00:41 topcyde Is there a cartography mod / app besides the minetest mapper?  I got lost for an hour and a half in my world yesterday.
00:41 topcyde minetest mapper didn't work for me. I think i have python issues.

02:40 ShadowNinja topcyde: No, but there is a mapper written in C++ that is much faster. A improved version is listed on my github page.
02:41 topcyde shadowninja: this one https://github.com/ShadowNinja/areas?
02:42 ShadowNinja topcyde: No, it's named minetest-mapper-cpp or some such.
02:43 topcyde ah.. found it

03:35 OldCoder Hi
03:35 OldCoder ShadowNinja, VanessaE I did a git clone of
03:35 VanessaE hi
03:35 OldCoder https://github.com/minetest/minetest.git
03:36 OldCoder Hi
03:36 OldCoder then cd into the folder
03:36 OldCoder then
03:36 OldCoder git checkout stable-0.4
03:36 OldCoder then git pull
03:36 OldCoder said up to date
03:36 VanessaE that seems right
03:36 OldCoder why didn't it revert any of the changes from upstream bleeding edge?
03:36 * OldCoder is curious
03:36 VanessaE that I don't know, but 0.4.8 is already out of date due to bugfixes
03:36 OldCoder when I did the git clone
03:37 OldCoder shouldn't it have pulled the latest?
03:37 OldCoder nvm bugfixes curious about how it works
03:37 ShadowNinja OldCoder: The checkout updates your working directory.
03:37 OldCoder But I saw no downloads
03:37 OldCoder Shouldn't it have downloaded more files?
03:37 OldCoder t y for thoughts
03:38 ShadowNinja OldCoder: No, as master contains all of the commits in stable-0.4.
03:38 OldCoder Ah
03:38 OldCoder so git clone
03:38 OldCoder gets stable too?
03:38 OldCoder But are you now recommending
03:38 OldCoder git bleeding edge?
03:39 ShadowNinja OldCoder: Yes, as stable is a subset of master. I would recommend master due to SQLite rollback and a LevelDB fix.

03:44 RavonTUS Hello, any one know what folder mobf stores it's logs in?  (unbunt)
03:44 pandemonium__ what kind of logs? as in whats data are you looking for
03:46 RavonTUS it crashed when I make sheep, but I can't read the error on the screen.  I was hoping it might have a crash log.
03:49 RavonTUS Error:servererror:luaerror: mobf.lua 505: attempt  < and I can't see the rest of the error.
03:50 RavonTUS Minetest v.4.8, Mobf 2.3.2.  and yes Simple Mob was installed and removed, /clearobjects ran before removing, if that helps.  That's about all I saw in the forum.
03:53 arsdragonfly joined #minetest
03:55 pandemonium__ hmm no idea
03:55 pandemonium__ im rather new as well, but i havent had any issues yet
03:55 pandemonium__ have you been modding the modf code?
03:56 pandemonium__ or using parts of it in other mods?
03:56 RavonTUS no, just getting started.  Trying to figure it out.
03:57 pandemonium__ id try a fresh install because i havent had any issues with that mod
03:57 pandemonium__ =/
03:57 pandemonium__ im sure one of the regulars would have better idea
03:57 RavonTUS did RunUO back in the day, looking for something else to mess with. :)
03:57 pandemonium__ this is def it
03:57 pandemonium__ i rewrote the villages mod, if youve seen that
03:58 pandemonium__ i wrote code that makes a 4 point fort with palisade walls
03:58 RavonTUS sounds cool.  I'll have to check it out.
03:58 OldCoder ShadowNinja, t y
03:58 pandemonium__ yeah, its based on how the Instabuild code works
03:58 OldCoder I am building MT for CentOS6. Irrlicht seems to be missing for that distro. I suppose I must build it. What release of Irrlicht is recommended?
04:01 RavonTUS cya round, night.

07:30 topcyde I've downloaded the and vines and ropebox mod and the plants_lib, but can't seem to figure out how to make rope or a ropebox. I've tried several different configurations with assorted plants and leaves and it never does anything.  I'm trying to get my gold laden body out of a very precarious position in the bottom of a volcano, there's starting to get a stack of corpses in there.

