00:01 us{0gb joined #minetest
00:05 dumdidum joined #minetest
00:06 Peacock i wish the game had a soft restart lol after 2 hours im already sick of modding :P
00:06 dumdidum hello, i just compiled the minetest stable-0.4 branch. when executing minetest i get the message:Could not load font because the file does not exist:
00:07 dumdidum 01:00:39: ERROR[main]: WARNING: Font file was not found. Using default font.
00:07 dumdidum what to do?
00:07 VanessaE don't run -stable :P
00:08 kaeza ^
00:08 us{0gb Stable works great. I don't know what these two are talking about.
00:09 us{0gb I don't know why you'd get a font error though.
00:09 us{0gb What system?
00:09 VanessaE us{0gb: stable doesn't work with anything newer than a few weeks ago git, though the opposite may be true
00:09 dumdidum linux
00:09 us{0gb Peacock: What do you mean?
00:09 Megaf folks, lets play on my Raspberry Pi Minimal server. =) https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=7603
00:09 Megaf with 256 MB of ram only
00:09 Peacock ogb, well when i do php shit for clients, all i have to do is hit refresh
00:09 VanessaE us{0gb: a command to re-initialize the Lua environment
00:10 dumdidum the dev version works ...
00:10 VanessaE e.g. a way to restart the "server" process without a full exit+restart of the front-end
00:10 Peacock but for modding, to test any bit of code or new setting, i have to shutdown, restart the server constantly
00:10 dumdidum but the unstable technic mod is, well, very unstable ...
00:10 us{0gb I have more trouble with the dev versions than I ever do with stable.
00:10 Menche it was worse when the memory used by textures wasn't freed
00:10 us{0gb Mixing stable with unstable isn't going to work though.
00:11 ShadowBot joined #minetest
00:11 VanessaE well either way stable is badly outdated now
00:11 VanessaE what was it, 5 months ago?
00:11 Peacock yeah but people will keep using stable because it implies stability :P we just need 0.4.7 to be finalized
00:12 Peacock *0.4.8
00:12 us{0gb Latest stable, by definition, is not outdated. You're just using a future version.
00:12 kaeza lol
00:12 kaeza stable is no more stable than dev
00:12 VanessaE us{0gb: give it up, you lost this one :)
00:12 kaeza in fact, it may be possible that dev is way more stable than stable
00:12 VanessaE -stable can't use sokomine's windmills or >4k nodes!
00:12 VanessaE :)
00:12 Peacock shit keeps changing in dev, i wouldn't base a server on it necessarily
00:13 VanessaE Peacock: not really
00:13 VanessaE -dev is actually quite stable in that regard
00:13 Peacock well i dont need 4K nodes, i still need this thing to work on the p4
00:13 Peacock otherwise we might as well drop the "works on old hardware" moniker
00:13 VanessaE shit keeps *improving* in -dev, but rare is the time that something changes enough to actually break stuff
00:13 us{0gb Stable may be less stable. I'm not arguing that. I'm only saying that, by definition, latest stable is the CURRENT version. THe current version is not out dated.
00:14 VanessaE us{0gb: it's not considered 'current' anymore, even by the dev team
00:14 Peacock well then they should get to it and FF 0.4.8
00:14 Peacock the problem isn't people using stable, is stable itself being old, that's not the user's fault
00:15 pitriss Peacock: on p3 xeon, with reached 4k nodes limit it still is playable by 3 ppl at the same time without any problems (technic & mesecon mods included)
00:15 Menche could they postpone some of 0.4.8's goals to 0.4.9, just to get it out sooner?
00:15 Menche if even the devs think stable's outdated
00:15 Peacock there was indeed an issue about milestones changing :P
00:15 kaeza Menche, AFAIK, 0.4.8 will be out soonâ„¢(for real this time)
00:15 VanessaE actually, if I guess it right, 0.4.8-stable release is imminent
00:15 Menche lol
00:16 us{0gb Semantically, it is the current version as long as they continue to call it the latest version, regardless of what they consider it. I can consider the sky to be a lovely shade of hazel, but that doesn't make it true.
00:16 Menche that's been in the channel title for forever
00:16 VanessaE from the latest flurry of activity, it may be coming out fairly soon
00:16 us{0gb *"as long as they continue to call it the latest [stable] version"
00:16 Vazon joined #minetest
00:16 Peacock yeah i think c55 added core devs just to get the bloody thing finished lol
00:16 VanessaE sorta
00:16 Menche or just wrap up what's there and call it 0.4.7.1 :P
00:16 VanessaE more to the point, because development has slowed down so much lately
00:17 pitriss Menche: lol great idea:D
00:17 VanessaE heh
00:17 Menche chromium style version numbering
00:17 Peacock well, slowed down, or stalled on certain features
00:18 Peacock and my impression is there's lots of disagreements over pulls
00:18 Vazon VanessaE i need a bit of help and i know you for afact run Linux cuase you have helped me before but im on a new computer with a old windows operation (windows xp) and im tring to get Ubuntu on it but im not doing something right could you piont mye in the right direction plz
00:18 us{0gb Hasn't there always been a lot of disagreement over pulls?
00:19 Peacock judging from the logs it's worse lately :P
00:19 VanessaE us{0gb: pretty much
00:19 Miner_48er Vazon what have you done so far?
00:19 VanessaE though it seems to have improved mildly.
00:19 Miner_48er changed your nick back?
00:19 VanessaE Vazon: what help do you need?
00:20 Vazon o hey Miner XD nothing at all its a im just rying to install it thats it yes i have Miner
00:20 Vazon how to install Ubuntu over windows xp VanessaE
00:20 VanessaE I can't help you with that.
00:20 VanessaE I don't have any current windows experience
00:20 us{0gb If I had the time to learn C++ at the moment, I'd probably fork. I bet we could come up with a lot of similar cool games.
00:21 Vazon hm ok
00:21 Miner_48er Vazon which way do you want to install it?
00:21 kaeza Vazon, why not dual-boot?
00:21 VanessaE now if you mean "over" as in "to replace", then that's easy
00:21 pitriss Vazon: put that cd into drive, boot it and click install:D
00:21 Peacock ogb talk to rba about that
00:21 VanessaE just make a backup and tell Ubuntu to "erase" windows.
00:22 Vazon yes VanessaE
00:22 Vazon thats what i ment sorry for not being clear
00:22 us{0gb Peacock: Is RealBadAngel forking?
00:22 Peacock no but last i heard they're not interested in his textured sun and moon, i think it's good
00:22 VanessaE yeah, for that, you just need to boot with the ubuntu disc (or USB), "Install Ubuntu", and when it asks you if yoiu want to install, erase, do something else, etc. just tell it to erase.
00:22 Vazon make a back up? aorry this computer is older tahn im used to so i have no idea how
00:23 VanessaE that's one of the first questions it will ask you, after you select your language
00:23 VanessaE a backup of your personal files, maps, worlds, music, documents, etc.
00:23 Peacock and hell people keep asking me privately to do it and i dont know jack about cpp lol
00:23 Vazon Ubuntu disc? last time i just downloaded it from thewebsite
00:23 VanessaE backups == copy your files to a thumbdrive.
00:23 VanessaE ubuntu needs to be burned to a DVD, CD, or USB thumb drive
00:24 VanessaE to do it right
00:24 Vazon ok
00:24 us{0gb Peacock: I think the textured sun and mood are a great idea, assuming you can turn it off for some games, and use the old version. The default textures he included might be close enough to that.
