03:14 hmmmm     is anybody around??
03:56 paramat   yeah
07:20 paramat   hmmmm i'm starting work on adding the optional ability to place decos on water, i assume it's best to implement this using the 'decoration flags'?
07:21 hmmmm     yeah, sounds good
07:22 paramat   currently the flags are only used for schematic decos, i hope they can apply to simple decos too, i think so
07:23 hmmmm     maybe liquid_surface or something
07:23 hmmmm     which indicates that, for any decoration, treat the first liquid encountered as the surface
07:23 paramat   (ah yes u32 flags is part of class Decoration)
07:23 paramat   yes agreed
07:24 hmmmm     keep in mind that flags are just an optimized array of booleans
07:24 hmmmm     wherever you'd write a boolean, consider using flags
07:24 paramat   yeah
07:25 paramat   currently waterlilies and papyrus in mgv5/v7 make a mess if water level is changed
10:36 paramat   #3274
10:36 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/3274 -- Decoration API: Add flag for placement on liquid surface by paramat
12:21 paramat   PilzAdam how do you feel about game#681 now?
12:21 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/issues/681 -- Fire: Add eternal flame node for creative and mod use by paramat
12:23 PilzAdam  it should ignite flammable stuff
12:24 paramat   yes i've made that change now
12:26 paramat   and tested
12:29 paramat   sfan5 any comments?
12:30 VanessaE  wait
12:30 sfan5     idk
12:30 VanessaE  I thought that was supposed to be like "fake" fire>
12:31 PilzAdam  VanessaE, fake fire can be done by mods
12:31 VanessaE  I know.
12:31 VanessaE  paramat and I talked about this previously.
12:31 PilzAdam  permanent fire should be done in game, since it requires the same ABMs
12:32 paramat   yeah the extinguishing abm acts on this 'eternal flame' too
13:05 VanessaE  well in any case I disagree with making it catch other things on fire.
13:07 paramat   perhaps 2 new nodes, one an igniter, one not
13:12 VanessaE  that might be okay.
