00:09 sofar      well dang ITB is broken hard on some obscure error when running on 5.7.0
00:09 sofar      builtin/game/register.lua:199: bad argument #5 to 'register_item_raw' (table expected, got string)
00:09 ShadowBot  https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5 -- Fixed key names so the key set menu now works. by adamnew123456
00:09 sofar      it's for sure being passed a table :/
00:15 sofar      $ ./bin/minetestserver --help
00:15 sofar      ./bin/minetestserver: error while loading shared libraries: libtinfow.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
00:15 sofar      seriously?
00:20 * sofar    cleans builds
00:23 sofar      okay, seeing the same error local... if anyone has seen this before please lemme know what turned out to be the underlying error:
00:23 sofar      https://paste.centos.org/view/88f7b59b
00:24 sofar      was working fine in 5.6.x before - it's being passed (name, itemdef) just as before, but now horrlbly crashes
00:27 rubenwardy looks like bug report time
00:27 rubenwardy I'm guessing that it's sound - should be a table not a string
00:27 rubenwardy https://gitlab.com/sofar/insidethebox/-/blob/master/mods/doors/init.lua#L592
00:28 rubenwardy but obviously the engine should tell you this
00:28 sofar      I was wondering which ones it was
00:28 rubenwardy https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/lua_api.md?plain=1#L8386
00:29 rubenwardy It happens that strings are indexable, so a string would be interpretted the same as {}
00:29 rubenwardy but I guess something has changed that strictly checks the type
00:29 rubenwardy > It happens that strings are indexable, so a string would be interpretted the same as {}
00:29 rubenwardy ("some string").breaks == nil
00:30 rubenwardy https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/10232
00:31 sofar      it's a conflict
00:31 sofar      I renamed the field to `use_sound` since the sound is only used from the on_rightclick() handler and that fixes
00:31 rubenwardy ah nice
00:32 rubenwardy the API recommends prefixing custom fields with _ I believe
00:32 sofar      oh lol I've got a lot of renaming to do then ;)
00:33 rubenwardy also box releasing?
00:33 sofar      hey wanna see my honey-do list? :)
00:34 rubenwardy :O
05:22 imi        hi, if I issue /set motd whatever or /set -n whatever1 whatever2 does it get saved? if so when how and where? when will it take effect? what sort of API do I need to use in my mods to make it take effect?
06:59 sfan5      it's not saved by default with standalone minetestserver but I think there's a way to invoke saving the global minetest.conf
07:00 imi        I see thanks
10:30 imi        can I somehow confiscate items? whether be it placed, in inventory or dropped? e.g. I want all default:stone to be gone, or something similar.
10:32 pgimeno    modding questions should go in #minetest, this channel is for engine development
10:37 imi        ok thanks
10:42 MTDiscord  <kimapr> kill all stone? why
