08:11 atorian37 o/ all, what mod are you recomend for background sound on a MT server? I have ambience from tenplus1 but the ambience_sound.x.ogg will not play back

08:42 Krock *mysequweli
08:54 IcyDiamond why is my label rendering behind the image
08:54 IcyDiamond but it comes after the image[
08:54 IcyDiamond formspec
08:56 IcyDiamond actually its rendering behind all of them
08:56 IcyDiamond is that something that happens or am i supposed to put the labels before images?
08:57 IcyDiamond no that doesnt work either
08:57 IcyDiamond aww
08:58 IcyDiamond that sucks :(
09:02 lumberJ different x,y coords for label?
09:02 IcyDiamond ?
09:03 IcyDiamond I want it to be on the image tho
09:04 IcyDiamond whatever
09:04 Krock well, the drawing order is sometimes not too great
09:04 IcyDiamond nothing about formspecs is great tbh :P

11:27 Jordach celeron55: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (2 "No such file or directory") [2002]
11:27 Jordach (forum.minetest.net)
11:29 Krock a bit less than 3 hours ago: <Krock> sequweli seems to have stopped working
11:31 Krock we already have an issue for that 8)
11:56 Jordach seems like the server can't handle emoji
11:56 IhrFussel So in Wuzzy2's eyes this license is "non-free" ...is it cause it forbids commercial use? https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/
12:02 Fuchs IhrFussel: that is indeed the restriction e.g. the FSF has for free licenses, it can't be limited
12:02 Fuchs including "not for evil purposes" or, as in this case, "not for commercial purposes"
12:02 Fuchs personally I'd say this makes licenses less free, but ah well, matter of viewpoint
12:02 IhrFussel But just because you can't make profit off of it it's "non-free"? That term sounds wrong to me
12:03 IhrFussel But "free" has at least 2 meanings
12:05 Fuchs more, and when it comes to licenses, some people have a very strict view on what "free" means
12:06 Fuchs see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software_license#Definitions  and below
12:06 Fuchs personally I think it's silly, but that's a good topic for long, pointless discussions
12:09 IhrFussel I'd guess many open source activists only call something "free" if they can do whatever they want with it (minus leaving out copyrights/attributions)
12:11 Fuchs uuuuh
12:11 Fuchs free software activists
12:12 Fuchs open source are the more pragmatic ones  (and thus dislikes by free software activists, e.g. see Richard Stallman)
12:13 IhrFussel Well acording to people from quora.com "The Open Source Definition doesn't include "free for non-commercial use" licenses."
12:14 Fuchs yes, see the article I linked, e.g. OSI versus FSF
12:14 Fuchs but as said, one can spend days discussing this, usually without result
12:14 Fuchs gist is: some people will indeed see *-nc-*  as non-free
12:14 Fuchs others won't
12:14 Fuchs and both have their arguments, and potentially everybody you ask about it has an opinion
12:16 IhrFussel Personally I find it disgusting to look for some open source code, build a program with it (that is originally available at no cost) and make money with it
12:16 IhrFussel Example: Most MT clones on iTunes and Google Play
12:17 aerozoic joined #minetest-hub
12:18 IhrFussel That's like saying "hey you worked so hard on this, so let me take it and make profit although I only put in a fraction of your work"
12:19 Fuchs ‎[14:14:20] ‎<‎Fuchs‎>‎ but as said, one can spend days discussing this, usually without result
12:19 rubenwardy Lol
12:19 rubenwardy Hey Fuchs
12:19 Fuchs hi!
12:19 IhrFussel But NOBODY would do this in real life
12:19 Fuchs how's things?
12:19 IhrFussel Just online
12:20 Fuchs yes, I'm sure nobody offline would ever make money based on the work others have done for free!  Or discuss that, for that matter. Entirely an itnernet phenomenom
12:20 Fuchs didn't exist before the internet, like, at all
12:20 Fuchs *goes back to his cave :>*
12:21 IhrFussel Or at least I never heard of such a story ... cause usually someone who creates a product wants to sell it themselves
12:22 Fuchs *cough* Tesla *cough*
12:22 Fuchs (not the car)
12:22 Mr_Pardison joined #minetest-hub
12:22 Fuchs not to mention plenty of producs that are based on freely available research
12:23 twoelk -nc is indeed nonfree imho because it can be argued for example that including -nc for free things among others on a magazin cd promotes the comercial stuff and I do have to spend money to get access to the cd
12:25 IhrFussel But as standalone product nc is still "free" if you payed no money for it
12:26 IhrFussel But free can mean both "no cost" and "freedom" and more... and I'm sure that's what many argue about whether or not "free" should mean "no money involved" or "freedom to do whatever I want with it" (depending on license terms)
12:27 twoelk for example would an internet cafe be allowed to let their customers use -nc software?
