10:07 loggingbot_ joined #minetest-dev
10:07 Topic for #minetest-dev is now Minetest core development and maintenance. Minetest 0.4.17.1 released! Chit-chat goes to #minetest. http://irc.minetest.net/minetest-dev/ http://dev.minetest.net/
10:08 Krock o/
10:09 Krock VanessaE: so it's fixed in 5.0.0?
10:09 VanessaE idk.
10:09 VanessaE I don't use 5.x
10:09 Krock that would help to find out whether a fix already exists
10:09 VanessaE I would have thought someone would have mentioned it in my issue by now....
10:15 Fixer joined #minetest-dev
10:16 VanessaE I'll give it a try though.
10:22 VanessaE yep, still present in 5.x - both wrong param2 on place, and getting a visually identical item on dig.
10:45 Krock okay, thanks for testing
10:46 VanessaE there, I updated my testing.
10:46 VanessaE https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/7675#issuecomment-431569604
10:46 Krock I hope that will help finding & fixing the issue. I'm not a specialist on this topic, sadly
10:47 VanessaE paramat: um...unconfirmed?  *growls loudly*  :(
10:48 IcyDiamond joined #minetest-dev
10:51 calcul0n joined #minetest-dev
10:54 paramat sorry, i should have clarified, because "I'm not sure if it's an engine bug or mod bug"
10:55 jas_ testing should confirm the bug.  where the issue resides is another matter.
10:55 paramat so 'unconfirmed as an engine bug'
10:55 VanessaE I'm reasonably sure it's an engine bug wrt. inheriting colors/itemstack meta.
10:56 paramat a mod error is not a valid engine bug
10:56 paramat ok will change it back
10:57 VanessaE thank you.
10:57 paramat and yes i also avoid hardware colouring stuff, sorry
10:58 VanessaE thankfully, in practice it's not much more than an annoyance, but it could still cause problems for players (especially if their inventory is full, even if the user has a small stack of the node in question)
11:11 VanessaE on a different note:  what's the rationale behind making clear_craft() error-out/crash the server if the specified recipe isn't found?  wouldn't a simple warning be better?
11:15 sys4 joined #minetest-dev
11:16 paramat there usually isn't a rationale :) search for and/or open an issue?
11:18 VanessaE meh
11:22 paramat no fix then :)
11:23 Krock paramat: if param2 placement fails it's an engine bug
11:23 Krock since it's the engine which implements the param2 coloring feature
11:26 paramat ok. i didn't really  think about the issue enough to realise :) afk for noms
11:26 VanessaE paramat: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/6513
11:27 VanessaE THAT is why I don't file issues much anymore.
11:30 ANAND_ joined #minetest-dev
11:30 Krock paramat: FYI: currently all advanced settings dialogues have exactly the same size; but could be changed on demand
11:32 Krock my bad. they really have different heights since I didn't adjust the layout by size, but rather so that it's compact as possible
12:25 paramat joined #minetest-dev
12:36 paramat VanessaE 6513 seems a good idea to me
12:37 VanessaE paramat: it is.  it's the replies to that issue that I was referring to.
12:37 VanessaE ("it is" -> "returning false is")
12:43 paramat sfan's reply is not necessarily implying nothing needs doing, it might just be an observation on the workaround
12:44 VanessaE yes.  offer a workaround instead of a fix?  ahem.
12:46 VanessaE maybe I'm just being crabby, I dunno.  just my usual gripe about misdirection of development efforts (which has only gotten worse as available manpower has clearly fallen-off lately)
12:48 paramat nevermind single bad responses (if it was, dunno). i might try to attend to it :)
12:53 * VanessaE wonders what paramat's noms were ;)
12:56 paramat Krock found a crash you might be able to help with #7803
12:56 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/7803 -- MT crashes when using 'restore defaults' for font_size in advanced settings