00:24 Vazon can wemake a private chat VanessaE so we arent doing this on chat
00:24 VanessaE the proper way to it is to get the ISO file of Ubuntu,  burn it to CD or DVD or write it to USB thumbdrive as a "disc image"
00:24 Peacock well like i always say, options are good, more options is better than fewer options
00:24 VanessaE no
00:25 us{0gb Peacock: I agree! But certain developers here do not.
00:25 VanessaE more options is always better!
00:25 dumdidum another question. where can i see the preprocessor variables set by the build of minetest?
00:25 VanessaE (as long as they're easy to find and not confusing or poorly laid otu)
00:25 VanessaE out*)
00:26 Peacock so you make the textured sun/moon thing an API function, and if it's not called or defined, you use the default stuff, nothing is taken away
00:26 us{0gb Right.
00:26 VanessaE actually it's even easier.
00:26 Peacock the only people who don't like more options are those with tunnel-vision lol
00:26 VanessaE you just supply the appropriate images in your favorite texture pack.
00:26 VanessaE that's it.
00:27 VanessaE that's how it works with the current pull request.
00:27 Peacock id still rather an api function, cuz in my mind, it could be expanded to define multiple sattelites, different sizes and speeds
00:27 VanessaE sun.png, moon.png, and if you want to include them, a pair of tint maps.
00:27 VanessaE tone maps*
00:28 Peacock well either way, just having it would be a start, i hate the default sun/moon lol
00:28 VanessaE yes
00:28 Peacock i dont care that it has multiple shades at once, they're still ugly IMO lol
00:28 Peacock id rather use real textures
00:28 VanessaE but c55 doesn't like the current implementation because you can't tint different parts of the sun and moon separately.
00:29 us{0gb A guy on the other line that you probably have never heard of, hexafraction, was framed for something Minetest-related. I'd prefer not to say what. He wants to know if you hate him. Have you people even heard of him, and if so, are you upset with him?
00:29 VanessaE e.g. the sun's corona can't be tinted separately from the photosphere itself.
00:29 Vazon ok VanessaE i have a thumb drive in and ready to install it to thedrive what do i before puting it in the drive
00:29 VanessaE if who hates him
00:29 VanessaE >
00:29 VanessaE ?
00:29 Peacock so im guessing he put alot of time into multiple tints and probably resents that people would still rather use textures?
00:29 VanessaE I don't even know the name/.
00:30 Peacock and who's hexafraction? lol
00:30 us{0gb VanessaE: "Half the people on #minetest."
00:30 Peacock what other names has he used?
00:30 VanessaE Vazon: you need to use an image writer program to write the file to the thumbdrive.  can you boot into linux in any fashion at all right now?
00:30 VanessaE us{0gb: I don't recognize that name at all.
00:30 us{0gb Peacock: The name "hexafraction" is the one that was framed, I'm told.
00:30 Vazon no not on this computer
00:30 Menche think i heard the name in reference to ddos'ing, don't know any other details
00:30 Vazon on my labtop i can
00:31 Peacock DDOS'ing what?
00:31 Menche i think minetest servers or something
00:31 Peacock and DDOS'ing seems to be a weapon of choice for freetards, so i dont know why he'd be hated for that
00:31 Menche don't remember any other details
00:32 us{0gb Peacock: Yeah that was it. Another user stole his user name and DDoSed some people, myself included.
00:32 Peacock but why would the person need a username to DDOS at all?
00:33 VanessaE Vazon: ok, go to the laptop.  boot linux.  download the linux image to there.  use 'dd' to burn it to the USB thumb drive.
00:33 Vazon ok hold on
00:33 us{0gb The user name was used to frame/impersonate him.
00:33 us{0gb THat's all that was needed. Blame.
00:33 pitriss us{0gb: hehe I don't know him, but yes I'm upset with him.. ..just because I'm old grumpy fart:D
00:33 VanessaE haha
00:34 Peacock so if the person is innocent, why does he give a shit? something doesn't make sense here
00:34 Peacock from the way they're acting, i'd say he probably did do it yes, and wants forgiveness
00:35 us{0gb He cares about his reputation maybe? I don't know. He just found out about the indecent today, and it has him in knots.
00:35 Peacock if i was accused of doing some shit I didn't do, i wouldn't be afraid to show my face
00:35 Vazon ok im on linux on my laptop nowwhere do i find this image
00:36 us{0gb If someone comes in here as "0gb-us", it isn't me. Just saying.
00:36 us{0gb *"us-0gb"
00:36 us{0gb Vazon: What image do you need?
00:36 Peacock hell i could write a shitton of bad mods and put someone elses name on it, it wouldn't make it theirs lol
00:37 Vazon this if for installing ubunto
00:37 us{0gb Peacock: I saw someone do that once.
00:37 us{0gb I'll find the image. Hold on.
00:37 Vazon ok
00:38 us{0gb Vazon: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop Choose an image there. I'd recommend 12.04, VanessaE would probably recommend 13.10. It's really up to you.
00:39 Vazon i us 12.04 in my laptop and that is the one i want
00:39 VanessaE I'm running 13.10 now.
00:39 us{0gb VanessaE: I was almost certain that was the case.
00:39 VanessaE (I got pissed and wiped debian from my machine yesterday, with extreme prejudice)
00:39 VanessaE (or day before, whenever it was.  I don't pay attention :P )
00:39 us{0gb VanessaE: I thought there was a chance you were still on 13.04, but I knew you didn't use 12.04.
00:40 Menche what's wrong with debian?
00:40 Megaf off, nobody enthusiastic about the city im building on my raspberry pi... megaf.no-ip.info port 30001
00:40 us{0gb Debian wouldn't let her install something.
00:40 Megaf Debian here
00:41 Megaf works fine
00:41 us{0gb Megaf: If you want, I can stop by for a while, but I have to get back to homework soon.
00:41 pitriss Megaf: same here
00:41 VanessaE Menche: couldn't install google earth, for no love or money
00:41 VanessaE (turns out 13.10 was almost as problematic, but only *almost*)
00:41 us{0gb I liked Debian a lot, aside from the lack of drivers. BUt now I'm on Trisquel, and I'm back to not having the drivers I want.
00:42 Peacock lol
00:42 Peacock try mint or crunchbang
00:42 us{0gb Yeah. It happens.
00:42 Peacock or archbang if you're feeling adventurous
00:42 Megaf us{0gb, Debian 7 and Sid works well on my MacBook Pro and on my girlfriends SAMSUNG laptop, so works well on my grandmas PC
00:42 Menche don't see google earth in the debian repos
00:42 Menche it must not exist
00:42 Peacock arch needs it's own ubuntu-esque deriv
00:42 us{0gb Mint and Crunchbang aren't really my thing. I'll stick with Trisquel for now.
00:43 Megaf and yes, I like you to make a quick visit on my rpis server to tell me how does it feels
00:43 kaeza I don't understand people using something "more free", just to be restricted in other ways
00:43 Peacock i could never use trisquell or debian, i dont like a bunch of dev telling me what software i can and can't have easy access to
00:43 Evergreen Meh, anything with xfce, I don't really care
00:43 Evergreen *anything that works with
00:43 Peacock kaeza + 10
00:44 us{0gb I like Xfce too.
00:44 Peacock though eventually i will have to try slackware
00:44 Menche how does debian tell you what software you can't have?
00:44 Peacock i keep hearing good things about it and it's the only one i havent tried
00:44 us{0gb Menche: It just was incompatible, I think.
