00:04 sagax hi all!
00:05 sagax how much height can i safely fall into the water?
00:13 Cornelia joined #minetest
00:19 NathanS21 kinda depends on how deep the water is.
00:22 sagax -330
00:22 sagax 330-350
00:23 Ruslan1 joined #minetest
00:25 NathanS21 I would be surprised if you could fall that far and not take damage.
00:25 NathanS21 It might not kill you, but I'm not even sure of that.
00:28 sagax ok, i will be check it

08:38 ShadowNinja joined #minetest
08:43 nepugia ANAND: the stuff in ./games
08:45 tomraceror nah
08:45 tomraceror i think it means in which mod ur are,like creative or survival
08:45 tomraceror ingame
08:47 VanessaE well normally it just means creative or survival, in a minecraft sense, as far as I know.  for that, soft-depend on "creative" in your mod, then use `creative.is_enabled_for(name)`
08:47 VanessaE (name is the player name)
08:48 ANAND nepugia: You want to know the name of the (sub-)game?
08:48 VanessaE or you could check the creative-mode flag, I forget which it is, and for the presence of that mod
08:48 VanessaE ANAND: s/\(sub-\)//
08:49 ANAND :)
08:49 VanessaE apparently, they don't call 'em subgames at all anymore :P
08:50 ANAND Most still consider Minetest to be a game, and calling games games causes confusion :P
08:50 VanessaE *shrug*
08:50 ANAND But calling games sub-games pisses rw off. So I say (sub-)games.
08:50 nepugia i borrowed the term gamemode because some people refuse to acknowledge that the term subgame exists or could be acurate for anything :)
08:50 VanessaE heh
08:51 ANAND lol
08:51 nepugia i mean like mtg, minimal etc.
08:52 Ingar what's in a name
08:52 VanessaE well, there's an n, an m, an e and two a's...
08:52 * VanessaE hides
08:53 nepugia two a's?
08:53 VanessaE well, he said "a name".
08:53 Ingar naming things is not minecraft strongest point ;)
08:53 Ingar erm
08:53 VanessaE there are two a's in that phrase. :)
08:53 Ingar minetest's :p
08:53 Ingar need more coffees, sry :)
08:54 nepugia no ammount of coffee will turn minecraft into minetest
08:54 VanessaE heh
08:54 Ingar fortunately
08:54 Ingar I'd need to add a few GB of RAM to my server

09:20 VanessaE +++54777
09:30 VanessaE oops
09:30 VanessaE my dog says hi.
09:37 nepugia so... is there an api call or not? :P
09:37 nepugia want to have a nice way to determine which compatibility to a gamemode to invoke in muh mod
09:38 nepugia (if it already has the ores i need i don't need to invoke one for that for instance)
09:38 VanessaE [10-27 04:47] <VanessaE> well normally it just means creative or survival, in a minecraft sense, as far as I know.  for that, soft-depend on "creative" in your mod, then use `creative.is_enabled_for(name)`
09:39 VanessaE [10-27 04:48] <VanessaE> or you could check the creative-mode flag, I forget which it is, and for the presence of that mod
09:39 VanessaE you'd use the latter if the whole mod needs to act differently, and the former if it just needs to affect user actions.
09:41 nepugia VanessaE: if you would have read my response to that you could have skipped reposting that
09:42 * VanessaE shrugs
09:42 nepugia I don't really care what minecraft does really
09:42 VanessaE "game mode" simply has no meaning in minetest.
09:42 nepugia gamemode i took from the garrys mod teminology
09:42 nepugia where it is basically the same as a subgame... but it isnt called subgame
09:42 nepugia also >the stuff in ./games
09:43 nepugia is a pretty definitive description me thinkg
09:43 VanessaE nope.
09:43 ANAND I don't think that's possible yet, nepugia
09:44 ANAND But don't take my word for it, I'm not the most well-versed with the API around here :)
09:44 ANAND There's only minetest.get_current_modname
09:44 nepugia How come that Grand theft auto V mods run client and serverside ... but not minetest ones? :)
09:44 ANAND But it's recommended to check for the individual mods themselves, instead of the name of the (sub-)game.
09:45 ANAND We ain't rockstars, that's why :D
09:45 nepugia hah
09:46 nepugia recomended by whom? :P
09:54 nepugia That recomendation makes no sense anyhow
09:54 nepugia I dont care about third party mods, i cant and wont support them

11:15 Fixer joined #minetest
11:24 HDMI_STECKDOSE joined #minetest
11:26 ANAND nepugia: What I meant is that it's recommended to check for individual features instead of the name of the game
11:27 ANAND e.g. if you want to check for farming, you could directly check for farming
11:27 ANAND This is better than checking for a game, because many games try to mimic MTG's mod architecture, to be compatible with most of the stand-alone mods out there.

11:58 nepugia I disagree with your assesment that it is better
11:58 nepugia that won't allow me to determine whether a subgame has worldgen or items i need

13:19 fighter_fish Does the world edit modpack not work for anyone? I find it strange that it's complaining about identifier errors.
13:20 sfan5 works for me
13:21 Krock fighter_fish: install 5.1.0, clean clone of WE and post the errors to an online paste service if it still does not work
13:34 fighter_fish alright thanks
13:39 Krock !next
13:39 MinetestBot Another satisfied customer. Next!
13:40 nepugia so i can get my satisfaction
