Mover

A Minetest mod which adds a tool that makes moving nodes containing metadata such as chests and protection blocks extremely simple.

The tool abides by protection rules, including owner metadata and the protection_bypass priv.

It copies all node metadata to the tool on left click and on rightclick places the node and copies metadata over to the node. Including inventories.

Since the device uses the on_place function there is no worrying about unconfigured nodes (such as protection blocks without owners).

    This mod cannot be debugged

    This mod relies on minetest.item_place, which is very broken in this context. See: https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/issues/3134 . Any nodes which have an overridden on_place can be duped (!), this includes *_grass_1, default:tree (!), saplings, and probably so much more. Was this mod even tested at all? I've spent so many hours trying to fix this mod. I can either get it to accidently delete nodes sometimes when you try to place it where a sapling is (best case) or dupe every node (worst case). I'm at a loss. If someone knows a magical fix for this mod that makes it work with every node, please fix it and you can make fun of my struggle. If you're looking for a mod that lets you move chests, try i_have_hands. It to my knowledge has no crazy dupe or delete glitches.