00:44 Peacock menche, one example is blender in debian repos not having collada plugin
00:45 Peacock blender from blender website does
00:46 Peacock and when i tried looking up the related issue/bug, it was closed because the collada removal was a political thing
00:46 Vazon joined #minetest
00:46 Vazon ok better
00:47 Peacock the only reason i dont still use archbang is i was sick of updates leading to breakage leading to a wasted evening of reinstalling the OS
00:47 Menche i haven't had that problem with stock Arch; that must be an archbang specific thing
00:47 Peacock and the pacman/aur thing drove me nuts too when packer stopped working
00:47 Menche yaourt!
00:47 Vazon VanessaE can you plz start that that chat back plz i cant ... Window just sticks i hate it now that i have used linux for 2 months
00:48 Peacock yeah except you can't get yaourt through pacman lol
00:48 Menche so?
00:48 Menche just dl the tarball, extract, and makepkg
00:48 VanessaE it only took me about 2 hours to completely wipe, re-install, re-populate, and re-configure my desktop
00:48 Peacock and i dont want to learn to fuck around with PKGBUILDs lol, im living in 2013
00:48 kaeza yaoiurt looks like an interesting name :P
00:48 Menche ...you don't have to learn about PKGBUILDS, lol
00:48 Menche just how to download and extract an archive :P
00:49 Menche well, and run 1 command too :P
00:49 VanessaE (I took a backup of my personal files, and did not have to restore from said backup).  Thank to a script I wrote some time back to automate the process.
00:49 Peacock arch with synaptic and a single type of repos would totally pwn debian
00:49 Menche there's a few graphical pacman frontends
00:49 Peacock tried all of them, they sucked and most of them didn't work as advertised lol
00:49 Menche a gnome packagekit one
00:50 * Menche doesn't like graphical package management
00:50 Peacock im sorry but i grew up with dos and later windows 3.1, i dont like using the terminal if i dont have to
00:51 dumdidum well, i think i have to give it up. i want to play minetest with technic mod but dev minetest needs dev technic mod which is really unstable (some recipes are old, some new -> some things doesn't work). and the stable minetest doesn't start because it can't find a font which is there ...
00:51 us{0gb I'm exited about a new Guix package manager. It's said that it doesn't break anything if interrupted during installation and has a rollback feature.
00:52 Peacock the main problem with package manager is sorting dependencies, if you update one thing before the other, everything fucks up lol
00:52 Peacock *managers
00:52 harrison think of the children! use your library voice mr Peacock
00:52 Peacock library voice? lol
00:53 kaeza dumdidum, what exactly does not work?
00:53 VanessaE children can learn to filter out the occasional swear.  they'll be speaking it soon enough anyway :P
00:53 Peacock and it might be early for me waking up at 6pm, but in europe and on the east coast kids should be in bed :P
00:53 dumdidum kaeza, in the technic mod?
00:53 harrison The execution and how it happened is on tape from security cameras is no doubt as to what happen and whose behind this we already know who pulled the trigger we will sooner than they think we can.
00:53 harrison The kids they die knew the danger and chose to be where their duty told them they had to be. They are the first blood in this war it will not be the last the road we have ahead of us is heavy and will be full of blood.
00:53 kaeza ...yes?
00:54 Peacock harrison, u on druuugs?
00:54 Peacock because crack is bad, mkaay?
00:54 VanessaE wtf are you going on about?
00:54 Peacock (ask Rob Ford)
00:55 pitriss Peacock: +1
00:55 Peacock speaking of Ontario
00:55 Peacock !seen thefamilygrog
00:55 MinetestBot Peacock: Sorry, I haven't seen thefamilygrog around.
00:55 dumdidum kaeza, one moment, i will have a look for the exact names
00:57 general3214 joined #minetest
00:58 general3214 Anyone here?
00:58 Peacock no we all left half an hour ago
00:59 Peacock happy hour at McGuinty's
00:59 Peacock almost last call then :P
00:59 * us{0gb would be here, but isn't
01:00 dumdidum kaeza, lv solar array needs solar panel. there are two kinds of solar panel available. the old one can't be crafted but the new one can. but the new solar panel can't be used to craft a lv solar array.
01:00 us{0gb Scratch that. Better response:
01:00 proller NEW SUPER NO LAG system! right now on "Sky" server! join if you can
01:00 * us{0gb would be here if not for the fact that he's gone at the moment
01:01 Peacock my super no lag system involves gutting half or more of default game lol
01:01 dumdidum kaeza, when crafting a coal lv generator it becomes an unknown object. well this error i fixed localy after a while of searching.
01:01 us{0gb proller: WHat is the sky server? Is it the won where the spawn point is up in the indev floating islands?
01:01 general3214 The Minetest community has quite a lot of sarcasm.
01:02 NekoGloop I just don't care.
01:02 us{0gb general3214: We have to, to make it through the day. Times are hard here.
01:02 kaeza dumdidum, you may want to open an issue on github so it's not forgotten
01:02 proller us{0gb, now on 900+ mountain
01:02 general3214 us{0gb: I knew it!
01:03 Peacock general3214 http://youtu.be/ykku2FDftFg
01:03 us{0gb proller: 900+ mountain? Is it that Mount Moru plugin?
01:04 proller no, noise params
01:04 kaeza dumdidum, in any case, using the dev version helps find new bugs; if only the developers use the dev version, these issues can go unnoticed because the devs are either too busy or too lazy to test them
01:05 proller no need to play, just join
01:05 general3214 Peacock: Since you posted that link, the number of views changed from 1 to 4.
01:05 Peacock yeah i saw the original a few days ago without the subs
01:06 dumdidum kaeza, the generator bug is already fixed as i see :)
01:06 us{0gb Peacock: Awesome video. Thanks for sharing!
01:06 Peacock im a huge fan of john cleese, and think he's right on that score lol
01:09 us{0gb I don't know the guy, but I agree with his viewpoint in that video.
01:09 dumdidum kaeza, sure, you're right. but in the moment i don't have the time for bug hunting. but hey, right now i have just a problem with the solar panel. i got the generator to work. seems that i did something wrong last times ... so, all in all it's not as bad as i thought :D
01:09 Peacock well you can prolly find some fawtly tower episodes on youtube, or clips from monty python
01:11 Peacock ogb: best episode: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfl6Lu3xQW0
01:14 general3214 Has anyone made a world that is for displaying texture packs?
01:19 Megaf <Peacock> im sorry but i grew up with dos and later windows 3.1, i dont like using the terminal if i dont have to
01:19 Megaf I grew up with MSX, then DOS and then Windows 3.11, 95, 98, 2000, ME, XP, 2003
01:20 proller please join to "Sky" server to test new anti lag patch
01:20 Megaf then I noticed that windows is rubbish and knew about Linux
01:20 Megaf So my life began
01:20 Peacock megaf well linux looked pretty damned good when i had windowsMe to contend with
01:20 * kaeza grew up with a ZXSpectrum+
01:21 kaeza good old times :)
01:21 Megaf yup
01:21 Megaf have you ever tried RiscOS?
01:21 Megaf theres a version for Raspberry Pi
01:21 Megaf impressive how well it performs
01:21 Peacock but still, if i hated the terminal in windows and dos, why should i love using it in linux? because im free? lol