12:28 IhrFussel Many products offer a special license/price for commercial use cause they know commercial means "can get quite a bit of money from them"
12:30 IhrFussel But for me as private user, nc costs no money and allows me to fully use it ... so the average joe would call it "free"
12:32 IhrFussel But Fuchs is right, the discussion could never end, because the opinions on it are many ... usually the law would then decide what's non-free and what isn't
12:32 Fuchs uuuuh
12:32 Fuchs the law doesn't exactly go for that definition of free
12:32 Fuchs it does for the monetary one
12:33 ThomasMonroe umm I'm getting a SQL error when trying to connect to the forums
12:33 ThomasMonroe SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]
12:33 ThomasMonroe Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysql.sock' (2 "No such file or directory") [2002]
12:33 ThomasMonroe An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.
12:33 twoelk it may have it's uses but most of the time I think -nc is overcomplicating things beyond thier usefullness forcing people to worry over legal stuff and deciding it's not worth the hassle for their specific usecass and thus moving on to another solution with an easier to understand license
12:34 IhrFussel Fuchs, you mean the law would rather say "if you can't make profit it's not free" or the other meaning?
12:36 * twoelk looks for a nice cosey rock to crawl under again
12:36 IhrFussel MT forum for example allows -nc- mods too ... I think MTG even uses some non-commercial files or maybe that was fixed
12:36 twoelk left #minetest-hub
12:36 Fuchs the law would define whether something is monetary "free"  (as in: free of charge), I doubt the law has a say on free as in freedom when it comes to content licenses
12:40 Jordach the best license is ostensibly WTFPL
12:41 IhrFussel Maybe it was just in the forum where I read about MT potentially having -nc- textures or something
12:43 Fuchs Jordach: I recently stumbled over Schroedingers License
12:43 Fuchs which also has quite the potential
12:45 Jordach magnificent
12:45 Jordach new minetest mod
12:45 Jordach schroedingerscrash
12:46 Jordach placing, then interacting with the block will either do nothing or crash
12:46 Jordach inside the node is a counter, ticking from 0 to 1
12:47 Jordach and attempts to divide by it
12:47 Fuchs great idea, do it
12:47 Fuchs mention my contribution though!
12:54 rubenwardy IhrFussel: MTG has never used NC stufg
13:00 Jordach joined #minetest-hub
13:00 Jordach i feel like adding an easter egg into my game
13:00 Jordach anytime someone puts blockchain into chat
13:00 Jordach they get BITCONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECTTTTTTTTTT screamed into their ears
13:05 ThomasMonroe lol
13:06 IcyDiamond BITCONNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECT
13:07 Mr-Pardison or when they put <Invalid UTF-8> it says "Invalid response"
13:07 IcyDiamond lol
13:08 IcyDiamond Jordach: do it
13:30 Krock use blockchain to implement your easter egg
13:46 Amaz https://gist.github.com/Amaz1/84577af5ef60f7a88a593e3269cac7b0 <-- schroedingerscrash mod :P
13:47 Mr-Pardison that was fast.
13:47 Amaz :P
13:48 ThomasMonroe lol
13:48 Amaz It doesn't do exactly what was described, but that would be easy to implement :P
13:56 IcyDiamond is it possible to display a hud when the player is holding an item and the hud contains data from the item's metadata
13:56 IcyDiamond or does it have to be a formspec
13:57 Jordach formspecs onlu
13:57 Jordach the hud api is useless if you have differing DPI
13:57 Jordach can we please set the default DPI to 96 and font size 18
13:58 Jordach for all major desktop and laptop platforms at least
13:58 IcyDiamond damn it
13:58 rubenwardy sure you can
13:58 rubenwardy player:get_wielded_item() for the stack
13:58 rubenwardy then just update the HUD
13:58 sfan5 Jordach: is there an issue open for this
13:58 Jordach sfan5: i opened one a while ago
14:01 IcyDiamond but could you show a gui that stays above a node
14:02 rubenwardy with an entity you can kinda do that
14:02 rubenwardy but not very well
14:02 IcyDiamond aw
14:03 IcyDiamond I knew I wouldn't be able to recreate cool mc mod features here
14:03 rubenwardy you can use texture modifiers to build text and display on an entity
14:03 rubenwardy you could do it the same way MC does
14:03 rubenwardy by modifying the core game code
14:03 rubenwardy patch mods not plugin mods
14:03 IcyDiamond I want my crystals to show the elements they contain like the nodes did in thaumcraft
14:04 rubenwardy screenshot?
