00:39 erlehmann who of you implemented the mobs made out of explodium?
00:39 sfan5 w-what
00:39 erlehmann and how do they manage to always sneak up on me?
00:40 erlehmann sometimes out of nothing something explodes beside me
00:40 erlehmann blowing up a huge chunk of the map
00:40 erlehmann i am using the mineclone2 mod pack
00:41 nephele a wild megumin
00:42 erlehmann i'll try to debug the Hauptmen� issue for a few minutes
00:42 erlehmann or was it already fixed?

00:45 erlehmann i timeouted
00:45 erlehmann btw, is boats sinking a bug?
00:45 erlehmann i had a boat that became a submarine more and more
00:45 erlehmann and it kinda trapped me under water
00:46 erlehmann i believe it happened when i drove slightly into a waterfall or something
00:46 erlehmann maybe it also is because skeletons shot at it?
00:46 erlehmann i mean, it makes sense that the boat is sinking, but is it indented?
00:46 erlehmann intended
00:47 nephele guess that depends on what the mineclone2 dev intended
00:47 erlehmann i'll look at the source before i declare it a bug then
00:50 erlehmann ok apparently boat has on_water and in_water
00:50 erlehmann > -- Inside water: Slowly sink
00:50 erlehmann get it
00:50 erlehmann but why can't i get out?
00:51 erlehmann maybe i can not focus the boat in that state?
00:51 erlehmann underwater, i mean
00:51 erlehmann oh, i play in third person
00:51 erlehmann i forgot that
00:52 erlehmann is there a key that makes it possible to exit the boat?
00:52 erlehmann i mean, if it would not drown my character i would be glad to let it go
01:06 paramat boats have a weird bug where, if you alter the collisionbox in a certain way (which mcl2 may have done), they can have crazy vertical behaviour
01:07 paramat when a MTGame boat is underwater it should have a large upwards acceleration
01:09 paramat your issues are posted but no-one has attended. i cannot understand any of it =) https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/9149
01:10 paramat anyway, we do not know what the intended mcl2 boat behaviour is, ask the author
01:18 p_gimeno erlehmann: mineclone2 is not made by the Minetest core developers, it's a third party game and it's a clone of "the other mining program" which has these exploding creatures
01:20 p_gimeno therefore that's off-topic for this channel, except if it's a bug in the engine and not in the game itself
01:22 p_gimeno (I liked when we called it 'subgame', it's less ambiguous)
01:25 nephele you can always borrow the term "gamemode" from garrys mod if subgame is not okay for some reason
01:27 erlehmann ok i found it
01:27 erlehmann p_gimeno, the issue is actually with minetest
01:27 erlehmann so the problem is that i did not understand that under water you move differently
01:27 erlehmann pressing jump will not always make you go up
01:27 erlehmann it makes you go „up“ relative to the direction you are looking at
01:28 erlehmann so if i am looking downwards at the boat to untangle myself from it (right click)
01:28 erlehmann and then i try to get out of the water
01:28 erlehmann i am not moving upwards
01:28 p_gimeno ugh
01:28 erlehmann especially in a panic situation (boat sinking) this does not strike me as useful
01:29 nephele I wonder if that is related to the pitch move mode thing
01:29 p_gimeno I think that's controlled with a setting, can't remember the name
01:29 erlehmann what is the pitch move mode thing?
01:29 p_gimeno ah yes, pitch move, that's it
01:29 erlehmann p_gimeno, oh, interesting.
01:29 erlehmann so i can disable it?
01:29 erlehmann drowned like 6 times or so
01:29 nephele some key disabled it, yeah :)
01:29 erlehmann very frustrating
01:30 p_gimeno yes, look at the controls with ESC, maybe it's listed there
01:30 erlehmann yeah, pitch move on off
01:30 erlehmann so i must have pressed p at some point
01:30 erlehmann and pitch move means that you move „up“ relative to view direction?
01:30 p_gimeno it might be on by default, not sure
01:31 nephele pitch mode is relative yeah
01:31 erlehmann thank you both
01:31 nephele also allows you to trigger the anticheat for moving too fast rather easily when flying
01:31 p_gimeno yes, you move towards where you're looking, and 'up' is where your head is pointing
01:31 erlehmann if that is the default, i think it should be changed. let me investigate.
01:32 erlehmann regarding boats, i already found the comment in the source that you should under no circumstances modify some aspects of the box or else it will clip through the world when underwater
01:33 erlehmann i do not understand why though