01:21 kaeza not yet
01:22 Peacock the only reason i was sold on linux was because of ubuntu double-D
01:22 Peacock the base system didn't have the driver i wanted, the driver wizard found the right one, even if prop.
01:22 pitriss kaeza: hehe I had Commodore 64
01:23 Peacock i prefer a mixed system that focuses on the best performance, not a pure system that focus on one arbitrary ideal of freedom
01:24 kaeza Peacock++
01:24 Peacock for trisquell, the focus is freedom to the power of 4, for arch, it's about focusing on minimalism, but it's just a tad more minimalist than i want
01:24 general3214 Right now I'm converting a Minecraft texture pack called Xenocontendi http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/117219-/
01:25 general3214 And don't worry; I've got all of the copyright stuff covered
01:26 Peacock sucks because an arch base with a modern finish would blow ubuntu out of the water
01:26 Peacock most of the options seem to suck right now
01:28 Vazon_ joined #minetest
01:31 Exio4 Peacock: if you compare DOS shell with any *nix's shell
01:31 Exio4 you are comparing the wrong thing
01:31 Exio4 s
01:31 Peacock i just dont like using text commands lol thats not so hard to comprehend
01:31 Peacock i was a kid last time i had to use them
01:32 Exio4 you can nowdays, use the terminal for connecting to irc, have full-featured file managers, multiplexers, connect to remote servers, code, etc
01:32 Exio4 the terminal is the hell of usefulness
01:32 Peacock that might be an advance for terminals, but most normal users are beyond using terminals
01:32 Exio4 more like an advance, a common thing when using *nix-powered shells
01:32 Peacock we live in an age of multi-monitor setups
01:33 Peacock not at all the same as the days of 14" CRTs
01:33 Exio4 you can have X11 and terminals on each monitor
01:33 Peacock well look, i wont bash you if you prefer using terminals, but i like modern-ish setups, but not as a modern as say gnome3
01:33 Exio4 gnome3 is the bullshit of the moment
01:33 Peacock xfce is gold for me lol
01:34 Peacock gnome3/unity need to die yes
01:34 Exio4 i use X11 with my terms, but i just say.. man, you're comparing the wrong things, the shell you used in DOS isn't like the one that is behind your OS
01:34 Exio4 DOS shell made people cry for a GUI
01:34 Peacock well when we were talking about terminals, it was in relation to pacman/aur/yaourt
01:34 Peacock and given the choice, id rather arch had something like synaptic
01:34 Mossmanikin joined #minetest
01:35 Mossmanikin Hi folks
01:35 Exio4 pacman is good but the pkgbuilds of the packages are shit :(
01:35 Peacock when dealing with something as critical as system updates, i can't be worrying about knowing the right commands
01:35 Exio4 so you will be dealing with a gui?
01:35 Peacock agreed, i fucking hate pkgbuilds lol
01:35 Exio4 pkgbuilds are a nice idea
01:35 Peacock well 2 years of archbang made me long for synpatic lol
01:35 Exio4 they are like lite-ebuilds
01:36 Exio4 but the pkgbuilds used in arch packets are shit
01:36 Peacock apt simply has better dependency resolution than pacman or aur helpers
01:36 Exio4 packages**
01:36 Peacock i haven't broken my #! setup with a system update yet
01:36 Exio4 emerge!
01:36 Exio4 Peacock: that is called "good packages"
01:36 Peacock well tell that to arch supporters :P
01:36 Exio4 arch means not-well-tested packages
01:37 Exio4 only the core system is forced to go to "testing" and if nobody tries them = they get into master
01:37 Peacock yeah they tend to push shit when it's right out the gate, regardless of if it breaks everything or not
01:37 Exio4 tries them and says it doesn't work *
01:38 Peacock well thats why i say, a ubuntu-esque (oldschool ubuntu) version of arch would blow the actual ubuntu out of the water :P
01:38 Exio4 remember some time ago, when you were uber-fan of archlinux and the shit? and you said "nonono it is stable!!"?
01:38 Exio4 john_minetest: how is a pkgbuild related to aur
01:38 Peacock archbang used to be more stable than it is now
01:38 Exio4 fwiw, look at overlays ;)
01:38 Peacock things change with time, not just my opinion :P
01:39 Exio4 Peacock: it is archlinux, everything works for two months, everything explodes for a whole month, and so
01:39 Exio4 +on
01:39 Peacock the glibc fiasco fucked up alot of AB setups
01:39 Exio4 like, most of the big updates in a shitty rolling release
01:40 Exio4 gentoo is a lovely RS :>
01:40 Peacock problem is you got polar opposites as options: debian which takes forever to get new software, and arch that doesn't test jack before pushing it
01:40 Exio4 gentoo
01:41 NakedFury or windows
01:41 Peacock i hear too many bad things about gentoo, but i hear alot of good things about slackware
01:41 Exio4 windows? i don't want to use a window for chatting NakedFury
01:41 Exio4 Peacock: what bad things?
01:41 Exio4 mostly from people saying "meh, compiling", no?
01:42 Peacock just people complaining, the last time i looked it up was when i switched to #!, so i can't cite examples from memory
01:42 Exio4 gentoo is the evil of the distros
01:42 dumdidum gentoo works fine here :)
01:43 Exio4 i miss a gentoo setup here :(
01:43 Peacock im not terribly familiar with portage either
01:43 Exio4 but network problems, barely can have a debian sid
01:43 Exio4 Peacock: neither i am
01:43 Peacock having learned synaptic and pacman and all
01:43 Exio4 that is why manpages exist
01:43 Exio4 s
01:43 Peacock does gentoo have wicd, chromium, gedit, and no bloody pulse audio?
01:43 Exio4 Peacock: it has more than that?
01:44 Exio4 it is a real distro
01:44 Peacock one thing i like about AB over CB is AB doesn't bother with pulseaudio lol
01:44 Exio4 you install in gentoo whatever you want
01:44 Peacock well they're all real distros in a sense, 90% are based on another one
01:44 Exio4 john_minetest: do you know what i mean
01:44 Exio4 pkgbuilds itself are nice
01:44 Exio4 aur is other shit
01:44 Exio4 totally unrelated
01:45 Exio4 it is like comparing .exes with .zip
01:45 Peacock the biggest problem with arch is seperation between pacman and aur
01:45 Exio4 uh?
01:45 Exio4 yeah
01:45 Exio4 a database of user-made pkgbuilds that nobody tried
01:45 Peacock well to the average user, AUR is where you get the other half of your favorite software
01:46 Exio4 tl;dr you are getting it from unknown software
01:46 Exio4 and for having a working arch-based system
01:46 Exio4 you need to get a shit load of stuff from aur
01:46 Exio4 that is unstable, from -git or so
01:46 Peacock well i dont control pacman or its; repos lol all i know is i can get all the same shit from synaptic
01:46 Exio4 john_minetest: do you read all of them, and check by hand if they don't have something wrong?
01:48 Peacock i still prefer the simplicity and unity of synaptic, since you can add repos from there
01:48 Peacock synaptic is a frontend for APT i think
01:49 Exio4 john_minetest: nearly every
01:49 Exio4 and you can't rely on them, if they have an unknown download, do you install it anyway?
01:49 Exio4 Peacock: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funtoo
01:49 Peacock if pacman repos had all the shit i could find in AUR, and pacman had a frontend, it would be no contest, i'd go with arch
01:50 Peacock what is difference between funtoo and gentoo?
01:51 Exio4 Peacock: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funtoo#Features
01:51 Peacock jesus a flowchart of linux distros would be helpful lol

