10:56 weakman55 Hello, I was wondering how hard it is to modify how the player works/"looks"? Specifically, I would like to at least make the player fit inside just one "block" (I think it's called node?) and also to only move in "block" increments
10:58 weakman55 The far goal is to make a coding game where the player is a programmable bot, and players can modify the behaviour of their "bot" by specifying their own control schemes and/or GUI (Information from the world will be raw data streams from sensors which will then have to be interpreted through code and displayed likewise through code)
11:00 weakman55 (Game design wise a basic control scheme and GUI would ideally be provided so that new players can familiarize themselves with the overall game before diving into modifying their own "environment" (This does feel a bit off topic sorry =P))
11:01 weakman55 Please mention me if you answer btw, I will be doing other stuff meanwhile =P
11:01 sfan5 the collisionbox and be changed to make the player fit anywhere you want
11:01 sfan5 you can disable client-side movement and create a GUI that the player is forced to use to move anywhere
11:02 sfan5 the engine is not really intended to be used like this, but it's possible with the APIs it gives you
11:02 weakman55 And the avatar graphics likewise then? (for multiplayer)
11:02 sfan5 you can replace the player with any flat texture or mesh you'd like
11:03 Taoki joined #minetest
11:03 weakman55 Yeah, I figured it might be a long shot, but it's the easiest way to test mechanics and such since I don't really have any other voxel engine on hand =P
11:04 atroxi joined #minetest
11:05 weakman55 But cool, now I know it is at least in theory possible, any pointers to where I can look for reference, or should I just start from the "beginning" (I will at least have to learn the basics of Minetest ofc =P  )
11:05 sfan5 there's uhh
11:05 sfan5 !book
11:05 MinetestBot sfan5: Minetest Modding Book - https://rubenwardy.com/minetest_modding_book/
11:05 sfan5 you will have to look at the specific sections that apply to your usecase
11:06 weakman55 Alright, thanks, I will dig around and poke here if I have more specific questions, this was as mentioned to just check that it was at all possible
11:07 sfan5 oh and the actual reference:
11:07 sfan5 !api
11:07 MinetestBot Someone thinks you should read the API docs, please go to: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/lua_api.txt
11:11 weakman55 (Y)
11:12 weakman55 That page should be renamed lua_api.md so that GitHub shows the page formatted

15:44 rootyjr Does the the ubuntu ppa package minetest provide minetest server? The only version of minetest server I can find is some 4.17 version in the ubuntu's universe repo.
15:47 rootyjr Wait, I figured it out there's an article online explaining it.

17:32 Andrey01 hello, do particlespawners  that attached to objects change their positions depending to the object`s yaw?
17:32 Andrey01 it says ithey change in the lua_api.txt, but indeed it doesn`t
17:32 Andrey01 *they
17:33 DS-minetest I think, there is an issue about this
17:34 Andrey01 they stay at the same position that is defined in the particlespawner table disregarding the yaw change of the object
17:35 Andrey01 strangely...
17:35 DS-minetest see #8363
17:35 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/8363 -- Attached particle spawners no longer rotate with object