05:42 erlehmann sfan5, is there a minetestmapper colors.txt for mineclone2?
05:48 erlehmann joined #minetest-dev
07:19 erlehmann sfan5, here is my first attempt at an incomplete colors.txt for mineclone2 fore minetestmapper http://mister-muffin.de/p/yYXd.txt
07:20 erlehmann celeron55_, could you apply the patch in here with git am maybe? https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/9149
07:20 erlehmann it should apply cleanly

17:57 erlehmann sfan5, that's nice! i hope i can figure it out.
17:58 erlehmann sfan5, why is this all in one file?
17:58 erlehmann sfan5, also when i autogenerated the things, can you add it to colors.txt for minetestmapper so it just works with mineclone2?
17:59 erlehmann i could send you a patch file
17:59 erlehmann after figuring out how it works
18:11 ensonic joined #minetest-dev
18:19 Krock it works with any nodes that you loaded in-game
18:19 Krock it does not depend on minetest_game if you meant that
18:21 Krock basically you enable that mod in your world. it will generate a node name to texture name mapping inside the world's directory
18:22 Krock afterwards use "avgcolor.py" to read the textures and calculate the average colors
18:23 Krock "==SCRIPT==" does the latter part automatically. It'll create a ready-to-use colors.txt file for you
18:28 erlehmann i understand
18:28 erlehmann but why is it in one file and not separate onces
18:28 erlehmann ones
18:31 Krock the node name -> texture name mapping is in a separate file (nodes.txt vs colors.txt)
18:32 Krock #9150 is somewhat ready for testing
18:32 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/9150 -- Attachments: Fix interpolation from (0,0,0) after detach by SmallJoker
18:32 Krock s/testing/reviewing :)

21:55 paramat !tell erlehmann it is likely pitch move will be changed so that up/down are not relative to view direction. issue is https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/7946
21:55 ShadowBot paramat: O.K.
21:56 erlehmann paramat, what
21:56 erlehmann i am there
21:56 erlehmann paramat, btw, could you just apply my patch with git am on a new branch and make a PR? i guess that is easier than opening a ticket.
21:56 erlehmann also thanks for relaying that
21:57 erlehmann paramat, so what does pitch move actually *do*?
21:57 erlehmann besides drowning my character, i mean
21:58 matheus_ joined #minetest-dev
21:58 erlehmann paramat, what remains of pitch move if ascend/descent is fixed?
22:12 qepeeqe joined #minetest-dev
22:14 sofar !tell Krock that logo looks great, sure
22:14 ShadowBot sofar: O.K.
22:19 qepeeqe joined #minetest-dev
22:34 paramat i have not made a PR from your patch yet because we are not yet sure it is needed, it very probably is, but no core dev has commented on the issue, and i do not understand any of it. i only want to do the work of making a PR if it is certainly needed. so am waiting =) sorry
22:36 paramat maybe you should rejoin github? =)
22:37 paramat pitch fly, later applied to swimming #7817

22:47 paramat we are very short on core dev time, so if you are ever interested, maybe we could make you a core dev again ...
22:49 paramat commits have to reviewed and approved by 2 core devs, or by 1 if trivial, so your patch needs some review and approval first. note that c55 does not work on MT currently
22:54 erlehmann i see
22:54 erlehmann well, if it is blocking things, i can try. but i have to sort out some other stuff.
