02:57 someguy_irc joined #minetest
02:57 Illyasviel They decided they wanted to be female?
02:57 AgentFire Like the top is still the wood texture
02:57 AgentFire But the sides are pink
02:57 AgentFire And the sapling appears to be pink too
02:57 paramat joined #minetest

03:08 Hobodium joined #minetest
03:11 zat paramat: I actually abandoned it
03:12 zat paramat: I can hand you the code if you want to develop it further
03:12 paramat is it on github?
03:12 zat nop
03:13 paramat oh actually i have the code lol
03:13 zat that code you have is super ultra alpha
03:13 zat not even close to what I developed after
03:14 paramat interesting, i hope you work on it again, textures are especially good
03:15 zat join the team and I will work again on it
03:16 zat I will ask the team
03:16 * zat agrees
03:16 zat the team agrees
03:16 paramat okay good
03:17 zat what do you code in?
03:18 paramat i will help out, i could maintain a copy on my github if that's okay with you
03:18 paramat well lua and just starting c++
03:19 zat I am not familiar with github terms
03:19 zat ...of use
03:19 zat anything I should care of?
03:20 CraigyDavi joined #minetest
03:20 paramat im not too familiar either, nevermind that's not necessary
03:21 zat paramat: but are you more comfortable there?
03:21 zat because I have my own git server
03:21 zat but you would have to use command line or whatever client you prefer
03:22 paramat i see, im confident with terminal git commands
03:23 zat then lets see it there
03:23 paramat im happy to use a different git server if you prefer
03:26 paramat the mgv7 biome API is a bit broken, i now have the job of improving it. you can have up to 256 biomes, good to see someone making gradual changes in surface nodes
03:27 zat My biomes are like... a lot
03:27 zat they are now generated on startup from a list with different criteria.
03:27 zat Maybe 50
03:27 zat or more
03:29 paramat good stuff

10:59 someguy_irc joined #minetest
11:00 ThatGraemeGuy the server itself is probably fine, the DNS is not resolving though
11:00 ThatGraemeGuy seems that whoever serves DNS for minetest.net is having trouble
11:00 ninnghazad ye, its down for a few hours now
11:00 ninnghazad at least

12:41 marktraceur Does anyone know if someone's built a client that just connects to the server, loads a particular block, and doesn't do anything?
12:41 marktraceur For purposes of keeping pipeworks/technic/mesecons stuff running.
12:44 ThatGraemeGuy never heard of such a thing
12:44 ThatGraemeGuy do you admin the server?
12:46 Akagi201 joined #minetest
12:46 ThatGraemeGuy @marktraceur ^^
12:46 ninnghazad marktraceur: minetest.forceload_block() ?
12:47 ninnghazad you could build simple force-loader-block with it. maybe there is already a mod with one in it.
12:48 ThatGraemeGuy there is one in technic but there's no recipe for it, and admin must /give it
12:48 ThatGraemeGuy or at least someone with /give privilege
12:48 ninnghazad ye anchor block, just saw the source
12:49 ninnghazad you may need to adjust max_forceloaded_blocks option though
12:50 ninnghazad its only 16 or smth by default
12:50 ThatGraemeGuy yes the default is woefully inadequate
12:50 ThatGraemeGuy I think I bumped it to 1000 on a very small server a while back
12:50 ninnghazad have it at 4096 on decent machine no prob
12:50 ninnghazad but dont think i ever hit that limit
12:51 Amaz Mod that does it: https://github.com/rubenwardy/forceload
13:13 DFeniks joined #minetest
13:17 marktraceur ThatGraemeGuy: Yes
13:18 marktraceur OK
13:18 * marktraceur will give himself some forceload stuff
13:18 ThatGraemeGuy marktraceur: also increase the max forloaded blocks in your server's minetest.conf
13:18 ThatGraemeGuy the default is pitiful
13:19 ThatGraemeGuy On a VM with 1GB of RAM and 1 vCPU I had that up to 1000 with no significant impact

13:44 marktraceur PenguinDad: I'd go there.
13:44 marktraceur WE SHOULD BUY A BAR!
13:47 * PenguinDad throws a lithium bar at marktraceur
13:47 marktraceur Ow
13:48 PenguinDad marktraceur: Lithium isn't that heavy
13:49 marktraceur Says the person not getting hit in the face with it.