15:24 iqualfragile finaly the abms are in lua
15:25 nore yep...
15:25 nore so you can change it in different games
15:26 iqualfragile i one wanted to slow the growth of trees down
15:26 iqualfragile because they grow waay to fast
15:26 iqualfragile but it was not possible
15:26 nore you can...
15:26 nore (but they are in default game, so you will probably need to make a game)

15:42 Exio4 make them mod-able :P
15:42 Exio4 call a function that calls the real func, and make the real func global
15:42 Exio4 you could change it by default.grow_tree or whatever, like the abm for lava cooling

16:32 t3o or shall I put in in ~/.minetest/ ..?
16:32 reactor Keyboard provides tactile feedback, you know when the key is activated

17:02 OldCoder That is presently happening with Zegaton
17:02 VanessaE doors and wool are part of minetest_game now.
17:03 OldCoder But I have upgraded. I will look closer.
17:03 reactor joined #minetest
17:03 OldCoder https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/zipball/master
17:04 OldCoder VanessaE, That is the *game I should use, correct?
17:04 VanessaE wool is the 12 or 15-color version (I forget which), so there will probably be some unknown blocks.  I never got a chance to write that updated version.
17:04 reactor why not tarball?
17:04 VanessaE yes, that's the one.  but why a zipball?  you should be using git to manage it.
17:04 OldCoder Presently I am focused on eliminating crashes
17:04 OldCoder And git is fine
17:04 VanessaE git clone git@github.com:minetest/minetest_game.git
17:04 OldCoder Should be same as ZIP?
17:04 VanessaE it's the same repo, yeah
17:05 VanessaE just saving you a little time :)
17:05 OldCoder So no difference
17:05 OldCoder I will review
17:05 OldCoder Focused on this today
17:05 VanessaE don't use the old "common" mods anymore, byw
17:05 VanessaE btw*
17:05 PilzAdam VanessaE, actually downloading a zip should be faster than cloning a whole repo
17:05 VanessaE PilzAdam: faster yes, but is it not also a bit more cumbersome to keep updated after that?
17:06 OldCoder VanessaE, One step at a time. Saving the old worlds is quite messy.
17:06 kaeza git is better in the long term
17:06 OldCoder Right now kaeza I just want it to run :-)
17:06 Exio4 git is easier
17:06 kaeza k
17:07 OldCoder kaeza, Did ShadowNinja fork your IRC mod?
17:07 Exio4 the zipball is download, uncompress, remove old file, and then repeat after any upgrade
17:07 Exio4 with git it is a clone for downloading and then just git pull
17:07 kaeza OldCoder, nope, same repo
17:07 OldCoder Hmm

17:42 reactor thexyz: I've never had any problem with sarcasm, I just think it's fun to return it.
17:42 thexyz I see
17:42 reactor OldCoder: 20 worlds is the max number?
17:43 us}0gb I just noticed that while sapling growth was moved to Lua, junglesapling growth was not.
17:44 ShadowNinja nore: ^
17:44 nore us}0gb, it was too
17:44 nore except that there is no junglesapling in minimal
17:45 OldCoder reactor, No... But I may cut back to 10 if the worlds can be merged
17:45 OldCoder Better large worlds that people visit than small ones that sit there
17:45 OldCoder This is for fun
17:45 reactor mk
17:45 reactor Well, 20 wouldn't be too many for large production systems.
17:45 us}0gb nore: I just git pulled, and junglesapling growth seems to be in content_abm.cpp.
17:46 nore where?
17:46 reactor Would probably reduce maintenance/storage costs.
17:46 reactor Maybe processing, too.
17:47 nore us}0gb, it is not in it

17:48 us}0gb Git is messing up then. I just pulled a few minutes ago.
17:48 us}0gb I'll try pulling again.
17:48 nore and how could there be junglesaplings but no saplings...?
17:48 nore it was only 1 function
17:49 us}0gb The function on my machine makes no references to "sapling", but does have an ABM for "junglesapling".

17:50 nore the function runs for both sapling and junglesapling
17:50 nore and detects then if junglesapling
17:50 nore but anyway, it has been removed
17:50 us}0gb Git messed up. I don't know what happened.
17:50 us}0gb Sorry for the false alarm.
17:51 nore np
17:53 us}0gb I wonder if pulling got messed up because I edited one of the builtin Lua files or something. It might have made commits incompatible or something, then git left them out.

18:37 reactor Shit. Why do they put "LF" so close to "/"?
18:38 bas080 reactor,  yes  it is. It's not like nyan world which is based on the engine but not on the gameplay
18:38 reactor hmm
18:40 thexyz bas080: I can host a server if you want
18:41 bas080 thexyz, yes plz, I'm up for finding those inconsistencies
18:43 thexyz okay
18:43 reactor What kind of inconsistencies, exactly?
18:43 bas080 It is different in gameplay as it requires power sources to create light and torches burn out.
18:44 bas080 graphical and bugs
18:45 reactor Where do you find room for all the wiring?
18:45 reactor Also, torches burning out would be a problem for pre-made maps.
18:46 bas080 Yes, but you get about an hour to replace the torches with "electrical" ones before they burn out.
18:47 bas080 Also they only burnout when within a defined range
18:47 PilzAdam so you have torches that detect if you are arround and turn themselves off if you walk away?
18:47 bas080 There are solar panels and coal plants
18:47 bas080 PilzAdam, no it uses the node timer
18:47 bas080 Node timer only works in certain range
18:47 thexyz bas080: it's up now
18:48 reactor FYI, solar panels that do real power are huge.
18:48 reactor And need to be installed in the desert.
18:48 thexyz ocd.minetest.net:33333
18:49 bas080 They are a bit buggy as they work when they are in light. Even if the light source is lava
18:50 PilzAdam IRL solar panels work with all light sources
18:51 NekoGloop They just work best with solar light, preferrably in a desert.
18:51 reactor Yes.
18:52 reactor You probably won't be able to make it produce enough power to power lots of lights in normal climate.
18:55 thexyz bas080: shall I give you all privs?
18:55 thexyz I don't think I'll be playing it actively
18:55 Inocudom joined #minetest
18:56 thexyz but I'll try to keep it up
18:56 general3214 How do I make a semi-transparent texture?
18:57 anunakki hi OldCoder
18:57 reactor that's probably not supported, general3214
18:57 anunakki sorry didnt see it earlier
18:57 general3214 oh okay
18:58 OldCoder o/
18:59 general3214 reactor, I just tried using semi-transparent textures for destroying blocks and it worked
18:59 reactor Woah.
18:59 reactor I didn't know.
18:59 reactor Good.

