08:34 Zughy       hey there Rocket Jump guy :D
10:05 powi        Hi there, I have an issue trying to make a translation for a mod. I'm not able to make the translation work. Can anyone help ? Here's the repo of the mod (with locale and all) : https://github.com/FirePowi/dice
10:07 NetherEran  looks like you didn't specify the textdomain in the translation file
10:08 NetherEran  try adding `# textdomain:dice` as the first line
10:08 powi        Thanks !!
10:11 powi        Oh yes it works :3

14:52 ena         hi! does anyone know how to get the coordinates of the spawn point? thanks :)
14:53 heavygale   ingame or for a mod?
14:53 heavygale   ingame command: /set static_spawnpoint
14:54 heavygale   requires the “server” privilege
14:54 sfan5       if you do not have a static spawnpoint set then the spawnpoint is not constant
14:54 ANAND       ^
14:55 heavygale   i none is set, isn't is then 0,0,0 ?
14:56 nephele_    No, i tried that, and i keep spawning in a rock :D
14:56 ena         heavygale: ingame
14:56 ena         and, I think the spawnpoint is constant even if I didn't define it?
14:57 ena         at least if I die or if other players join they'll spawn at the same place
14:57 nephele_    sfan5, anyway to ask the engine to calculate a spawnpoint for you?
14:58 sfan5       the engine does that when you respawn, but I don't think you can ask for it
14:58 ena         alternatively is there a "teleport to spawn" command?
14:58 nephele_    sfan5, :/, i don't think i can ask it to respawn either
14:59 ena         i'm setting up a new local server and would like to build something at spawn, but I'm not sure which tile is the spawn point precisely
14:59 nephele_    the buildin /kill command will just tell you that dmg is disabled if you don't have it on (personally i dont see how those are related)
14:59 nephele_    ena, then use set static spawnpoint as suggested above
15:00 sfan5       nephele_: yeah
15:00 ena         but this will modify the spawning point, right?
15:00 sfan5       nephele_: well if damage is disable, the player obviously can't die
15:00 nephele_    sfan5, i don't see why tbh
15:01 nephele_    respawning and getting killed is to me two destinct points
15:01 heavygale   https://wiki.minetest.net/Server_commands#Server-related
15:01 sfan5       ena: it will yes, if you want to keep something to the original spawn point I'd suggest joining with a new name to determine where it is and setting the static point there
15:01 heavygale   /set only changes it if you give a new value too
15:01 sfan5       nephele_: I didn't say "the player can't respawn", I didn't say "the player can't die"
15:01 sfan5       eh
15:01 sfan5       second "didn't" -> "did"
15:02 nephele_    well i did ask about respaning above, so i assumed you were responding to that :)
15:07 ena         @sfan5 I did just that :)  well I didn't know changing the name was enough so I did it with another computer >.<
16:44 juangh      hi there guys...i was looking the way to put my first access users in an specific coordinates...
16:44 juangh      i miss the var for server
16:44 juangh      someone can help me to remember?
16:44 juangh      setspawn?
16:44 juangh      static_spawnpoint?
16:45 Krock       yes. https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/builtin/settingtypes.txt#L1125-L1126
16:46 juangh      accessing
16:47 Krock       reading. please wait...
16:48 juangh      excelent...Krock...yes, I read, but i doesn't see the way to put the coords...now yes...
16:48 juangh      Krock, thanks!
16:48 Krock       !next
16:48 MinetestBot Another satisfied customer. Next!
16:56 orbea       with minetest.get_objects_inside_radius(pos, radius), would a radius of 5 be 5 nodes in any direction from the pos?
16:57 sfan5       yes
16:57 orbea       thanks
16:58 sfan5       a directional radius would be stupid if you couldn't control the direction
17:17 deltanedas  im wondering about 2 things:
17:18 deltanedas  - can you add metadata to players
17:18 deltanedas  - can you register an on_punchobject function when a player punches a non player object?
17:20 Krock       deltanedas: 1st is done, 2nd needs implementation for the punched entity
17:20 deltanedas  so can i do it for all entities
17:21 deltanedas  or only entities i specifically tell to call callbacks
17:22 deltanedas  ill look at some mob api mods
17:22 deltanedas  maybe they have some callback tables i can use
18:09 powi        Hi there, how to escape the "=" in stringlines in the translation files (using minetest.get_translator(textdomain)) ?
18:10 Krock       @= ?
18:10 powi        Do I have to put in both in the file and in the S function ? (S = minetest.get_translator(textdomain))
18:12 NetherEran  I think only in the file
18:12 powi        Okay, I'll try it :)
18:13 Krock       NetherEran: thought wrong
18:13 Krock       the text within S() must have an identical string in the translation file
18:13 powi        Well it worked
18:13 Krock       @n escapes \n, thus I thought @=  would do the same
18:14 NetherEran  @= as escape works
18:15 powi        S("A function f(x,y,z), e.g. 'x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - 100'. A node will be set at (x,y,z) if f(x,y,z)=0. Can also use inequalities, e.g. 'x^2 + y^2 <= 100'.")
18:16 powi        A function f(x,y,z), e.g. 'x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - 100'. A node will be set at (x,y,z) if f(x,y,z)@=0. Can also use inequalities, e.g. 'x^2 + y^2 <@= 100'.=Une fonction f(x,y,z), par exemple : « x² + y² + z² - 100 ». Un block sera positionné à (x,y,z) si f(x,y,z) @= 0. Peut aussi être une inéquation, par exemple : « x² + y² <@= 100 ».
18:16 powi        This worked fine
18:16 Krock       would look much better using a paste service, but well nice if it works :)
18:16 NetherEran  appearently the escapes get resolved before the strings are matched
18:16 powi        Oh yep, totally forgot, sry
18:17 Krock       after two years I still don't know where the automatic translation update script is..
18:17 Krock       Wuzzy: help? ^
18:18 Wuzzy       util/updatepo.sh
18:18 Krock       the other for client translations
18:18 Wuzzy       oh you meant that one
18:18 Krock       originally #6325
18:18 ShadowBot   https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/6325 -- Add scripts to find and update translations. by Ekdohibs
18:18 Wuzzy       wtf its still not merged yet? boo!
18:18 Wuzzy       there are multiple update scripts, none of them official
18:18 Krock       it's closed...
18:19 Krock       explains why I can't remember the location then. thanks for the information
18:19 Wuzzy       it has been shut down by paramat. nice, thank you ?