14:04 Amaz It would be nice if the waypoint hud type had an option to allow distance to be hidden, which might make it more useful for things like this.
14:04 IcyDiamond http://i.stack.imgur.com/PmrlK.jpg
14:05 IcyDiamond is it a bad idea to use abms on nodes that generate in the world btw?
14:06 rubenwardy you could do that with an entity, but it would be painful
14:06 rubenwardy see the name tags on CTF
14:06 Mr-Pardison running ABM's a lot can and will cause lag.
14:06 rubenwardy they're an entity
14:06 IcyDiamond do abms only run on the nodes currently loaded?
14:06 rubenwardy use node timers for things like furnaces and such
14:06 rubenwardy active block modifiers only modify active blocks ;)
14:07 IcyDiamond I want the crystals to passively have a chance to regenerate their element contents
14:07 rubenwardy really it should be called abnm
14:07 rubenwardy active block node modifiers
14:08 IcyDiamond https://i.lunasqu.ee/Screenshot_18-04-17-17:08:10.png
14:08 rubenwardy get_string with always be non-nil
14:08 IcyDiamond k
14:10 IcyDiamond but how about deserialize("")
14:10 IcyDiamond is that nil?
14:10 rubenwardy not actually sure
14:10 IcyDiamond wait i can try
14:11 behalebabo joined #minetest-hub
14:12 IcyDiamond i think so
14:12 IcyDiamond yes
14:12 IcyDiamond minetest.deserialize("") == nil
14:12 IcyDiamond is indeed true
14:13 IcyDiamond okay cool whatever
14:13 IcyDiamond ill keep the abms for now
14:16 IcyDiamond I guess I could add a crystal inspector tool that displays the contents in a formspec
14:30 Mr-Pardison joined #minetest-hub
14:33 IcyDiamond I just realized that I have a birthday tomorrow
14:33 IcyDiamond damn
14:34 Mr-Pardison age is part of lide.
14:34 Mr-Pardison *life
14:34 IcyDiamond oh god
14:36 IcyDiamond [on] ok
14:38 IcyDiamond can i leave a message to someone who's currently offline here?
14:39 IcyDiamond actually no i dont want to
14:39 Amaz If you do in future, !msg name message works :)
14:39 IcyDiamond okay
14:40 IcyDiamond I hate my isp
14:40 IcyDiamond I keep getting timed out of my own server :(
14:40 rubenwardy /msg MemoServ send NAME MESG
14:40 twoelk joined #minetest-hub
14:41 IcyDiamond my server has only 4 total registered players lol
14:41 IcyDiamond and none have played on it recently
14:42 IcyDiamond i guess its too boring
14:42 IcyDiamond my minecraft server didnt have players for weeks so i killed it
14:42 Mr-Pardison joined #minetest-hub
14:43 rubenwardy IcyDiamond: what's your server?
14:43 IcyDiamond icynet.eu
14:43 rubenwardy cool
14:43 rubenwardy !server icynet.eu
14:43 MinetestBot rubenwardy: No results
14:43 Mr-Pardison port?
14:43 rubenwardy !server address:icynet.eu
14:43 MinetestBot rubenwardy: No results
14:43 * twoelk greets BakerPrime from here as he seems to lack voice over at VE-servers
14:43 IcyDiamond default
14:43 rubenwardy not public I guess
14:43 IcyDiamond it is announced
14:44 IcyDiamond i didnt make any threads about it tho
14:44 IcyDiamond maybe because its 0.5.0-dev
14:44 IcyDiamond I try to keep it up to date with master
14:45 rubenwardy 0.5.0 is da bomb
14:46 Jordach you're goddamn right
14:46 IcyDiamond :P
14:46 rubenwardy the best release yet
14:46 IcyDiamond i'm developing all my mods in 0.5 as well
14:46 Jordach release 0.5 OR RIOTS
14:46 IcyDiamond xD
14:47 * Mr-Pardison hands Jordach a pitchfork and torch
14:47 IcyDiamond torchfork
14:47 rubenwardy pls wait for #7226
14:47 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/7226 -- Add online content library by rubenwardy
14:47 Jordach who would win: a community of devs maintaining a game engine or a handful of forum and IRC shitposters
14:47 IcyDiamond :D
14:47 Mr-Pardison isn't it obvious?
14:47 Mr-Pardison devs ofc.
14:48 twoelk could we make more paths configurable in mt 0.5?
14:48 IcyDiamond Jordach: devs have that shiny little "@" in front of their names
14:48 IcyDiamond they can silence you in a single command
14:49 IcyDiamond :P
14:49 Mr-Pardison exactly why they would win.
