02:35 zat          Anybody bothered if I add the possibility of adding a Lua function reference to the decorations list of a simple deco?
14:15 Megaf        maybe theres a new way to clearobjects that would not make the server freezes
14:15 Megaf        maybe something like the mese sand tubes
14:15 Megaf        they vacumm the objects
14:16 Megaf        so, a vacumm tube with a range of 16 nodes like could be place on the center of a 16x16x16 area and than the items pulverized
14:16 Megaf        this could be done block by block
14:17 Megaf        yes, it would take long, be it wouldnt have a big impact on perfromance
14:17 Megaf        performance*
14:25 CraigyDavi   Megaf, using the builtin_item mod seems to work for me
16:11 kaeza        small patch: https://github.com/kaeza/minetest/commit/2a33f7f92c5d274335d7e92865b6545e1d7954a7
16:29 kaeza        eh fuck it, this is better: https://github.com/kaeza/minetest/commit/5f6cb872604daad7dc205f3fac6787cc2ffe2322
16:30 Megaf        CraigyDavi: I don't understand how that works
16:32 Megaf        kaeza: that's a great idea
16:32 Megaf        did you made a pull request already?
16:32 kaeza        no
16:32 CraigyDavi   Simple, really. Just using remove_items in minetest.conf when using the mod. There's no problems
16:54 kaeza        there was a big party for pull request number 1000, and we are 1/3 of the way to 2k ._.
18:28 SoniEx2      nodes should get an on_entity_collide
18:32 RealBadAngel what for?
19:12 VanessaE     RealBadAngel: maybe he wants to make an in-game pinball machine :P

19:48 RealBadAngel ShadowNinja, here?
19:49 ShadowNinja  RealBadAngel: Yep.
19:49 RealBadAngel check the code, ttl still works in unloaded blocks, it adds dtime_s on activation
19:50 RealBadAngel which is game time - block's timestamp
20:15 Megaf        CraigyDavi: default is 300 seconds, so to change the value I just put remove_items = 120 in minetest.conf, right?
20:40 ShadowNinja  RealBadAngel: But why not just use the gametime?
20:41 ShadowNinja  VanessaE: I made a in-game PONG machine.  I stoped when a digilines/LuaC bug stoped my from making the controls properly though.
20:46 RealBadAngel ShadowNinja, i did before, but sapier thought that gametime may overflow
20:47 RealBadAngel also, the code is a bit simplier now
21:04 ShadowNinja  RealBadAngel: Lua uses doubles, which give you more than 50 bits of precision (52?) which is plenty.  Even a 32-bit number should be fine, since most players don't play continuously for a hundred years.
21:05 ShadowNinja  Even with regular realtime it should be plenty big enough.
21:05 RealBadAngel tell that to sapier ;)
21:06 RealBadAngel anyway, either the solution game_time is used for calculations
21:06 ShadowNinja  RealBadAngel: Is the block timestamp gametime or realtime?
21:06 RealBadAngel gametime
21:06 ShadowNinja  Alright, good.
21:19 CraigyDavi   Megaf, Yes. That will remove items every 2 mins. Without causing lag to the server.
21:21 RealBadAngel ShadowNinja, what about default ttl? is 15 minutes ok with you?
21:22 proller      why uou hate items?
21:24 ShadowNinja  RealBadAngel: Yes.
21:25 RealBadAngel proller, i hate items so much that in my worlds i will make ttl = 1s
21:25 proller      make default = -1 and set it to 1 in you worlds
21:26 RealBadAngel if you want to stress your servers youre free to set it to -1, nothing easier
21:28 RealBadAngel we do want optimized things for players that are not even able to find config file
21:28 RealBadAngel since you do know where it is, what problem do you have exactly?
21:29 proller      instead of optimizing item handling you want delete all items.. okay, its true minetest way
21:29 RealBadAngel having things easy come, easy go, doesnt help gameplay
21:30 RealBadAngel it in fact kills the gameplay
21:30 RealBadAngel and minetest suffer from that a lot
21:31 RealBadAngel theres no risk at all, player's death means nothing
21:31 RealBadAngel so its not a sandbox world anymore, its kindergarten
21:33 RealBadAngel and btw, if you do love your items put them into chests, they are made on purpose :P
23:10 diemartin    wouldn't it be cleaner to use table.concat() here? https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/builtin/game/chatcommands.lua#L391
23:14 diemartin    that file needs some cleanup ._.
23:14 diemartin    (mostly style issues though)
23:22 jin_xi       kaeza: look at formspec toolkit. its all string concatenation too
23:24 jin_xi       idk if it matters much tho
23:31 kaeza        https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/builtin/fstk/tabview.lua#L251 this should be in `ui' table (or `core' or whatever)
23:33 kaeza        hmm
