game with no monsters? solved (self.minetest)

Hi everyone! Can someone please recommend a game without monsters (but with animals)? I am running my minetest server at home and I'd like to start playing with my kid, but I really don't like the monsters bit. I just want a game where we can explore and build things together.

Thanks!

ETA: For anyone looking for the same thing: I've added the option

only_peaceful_mobs = true

in minetest.conf under minetest/data/games/mineclone2

I've waited for the next night cycle and no monsters spawned. But a cow mooing behind me scared lol.

Thanks to @[email protected] for the tip!

VoxeLibre (formerly Mineclone 2) supports this. The server has the option for "Peaceful mode" which does what you describe within the VoxeLibre options.

Note that the setting is within the VoxeLibre options (and not the Minetest options). :)

Maybe MineClone has that since Minecraft has a "peaceful" difficulty setting without monsters

For animals you could use this:

You can uncheck 'Enable Damage' on the start screen and the monsters will still be present, but unable to harm players. (This is what I do for playing with my kids.)

Also, MineGame/default doesn't come with any monsters. If you build up hand selected mods from MineGame, you can skip any that include monsters and end up with a full features, but monster free, MineCraft clone.