08:18 xiong joined #minetest
08:19 xiong Has anyone successfully run a Minetest server from a VPS?
08:19 VanessaE I do.
08:19 VanessaE Five of them, from a Linode instance, to be exact.
08:20 xiong I'm sure you do. You, of all people, are probably not serving off a laptop.
08:20 VanessaE heh, nope.
08:20 xiong However, all the docs I'm turning up seem geared to that crowd: the "I wanna run a server off my laptop through my home broadband connection when Mom and Dad aren't looking" crowd.
08:21 xiong I believe I have successfully installed minetest-server 0.4.8 in my VPS.
08:22 xiong I theorize that minetest.conf will need to be substantially different from one in which key mappings are given.
08:22 VanessaE not really.
08:23 xiong Well.
08:23 aheinecke joined #minetest
08:23 xiong ... for some value of "substantially". I'm autistic so I consider anything past a blank line, significant.
08:24 VanessaE here's te config I use on my survival server:
08:24 VanessaE http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6518609/
08:24 VanessaE the other four are substantially similar
08:25 VanessaE differing mostly in the MOTD and master server stuff (lines 17-24)
08:25 xiong Ha, far out.
08:25 VanessaE creative is the only other one that uses the remote_media feature
08:25 xiong I did the stupidest possible thing and started the server with no config file at all. Connected from my own desktop client. Works.
08:25 VanessaE (for that, you need to set up a webserver; I use nginx, per thexyz's suggestion)
08:27 VanessaE lines 27-29 and 32-34 are mod-specific, you can ignore those.  line 16 is a leftover from an old config
08:28 VanessaE at the very very least, you need the name= and server_*= lines, and you should have a static_spawnpoint and motd.
08:28 VanessaE the rest just depends on personal preference, level of risk (e.g the map save interval), etc.
08:29 xiong Um... but I started the server without any of that.
08:29 VanessaE yep I know
08:29 VanessaE without a name= parameter, the server doesn't know who the admin is.
08:30 VanessaE without the server_*= lines, it won't announce to the master server lisr
08:30 VanessaE list*
08:30 VanessaE motd is for other clients, works like an irc motd but shorter.
08:31 VanessaE a static spawnpoint is a must.  without it, people may spawn inside trees, in the water, underground, etc. instead of wherever you want them to, e.g. a specific building
08:31 VanessaE rollback recording is essential to protect against griefing to some degree.  you can use it to undo others' damage.
08:32 xiong Well, the last thing I want to do with a testing server is announce it.
08:32 VanessaE default privs almost always needs to be set, as without it I seem to recall everyone gets shout, interact, and eh I forget the other one.  maybe noclip.  You'll likely want to avoid granting interact by default, but you may on the other hand want to give everyone fast, perhaps fly.
08:32 xiong No, I don't mean to continue from this point. No configuration, no mods, nothing.
08:32 VanessaE ok
08:33 VanessaE well surely you will leave the 'testing' phase and make it public, or at least shared to a few friends.  you still need at least some of that ^^^
08:33 xiong I'm just happy it works at all. That puts me over several bars, including a half-hour lecture from the Debian wonks about how I should never have installed the unstable package the way I did. And they may well be right... but the proof of the pudding is, it works.
08:34 arsdragonfly joined #minetest
08:35 xiong Well, thanks for the example minetest.conf file. Between that and whatever default the server spits out on quit, if any, I'll have a starting point. I suspect all the configuration is here, not in command line options.

08:36 hoodedice I'm in the top 20!
08:36 hoodedice http://sfan5.duckdns.org/ircstats/minetest.html
08:37 hoodedice And the latest build doesn't run!
08:37 xiong Yes well, as I say, I'm sure there's no going forward from where I am now... without some sort of configuration.
08:37 VanessaE I'm still the biggest chatterbox on the channel :)
08:37 VanessaE well good luck.
08:37 xiong Thanks again.
08:39 hoodedice Indeed. "VanessaE talks to herself a lot. She wrote over 5 lines in a row 125 times!"
08:39 VanessaE heh
08:39 VanessaE I guess the bot doesn't know from writing for the sake of the logs for later review

18:17 PilzAdam Microchip, are you going to do that now?
18:18 Microchip Lol. Well first, does LuaJIT compile at runtime?
18:18 Microchip Or during initialization of init.lua
18:18 PilzAdam nekofire, eh, dont run Minetest in paths with special characters
18:18 PilzAdam Microchip, its a just in time compiler
18:18 PilzAdam so it compiles at runtime
18:18 nekofire bleh there are none i just stuck it on my desktop
18:19 PilzAdam "Kristin =’?’=" looks very "special" to me
18:19 Microchip Then, wouldn't the compiler take longer than just interpreting the code?
18:20 PilzAdam Microchip, may I direct you to the wikipedia article about JIT? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation
18:20 Microchip Ah. Thanks xD
18:20 nekofire im not sure why its doing that i just stuck it on my desktop.....ohhh....shit
18:20 nekofire heh
18:20 nekofire kay
18:21 VanessaE Microchip: the short version is that the JIT compiler runs through the code in a few seconds, one time, at server start-up.  After that, until the next start, only the compiled results are run.
18:22 VanessaE what costs a few seconds at startup saves minutes, possibly hours for really complex code, over time.