20:04 xachman     Hey guys do you have to turn on TNT on your server?
20:04 sfan5       you do have to yes
20:04 xachman     whats the option and where?
20:04 sfan5       enable_tnt = true in minetest.conf
20:05 xachman     Ok lets see if my kids destroy the entire world
20:05 Powi        And this is a PR for mathplot ! Here I come with my PR for mathplot :3 https://github.com/kyleclaassen/minetest_mathplot/pull/21 :)

20:09 Zughy       Hey guys, if anyone would like to contribute with their opinions about MT for now, it'd be great: https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=24631
20:10 Zughy       nobody asked me to do it, but I think it's a good thing..? I'm also converting the whole in a txt file with a sort of TL;DR for mods if they will ever have a look at it
20:14 _Zaizen_    Hi everyone I'm having a bit of a problem with minetest and mods. I'm trying to load signss_lib wich depends only on default and every time I enable it and save it disables it when I exit the setting tab. This problem doesn't persist on mods wich don't have dependencies
20:20 sfan5       do you have signs_lib installed twice for some reason?
20:22 _Zaizen_    I have it in another modpack.
20:27 sfan5       the "automatically disables" is a bug in the menu but you should really just have it once
20:28 _Zaizen_    I've tried many times and also downloaded again minetest. Same problem every time.
20:28 _Zaizen_    Wihout the other modpack it works
20:29 sfan5       delete one copy of signs_lib
20:29 _Zaizen_    Yep without the other modpack it works. I guess I will have to load the modpack I want everytime in the mods folder :/
20:55 MarwolTuk   lua-api question: is there a way to get a list of all registered nodes with a certain group and rating? I found ndef->getIds() in the engine but this dosn't seem to be exposed into lua.
20:57 sfan5       for name, def in pairs(minetest.registered_nodes) do if def.group.whatever == 2 then print(name) end end
20:58 MarwolTuk   Okay. So nothing better than iterating over all registered nodes. Thanks.
20:58 sfan5       you can cache the result if there are performance concerns
21:15 MarwolTuk   I'm not as deep into minetest yet to tell which parts are performance-relevant but I think on node placement (on_construct) it shouldn't be that problem since it's not called that often.
21:51 cheapie     So someone put up a "railroad crossing when wet" sign... of course, I had to make it actually work: https://cheapiesystems.com/media/rrxing-when-wet.webm
21:52 GreenXenith rofl that's great
21:54 a1fa        so i am installing a dedicated server for my kids.. any tips?
22:03 a1fa        how do you specify what game to load
22:03 a1fa        where is the game stored by default
22:03 a1fa        /usr/lib/minetest?
22:04 sfan5       /usr/share/minetest/games/minetest_game usually
22:04 sfan5       you can specify one using the --gameid parameter
22:04 sfan5       a gameid that is, not the path
22:07 a1fa        i think they want the mineclone2
22:07 a1fa        do i just dump it in there
22:08 sfan5       a1fa: extract it there yes
22:11 a1fa        sfan5: how do you generate the world now?
22:12 sfan5       the world will be generated as you play
22:12 a1fa        hm
22:12 a1fa        game is crashing :(
22:12 sfan5       if you want a folder, just start minetestserver and it will create one
22:12 a1fa        the game loads, and then crashes
22:13 sfan5       and does it print an error message?
22:13 a1fa        https://pastebin.com/raw/9TDvh4B5
22:14 sfan5       is the version of minetest you are running perhaps too old for mineclone2?
22:14 a1fa        5.1.1
22:14 a1fa        minetestserver --version
22:14 a1fa        Minetest 5.1.1 (Linux)
22:15 sfan5       did you download a version of mineclone that is compatible with 5.1.1?
22:15 sfan5       because if you just grabbed the newest one it will only run on 5.2
22:15 a1fa        ah
22:15 a1fa        i grabbed 0.6.4
22:15 a1fa        err 0.64.0
22:16 a1fa        i see the errors in my ways
22:16 a1fa        thank
22:16 a1fa        yo
22:17 sfan5       most mods and games are compatible with somewhat older versions even if you grab the latest one
22:17 sfan5       Mineclone2 is an exception to this
22:19 a1fa        kids will be happy
22:20 a1fa        they had bunch of local worlds between their laptops, but they want their friends to play too
22:21 a1fa        can you generate a new world through the console?
22:21 sfan5       delete the old one, restart minetest, there will be a new (different) one
22:22 a1fa        yep did that a few times
22:22 a1fa        is there a way to do w/o ssh access
22:22 sfan5       oh
22:22 sfan5       there isn't