17:47 rbduck one question, is it possible to use two different textures for fencelike nodes, one texture for the big thing in the middle (the post) and one for the connection part???
17:47 sol_invictus joined #minetest
17:47 Calinou no
17:47 Calinou use a nodebox :/ or meshnode
17:48 Krock ^
17:49 rbduck but how can i make it behave like normal fence??
17:49 Beton meshnodes are available in 0.4.10?
17:49 ElectronLibre Beton: In 0.4.10-dev actually, and in 0.4.11 in the future.
17:49 Calinou rbduck, you'd need code to automatically adapt them
17:50 rbduck i just had an idea, i'll going to look into pipeworks code
17:54 Calinou I found an huge patch of diamonds in Carbone, legit
17:54 rbduck but that is too complex, i am going to make these blocks with nbe, without automatically connecting
17:54 Krock Whoa. Chrome crashed. Relauch now?
17:54 Krock Chrome has detected a problem and must be closed.
17:54 Krock interesting loop
17:55 JamesTait joined #minetest
17:55 rbduck mmh
17:55 Krock Beton, 'dev' means 'in-developement' but 0.4.11 should release soon. It was planned to happen in november

17:58 Eivel Hey, is any of the Core devs online now?
17:59 Krock in #minetest-dev
17:59 rbduck when i read the word beton, i thought about the german word "Beton", which means concrete/cement XD
17:59 Krock wait. beton isn't a english word?
17:59 ElectronLibre It's the same in french actually.
18:00 Krock I think it's something like a product name
18:00 Eivel rbduck, Krock, I don't know about german, but in polish beton means concrete
18:00 Beton beton is polish word and it means concrete :P
18:00 rbduck ok?
18:01 * PenguinDad builds a house out of Beton :P
18:01 Krock Eivel, okay. Everybody understands it but the english not :D
18:01 Krock *but not the english
18:01 ElectronLibre polish.beton = french.beton = german.beton = english.concrete so.
18:01 PenguinDad Inconsistency!

19:24 ElectronLibre The one on the top of the list. But what do you mean exactly by "most populated"?
19:25 ImQ009 joined #minetest
19:26 Calinou happy 4th birthday, Minecraft Alpha 1.2.3.
19:26 Yellowberry really?
19:26 Yellowberry wow
19:27 catninja ElectronLibre: the one with most actually active players
19:27 hawk666 joined #minetest
19:29 ElectronLibre It's the one on the top of the list so.
19:30 Calinou “just test” is the most populated server, catninja
19:30 Calinou not the best one, I'd say :P
19:30 ElectronLibre It's not the best one yes, to say the least..
19:33 catninja haha okay, what is that supposed to mean?
19:33 hawk666 anyone interested in light role play servers ?
19:34 Calinou catninja, lots of immature players
19:34 pandaro im interessed in role play server
19:35 Calinou illegal mobile clients
19:35 pandaro im immature
19:35 catninja Calinou: that's so sad. It feels like you have to choose between no one to play with or just rude immature people -__-
19:35 ElectronLibre catninja: Actually, if I remember correctly, there is nobody to manage the server and control the players. It's full of grieffed buildings, and a lot of awful stuff.
19:36 Calinou catninja, play on private servers, or on small public servers
19:36 Calinou qbuissiondebon.info
19:36 Calinou port 30001
19:36 Calinou try this one
19:36 pandaro hi all
19:37 pandaro I do not believe to be bad mannered
19:37 * ElectronLibre prepare himself to welcome a lot of players on the server that Calinou have given the adress.
19:38 catninja Calinou: that is my server of choosing (next after lott ofc) but since everyone only speaks french I feel so ridicously alone all the time when I'm on... :/
19:38 catninja but it's a beautiful, fun and polite-players server
19:38 Calinou I speak English and French ;)
19:39 Calinou I have a large, public farm
19:39 ElectronLibre catninja: Actually, when someone start speaking english, we all (try to) speak english.
19:39 Calinou tons of cocoa, potatoes, wheat and papyrus
19:39 ElectronLibre There are people who cannot, but we translate for them.
19:39 Calinou I have a thousand chocolate donuts or so
19:39 Calinou and 300 baked potatoes
19:40 ack0Rx joined #minetest
19:40 catninja ElectronLibre: the problem is that it only keeps up for a short while and then everyone falls back into french again. And I don't wanna be like "guys guys I'm still here...." all the time ;)
19:40 exio4 whatever, how is it going wild shibes :D
19:41 hawk666 I have a server in early development it's a light role play server running 24/7 it's aim is to build a city on a huge  scale with towns on the outside, with huge rail networks and road networks. Only MCmiddleearth has achieved in terms of the map.
19:42 Krock !up minetest.ntdll.net
19:42 Eivel Hey guys, has anyone played on Xanadu server?