18:46 * Jordach has 3 MK3 Mining drills on VE-Survival
18:46 thefamilygrog66 bonjour
18:47 VanessaE hi
18:47 Microchip joined #minetest
18:48 Jordach VanessaE, i am god now :D
18:48 Jordach evergreen only has one drill :D
18:48 Microchip Is this a good idea for a mod? A furnace that burns fuel yet doesn't smelt anything, used for light
18:48 VanessaE heh..  rm /home/minetest/.minetest/worlds/Survival_World/players/Jordach
18:48 VanessaE >:-)
18:48 Jordach VanessaE, fuck off :P
18:48 Microchip ^ lol
18:49 Jordach also; y u /.minetest/
18:49 kaeza >not RUN_IN_PLACE
18:49 kaeza :<
18:50 VanessaE why use a run-in-place build on VPS server?
18:50 khor joined #minetest
18:50 kaeza VanessaE, because easy management :P
18:50 thefamilygrog66 howdy
18:50 Jordach VanessaE, i preferred it too
18:50 VanessaE kaeza: ssh root@host <insert password>; make; make install ....
18:51 Jordach you run minetest AS ROOT
18:51 VanessaE no
18:51 kaeza plus you can nuke everything with a simple `rm'
18:51 VanessaE I install it as root, duh
18:51 am-i-kawaii today's penalty its hot in summer, not in minetest. how do i put it somewhere in 0.4.x when we don't exactly like dirt_with_grass but with a /giveme if you can also be nice
18:51 kaeza <.<
18:51 Jordach she's fucking retarded
18:51 Jordach veto right now: KICKBAN?
18:51 kaeza -1
18:52 Jordach i thought we had this convo on bots
18:52 Jordach no bots allowed for fuck sakes
18:52 kaeza VanessaE, I have several users on my VPS; one for service-like things like quassel, a random IRC bot, etc, one for minetest, and a "personal" account
18:52 botbotbot joined #minetest
18:52 VanessaE ditto.
18:52 botbotbot I am a bot. Not.
18:52 VanessaE minetest runs as "minetest"
18:52 botbotbot left #minetest
18:53 VanessaE my webserver I think runs as nobody, with files owned by either me or minetest (depending on what they are)
18:53 Jordach iirc, didn't xyz say himself, no more bots
18:53 VanessaE I only use root for admin stuff as usual.
18:53 kaeza RUN_IN_PLACE keeps things clean, with all minetest-related files in ~minetest
18:54 thefamilygrog66 I wish I was a freakin' robot sometimes.
18:54 kaeza the "services" account has all the stuff related to quassel, the bot, etc under it's home dir too
18:54 VanessaE kaeza: ditto
18:55 kaeza anyway, if it works for you, it works for you :P
18:55 VanessaE my website (and abe's) in my homedir, minetest's stuff in its homedir
18:55 VanessaE and yeah, it does.  so sod off.  or something. ;)
18:58 thefamilygrog66 Yep, those were the good old days, john_minetest
19:01 Leoneof joined #minetest
19:07 thefamilygrog66 hey VanessaE, has the font changed for signs in homedecor?
19:07 VanessaE yes
19:08 VanessaE kaeza improved the code to the point where he and I were able to put in higher-resolution fonts
19:08 thefamilygrog66 thought so - was on a server last night that has it, but wasn't sure if it was tweaked or not
19:08 thefamilygrog66 good job - they look really good now
19:08 VanessaE by default it's 17px now instead of 6px or whatever it was before
19:08 thefamilygrog66 don't tell Jordach, though...
19:09 Jordach GR
19:09 Jordach i heard that
19:09 thefamilygrog66 TOO MANY PIXELS!!!
19:09 thefamilygrog66 bahaha
19:09 Jordach quassel makes this BIG GREY BAR at the top of my screen with the message in it
19:09 VanessaE thefamilygrog66: it goes higher :P
19:10 VanessaE the highest-resolution font supplied with the mod goes to 34px
19:10 thefamilygrog66 nice
19:10 VanessaE or something lik that
19:10 Issa2013 joined #minetest
19:10 thefamilygrog66 I suppose I should update all my mods for this brand spanking new version, eh?
19:11 VanessaE 11, 17, 25, and 34px are it, with 17px being the default.
19:11 VanessaE oh yes, most definitely :)
19:11 VanessaE but kaeza will be adding locked signs soon, too :)
19:11 thefamilygrog66 very cool
19:12 twoelk Vanessa, could it be that the links to the maps of your servers in the forum topics point to a folder not existing under that address?
19:12 VanessaE aw crap
19:13 VanessaE I'll fix it
19:16 jojoa1997 joined #minetest
19:17 jojoa1997 how come when i run minetest windows firewall comes up
19:19 twoelk minetest needs your permission to use some ports as you might want to play on a public server or host one
19:19 Jordach jojoa1997, it just does
19:21 jojoa1997 if my school blocks it is there any other way to host a lan server or something of the sort that others could connect to
19:23 VanessaE twoelk: ok, it's fixed.  the maps will be updated tonight at their regular schedule.
19:24 twoelk fine
19:24 VanessaE (I forgot to re-compile the mapper after moving the VPS over to debian)
19:24 Jordach lel
19:26 Jordach VanessaE, you might be able to compile, write bash, run stuff, but can't remember anything - it's just like you have 640k in your head :D
19:26 proller joined #minetest
19:27 twoelk now I just need to find a working client as "stable" seems outdated for a VanessaE server again :-(
19:27 VanessaE twoelk: 0.4.8 should work fine?
19:27 VanessaE (also, it is *not* fixed.  getting segfaults while the mapper is running)
19:27 Jordach ohai jojoa1997
19:29 jojoa1997 Hi Jordach!
19:30 twoelk don't know wether sqlite allows reading a database while another program has it open.

