15:40 rubenwardy If it's ready then 🚀
15:40 sfan5      neutral is a valid opinion too, let's not wait more than necessary
15:44 rubenwardy irr/.github should probably be deleted as it's unused. I'm also surprised it's at irr/ and not lib/irr or src/irr
16:46 allan      Bonjour, est-ce que quelqu'un parle bien le français ?
16:47 rubenwardy pas moi, desole
16:49 allan      english ?
16:49 rubenwardy yeah. and engine dev (this channel) is done in English
16:52 nrz_       i'm french allan
16:52 nrz_       but it's dev channel and anyone should read you
16:53 ROllerozxa there is #minetest-fr here on IRC but I don't think it's particularly active (if there's even anyone there)
16:55 allan      I'm going to put my texts through deepl, I hope you'll get them right because the minetest-fr channel doesn't respond.
16:55 allan      This is the first time I've used IRC

17:23 allan      I'd like to draw your attention to a minetest feature under ubuntu: the controller.
17:24 allan      When I plug in a controller, for example a Logitech Dual Action, my controller is well detected,
17:24 rubenwardy There is no key to unlock this message. We requested the key automatically, but you can try requestingi t again if you are impatient
17:24 allan      it responds well to the jstest test "with the right keys" and when I'm in the game, I get a response from the controller but the controls screw up.
17:24 rubenwardy allan: Minetest doesn't support gamepads/controllers currently, the implementation is broken
17:24 rubenwardy see https://wiki.minetest.net/Gamepads
17:25 rubenwardy (which is why the gamepad section is in advanced and not controls)
17:25 rubenwardy this is something I'm hoping to fix for 5.9
17:26 rubenwardy What you can do is use an external program like Steam Input or antimicrox to handle the controller input
17:36 allan      I wanted to write a novel but I had to cut it short and I use deepl to translate it.
17:39 allan      The game is top-notch, and I'd like to hammer it home here. The game is super good
17:42 allan      I don't know how to program, but I've got an idea for a button-setting interface like in epsxe, the ps1 emulator.
17:59 Mantar     allan: draw a sketch of how you'd like it to look, and post it as an issue on github
18:04 allan      Mantar: I'm going to post it, but how do I post it on the github?
18:23 Mantar     register an account, go to "issues" and push the "new issue" button.
18:23 Mantar     "feature request" is probably the closest match
18:37 allan      I'm doing the drawing now and I'll post it later.
18:52 rubenwardy there's no point making issues for gamepad rebinding when we don't have gamepad support and we still need to redesign the change keys menu
19:05 sfan5      will merge #14483 in 1-2 hours

19:34 grorp      I'm working on Android+SDL2 based on that PR btw
19:35 sfan5      👍
19:40 rubenwardy I don't see why mod_translation_update.py should be in the minetest/minetest repo, makes no sense. I would have prefered a `minetest/modtools` repo and also multiple python files and unit tests rather than stuffing it all into one file
19:57 MTDiscord  <luatic> rubenwardy: agreed on all points
20:17 [MTMatrix] <Zughy> same
20:18 rubenwardy issue is #14495
20:18 ShadowBot  https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/14495 -- Move mod_translater_updater.py to another repo (minetest/modtools)
20:19 grorp      IrrlichtMt doesn't support SDL + ogles1 (why btw? I think Multicraft Irrlicht does), so switching Android to SDL means dropping ogles1 support. is that acceptable?
20:20 grorp      since we wanted to get rid of the fixed pipeline anyway, I guess it is no problem?
20:25 rubenwardy I wonder if people would be interested in ContentDB's minetestcheck as a standalone cli. It lints games/mods/texture packs for breaking issues
20:26 sfan5      grorp: afaik no reason except nobody hooked it up to the sdl code
20:26 sfan5      we want to get rid of ogles1 anyway
