

Re: MTSatellite: A "realtime" web mapping system for Minetes
Looks promising :-)
The world.mt settings look valid.
My guess is that you don't have build your Minetest server with Redis support.
See the issue for detail.

So ... I've add a SETUP [1] to the repository. This should help to figure out how to bring MTSatellite to life. I will smooth the wording and fix all the typos in the next couple of days.
Feedback welcome.

mtredisalize ... Redis serving LevelDB or SQlite3 worlds
Hi! (/me being new on this board but a devoted long time Minetest player) I've wrote a little server called mtredisalize [1] that implements a small subset of the Redis protocol to serve your LevelDB or SQLite3 worlds directly as a Redis backend. The Redis backend is fast and fine but it uses by its...
