TextMod for Luanti / Minetest 🔗
TextMod is a lightweight mod that lets you spawn floating text anywhere in your world using the /text
command.
It's perfect for:
- Spawn messages
- Info signs
- Waypoints
- Custom map decorations
💡 Original idea by [nono]
✨ Features 🔗
/text
command to spawn floating text- Accepts HEX color codes (e.g.
#FF0000
) - Supports multi-line text using
\n
- Optionally configurable max number of texts and range via
settings.conf
/remove_text
command to delete text by ID or position- No dependencies required
🧪 Usage Examples 🔗
/text #00FF00 "Hello above me!"
/text 0 10 0 #FF0000 "Text at coordinates"

🔥 Known Limitations 🔗
Due to engine restrictions, colored nametags on entities are not reliably supported in all clients. The color
is stored and parsed correctly, but may appear as white depending on the Minetest or Luanti version.
