11:38 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> 5.4.0 AppImage, I can't move camera with touchpad while walking. Has this been reported?
11:38 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> Or is it maybe a setting on the laptop I need to change?
11:38 MTDiscord <josiah_wi> False alarm, looks like it's the latter.

20:40 Extex I've run into a problem. In my code I've made it so that when a player holds a tool and right-clicks a node it will do something. So I used on_rightclick in the node's definition, but when the player rightclicks with another node (to place it on the node) it doesn't place.
20:40 Extex There is a way around this however
20:41 Extex Just check the itemstack and if it's a node place it. But with this method it won't register as a player that's placing it
20:43 Extex So maybe put it in the tool's on_place. But it's checking for a tool group for compatibility (e.g. rightclick with a tool with crumbly caps makes gravel into a slab) so it'd need to be put into every single tool
20:44 Extex And minetest.register_on_placenode only works for nodes (to my knowledge)
20:45 sfan5 defining on_rightclick on a node will mark it as "rightclickable" which prevents normal placing from taking place on the client
20:46 sfan5 though that's not necessarily a problem here
20:46 sfan5 why not call minetest.item_place in on_rightclick?
20:50 specing joined #minetest-dev
20:59 Extex Well yes but wouldn't that break any node's on_place?
20:59 Extex Well not run on_place I mean
21:06 Extex joined #minetest-dev
21:14 sfan5 you mean other tools' on_place? call it manually first
21:14 sfan5 oh also item_place will call on_rightclick so go directly for minetest.item_place_node
21:49 Extex sfan5: oh thank you, I finally got it working
23:24 Alias joined #minetest-dev
