1. The sandbox code is obviously copied from one mod I know too well, so notices are mandatory.
2. I currently work on a more powerful sandbox, you can find it at https://gitlab.com/numzero/libluabox. Currently it works in the same stateless mode as this one, but that may be changed if wanted. I may also add multithread support to it (but that would complicate API a lot).

I was able to do this, with help from a random word generator and copy + paste:

(Ignore the usage, just the size of the folder.)

I was able to do this by making a big file by copying and pasting this code a few times, so I ended up with a file ~200mb. (Using clear fixed any lag caused by the large amount of characters on screen.) When I had a suitably large file, using this code, I was able to make copies of it: for i = 1, 50 do fs.copy("test", "test" .. i) end That made ~10gb of files. I don't think there's a maximum limit to the number of files you can copy in one go. (I'm surprised it doesn't time out.) Also, while copying the files, the game hangs completely.

Maybe a size limit needs to be added either to individual files, or to the computer folder as a whole, to prevent computers being abused in this way. (Even with a size limit on individual files (or even computers), a player could still make a huge amount of them, it would just take a bit longer. And even if players had their own size limit, they could still make multiple accounts...)

I'm really enjoying playing around with the mod - great work!

Nowadays, Minetest provides a key-value storage for mods. It should be safer and more reliable than separate files.

I redownloaded the mod and now it is not loading ...

I don't have any problems with any other mods ...

I never downloaded lua on my computer ??? does I need to download it for this mod ???
I'm on Windows.

Hi!
Its name is "digicompute" not "digicomputer", it's a mistake or your own choice?