19:23 Inocudom You here OldCoder?
19:25 Inocudom I am waiting for either Fess, sfan5, or BlockMen to make a new build of proller's branch.
19:25 sfan5 I'm busy ATM
19:26 proller wait, im building new
19:28 Inocudom You are making a build yourself, proller. You would probably be skilled at that.
19:28 proller i can make package for freebsd 8)
19:33 Inocudom Recently, Minetest gained protection support. That, along with locked chests, make Minetest's servers safer than those of Minecraft (which still doesn't even have locked chests.)

19:38 proller but we have lot of unmovable locked chest on maps
19:38 us}0gb Hello!
19:39 markveidemanis What was that website that had text you could type on? i remember it had links, teleports,and was made in python
19:39 markveidemanis text{world} ?
19:39 reactor Nighty.
19:39 us}0gb No idea, markveidemanis.

19:40 markveidemanis yea, thanks
19:40 markveidemanis Now i have a faster pc...
19:40 thexyz bas080: okay, done
19:41 bas080 thexyz, ty
19:41 proller Inocudom, next ready
19:44 markveidemanis http://www.yourworldoftext.com/~markveidemanis/ ANyone know the song?
19:44 Inocudom I see. You updated the repository of your next branch. Very exciting.
19:47 VanessaE joined #minetest
19:47 Inocudom I wish Minetest had some sort of auto-update function in it (updates a build to current git.) There could be times when it could be a better option.
19:49 Inocudom The features of the next branch are exciting, like the no server lag one and the slippery function one.
19:50 Inocudom I don't know if Fess quite understands how to make builds of the next branch yet. Might have to explain it to him more.
19:51 Inocudom I used the last one he made of it, but in it the content_ignore error appeared frequently.
19:52 thexyz how could it update itself?
19:54 Inocudom Sort of in the manner that Xonotic can via an rsync tool? Of course, that process would have to be understood. Maybe somebody in the Xonotic forums knows. Calinou does appear in the Xonotic and Red Eclipse communities.
19:55 Inocudom I hear that a similar tool could be in the works for Red Eclipse.
19:56 Inocudom I also hope that oOChainLynxOo will consider testing a build of the next branch sometime. Would make the game run faster on his laptop.
19:57 thexyz there's no point in making autoupdater for anything other than windows
19:58 us}0gb If you're on a deb-using system, you could use the unstable PPA. Then just run an update check whenever you feel like updating.
19:59 us}0gb Or I could send you the script I use for updating (including compilation) from GitHub.

20:07 OldCoder It is throwing an exception for axedigf not defined; wish to check newest
20:07 NekoGloop Geez
20:07 NekoGloop -I- don't even have that.
20:10 OldCoder Ah
20:10 OldCoder So what was axedigf from?
20:10 OldCoder Hmm
20:11 OldCoder If I post a list of mods would anybody care to say which ones should probably be turned off?
20:12 Calinou joined #minetest
20:12 OldCoder http://oldcoder.org/mods.txt
20:12 OldCoder Opinions on that list linked above are very welcome!
20:12 OldCoder Please to advise an old coder which mods should be disabled
20:13 OldCoder For a random world
20:13 us}0gb Id turn item_drop and item_pickup off, myself.
20:13 OldCoder t y!
20:14 Calinou disable all mods but moreblocks, moreores and maptools
20:14 * Calinou gallops away
20:14 OldCoder Heh
20:14 us}0gb Irc causes crashes on my server, but if it doesn't on yours, I'd keep that on.
20:14 OldCoder Granted. Towntest is dangerous. Enable that one by one
20:14 OldCoder ufos ditto
20:15 markveidemanis good ol' VeideStairs
20:15 * markveidemanis goes to play Half-Life 2...Again
20:15 NekoGloop axedigf...
20:15 OldCoder markveidemanis, that will be added to specific worlds
20:15 OldCoder NekoGloop, yep
20:15 markveidemanis ...Completed it Twice
20:15 markveidemanis ok
20:16 us}0gb I think the rest could go either way. I'd turn off beds and maybe any mobs, but people will debate on that. Some like them, some don't.
20:16 OldCoder Yes. Hmm. Some of these probably conflict with each other.
20:16 t3o in http://wiki.minetest.com/wiki/Privileges / auth.txt : what kinf of hash is that, md5?
20:16 OldCoder Does anybody see any major conflicts?
20:16 t3o kinf / kind
20:16 OldCoder t3o, I think it was 64 bits
20:16 OldCoder R
20:17 us}0gb I don't know those plugins well enough to recognize any conflicts offhand.
20:17 OldCoder Ah I have forgotten sorry
20:17 OldCoder us}0gb, t y!
20:17 us}0gb OldCoder: Wait, node_ownership might conflict with protector, creating spaces no one my edit.
20:18 OldCoder Yep
20:18 Calinou_ joined #minetest
20:18 OldCoder So which should be default?
20:18 t3o OldCoder: sha1 (from source)
20:18 OldCoder Yep
20:18 t3o sha1 in base64
20:18 t3o poor docs
20:18 us}0gb I like protector better, but that's a matter of preference.
20:18 * OldCoder remembered 64
20:18 OldCoder Can adjust later
20:18 OldCoder ATM just wish few crashes
20:19 OldCoder Geez look at all the mesecons
20:19 OldCoder Wasn
20:19 OldCoder Wasn't I supposed to delete command block?
20:19 markveidemanis Anyone know where half life(1) stores configurations on windows?
20:19 OldCoder Sorry no
20:19 us}0gb Yeah ... I like that it's modularized, but the textures should be in the rest of the plugins, not having their own separate module.
20:20 OldCoder /opt/minetest047/share/minetest/mods/gates/init.lua:252: attempt to call method 'register_on_signal_change' (a nil value)
20:21 markveidemanis old mesecons?
20:21 us}0gb Maybe that's a legacy mesecons function? If not, I don't know.
20:21 Inocudom You have such a script for Windows?
20:21 OldCoder I updated mesecons recently. I'll check gates.
20:22 OldCoder Ah
20:22 OldCoder NekoGloop, that is one of yours again! Any comment?
20:22 us}0gb Windows? Sorry, I have no idea how to compile on Windows, so I can't build a script for that.
20:22 Inocudom You are active in this community again, OldCoder.
20:22 OldCoder Inocudom, only off and on
20:22 OldCoder I must revive the worlds
20:23 OldCoder I will work on them one to three times a month
20:23 Inocudom I don't know if a script could be built for compiling on Windows.
20:23 Inocudom Has anyone seen Jeija lately? I have not.
20:24 NekoGloop OldCoder, mesecons updated
20:24 us}0gb No compilation scripts? How depressing.
20:25 OldCoder NekoGloop, should I patch gates?
20:25 NekoGloop dunno
20:25 OldCoder Well, thanks regardless
20:25 OldCoder If I drop gates, what else will break?
20:25 * OldCoder asks the world
20:27 t3o I bet there's a definition of dependencies in each mod. search the other mods for this dependency

