16:12 kahrl I'm for merging #935
16:12 kahrl proller: what do you think? (it touches the weather abms)
16:19 Ritchie__ joined #minetest-dev
16:24 proller +1
16:25 proller merge it
16:44 kahrl I'll remove the alias in minetest_game as well

18:09 chlue Hello then potentially long running abm code is executed once per second in the same loop that runs 30 times per second and handles the on step code. Woudn't it make more sense to distribute the abm over 30 calls or is this not feasible? (Simple approach divide number of active blocks by 30 and handle this fraction every time)

22:35 PilzAdam I think we should add a flag to the in-game serverlist whether the server has a stable or dev version
22:35 PilzAdam or maybe the whole version string if there is enough space
22:38 VanessaE no one will look at it
22:38 VanessaE but it's a good idea nonetheless
22:39 PilzAdam see the discussion in #minetest for background info
22:39 VanessaE server descriptions were supposed to be shown to the right of the list in the empty space above the name/password.  That would have at least given some space for such thigs.
22:40 PilzAdam I still think there should be a "More..." button that opens a new window which shows more info about the server
22:40 PilzAdam and the main list contains only name and number of players
22:44 Naked it could contain mod list, game type, game world name, owner name, name of admins if possible, server website, etc. bunch of stuff can be added to More
22:46 VanessaE or at least, whatever the server owner choses to put there
22:46 salamanderrake joined #minetest-dev
22:47 VanessaE perhaps the client could scrape a post for info if given a forum.minetest.net address for the server_url
22:48 VanessaE probably not though
22:48 PilzAdam there is currently a lot of stuff in the server announce that isnt used by the in-game list currently
22:48 PilzAdam all this can go into the "more screen"
22:49 VanessaE true
22:49 VanessaE still, at least display the contents of server_description in that empty space, and then a [More...] button below it.
22:58 kahrl am I missing something? I see the server description
22:59 PilzAdam kahrl, but not the version
22:59 VanessaE where?
22:59 VanessaE screenshot?
22:59 PilzAdam the description is at the top right
22:59 VanessaE oh wait, I'm looking at the favorites list
22:59 VanessaE not the public one
22:59 VanessaE perhaps those fields should be cached and displayed locally
22:59 kahrl indeed, it isn't recorded in favoriteservers.txt
23:00 kahrl that format is kind of non-extensible though
23:01 VanessaE too bad.
23:03 kahrl well... I guess [server2] instead of [server] could indicate an extended record
23:04 kahrl <proller> use json
23:06 proller i tried make favorites in json, but PilzAdam.......
23:06 PilzAdam everyone likes to modify json by hand, especially newbies
23:06 proller nobody exept you modify favorites by hand
23:07 * pitriss modified favorites by hand
23:08 Exio4 json is ugly
23:14 kahrl actually, I spoke too soon, description is recorded in favorites
23:14 kahrl VanessaE: I wonder why it doesn't show for you
23:14 kahrl maybe because you typed in the address by hand
23:15 PilzAdam joined #minetest-dev
23:19 VanessaE kahrl: well in the public list the descriptions work fine, but in the favorites list, there are none at all.  of course, since I was looking at the wrong list, my point is moot :)
