This is nifty from a code perspective, but it seems it's been overtaken by Minetest development. Testing the benchmarks on modern Minetest 5.7.0 with JIT shows this takes roughly twice as long as standard vectors (which include handy metatable functions now, too).
Standard results:

i been searching for something like this since i learnt minetest was a thing
this is very fun even if its basic right now the features right now are enough to want to open a dedicated server about it i hope the comunity gets intersted enough into making new monsters and even alter other aspects like maybe putting custom music and whatnot really ecxited to see how this develops in time.
Very good for hoarding stuff, the regular inventory space seems never enough
It is not compatible with Mesecraft, but I modified the init.lua file in order to fix the missing ingredient. Just adding the top condition in line 291 to include mesecraft_mobs:leather :
-- use leather if mesecraft_mobs found
if minetest.get_modpath("mesecraft_mobs") then
item1 = "mesecraft_mobs:leather"
-- use leather if mobs redo found
elseif minetest.get_modpath("mobs") then
item1 = "mobs:leather"
-- use leather if petz found
elseif minetest.get_modpath("petz") then
item1 = "petz:leather"
end
Please add it to the main source code, I wasn't sure how to make the request.

Gosto bastante do seu Mod. Gostaria de solicitar que seja adicionado minerais comuns (ferro, cobre, prata, ouro, etc) na geração de mapa e também que seja adicionado outros minerais que de fato sao abundantes em asteroides, mas não são abundantes na terra (platina, irídio, etc)
[EN]
I really like your Mod. I would like to request that common minerals (iron, copper, silver, gold, etc.) be added to the map generation and also that other minerals be added that are in fact abundant on asteroids, but are not abundant on Earth (platinum, iridium, etc.)
Something that bothers me very much with many minetest mods is that the artwork leaves much to be desired, but this is definitely an exception. The items are decent but the dragons and blocks are fantastic! I was surprised also at how nice and smooth the animations are. The mod works as promised so really all i have to say is that this is a fantastic mod!
I love being able to enchant my weapons and items. This is a much needed mod. The one thing I would like to see is being able to put the enchantments in a book so items can have more than just 1 or 2 random enchantments. It would be nice to choose which ones you want through books. That and it would also make another use for books
...minimalistic builders like me. The only "bug" I noticed is that when you place the "base" block it blinks in pink color for a second and then turns white, I don't know why.
I haven't played this mod in mtg but can tell it will be very useful as it is good for education purposes. I don't know Spanish, actually don't even know how to speak. But this mod can remove that ignorance from my mind and fill it with the ablility to talk to many members of this community who have Spanish as their mothertounge.
I have a request for you too, could you make a mod for Japanese too
I recommend it for learning the basic mechanics of the Mesecons and it's addons
Given that the project is in the development phase, it doesn't make sense to judge strictly. I would like more exercises, especially on building logic circuits, programming Lua controllers and interacting with Digilines and Digistuff, without indirect hints as to where to place the objects to solve the problem) . Also, examples of using Technic, using the rest of the machines and mechanisms and combining with Digilines could be expanded.
All in all, the Mesecons Lab project is worth more attention, and I sincerely hope that it will not be abandoned.
This mod is capable of using with other languages without much effort. Im using it for ᏣᎳᎩ language which has a syllabary and uses Latin and Glyphs for writting.
The Official Minetest CTF server uses this mod. And I can check if I am spending too much playing the game. You know too much spending time on playing video games is not healthy especially since you can't break every 20 minutes to rest your eyes during the playtime on a PvP server.
Doesn't Play Well with Others (But probably has reasons)
Having fled MC because of MalevolenceSoft I've been trying out MT. Mineclonia is nice with only a couple of real problems so far. No blaming or complaining, just info for the newcomer and the wary.
The biggest problem is that most mods require "default", so that's a problem. I don't know what exactly is being provided in default or if an api could be used to bridge the requirement. It's just a thing to know.
Next, Mineclonia supposedly provides xpanes, but I'm getting error messages about needing xpanes. These things happen, I'm sure it will get fixed eventually. There may be others.
Lastly, and this isn't a Mineclonia thing, MT modpacks aren't really modifiable. If I decide I don't want something, or want to swap it for something else, I can't. I understand the reasons. I also understand that it could be better. To be fair, even if it was conflicts and requirements can create a mess for modded modpacks and increase the maintenance. (Not that the problems aren't there, they just aren't problems yet.)
So I'm having fun, but I'm going to try some more packs. It's all good.
I like it. I think the animation of zooming in is easier to use than the instant zoom. I think instant zoom is jarring and disorientating sometimes as it's a sudden shift to a new image. Whereas the zoom animation helps track the zoom focus easier and transition from normal to zoomed. I added it to MeseCraft after testing this out a bit. I'll test it more and if it functions well, it'll probably stay in that game/modpack. Thanks!
I think the mod is good, becaurse I often need the string of a Item (for my mods) and this mod shows them. For blocks I can use F5 to show the strings but this doesn't work with items. Good job!
The textures have excellent finish and high contrast.
The style of the textures seems mediabal to me, which looks quite good.
Personally I would like a version with a higher resolution, like 128px or 256px.
Something additional I can say is that I find it necessary to activate mipmapping; which helps visually and can even improve in-game performance.
Nicely coded, but outdated

