02:39 skibur Ok  Minetest API minetest:register_abm   "chance".  I'm trying to understand this.  I have a chance of 32000.  What does that mean??
02:49 benrob0329 1 in 32000 nodes will have action run on them
03:01 skibur Thanks
03:02 skibur so a chance of 1 will have 0% action?
03:17 awell joined #minetest
03:20 awell left #minetest
03:27 benrob0329 No, a chance of 1 will have 100% action
03:27 benrob0329 because 1 in 1 nodes will have action run on them
03:28 skibur Thanks

09:19 CopenBra[m] So, I'm experiencing tremendous lag when I log into servers with a few mods. I'm talking I send a message in the chat and I see my message show up several minutes later. The same with mining blocks, I mine some stone and they go to my an inventory several ridiculously long minutes later
09:20 CopenBra[m] I have a latency of ~800ms but why does that mean things should take MINUTES to happen in Minetest?
09:20 BuckarooBanzai CopenBra[m] what server? it depends on the individual server and its load/lag...
09:20 CopenBra[m] And if I connect to a vanilla server it's fine, I see chat messages and stuff in my inventory less than a second after talking/mining
09:21 CopenBra[m] I've experienced this lag in pandorabox and mt.nixne.st:25585
09:23 proller joined #minetest
09:24 CopenBra[m] There's a vanilla minetest server at mt.nixne.st:25589, when I visit it I don't experience any lag besides my latency
09:25 CopenBra[m] Sometimes it takes a few seconds for a mined block to appear in my inventory but that's it
09:26 CopenBra[m] But I join pandora or mt.nixne.st:25585 and it's unplayable
09:30 BuckarooBanzai CopenBra[m] is it only inventory lag or client-lag (slow graphics)?
09:31 BuckarooBanzai It does sound like network issues though, do you get frequent timeouts?
09:33 CopenBra[m] Only inventory lag. My framerate isn't 60fps but it's the same in multiplayer as it is singleplayer
09:35 CopenBra[m] No. I can connect to a server 99% of the time if it exists.
09:36 CopenBra[m] I have a ~20mbps bandwidth right now so I think that rules out download speed as the cause of the lag
09:37 CopenBra[m] Upload speed is ~0.4mbps though
09:37 CopenBra[m] Maybe that's it?
09:37 BuckarooBanzai CopenBra[m] i did see something like this before, but it had to do with huge digtron crates in the inventory: any chance it is something like that?
09:38 BuckarooBanzai could be the TX speed, can you test that on another line with the same setup? (PC)
09:38 CopenBra[m] How do I do that?
09:40 BuckarooBanzai CopenBra[m] test it on another internet connection (internet cafe, library, something like that...)
09:42 CopenBra[m] Oh. Unfortunately I don't have immediate access to transportation so that'll have to wait.

10:30 yw05 CopenBra[m]: (Android) maybe switching between WiFi and mobile network would work.
10:32 Ingar something might be hammering your connection. e.g. torrents
10:32 Ingar (they're quite good at killing an assymetric line)
10:34 yw05 Ingar: no, imho my isp appears to block the connection in a very weird way
10:35 yw05 imo they allow you to connect to a server for some time and then they suddenly cut the connection

12:29 Ingar I caught my ISP several tiems killing run-running SSH connections
12:29 Ingar *times
12:30 BuckarooBanzai Ingar: how do you know that, did they actively RST the connection? AFAIK the ssh-protocol allows some delay/connection-loss
12:38 Fusl joined #minetest
12:48 yw05 BuckarooBanzai: it's simply weird that I often timeout from all the servers when I'm at home.

16:08 CopenBra[m] <yw05 "copenhagen bram: (Android) maybe"> That's a good idea! First I'll try logging into a server on my phone using wifi to see if I experience the same problems I do on my laptop. Then I'll try logging into a server via my mobile network
16:27 Ingar BuckarooBanzai: I saw stray RST
16:28 Ingar I also use ssh keepalive
16:32 Zeth_ So...Minetest with irrlicht 1.9 when?

