05:32 player1015 I just found out about minetest and I'm really fascinated with it. Does minetest have standard modpacks or a management system for them? I think that it would really increase its popularity if it had modpacks similar to minecraft's feed the beast that you could just install and play with friends
05:36 sofar there's "Subgames" that effectively do this
05:37 sofar some modpacks exist that come really close to that as well
05:37 sofar player1015: best place to look is the various forum sections
05:37 sofar https://forum.minetest.net/viewforum.php?f=38
05:38 sofar player1015: and yes, there is a *ton* of content out there, all ready to install and use
05:42 player1015 sofar: I see lots of interesting subgames on the forum. Are the subgame servers usually active with lots of players?
05:42 sofar they feel pretty busy at the moment
05:43 sofar sfan5: do we have stats like 'currently playing: xxx players' somewhere?
05:43 sofar sfan5: maybe convince minetestbot to query/show it
05:43 sofar MinetestBot: !playing
05:43 sofar MinetestBot: !players
05:44 sofar !playing
05:44 sofar !players

05:45 sofar that's just one page with ~200 players?
05:46 sofar of course, it's the top servers
05:46 player1015 Nice. Are there any mods that implement something like Factions for minecraft? Land claiming for pvp servers that you can overclaim with enough power
05:47 sofar player1015: please note that "subgames" do not need special downloads if you're playing on a server that runs a subgame
05:47 player1015 Really? How does it work then?
05:47 sofar minetest downloads all the needed parts at first connect
05:47 sofar including 3d models, animations, sounds, textures
05:47 sofar most of the servers in the list are heavily modded already
05:48 sofar e.g. skyblock server is a completely different world with custom craft recipes
05:48 player1015 Is the downloaded code sandboxed?
05:48 sofar dreambuilder has thousands of nodes
05:48 sofar code isn't downloaded at all
05:48 sofar (*)
05:48 sofar in the future it may be, but it will be sandboxed heavily
05:49 sofar minetest currently does not have client side mods, all the mod code runs on the server only
05:51 player1015 So rendering a menu for a machine for example would be done by standard code that gets some type of markup from the server?
05:51 sofar correct (called a formspec in minetest lingo)
05:52 sofar mods all run entirely on the server only, and are written in lua
05:52 lumidify joined #minetest
05:52 sofar mods provide extra assets as they need
05:53 sofar the server finds all the assets when it starts, and then sends them out to each client that connects
05:53 player1015 Does singleplayer also run a server on your machine?
05:58 sofar effectively
05:58 sofar otherwise code is just duplicated for no reason
05:58 sofar but in singleplayer mode, nobody else can connect
05:58 sofar it's the same efficiency, though

14:22 DS-minetest hi Tre
14:23 Paul27 Hello. There's someone on the community that can host a server even for a short period of time?
14:24 ThomasMonroe_ Paul27 try minetesthosting/com
14:24 ThomasMonroe_ .com*
14:27 Paul27 I know but the free hosting service there is much limited. The point is that i would like to "launch" a server, but only in a test state.
14:28 Paul27 I mean, to see how it would develop
14:29 CalebDavis joined #minetest
14:31 CalebDavis i am wondering is there a way to hide the "<player> is connecting" messages in a server
14:32 DS-minetest hm, if an object A collides with another object B, both have the same velocity direction, A is in front of B, B i faster, what's the new velocity of B, the velocity of A or 0?
14:33 CalebDavis i think A and B would trade velocities
14:34 Paul27 Well, if A and B are two solids like stone or wood, and if B is enough fast, they'll stick togheter
14:34 DS-minetest (i mean objects in minetest)
14:34 Paul27 Ops
14:35 CalebDavis yea they should end up with a velocity that is the average of them both

15:08 red-002 player is connecting?
15:08 red-002 you mean ** Player joined right?
15:09 CalebDavis no the *** PLayer is connecting
15:10 CalebDavis it appears om mms and not much else cause so many people are trying to connect but not getting through
15:11 CalebDavis so it says that they are connection but doesnt say that they join
15:11 CalebDavis connecting*

