Luanti sucks in modding support compared to minecraft.

I'm surprised to hear that was your experience

Modding means something very different in Luanti, and is a first class citizen.

Trees are a mod. The base game left them out, so we can mod in how we want "the concept of trees" to behave.

Luanti mods cannot override game code, so the patches to the game code are impossible with mods.

I get you didn't enjoy it, but I think your comment misleads others.

The vast majority of the code in any Luanti game is in the mods. The last 5% is in the game engine, which itself can still be swapped out, as needed.

Having modded both games extensively, Luanti was a breathe of fresh air, to me.

Due to this limitation, even the basic things like custom controls or shader support cannot be added using mods.

I don't care about shaders, so I cannot comment. Since Luanti manages mod sharing - keeping all clients in sync - maybe that creates challenges? Feels worth it to me.

As for custom controls, the Luanti mods on my server have plenty of custom controls, so I don't know what you experienced? Maybe support wasn't there when you tried it before?
