01:12 kahrl        is there a way to add a function to both in-game lua and mainmenu lua?
01:12 kahrl        without duplicating code in guiLuaApi.cpp and script/lua_api/something?
01:32 Exio4        wait for sapier
01:32 Exio4        :P
01:35 Tesseract    kahrl: IMO the mainmenu should have the entire interface, although some functions wouldn't work. (like set_node) Or at least not be completely seperated.

11:39 PilzAdam     I originally wanted to ask sapier about that but he doesnt seem to be arround, so I guess its better to merge it now
11:48 sfan5        seems fine
14:09 pitriss      Hi, please can anybody tell me why is my client crashing when I enter my land on landrush server? Info from debug.txt: http://pastebin.com/uGRf2HZY
14:14 PilzAdam     seems like a mod sets param2 to something >23 of facedir nodes
14:18 pitriss      PilzAdam: so it is server issue?
14:18 PilzAdam     I wonder why the client intentionally crashes in this case
14:19 PilzAdam     pitriss, yes
14:19 pitriss      hmm okay.. But yes, server should't crash client wit errorneous data
14:23 celeron55    that should have been fixed a long time ago
14:24 celeron55    i guess RBA is slacking off
14:24 celeron55    anyone is free to make it read >23 as 0
14:24 celeron55    because that's what it should do
14:24 pitriss      celeron55: but this happened on 2 day old build
14:24 PilzAdam     I can do that
14:24 celeron55    pitriss: yes it's broken still
14:25 pitriss      I hope it will be fixed soon:)
14:27 PilzAdam     done
14:29 pitriss      ohh.. already pushed into git?
14:29 PilzAdam     yes
14:30 pitriss      PilzAdam: thank you very much..:)
16:25 rubenwardy   Can I add a link to https://forum.minetest.net/mmdb/ on the website?
16:25 PilzAdam     no, its in beta
16:25 rubenwardy   ok
17:24 nore_        looking at the last post in BlockMen's torch mod, it looks l
17:25 nore_        ike more and more mods would benefit from the can_interact pull request
17:25 nore_        so I wonder why it is not merged yet
17:26 sfan5        because it would make sense having that for entities too
17:27 nore_        what do you mean, for entities?
17:28 sfan5        you can interact with entities too
17:28 sfan5        and that function doesn't call can_interact
17:37 nore_        do you know if  client-side mods will be doable one day
17:37 nore_        ?
17:37 iqualfragile nore_: doable is not the problem
17:37 iqualfragile security is
17:38 PilzAdam     and the API has to be well designed
17:38 sfan5        for client side mods we could add a really restricted environment
17:38 iqualfragile and then there is a bug in the lua rte and we have a problem^^
17:39 nore_        client-side mods could have no io
17:40 nore_        that could be enough
17:40 sfan5        nah
17:40 sfan5        maybe still a way of saving things to minetest.conf
17:40 sfan5        and a way to save/read files in a specific dir
17:41 nore_        setting_set ans setting_get, and engine functions
17:41 nore_        so one could restrict mods
17:41 sfan5        define engine functions
17:42 nore_        io.open, etc, c hecking the path could work
17:43 sfan5        but we need to run realpath on it before and then see if its still in the restricted dir
17:44 sfan5        this way we can allow "foo/bar/../abc"
17:45 kahrl        wait what is the scope of these client side mods
17:45 kahrl        why should I allow a random server to change my minetest.conf?
17:45 iqualfragile yes, this is a better question to ask
17:45 PilzAdam     we dont need to write it to the file
17:46 sfan5        thinking about it.. why would a client side mod even need to save any data?
17:46 sfan5        maybe client side settings..
17:47 iqualfragile what should a client side mod even do?
17:47 PilzAdam     prediction
17:47 PilzAdam     and handle graphical stuff like HUD
17:49 iqualfragile i think that prediction should be done by the engine
17:50 PilzAdam     you want to hardcode doors, potions and other stuff?
17:52 iqualfragile nope
17:52 iqualfragile but maybee there is a better solution
18:05 celeron55    also triggering of sounds and such
18:05 celeron55    anything that needs to be really responsive
21:34 harrison     at github, which folder is the source code in? i don't want to clone the whole repo just to find one module.
21:34 PilzAdam     src/
21:34 harrison     someone asked about my own noise code which i stole/ported from minetest
21:34 harrison     thx
21:35 harrison     do you remember where the noise functions are?
21:35 Tesseract    harrison: noise.cpp/h?
21:36 harrison     boy, was that question pointless
21:36 harrison     i apologize
21:36 harrison     did you see the use i made of it?
21:37 harrison     http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbwAuhfz6vU
21:39 VanessaE     interesting
21:42 harrison     You, VanessaE, are notoriously difficult to interest so thank you.
21:42 proller      like math mapgen 8)
23:15 kahrl        should the config setting main_menu_script be documented or removed?
23:16 kahrl        ^ btw: settings like this are another reason to not let the server modify my minetest.conf :P
23:16 PilzAdam     documented, I guess its there for a reason
23:17 kahrl        the reason might be "used by sapier while developing"
23:17 PilzAdam     the whole point of the Lua menu was to make it configure for normal people
23:17 kahrl        well, true
23:18 PilzAdam     eh, "normal" as in "not core dev"
23:18 kahrl        hehe
