12:16 cerulean256 I'd like to move a node at a constant velocity on the y axis but gravity is making it look glitchy.. how do I adjust gravitational properties on an entity?
12:16 cerulean256 set_physics_override applies to the player object.. but is there an equivalent for regular entities?
12:17 nore set_acceleration ?
12:18 cerulean256 set acceleration to cancel out gravity.. that's what you are suggesting?
12:19 nore no, just set_acceleration({x = 0, y = 0, z = 0})
12:21 cerulean256 so do objects inherit the acceleration based on movement_gravity setting in the conf?
12:22 cerulean256 and if so, does that mean it's -9.81?
12:23 nore I'm not sure...
12:27 cerulean256 nore: your suggestions doesn't work
12:27 nore what do you get?
12:27 cerulean256 the items acceleration is already 0,0,0
12:27 cerulean256 so setting it has no effect
12:28 cerulean256 the item just bounces ever so slightly with a 0,1,0 velocity table
12:29 nore strange...
12:30 nore are you sure the entity isn't stuck somewhere?
12:30 cerulean256 yes.. it's in an open field
12:30 cerulean256 all flat
12:30 cerulean256 in the node of a node
12:30 cerulean256 in the middle of a node*
12:31 cerulean256 node air to be precise :)
12:32 nore wait, is it a builtin item ?
12:36 cerulean256 in this case... yes
12:37 nore builtin items change their acceleration on each server step
12:37 nore that's why you have those glitches
12:39 cerulean256 cha ching!
12:39 cerulean256 mushed together and override. :p
12:40 cerulean256 forgot about the on_step func of the builtin item
12:41 cerulean256 now I can progress... thank you, nore
12:41 nore you're welcome... what mod are you doing?
12:41 cerulean256 I'm doing a bunch.. mostly looking at bringing animated stuff to minetest
12:42 cerulean256 chests that open... doors the swing
12:42 cerulean256 etc, etc, etc.
12:42 cerulean256 elevators that look cool :p
12:43 PilzAdam joined #minetest-mods
12:43 nore ok, good idea... (I however fear the lag wouldn't make it very usable)
12:44 kaeza joined #minetest-mods
12:44 cerulean256 the animations need to be carried out client side... only coordinates matter
12:44 cerulean256 start/stop positions
12:45 cerulean256 I still have many more tests to do before I make a final decision on this aspect.

13:04 cerulean256 anyone know when always_collect is used on builtin items?
13:06 asie joined #minetest-mods
13:06 cerulean256 looks unused to me.. since it's uninitialized in the item_entity.lua file