20:58 markveidemanis I have Documents and Downloads
20:59 markveidemanis How can i keep downloads clear and still have it make some sense?
20:59 OldCoder Mark I am not clear
20:59 OldCoder You would create
20:59 OldCoder a different tree
20:59 OldCoder Outside of those two
20:59 OldCoder I do not understand the issue
20:59 OldCoder Something like
20:59 OldCoder /files/this
20:59 OldCoder /files/that

21:03 markveidemanis Are games documents?
21:03 markveidemanis So Programming/Python is py?
21:05 markveidemanis Windows...
21:06 markveidemanis Because network won't work with lubuntu, ubuntu, kubuntu or xubuntu
21:06 markveidemanis lubuntu, u* and k* dont even install

21:07 markveidemanis xubuntu does not have drivers for TP-LINK TL-WDN3200 network usb card
21:08 markveidemanis There is a package but that crashes the whole system after a random amount of time or after opening firefox
21:08 PilzAdam that sucks, the standard installation needs network access
21:08 markveidemanis or store
21:08 markveidemanis It doesnt, i can do without but no updates either

21:34 VanessaE why drop unified bricks?
21:34 VanessaE works fine on my server
21:34 VanessaE oh that's been fixed, OldCoder
21:35 OldCoder So update unifiedbricks?
21:35 VanessaE latest git allows > 4096 nodes by default now.
21:35 VanessaE latest minetest git I mean
21:35 VanessaE but your will have to tell your users to use a git build also, there's some incompatibilities between git and 0.4.7-stable when > 4096 nodes are being used.
21:39 OldCoder git client?
21:39 OldCoder Hmm
21:39 OldCoder So old clients will crash?
21:40 OldCoder I need to rest a few minutes. Is there any way to fix unifiedbricks for old clients? May omit it just temporarily.
21:40 * OldCoder is resting
21:42 us}0gb I think stable clients fail to connect. I know my stable client refuses to connect to VanessaE's place. It doesn't crash, it just acts like it can't find the server.
21:42 VanessaE OldCoder: it in't unified bricks,
21:42 VanessaE it's the fact that you have more than 4096 nodes defined.
21:43 VanessaE unified bricks is just pushing you over that limit.
21:43 VanessaE the two solutions are to remove some mods, or update to current git
21:43 VanessaE the change in question went in just yesterday
21:44 VanessaE I favor updating to current git - 0.4.8-stable will be out soon anyway
21:46 us}0gb 32767 nodes .... I'm going to try to hit that limit. It will take a bit of time though.
21:46 VanessaE us}0gb: someone already tried that.  it took a matter of several seconds to register all the nodes, but it worked :)
21:46 VanessaE nothing special about it in fact :)
21:47 us}0gb I did use a loop to hit 4096.
21:47 VanessaE I wonder how many my game has defined, in actuality?
21:47 us}0gb I mean take a while to code 32767 legitimate nodes though. And come up with the ideas for them.
21:47 VanessaE oh yeah
21:48 VanessaE on a new map, btw, the limit can be something like 0xFFFC or something :)
21:48 VanessaE (if you adjust mapnode.h)
21:50 us}0gb Why the C, and not 0xFFFF? THere will be no unknown nodes to deal with.
21:50 us}0gb And that's not much space for unknows anyway.
21:50 us}0gb *unknowns
21:51 us}0gb Three ... Are you accounting for air, unknown, and ignore? THose are withing the limit, not without.
21:51 us}0gb *within