15:56 Paul27 Hello. There's someone on the community that can host a server even for a short period of time?
15:59 red-002 define short period of time
15:59 calculon joined #minetest
15:59 red-002 minutes? hours? days?
15:59 Paul27 like a month?
16:00 red-002 well you can try can convince existing server hosts
16:00 red-002 you need a good argument through
16:00 Paul27 That's what i'm asking for?
16:01 Shara Maybe try explaining why you need it and what you'll do with it.
16:01 Shara Server owners get multiple requests for things like this practically every day.
16:02 red-002 why can't you host it yourself anyway?
16:03 red-002 you just need a pc and be willing to pay the power bill for leaving it running overnight
16:03 Paul27 Shara: I want to see how a low-modded server with simple name and rules would gain popularity
16:03 red-002 that's what I did before I got bored of hosting a server
16:03 proller joined #minetest
16:03 Shara A simple server isn't really anything new.
16:04 Paul27 red-002: This can be dumb, but i'm afraid of.. hacker attacks
16:04 red-002 or if you don't mind investing a bit you can get a vps
16:04 Shara You can get a pretty cheap VPS for a server like that.
16:04 red-002 Paul27 don't worry about hackers too much
16:05 Paul27 The point is that i don't want to give "away" personal infos and/or money for a project that has a big chance of failure
16:06 Paul27 red-002: um why not?
16:06 rubenwardy joined #minetest
16:06 red-002 you are unlikely to be attacked just for hosting a minetest server
16:06 Shara Paul27: Considering how cheap a VPS for a month is, the time I'd need to set you up would be worth more to me than you'd have to pay.
16:07 Shara If you are not willing to invest in your experiment, it might be difficult to find someone else to.
16:07 red-002 btw I think the people running http://minetest.tv/ are willing to host a few servers
16:08 rubenwardy there hasn't been any reported incidents of a server being hacked
16:08 CalebDavis you could even host on a 10 dolar rasberry pi
16:08 rubenwardy DDOS, yes, but no hacking
16:08 red-002 but few rules and mods is hardly a new idea
16:08 Shara red-002: minetest.tv are NOT willing to host for others.
16:09 Paul27 Shara: "the time I'd need to set you up would be worth more to me than you'd have to pay" Can you please rephrase?
16:09 Shara I am the only person other than the owner who has ever been allowed to have a server there.
16:09 red-002 the time you will have to invest in seting up a server is greater then the monetary cost
16:09 Shara Paul27: My time is worth more to me then the amount of money you would need to pay to do this yourself.
16:10 Shara And I don't see why I'd be willing to make that investment of my time, if you aren't willing to invest in your own idea.
16:10 Paul27 Well can't you just say "No, sorry"?
16:11 sofar he's explaining why everyone is saying "No, sorry"
16:11 Shara she*
16:11 Shara And hi sofar :)

16:12 Shara :D
16:13 sofar You know, when you see IRC nicks around long enough you tend to make your own mind up about certain people being either male or female or "whatever"
16:14 sofar it's pretty darn hard to correct that perception after a while
16:14 sofar I want to say photos would help, but that'd be too risky :)
16:15 Shara Just a little :)
16:15 sofar some things can't be left unseen
16:18 rubenwardy I got the impression that Shara was female
16:19 rubenwardy something about the name :P

19:23 yusf[m] Hello! I'm trying to differ between mt_g farming and farming_redo in a third mod. How to do it?
19:24 yusf[m] ^ in code, that is :D
19:24 red-001 check for diffrences in api?
19:25 yusf[m] How? I also figured I'll look for the file corn.lua in farming and if present I know it's farming_redo. But I don't know how?
19:25 yusf[m] I'm new to modding and I only know minetest.get_modpath
19:26 red-001 what are you trying to do anyway?
19:27 red-001 https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/blob/master/game_api.txt
19:27 yusf[m] Make a third mod use the "right" farming mod.
19:28 yusf[m] It seems like there's the global called farming.mod = "redo" in farming_redo. I'll just check for that! :)
19:28 red-001 https://github.com/tenplus1/farming/blob/master/init.lua#L9