19:46 emptty Hello there. It seems to me that mods don't work in my minetest packages for debian, but I dunno why
19:46 Issa2013 joined #minetest
19:46 emptty When I'm in the Mods tab of the menu, my console is filled with error messages: Could not open file of texture: /home/mquinson/.minetest/textures/base/pack/no_screenshot.png
19:47 emptty That file does not exist on my disk
19:47 FreeFull You can probably ignore those
19:47 emptty It should be /usr/share/games/minetest/textures/base/pack/no_screenshot.png, which exists
19:48 emptty I guess that this is a (minor?) bug due to the fact that I dont play in place
19:49 emptty And when I try to get online mods, I get the message: 20:48:52: ERROR[main]: MAINMENU ERROR: LuaError: C++ exception
19:53 Jordach damn PA goes far

19:54 Jordach the Db meter is recieving 80Db total from PulseAudio + Triton Headset Amp
19:55 FreeFull 80dB is pretty loud
19:55 Jordach eg, my Acoustic headphones can take it
19:56 Jordach and 12v of power (thank you USB)
19:56 FreeFull v is voltage
19:56 Jordach Acoustic Solutions also makes stuff under the Acoustic brand, keep an eye out for them, they're much better than the average
19:57 thefamilygrog66 too loud...
19:57 Jordach thefamilygrog66, it still doesn't stop my brother's bass
19:57 Jordach i'm actually thinking of installing oscillators to conteract it
19:57 Jordach counteract*
20:08 iqualfragile guys: fix your www, install request policy
20:08 iqualfragile its worth it
20:09 iqualfragile emptty: you can ignore those screenshot messages

20:10 emptty iqualfragile: do you know anything about the LuaError: C++ exception ?

20:52 Calinou a proxy increases lag anyway :P
20:52 ShadowNinja emptty: Writing to the mod directory is bad practice and should be considered a mod error, the world dir is a better place, although we should probably have a settings dir or similar for non-world-specific files.
20:53 emptty ShadowNinja: Not sure that this is what happens here. I only know that the modstore raises a C++ error that breaks in lua
20:53 iqualfragile emptty: no
20:54 ShadowNinja emptty: That error message happens when a function in the Lua API throws an exception and LuaJIT gobbles up the message.
20:54 emptty How could I debug this one?
20:55 ShadowNinja "throw LuaError(L, "Something went wrong");" -> "ServerError: LuaError: C++ exception" Try compiling with non-JIT Lua.

