12:11 MisterE[m] That was a temporary client, they would not have seen your answer :|
12:11 erle logs exist
12:13 MisterE[m] Which, if they were aware of, they would have just asked their question
12:23 erle MisterE[m] you are right and i feel stupid
12:40 MisterE[m] :( sorry

14:26 MTDiscord <Jordach> erle, get a load of this - i solved pregeneration with realtime generation
14:26 MTDiscord <Jordach> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/747163566800633906/968880780514328686/unknown.png
14:27 erle wow nice, tell
14:27 erle do you have waterfalls btw
14:27 erle i hope you have waterfalls
14:27 MTDiscord <Jordach> yes
14:28 MTDiscord <Jordach> the naturally occur at points
14:28 erle noice
14:28 erle when a river is projected on a cliff?
14:28 MTDiscord <Jordach> the algo that blends terrain also sometimes blends the river
14:28 erle blends?
14:28 MTDiscord <Jordach> there are weird cases that carve straight through geological features
14:28 erle is all water in your world river water?
14:28 MTDiscord <Jordach> there are occeans
14:28 erle sounds neat, but have screenshots?
14:31 MTDiscord <Jordach> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/747163566800633906/968882134532104222/unknown.png

14:35 MTDiscord <Jordach> there's still other bugs to fix like perfectly straight rivers that tend towards infinity
14:35 MTDiscord <Jordach> but it blends very nicely
14:35 MTDiscord <Jordach> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/747163566800633906/968883191484149800/unknown.png
14:36 MTDiscord <Jordach> (ie, those triangles have a geometry gradient that divides by 0)
15:42 Zughy[m] how can be #10136 both a feature request and an unconfirmed bug? Also, is it still a thing? Isn't that a little bit too generic?
15:42 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/10136 -- Jumping in 5.3.0 feels different than previous versions
15:43 Zughy[m] sorry wrong one
15:43 Zughy[m] #10316
15:43 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/10316 -- Slow loading times
15:48 erle Zughy[m] this is probably several issues that can be fixed. it can not be a feature, since it is non-functional.
15:53 Zughy[m] Bug confirmed, #10769
15:53 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/10769 -- Registering colon (":") as a node name causes permanent map breakage.
15:55 Zughy[m] uhm, can I have labelling rights? Mostly for closing "possible close" issues (and PRs) with no updates after X time, and to check a few unconfirmed bugs
15:58 Zughy[m] I'm basically asking to be a vacuum, I don't want to label every new issue, I don't even know if I can
15:59 Zughy[m] and it'd make more sense if core devs did, as they should check every new issue no matter what
16:03 Zughy[m] also, pretty trivial, but this needs some core dev take: #11343 (next meeting?)
16:03 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/11343 -- falling blocks don't stop falling at world border
16:04 erle Zughy[m] loading time for assets seems to be CPU-bound as far as I can see – artificially giving minetest less resources linearly slows loading time.
16:04 erle less CPU resources, that is
16:04 erle like, give it half as much CPU, it takes twice as much time
16:05 erle Zughy[m] #11343 does not look like a bug to me at all though?
16:05 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/11343 -- falling blocks don't stop falling at world border
16:07 Zughy[m] it depends on their take, really
16:08 erle i think this is another occasion of people not understanding the behaviour of things at the world border
16:08 erle like the “oh, my water is flowing without a source” complaints, into the trash it belongs
16:57 MTDiscord <Jordach> There should probably be a LuaError inside the register node function
17:00 MTDiscord <Jordach> Won’t stop someone from overriding the definition but it secures it from the average user who may not know better
17:01 appguru joined #minetest-dev
17:31 sfan5 oh ffs someone broke something nodedef related again
17:32 sfan5 unknown nodes now show with "no texture"
17:37 erle unknown node in devtest when
17:38 MTDiscord <Warr1024> Yeah, I saw that: shows as "unknown node" on SP or SP+host, shows as "no texture" on MP client-only.
17:38 MTDiscord <Warr1024> I actually couldn't remember whether that was new or I had just never noticed :-|
17:38 MTDiscord <Warr1024> If a node is not defined, then a texture cannot be defined for it, so TECHNICALLY both are correct XD
17:52 qur joined #minetest-dev
18:04 sfan5 BuckarooBanzai: please test #12234
18:04 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/12234 -- [NO SQUASH] Auth-related fixes by sfan5
18:04 sfan5 or wait that was fluxionary actually
18:18 BuckarooBanzai sfan5: i'd like to help on this one but can' t really test this right now, the solution looks good though :)
18:45 erle > How to test
18:45 erle > Exercise left to the reader.
18:45 erle sfan5 do you have code to create each crash condition?
18:45 sfan5 no
18:45 erle for which one do you have code?
18:46 sfan5 zero out of one
18:55 sfan5 huh? the wrong texture for unknown nodes bug suddenly vanished
18:57 sfan5 now it's back, I only rewinded one commit (definitely unrelated)
19:01 qur joined #minetest-dev
19:07 paradust Is this another mystery? Like the spilled water?
19:08 proller joined #minetest-dev
19:11 Pexin it's aliens
19:13 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> I'm a sneaky fox, I come in through your window, I go and flood your minetest world, I recompile your minetest with random bugs added
19:17 paradust If it was me I'd be concerned I was having a stroke, or carbon monoxide poisoning
19:21 erle yeah that or having not much sleep or being dead tired.
19:21 erle https://www.cdc.gov/stroke/signs_symptoms.htm
20:03 fluxionary sfan5, i read and tested #12234, it seems good to me.
20:03 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/12234 -- [NO SQUASH] Auth-related fixes by sfan5
20:04 sfan5 you tested it with that thing that'd usually reproduce the error and confirmed it was absent, right?
20:04 fluxionary yup
20:04 sfan5 thanks
20:05 fluxionary i tried flooding it w/ new accounts, sometimes they shared a name, sometimes not, it held up when it used to crash.
20:25 erle fluxionary could you post the script you use in the issue?
20:26 erle i think this needs to be backported for debian/ubuntu
20:26 erle and it's much more convincing with a proof of concept
20:27 MTDiscord <Jonathon> Yes, let's make the way to attack servers even more public, great idea
20:27 erle or maybe don't post it publicly before this is fixed
20:43 HuguesRoss Merging #12204 in 15min

21:38 Zughy[m] this should say "game engine", same with line 16, right? https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/misc/net.minetest.minetest.appdata.xml#L13
21:39 Zughy[m] I guess the whole file is deprecated
21:45 Zughy[m] which makes #12161 kinda pointless