21:54 OldCoder VanessaE, does latest git both fix this issue and support LevelDB?
21:54 VanessaE yes and yes
21:55 VanessaE us}0gb: only 1807 nodes to go.
21:55 OldCoder VanessaE, and tradeoff is that old clients will break *sigh*
21:55 OldCoder Correct?
21:55 VanessaE OldCoder: yeah, but old clients can be updated.
21:55 us}0gb Maybe I should just build off your game .... (just kidding though)
21:56 VanessaE us}0gb: if you want to, go for it! :)
21:56 us}0gb I think it would result in a better game, but would also result in me learning less.
21:56 * VanessaE pushes an update to the game to her online storage
21:56 OldCoder git clone https://github.com/minetest/minetest.git
21:57 OldCoder VanessaE, that is current git; correct?
21:57 OldCoder With both LevelDB and the nodes change?
21:57 VanessaE OldCoder: yep
21:57 us}0gb I'll just continue defining them myself, and try to better my skills.
21:57 OldCoder Old clients may connect but also crash?
21:57 VanessaE OldCoder: old clients just can't connect.
21:57 us}0gb It also gives me a reason to make pulls to the engine.
21:57 OldCoder VanessaE, :-(
21:58 OldCoder I will need to verify that I can build Windows clients still
21:58 OldCoder I don't suppose the latest git fixes the Ambience download speed issue
22:00 OldCoder 14:57:31: ACTION[main]: MOD: mob_npc mod                version 0.0.14 loaded
22:00 OldCoder PANIC: unprotected error in call to Lua API (bad argument #3 (table expected, got nil))
22:00 OldCoder Hmm
22:00 OldCoder Mobs are part of Animals, aren't they?
22:00 OldCoder Should I disable NPC?
22:01 VanessaE no, probably not, but there is some code by kahrl that will help once it goes in
22:01 OldCoder Interesting; xmas mod has the same error
22:02 OldCoder Is there a fix today for NPC?
22:02 VanessaE probably won't be until after 0.4.8 goes out.
22:02 OldCoder If not I'll disable to proceed
22:02 VanessaE I don't know about the NPCs.  probably best to disable them
22:02 OldCoder Hmm
22:02 OldCoder cow has same error
22:02 OldCoder So git breaks animals?
22:02 VanessaE doubtful
22:02 OldCoder This is September Git
22:02 OldCoder But cow has same error
22:02 VanessaE september?  too old.
22:03 OldCoder Fine
22:03 OldCoder I wanted to test this today... so disabled unifiedbricks temporarily
22:03 VanessaE um, it's trivial to git pull and build
22:03 VanessaE :)
22:04 OldCoder VanessaE, Not the issue... I don't wish to update core until I verify I can build a Windows client. I guess I'll try that now.
22:04 VanessaE oh ok
22:04 VanessaE you can always point others to the various unofficial builds also
22:04 Wuzzy2 joined #minetest
22:06 Wuzzy2 What is a cobblestone generator?
22:07 VanessaE Wuzzy2: an arrangement of lava, water, and some kind of containing block such as dirt or glass that causes the water and lava to flow together and generate cobblestone.
22:07 us}0gb Highly useful things, those.
22:08 us}0gb In case you ever run out of cobble.
22:08 VanessaE gloopblocks overrides this behavior to produce basalt, pumice, or obsidian
22:08 Wuzzy2 are water or lava infinite in such a generator?
22:08 VanessaE only if the map and game have infinite liquids.
22:08 VanessaE usually yes
22:09 Wuzzy2 so it is possible to generate infinite cobblestone
22:09 us}0gb Correct.
22:09 VanessaE mmhmm
22:10 Wuzzy2 in the default mod I see the renewable flag is on for water but not for lava
22:10 Wuzzy2 So that would mean as soon as I run out of lava my generator is done
22:10 us}0gb Right ... That's a sucky alteration made recently.
22:10 Wuzzy2 and I have to find new lava
22:10 VanessaE yup.
22:11 us}0gb But that's only the source. The flowing is infinite.
22:11 PilzAdam Wuzzy2, no, since flowing lava is still infinite
22:11 Wuzzy2 aaah
22:11 Wuzzy2 this is how it works!
22:11 PilzAdam otherwise it would be infinite obsidian
22:11 Wuzzy2 okay then cobblestone is infinitely renewable :)
22:11 us}0gb Correct.
22:12 Wuzzy2 88.71.149.15 was right.
22:12 Wuzzy2 Hmmmm
22:12 Wuzzy2 when I think about it ...
22:12 us}0gb IP addresses often are right.
22:12 Wuzzy2 this sounds awesome
22:12 Wuzzy2 i mean the generator
22:12 Wuzzy2 MAYBE this deserves a wiki page
22:13 Wuzzy2 just MAYBE
22:13 Wuzzy2 I am not sure wheather to include game strategies into the wiki as well
22:13 PilzAdam or just look it up in the minecraft wiki
22:13 us}0gb s/wiki/wikipedia/
22:13 Wuzzy2 or just the bare facts
22:13 Wuzzy2 In case you didnt noticed, I am a wiki editor :P
22:13 PilzAdam Id prefere bare facts, unlike the MC wiki which has tutorials and stuff
22:13 Wuzzy2 minecraft wiki wtf
22:14 Wuzzy2 Minetest is NOT Minecraft
22:14 PilzAdam its not?!?!!
22:14 PilzAdam and I thought I was coding on MC all the time...
22:14 Wuzzy2 YA RLY!
22:14 us}0gb That explains SO much, PilzAdam.
22:15 Peacock lol
22:15 Peacock *warning* sarcasm detected
22:15 PilzAdam btw, the wiki should get a structure to serve the "multiple games" system better
22:15 us}0gb Yeah, I'm having a laughing fit on the other side of the Internet.
22:16 Wuzzy2 hmmm I have no idea how this structure should look like
22:16 Wuzzy2 atm the wiki is minetest_game centric
22:17 Wuzzy2 which is not bad because minetest_game is nowhere else documented afaik
22:17 Wuzzy2 theoretically the wiki allows entries about other mods
22:17 Wuzzy2 you just have to add the word “mods” and a bunch of slashes into the the article name
22:18 Wuzzy2 maybe the convention for other games/subgames could be like that
22:18 Wuzzy2 But it would look ugly I guess.
22:18 Gethiox joined #minetest
22:18 Wuzzy2 games/minetest_game/Desert Sand
22:18 Wuzzy2 instead of just “Desert Sand”
22:20 us}0gb That sounds good to me.
22:20 Wuzzy2 Actually I think a lot of writing for minetest_game is boring repetivite work
22:20 Wuzzy2 crafting recipes, node properties
22:20 Wuzzy2 all that technical stuff
22:20 Wuzzy2 it could all be automated
22:20 Wuzzy2 in theory
22:20 Peacock spend more time coming up with unique recipes than writing the code around them lol
22:21 us}0gb Wuzzy2: If someone cared to automate that, it could be done from the Lua sources.
22:21 Wuzzy2 I know but so far nobody bothered to do so xD
22:22 us}0gb Today I automated the scraping of the C++ sources for the node names used by the engine. I imagine the same could be done for the Lua source, though parsing recipes would be more difficult.
22:22 us}0gb If the wiki had a Lua/Minetest environment, it would be easy.
22:23 Wuzzy2 this sounds great
22:23 us}0gb I can try to automate it through Minetest, but that would mean automating the sending of requests to the wiki.
22:24 us}0gb I don't know the wiki's setup, or how to automate such requests.
22:25 us}0gb Also there's the wiki's parsing format. I imagine it doesn't use XHTML.
22:25 Wuzzy2 maybe it would be easier to drop the data into an offline data format.
22:26 us}0gb I can drop it as offline data in XHTML format for sure.
22:26 Wuzzy2 this is a very good start =)
22:27 OldCoder VanessaE, anybody; is there a link that will help to set up a current buildbot framework?
22:27 OldCoder I will merge with my own tweaks
22:28 us}0gb Hmm. I think this could be very worth my time, too. I plan to make a huge game and documenting it. If I could automate the process for minetest_game, that automation would apply to my project as well.
22:28 VanessaE I use my own scripts for building minetest, but only for linux.
22:29 VanessaE john_minetest: dunno, they're broken for me.
22:30 Wuzzy2 us}0gb, what features exactly do you want to cover?
22:30 cy1 joined #minetest
22:32 sfan5 good night everyone
22:32 us}0gb Wuzzy2: Every feature that is not stupid or related to entities (as entities are buggy at the moment).
22:32 us}0gb Good night, sfan5.
22:33 Wuzzy2 Are you telling me that Minetest has stupid features? :O
22:33 Wuzzy2 xD
22:33 us}0gb Wuzzy2: The main purpose of my game is to provide me with a way to learn the API better.
22:33 us}0gb Wuzzy2: Yes, some of the features are very stupid.
22:34 Wuzzy2 Which ones are you talking about?
22:35 us}0gb I can't think of any in the API offhand, though I think I saw some. Minetest itself has some though, such as the camera jerk when taking damage in lava.
22:36 us}0gb And the feature that loads all player files in RAM, even when none of those players are logged in.
22:37 Wuzzy2 Ouch.
22:38 us}0gb Yeah. I think it's a Windows compatibility fix too, from what I can tell.
22:38 us}0gb s/fix/workaround/
22:39 us}0gb But it caries it's hackiness over to the other system's builds as well.
22:41 cy1 joined #minetest
22:47 us}0gb Assuming I use a plugin called "mapgen" to add the mapgen nodes, would it be cleaner to define a node as (for example) mapgen_apple, or define it as mapgen:apple and alias mapgen_apple to it?
22:58 harrison what has huge shoes and lives in a test tube?
23:00 us}0gb I have no idea, harrison.
23:11 ShadowNinja us}0gb: I don't think the registration functions accept nodenames withoua a colon.
23:11 ShadowNinja without*
23:12 us}0gb ShadowNinja: I'd prefix them with a colon to bypass the enforcer.
23:13 us}0gb That method is used for registering "air" and such.
23:17 ShadowNinja mapgen:node sounds like the better way.
23:18 us}0gb Okay, I'll do that then. Thanks for the advice!
23:21 OldCoder ShadowNinja, VanessaE others... I built a Win32 MT client from latest git. As that worked I will now update servers to latest git and continue with mods.
23:22 VanessaE excellent
23:23 us}0gb Nice.
23:23 OldCoder This is likely to take the rest of the year. But we will see. I want Mauvebic to help me get his world to run again. And VanessaE I'd love to see what you have been up to.
23:23 VanessaE naw, you'll have it done sooner than that.
23:23 OldCoder I can't work every day on it... Maybe every other weekend at this point
23:24 OldCoder But we will see
23:25 OldCoder Sokomine, If you see this later, I am proceeding. Remember that you promised to try to make a ZIP of something for me.