21:05 kaeza Leoneof, depends on server
21:07 xiong I find that I'm able to run 'minetestserver' as an ordinary user without 'sudo'. That puts all the configurations in '~/.minetest', yes? Is there any reason to tinker with anything outside of '/home'? I was considering a fake user on the system.
21:08 Leoneof this game is using %100 of cpu with two cores, whats up
21:13 thefamilygrog66 it's hacking your system, Leoneof
21:13 FreeFull xiong: Minetest servers run on ports above 1024, so yeah, you don't need root priviledges at all
21:14 xiong No; and I don't see, then, why I want to do any configuration at all, of any kind, outside of some dedicated user account.
21:15 xiong It's a service; it should be run by a service (fake) user.
21:15 xiong I mean, it's not an essential service so why have it anywhere outside of '/home'?
21:16 Calinou Leoneof, the game uses some multithreading
21:16 Calinou it is a good thing
21:16 * Jordach + shaders + TP = https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?pid=120731#p120731
21:16 Jordach (look at the water level!)
21:16 Leoneof Calinou: but it's supposed to use gpu? i feel not
21:16 Calinou it uses both
21:17 Leoneof i want to use only gpu, my cpu is poor and don't want to put all effort on it :]
21:18 Calinou you can't
21:19 Calinou CPU will always be needed for a GPU to work
21:19 Calinou rendering calls put stress on the CPU too
21:19 Leoneof :(
21:20 Leoneof winehq + hitman3 is very smooth and more than minetest -_-
21:20 FreeFull Any news on minetest 2?

21:30 Calinou find an acronym for it or something
21:31 thefamilygrog66 that sounds like a band-aid solution

21:49 VanessaE sure
21:49 Esteban hi everyone! :D
21:49 Calinou hi Esteban :)
21:49 EvergreenTree Hello!
21:52 EvergreenTree It's nice to see me and VanessaE's rotate_and_place is used
21:52 kaeza holas Esteban
21:52 Esteban hola Kaeza!
21:53 Esteban Things I write here can be seen in the IRC mod? or do I have to use a specified channel?
21:53 Esteban I always had this doubt :P
21:53 kaeza lol no :P
21:53 PilzAdam bye
21:53 kaeza we have a dedicated channel on another network though
21:54 kaeza #minetest @ irc.inchra.net
21:54 Calinou Esteban, the IRC mod can use any channel as relay
21:54 Calinou however, if someone uses this channel as a relay, I think the bot would get quieted (which means people can say stuff to the server, but not the inverse)
21:55 Esteban Oh...  thanks guys!
21:55 Calinou np
21:55 Calinou night :)

22:01 Esteban How I connect to other channels? Im a noob to the irc XD
22:02 EvergreenTree You're using the web irc right?
22:02 Esteban yes
22:02 EvergreenTree You can't unless you open a new tab in the browser
22:03 EvergreenTree I would suggest using an irc client like hexchat or quassel
22:03 Esteban thanx
22:03 * EvergreenTree uses xchat
22:04 kaeza you can connect to other channels via webchat, but not to other networks
22:04 kaeza still, I recommend getting hexchat
22:04 kaeza will make your life easier :>
22:05 * Esteban writes it down on a notepad
22:06 EvergreenTree I was about to say "notepad sucks" until I realized you meant real life, not software.  :P
22:07 kaeza yes, use leafpad; it sucks but it's free!
22:07 EvergreenTree plol
22:07 Esteban lol
22:07 EvergreenTree If you use windows, notepad++ is great
22:07 EvergreenTree for coding stuff
22:09 Esteban Since i havent programmed stuff before, I used to use notepad, but for now Im using wordpad...when I get my new pc Ill get notepad++
22:10 EvergreenTree I'm not sure if it supports windows, but two good editing programs for linux is geany(for larger projects) and gedit(for smaller things)
22:10 EvergreenTree s/it/they
22:10 kaeza geany at least works on windows
22:10 kaeza dunno about gedit
22:11 EvergreenTree I looked it up, it does
22:11 kaeza there's also jEdit if you don't mind having to install the JRE :3
22:11 EvergreenTree and also, gedit basically means gnome-edit
22:11 EvergreenTree because it is the default text editor for gnome
22:13 EvergreenTree lol, sfan5's stats:  "Is Miner_48er stupid or just asking too many questions? 43.5% lines contained a question! "
