09:25 mtvisitor hallo, good afternoon.
09:26 mtvisitor https://github.com/minetest/minetest
09:26 mtvisitor https://github.com/minetest/minetest#compiling
09:27 mtvisitor for RUN_IN_PLACE=true or false, is it possible to add "make install" section in the README.md file together with the next release of minetest engine ?
09:30 * mtvisitor also asked this question (request) in #minetest-docs channel.
09:36 mtvisitor for mod development, is it possible to add item and node counts (statistic) in each mod on the content web page ?
09:37 mtvisitor https://rubenwardy.com/minetest_modding_book/en/items/nodes_items_crafting.html
09:37 mtvisitor please let me know if i need to submit a issue or request on the github.com/minetest.
09:37 mtvisitor that is all for today.
09:38 mtvisitor have a nice day! ;-)
09:45 mtvisitor ok, no problem. we could talk/discuss/chat on some minetest game server(s) later.
09:45 mtvisitor https://content.minetest.net/packages/ROllerozxa/simple_roads/stats/
09:47 ROllerozxa what
09:47 rubenwardy what
09:48 rubenwardy showing node/item counts would require code execution and the count may vary depending on what mods are installed
10:02 MTDiscord <jordan4ibanez> That person just answered their own question in the wrong channel
10:07 sfan5 rubenwardy: don't forget my suggestion to run every cdb mod in docker once ;)
10:07 rubenwardy that would be good but doesn't fix the fact that the number of items isn't a fixed number

14:16 MTDiscord <herowl> Yeah, also some mods may have technical nodes/items that are replacements/placeholders/hacks (eg.  crop growth stages, bow draw stages, etc.), and some items that register or not depending on some settings (eg. debug aid items, optional features), so displaying such a number is not really doable (because what circumstances would it take into account?)... and I don't even see use for such statistics.
14:27 rubenwardy RE: CDB running mods. I'd like to see this done as an external service. I could add release status checks to ContentDB to show the results, but implementing it as an external service is good for maintainability and security
14:31 MTDiscord <warr1024> It's feasible to display the number of nodes registered without regard to semantic meaning, which is at least useful for people trying to build a game/pack and need to know the cost of adding a mod against the registration budget. The problem is that you can't always ADD node registrations.  For example, there are "more stairs" kinds of mods that have a multiplicative effect on registrations, i.e. they add a certain number of node
14:31 MTDiscord registrations for each node already registered that meets certain criteria.
14:38 sfan5 rubenwardy: it could be an external service code-wise (not part of CDB) without the overhead of actually having its own UI
14:38 rubenwardy exactly
14:38 rubenwardy it could just make ContentDB threads or show an icon with a tooltip on releases
15:11 MTDiscord <lemente> Maybe these mods' item count could be tagged as "inaccurate"?  And the item count could be a range, after testing every dependency variations
15:41 rubenwardy There's 2^n combinations. So with 100 mods, there's 2^100 = 1.267 * 10^30 combinations
16:06 sfan5 pushing http://sprunge.us/X7UkTJ?diff in 5-10m
16:20 rubenwardy A "why" in the comment would probably be helpful
