Time Nick Message 13:29 Krock will merge #14739 in 10 minutes 13:29 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/14739 -- Fix connected_players on_shutdown by cx384 13:55 [MTMatrix] 👀 14:00 Krock that were long 10 minutes but let's do it anyway 18:26 [MTMatrix] hey staff, I've created an internal discussion for the new name. Please vote :D 18:44 Krock is there an option for "Minetest"? 18:44 * Krock runs 20:23 Mantar every name I've heard suggested sounds terrible to me 20:32 MTDiscord More terrible than Minetest? 20:32 sfan5 Testmine 20:33 MTDiscord this sounds vaguely lewd lol 20:33 MTDiscord Mining is a piece of some games, sure. Testing sadly is very accurate 95% of the time though... OldBlockyEngineTestThingy? 20:33 celeron55_ celeron55game 20:34 MTDiscord Lol 20:34 MTDiscord back when i wanted to write my own voxel game i wanted to call it "dig'n'build" lol 20:35 MTDiscord I mean, if I were serious: it's a sandbox, you can be creative and share it with friends everywhere, for free (open source and all that). OpenBlocks? 20:36 Mantar yeah, a test is a challenge after all, and MT with it's 32k depth has more in-depth (ha!) mining than other competing voxel games. Minetest sucks as a name, but I've heard a lot of really bad suggestions 20:37 MTDiscord Or "Foundation", something that means the base engine or that effect. "bedrock" 😉 20:37 Mantar :D 20:39 MTDiscord Random happy word: "Vibrant" Best acronym: Miae (Minetest is an Engine) 20:40 MTDiscord Meseworld 20:40 MTDiscord The thing is, that sounds a lot more like a name for a game than for an engine. 20:41 MTDiscord Chunkinator 20:41 Mantar Vibrant sounds okay if entirely generic and uninformative. But I prefer Emacsbrant personally 20:42 celeron55_ i read that as Embarrasment and thought that's perfect 20:42 Mantar whoo, new name chosen! 20:42 celeron55_ reverse psychology always works 20:42 MTDiscord Discord got away with its name. 20:42 Mantar and a lot more besides 20:42 MTDiscord If you pronounce "mese" like "messy", then I'd be happy with that name. 20:42 MTDiscord Embarrassment is too long 20:43 MTDiscord Mese by itself ain't horrible. 20:43 Mantar So we name it Cringe 20:43 MTDiscord Can it run Crisis? Can it run Cringe? 20:44 MTDiscord Put "blockchain" and "AI" into the name, if you want investors 20:45 MTDiscord I'd love for a VC to back a Minetest fork for a month to see what they'd try lol 20:50 sfan5 Mesechain AI 20:55 [MTMatrix] 2.0 20:55 Krock Mesechain AI 2.0 XT Super 20:55 [MTMatrix] LIMITED 20:56 Niklp *should be "Super+" ;-) 22:39 * mtvisitor need more cups of ice water. ;-) 22:39 mtvisitor 🧊 22:39 MTDiscord There are basically only two options for Minetest's name anyway: either "Minetest" or "whatever (formerly Minetest)". Everytime I see a twitter/X link it makes me like any "formerly" option less... 23:27 celeron55_ @warr1024 it still is a temporary state though, even though it will last for years 23:28 MTDiscord If we end up renaming Minetest to something else, and then renaming it back, we'll have to call it "Minetest (formerly formerly Minetest)" 23:55 nekobit Would there be any interest or approval to create an ncurses mod/curl interface for servers? 23:56 nekobit and updater, etc 23:57 MTDiscord to do what? minetest supports ncurses if it exists, and has the http interface for mods 23:57 nekobit You can't really update or download mods, change settings easily, through terminal (which is how i access my servers) 23:57 nekobit or change mod settings 23:58 MTDiscord seems that much better done via git tbh 23:58 nekobit hm? 23:58 MTDiscord If I need to change settings at runtime, I'll use szutil_consocket and connect to the server console that way, but most settings I can't meaningfully change at runtime anyway. 23:58 nekobit oh, you mean like mirroring a repo from my own computer 23:58 nekobit If not, then i could just make a separate program to do these things (which is certainly possible). However, embedding it into the minetest command would be convenient 23:59 MTDiscord For updating mods, I wouldn't do that manually anyway. 23:59 MTDiscord see for example https://github.com/BlockySurvival/bls_mods, https://github.com/pandorabox-io/pandorabox-mods, etc 23:59 nekobit for example, enable/disabling mods requires prodding the world.mt file, but its hard to tell how to enable all of the mods 23:59 nekobit for a modpack 23:59 MTDiscord tbh, just use worldmods on the server 23:59 nekobit usually, i just open my own local minetest, enable a mod, then copy the world.mt
