Time Nick Message 13:03 rubenwardy https://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/free-and-open-source-voxel-game-engine-minetest-has-a-new-release-up.16388 13:11 nerzhul i'm late but we just released 5.2.0 ? 13:12 nerzhul i saw that we now have a split between old client and the new client 13:12 rubenwardy do we? 13:12 nerzhul seems that master is on 5.3 branch i think so :D 13:13 rubenwardy 5.3.0-dev? 13:13 nerzhul great job for the content database :) 13:13 nerzhul yep 13:13 rubenwardy that's correct, master is the development version 13:13 nerzhul don't you forget me ruben ? :) 13:14 nerzhul nice changelog 13:14 rubenwardy I don't understnad what problem you're trying to point out 13:14 nerzhul just a question, i saw that we have nice doc on minetest.github.io 13:14 rubenwardy but it's nice to see you arround again 13:14 nerzhul is dev.minetest.net maintained or is this just like 1 year ago before my afk 13:15 nerzhul is dev.minetest.net un maintained or is this just like 1 year ago before my afk 13:15 rubenwardy the wiki is still unmaintained, yes 13:17 nerzhul the new official source is minetest.github.io then ? 13:17 rubenwardy they're different 13:17 rubenwardy minetest.gitlab.io is lua_api.txt but rendered into HTML 13:17 rubenwardy the dev wiki was never official 13:17 nerzhul maybe we should try to do something around it ? 13:18 nerzhul it's a little bit slow these days , and it seems we may have duplicated data 13:18 nerzhul and what about https://wiki.minetest.net/Main_Page ? is this maintained or in the same state ? this one may be replaced by the minetest.gitlab.io no ? 13:18 rubenwardy the wiki mainpage is for players, not for modders 13:19 nerzhul okay fine 13:19 rubenwardy the modding information on the dev should probably go 13:19 nerzhul okay, i know i just returned but wanted to be sure i'm up to date :D 13:20 nerzhul i will try to take time on the optimisation part i think, like before, because i will try to re-open a server but on my rock64 kubernetes cluster, then it will be slower than my prvious dedicated one :D 13:21 rubenwardy yay 13:22 nerzhul what about the current minetest performance ? when i left on 5.0.0 it was quite fine (if we discard the heavy mods themselves), are there any performance changes since then or the architecture is similar ? I saw we never continued the project to reorgarnized the source tree 13:23 rubenwardy there have been a few optimisation projects. For example, caching abm nodes and some networking optimisations 13:23 rubenwardy but I'm not sure 13:26 nerzhul okay 13:27 rubenwardy I haven't had much time for Minetest in the last few months, but I will no 13:27 rubenwardy alongside learning kubernetes 13:28 nerzhul haha, i'm working for Veepee now and i manage the Kubernetes from scratch infrasture i designed with few other SRE and our Platform team :) 13:48 kilbith celeron55, will the forum VPS be fixed eventually? 13:50 celeron55 yeah, the main problem with it is that this breakage coincided with a very slow process of migrating it elsewhere 13:50 celeron55 so it's now caught into the very slow process 13:50 nerzhul yeah the wiki are slowed down too :( 13:52 celeron55 well let's do a quick test 13:53 celeron55 i'll shut down the forum and we'll see if everything else works fine then 13:53 celeron55 done 13:55 celeron55 i think the wikis work normally with the forum shut down 13:58 celeron55 now it's "up" again 13:59 kilbith still unresponsive 14:00 celeron55 well obviously; restarting it or the entire VPS does nothing 14:00 celeron55 there are no easy solutions to this 14:00 celeron55 aside from moving it to a more powerful server 14:02 celeron55 i'm very particular in how it's run security wise so that's not easy either 14:02 kilbith well I guess this is a collateral victim of corona 14:03 celeron55 i don't really know... my statistics show no obvious increase in traffic 14:03 celeron55 who knows, maybe someone started mining bitcoins using injected php code 14:03 celeron55 8) 14:04 celeron55 not likely though 14:04 celeron55 i think the VPS provider is just bullshitting me in saying they have no performance issues 14:04 celeron55 this looks exactly as if their performance just degraded a lot 14:05 celeron55 i don't have a way to compare because i have no reference measurements 14:05 kilbith http://irc.minetest.net/minetest/2020-04-10#i_5665001 14:05 celeron55 that's for www.minetest.net 14:06 celeron55 nowadays it's a cname to github pages 14:06 celeron55 so, not a cause 14:08 celeron55 the current problem occurred very briefly on 2020-03-24 and then started again permanently on 2020-04-03 18:39 rubenwardy Made an RTS mod: https://youtu.be/jB_sFZGRUgw // https://content.minetest.net/packages/rubenwardy/conquer/ // vps.rubenwardy.com 30001 18:42 nerzhul rubenwardy: lol nice one 18:43 rubenwardy (it's for the combat mod jam ran by the discord) 18:49 nerzhul it's a very nice thing :D 19:01 Sokomine rubenwardy: cute little archers! but i wish they'd be allowed to live a more happy life - not having to slaughter each other! 19:01 rubenwardy :D 19:01 * Sokomine secretly builds some tiny homes for rubenwardys soldiers where they can hide and live 19:02 Sokomine very nice idea to make them smaller than players 19:02 rubenwardy the maths to aim the archers is painful, given the parabolic curve. After a few pages of derivations, I eventually found a random wikipedia page