My favourite mod
I love playing around with mesecon circuits and creating interesting things.
Love The Plane
Love the plane and you should make a dreamliner next

finally a worthy competitor to immersive trains
, i love mods that expand on techage ,
a new different style for zoonamies
, want to have a less comic/scrapbook zoonami look , and more of fantasy , then install this mod
nice new plane from apercy
thank you (also how did you get those reflections in the thumbnail or did i not check the forum often enough)
tuxemon but minetest
, have you ever wanted to combine the monster collection of tuxemon with the building capabilities in minetest ? , then this mod is for you

Rare example of great artwork

Love the idea.
Are these used to smelt things?
Fun and educational!
Great way to learn Cherokee/Tsalagi language. Language sounds and characters are really well done.
Awesome mod that was so needed
I love being able to enchant my weapons and items. This is a much needed mod. The one thing I would like to see is being able to put the enchantments in a book so items can have more than just 1 or 2 random enchantments. It would be nice to choose which ones you want through books. That and it would also make another use for books
Stunning!
This is what I was looking for, I like pixel art and this mod is perfect for me. Making new palette is so easy, thank you man.
Added Tsalagi ᏣᎳᎩ
Very good mod was able to add additional language Tsalagi ᏣᎳᎩ.
Finally!
I have been wanting a mod that intergrates Tech Age an d Advtrains for so long!
Awesome mod for...
...minimalistic builders like me. The only "bug" I noticed is that when you place the "base" block it blinks in pink color for a second and then turns white, I don't know why.
Trully amazing
this is the type of mod this game needs

it's cool mod

Perfect for...
...creative flat worlds! this mod is better than the Minetest built-in superflat option.

Good, but needs work.
Overall I recommend it, it's my go-to game built on the MineTest Engine but there's still many problems as of 2023-10-07.
Cool mod!
I love 2FA mods! this mod make a server safer!
Cool mod!
This mod help me on the server!
Yes, very good mod. Thank You!

You can check if you are playing too much

fun mod.
Great mod
who wouldn't want spawn eggs?
moddy
very moddy
Powerfull! It good mod for make easy daily administrative tasks
Thanks, it very powerfull as root TTY, but for minetest as well!
Also, note for chatsocket and consocket, i try install with distro package installer, but not provide socket.unix
After few research I find way:
# {your pkg manager} install lua51-dev(el) luarocks-lua51
# luarocks-5.1 install luasocket-unix
and after, it works! Default luasocket too new, and no have unix sockets.
handy for everyone
good mod to use in creative and survival, can't get back to 8 slots after using 16 or more.
A great improvement...
...to the gameplay, nice sounds that make the game even better.
String-Infos
I think the mod is good, becaurse I often need the string of a Item (for my mods) and this mod shows them. For blocks I can use F5 to show the strings but this doesn't work with items. Good job!
3D Armor is one of the most useful mods out there for survival worlds
3D Armor is one of the most useful mods out there for survival worlds
Great job
It reminds me a lot of the series "Adventure Time." Very good for PVP, since they have very bright colors.
I like it, professional textures.
The textures have excellent finish and high contrast. The style of the textures seems mediabal to me, which looks quite good.