22:12 Megaf Hi all
22:12 Megaf Hi ShadowNinja
22:13 Megaf ShadowNinja: I making an ultra small and minimal minetest subgame
22:13 Megaf I'd like to add your areas protection mod to it, but it's just a huge mod
22:13 Megaf compared to other parts of my game
22:14 Megaf And I already compacted it
22:14 Megaf Im looking for a smaller way to have something similar to areas
22:15 ShadowNinja Megaf: Areas is pretty small.  It's designed to be very flexible though so it includes code for a lot of features.
22:16 Megaf I saw that
22:17 ShadowNinja Megaf: If you want something that takes up less bytes protector or landclaum_0gb_us might do.
22:17 ShadowNinja Or maybe they won't.
22:18 Megaf ShadowNinja: http://paste.debian.net/134808/
22:18 ShadowNinja Areas isn't very heavy though, it adds miniscule (unmeasured, but not noticable) lag on servers with 1000+ areas.
22:19 Megaf I will remove README from areas
22:19 Megaf this is my game https://github.com/Megaf/Pixel
22:19 Megaf ShadowNinja: and I'm builtin in all I can on default/init.lua
22:19 ShadowNinja Megaf: BTW, use submodules so you don't have to copy everything.
22:20 init me.lua
22:20 chrisf hi #minetest -- i want to build a block-based game which involves multiple voxel grids moving around, and no `terrain` grid. i also have quite a few quantities per cell that i want to track. is starting with minetest sane, or is there something better suited?
22:20 Megaf I have built in sethome, give_initial_stuff, pixels
22:20 Megaf and more stuff
22:20 Megaf chrisf: grong game, minetest cant do that
22:21 Megaf in minetest stuff is usually static
22:21 ShadowNinja Megaf: You can also use a Lua equivalent of uglify.js to minimize it if space is that important to you.
22:21 chrisf Megaf: the wiki suggests that voxel-based movable things is something that's wanted later, though
22:21 Megaf I want to save every possible bit
22:21 Megaf but it cant add lag on runtime
22:22 Megaf it has to be as lightweight as possbile
22:22 ShadowNinja Your whole game probably fits in a L2 or L3 CPU cache though, so I wouldn't wory about it.
22:22 chrisf Megaf: (i'd be willing to contribute the engine changes required, if it's stuff that is wanted.)
22:23 Megaf ShadowNinja: can I remove LICENSE from areas?
22:23 ShadowNinja Megaf: OK, strip whitespace, rename it to 'a', make all variables and functions single characters...
22:23 Megaf chrisf: that would be fantastic and very welcome
22:23 Megaf chrisf: you can join #Minetest-Dev to talk about the engine
22:23 ShadowNinja Remove public API and compat code.
22:23 ShadowNinja Megaf: Nope.
22:23 chrisf ok thanks
22:24 Megaf no?
22:24 ShadowNinja That should get it pretty small.
22:24 Megaf ok
22:24 ShadowNinja Megaf: I'm pretty sure that's not allowed.
22:24 Megaf LICENSE is the buggest file...
22:24 jin_xi chrisf: maybe minetest is not the best starting point, but minetests creator has worked on a new project that looks a lot more like it could do what you need
22:25 ShadowNinja Megaf: Just make sure to rename the mod if you change anything externally accessible.
22:25 jin_xi https://github.com/celeron55/buildat
22:25 Megaf ok
22:26 chrisf jin_xi: ok, thanks, i will have a look at that too
22:26 meldrian joined #minetest
22:26 Megaf is the api.lua needed?
22:29 Megaf ShadowNinja: the only thing I have removed from areas so far is legacy stuff and lots of white spaces
22:30 proller joined #minetest
22:31 ShadowNinja Megaf: https://github.com/stravant/LuaMinify
22:32 ShadowNinja I'd just run that on releases though.
22:32 ShadowNinja Otherwise the code is almost unmaintainable.
22:33 Megaf Interesting
22:34 Megaf hm
22:34 Megaf ok

22:45 waressearcher2 is anyone here ?
22:46 Megaf no
22:46 Megaf nobody
22:46 Megaf Hm, LuaMinify doesnt work
22:47 FR^2 everyone dropped dead some minutes ago. Funerals will be tomorrow.
22:47 Megaf well, I will just remode areas in the near future and add something else
22:47 waressearcher2 http://image.bayimg.com/a8b5daf2fdd4eb385166c0e1974dbdd8f6817946.jpg when you travel the lands around you are generated close to you, how to increase that range ? not "range of view" but range of map generation ?  where in source code can I find that limit ?
22:47 Megaf in minetest.conf
22:47 Megaf something related to generate distance
22:48 waressearcher2 Megaf: do you know where I can find it in source code ?
22:49 waressearcher2 mapgen.cpp ?
22:49 Megaf no...
22:49 Megaf wait

23:39 VanessaE waressearcher2: max_block_generate_distance = 6
23:39 VanessaE (in minetest.conf)
23:39 VanessaE increase that value to increase the range; the figure is number of mapblocks.
23:40 VanessaE you do not have to tweak the engine's code.
23:48 waressearcher2 VanessaE: how is that by default its "6" blocks ?
23:48 VanessaE it's coded somewhere in the engine to generate out to 6 mapblocks from your current location unless you've changed that variable in your minetest.conf
23:49 VanessaE (unless the devs changed the default and didn't update the minetest.conf.example)