19:40 CopenBra[m] hello
19:47 Krock hi
20:06 CopenBra[m] I guess I just need internet that doesn't have so much latency huh
20:07 Krock indeed, your answer arrived 9 minutes late

20:44 CopenBra[m] what do you mean?
20:44 CopenBra[m] oh
20:44 CopenBra[m] that's not necessarily lazy that's also me being afk somtimes
20:46 Krock your connection is dangerously slow now. already 37 minutes latency
20:56 CopenBra[m] lmao
20:57 CopenBra[m] not everyone can afford your fancy internet with only 2 minutes of latency
20:57 nepugia Only a ping of 1000 * 2 * 60 ms :D
21:01 CopenBra[m] damn, i bet his computer is powered by mesecons
21:01 nepugia Oh god
21:01 * nepugia hides
21:02 cdde joined #minetest
21:06 * CopenBra[m] digs a trench around nepugia while they are afk and fills it with lava
21:06 nepugia I discovered that playing with damage off is much more fun... the only thing that damages you is something like drowning anyway, but swimming without drowning is much more fun
21:09 Daisae nepugia: potions can make you able to swim for a while underwater without drowning. and there is a submarine mod.  I have not tried them yet.
21:10 nepugia potions?
21:10 Daisae https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&amp;t=10222
21:10 nepugia oh, a mod
21:11 nepugia makes more sense to just turn off the game mechanic if it isnt fun imo
21:11 CopenBra[m] nepugia: what are your favorite mods?
21:12 CopenBra[m] you don't use mods?
21:12 nepugia CopenBra[m]: I don't think i use any mods that i haven't written myself, apart from minetest_game anyhow, so can't really answer that
21:12 CopenBra[m] what mods have you written?
21:14 nepugia for minetest only this one, but it isnt really 'stable': https://git.gryphno.de/SyrupThinker/minetest-mod-sparktech
21:14 nepugia (Couldn't figure out how to install that other technic mod, so wrote a bit on an own one with syrupthinker)
21:16 CopenBra[m] if you couldn't figure out how to install technic, how do you install your own mod?
21:16 CopenBra[m] (If I read you correctly)
21:16 nepugia cd $minetestinstall/mods; git clone mymod
21:18 CopenBra[m] why can't you install technic like that?
21:19 nepugia don't remember, don't think i figured out where their repo was
21:20 Krock minetest-mods/technic
21:21 CopenBra[m] https://github.com/minetest-mods/technic
21:21 CopenBra[m] How do I create a minetest mod?
21:21 nepugia is that a trick question?
21:22 Krock copypasta another mod. done
21:23 Krock here's the book: https://rubenwardy.com/minetest_modding_book/en/index.html
21:23 Krock Krock: *pastes link*
21:23 Krock rubenwardy: *TRIGGERED*
21:25 Krock CopenBra[m]: you can also go the boring & complicated way by looking up all functions on lua_api.txt and trying to put together somethnig that works, based on other mods
21:25 Krock kinda like engineering Frankenstein
21:25 nepugia CopenBra[m]: could also just take something like my mod and edit it until it no longer works
21:25 nepugia really, reading mods and editing them to see the effects is probably the best way to get started
21:29 CopenBra[m] hmm
21:30 CopenBra[m] are there any mods that make cobblestone explode when exposed to fire or lava?
21:30 nepugia Not that i know of, but the tnt mod might be editable to achieve that effect
21:33 Krock tnt does that, since it can be ignited by fire
21:36 CopenBra[m] hmm
21:36 Daisae I dislike how TNT sometimes makes lava now.
21:36 CopenBra[m] but it does it instantly
21:37 CopenBra[m] I was thinking more of a gradual effect, a cobblestone block gets hotter as it sits next to a fire or lava, as it gets hotter it starts glowing, when it gets hot enough it explodes
21:37 galaxie joined #minetest
21:41 nepugia possible sure, making animations on block textures is hugely annoying in minetest though

22:12 nepugia is the matrix bridge broken?
22:13 nepugia you seam to be talking to yourself on my end
22:15 CopenBra[m] no, I can hear you
22:15 CopenBra[m] just announcing to everybody that i'm playing mineclone 2
22:16 nepugia well, to whom did you say thanks?
22:35 CopenBra[m] to Wuzzy for giving us such a wonderful thing
22:37 Wuzzy ^^
22:41 CopenBra[m] Wuzzy: Why is eating instantaneous, why can't work like it does in minecraft where you have to hold right click long enough to eat a food?
22:42 nepugia same reason that my mod incinerates pickaxes instead of letting you mine furnaces i assume
22:44 * CopenBra[m] follows a minecraft tutorial in mineclone2
