05:14 zlib_is_awesome is there any threading support in lua modding api?
05:42 paramat         no it's all single thread
08:50 nerzhul         no it's singlethread and it will never be multithread
08:53 Krock           Well, it could be multithreaded, but each Lua instance would not know about the other (see SSM & CSM in singleplayer), so it's clearly not what you'd like to have
09:02 nerzhul         Krock, yeah, it's exactly what i mean heh ;D
09:02 Krock           ofc ;D
09:16 nerzhul         merging #7572

09:26 zlib_is_awesome Is there a way to set block texture using not path but texture data itself? For program-generated texture data saved in RAM

10:04 nerzhul         hmm i experience a strange issue
10:04 nerzhul         i'm migrating my particle overlay definition to a lua table
10:04 nerzhul         oh... just found it
10:05 nerzhul         i did a lua_pop(L, -1) instead of lua_pop(L, 1) on the previous argument :)
10:10 Krock           hah yes, that makes a difference
10:10 nerzhul         :p
10:10 nerzhul         then, my PR on particle overlay is now using table defintion (#7519), and i renamed directional speed to velocity

11:10 nerzhul         Krock, paramat, please re-review #7519

11:11 nerzhul         i think we can merge it in its current state. If we need more and more parameters later we can add it later
11:11 nerzhul         in the current state it solves many usecases and permits to implement weather without problem
11:15 nerzhul         Krock, do we have define a timeframe for the 5.0.0 release ?
11:15 nerzhul         did we defined*
11:18 Krock           not yet. https://github.com/orgs/minetest/teams/engine/discussions/13
11:18 Krock           neither is 0.4.18 discussed
11:19 nerzhul         if i remember there is no 0.4.18 if 5.0.0 is not too late
11:20 nerzhul         5.0.0 is a very nice release, especially in terms of performance, and has (too) many new cool features
12:16 nerzhul         Krock, ty for the review i will update it today :) are there the noly problem ?
12:17 Krock           I'm not sure about the pointer placement for functions
12:17 Krock           type *namespace::function   or  type* namespace::function
12:18 Krock           I guess it should be the 1st if we adapt the pointer rules to functions too
13:16 p_gimeno        the problem with type* var instead of type *var is that it's confusing when more than one variable is declared, say in cases like int* a, *b;
13:19 p_gimeno        but for return values of functions, not so much
13:31 Fixer           more server stalls? https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=16699&view=unread#p325905
13:37 sfan5           if you want server stalling fixed (assuming it's an engine issue), provide either profiler output or backtraced produced while the server is stalled
14:37 Krock           HAHahah. really. LINT did it. https://travis-ci.org/minetest/minetest/jobs/406828944#L532
14:37 Krock           oh deer I love that correction in a sarcastic way
14:41 sfan5           when do we remove the linter for being too annoying?
15:02 Krock           probably never if there's not a better replacement. code style checks are helpful
15:07 nerzhul         i think the clang-format on comment should not be indented
19:24 Fixer           was that server stall issue opened?
19:38 Krock           I don't think so. At least I haven't seen any helpful information from the server owners to track this issue down to its cause
19:40 Krock           Will merge #7353 in 10 mins
