By starting a game with "Creative Mode" enabled from the client, using /gamemode survival to switch away from the creative UI doesn't have the expected effect - the game stays in creative mode.

On top of that, the default mining/punch range of Minetest also overrides our values.

Idk about the punch range, might be that we just doesn't apply it for "setting-creative" but the creative mode overriding is intentional i guess ... to a degree at least, the idea was to preserve the old behavior as much as possible.

To fix this, if we want to, we'd basically have to make the setting-creative the same as gamemode-creative, in technical terms: our minetest.is_creative_enabled would always have to return the player setting and not the global setting.

Some things would probably be different in setting-creative then however.

If possible, the game should start in creative mode if the client had this option enabled, regardless of what the gamemode was before shutting down. But if /gamemode survival is issued, we should switch to survival even if the "Creative Mode" was enabled.