14:49 * twoelk is still dreaming of this project https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=14&amp;t=7709
14:50 * IcyDiamond is dreaming of this project https://github.com/LunaSquee/universium-engine
14:50 IcyDiamond [of]
14:51 IcyDiamond (don't compile it, it does nothing)
14:51 rubenwardy actually, the ops in this channel are half of each
14:51 rubenwardy devs and non-devs
14:51 IcyDiamond xD
14:51 rubenwardy done for a reason
14:51 IcyDiamond obviously
14:52 Jordach https://i.imgur.com/igKGIjY.jpg
14:52 IcyDiamond haha
14:52 IcyDiamond o3o someone followed me
15:01 BakerPrime Twoelk: Oh, hmm, weird. I guess VE needs to Auto-Voice you.
15:14 atorian37 joined #minetest-hub
15:39 rdococ Hm, concept: Additional elements maybe from the periodic table IRL, or a fictional version
15:44 IcyDiamond somebody should make an actual chemistry mod
15:45 IcyDiamond I mean, I could /probably/ pull it off but eh idk
15:47 rdococ I was considering it
15:48 rdococ to be honest, for a simple game like MTG I don't think there should be too many ores, but with a chemistry mod you could go all out and add basically every element or compound to the game
15:49 * Mr-Pardison starts making hydrogen, accidentally places a torch down and sees his whole workshop go boom
15:49 IcyDiamond you can add every element but they dont necessarily all have to have ores
15:50 IcyDiamond you can add different processing methods for ores that contain trace elements
15:50 Amaz Or even just for stone/cobblestone
15:50 IcyDiamond indeed
15:51 twoelk didn't jordach or somebody once make a periodic table for mt?
15:51 rdococ true
15:51 rdococ twoelk: I was planning on creating a simple periodic table for MTG+mods
15:53 IcyDiamond man, mt really needs an universal power api
15:53 rdococ Rather than having every single element from real life, I would divide the real periodic table into more generic Minetest elements instead
15:53 IcyDiamond technic is not good imo
15:53 rdococ for example, highly reactive alkali and alkaline metals would be merged into some form of 'Alkalum'
15:53 IcyDiamond i'd like to get rid of the switching station and power tiers
15:54 IcyDiamond just have machine/cable tiers which allow for faster power transfer/processing
15:54 Mr-Pardison IcyDiamond: but a switching station in technic with a reactor is the only way to safely shut it down.
15:54 IcyDiamond then the reactor has to be redesigned
15:54 Mr-Pardison well, not shut down per say but service it.
15:55 IcyDiamond im thinking about making another mod altogether
15:55 IcyDiamond an API needs to be finished first
15:55 rdococ Maybe have control rods you could add to the nuclear reactor powered by electromagnets, so if something goes wrong the power can be cut to the electromagnets and the control rods would automatically insert into the reactor
15:55 IcyDiamond but how would you keep track of networks without an origin?
15:55 rdococ Electromagnets optional
15:55 rdococ (for MT, anyway)
15:56 IcyDiamond can we make power sources find users?
15:56 IcyDiamond like the switching station finds machines
15:57 Mr-Pardison player detector from mesecons is kinda what your thinking of if I'm seeing this right.
15:57 Mr-Pardison *looking for
15:57 IcyDiamond or should we make machines search for sources instead?
15:57 IcyDiamond eh, nah
15:57 rdococ I think IcyDiamond means machines that use power
15:58 Mr-Pardison have to have some way of connecting the machines to a power supply source which is where cables come in.
15:59 rdococ Digilines allows you to send arbitrary messages between nodes in what are essentially node networks. I wonder if we could generalize that
16:01 IcyDiamond what should i call my attempt at making a power system
16:01 IcyDiamond xD
16:01 rdococ Energonsâ„¢
16:01 IcyDiamond XD
16:02 rdococ MTG has a whole separate tin metal to iron and copper, which I find odd
16:05 IcyDiamond huh?
16:05 IcyDiamond how is it odd
16:05 rdococ I would honestly prefer MTG bronze to be crafted from copper and iron. Sure, it's less accurate, but when MTG went for more accuracy and added tin you end up with a metal that's only really useful in an alloy of which it only takes up some 10%
16:05 IcyDiamond lol
16:06 rdococ Essentially, 8 copper ingots + 1 tin ingot -> 8/9 bronze ingots, so a tin ingot is basically worth a small fraction of a bronze ingot, and that's only if you have the copper too
16:06 rdococ Also, steel tools should not be weaker than bronze tools - if it's meant to be iron then call it iron
16:07 IcyDiamond yeah i dont like how its called steel either
16:09 rdococ Also, diamond tools makes no sense
16:09 IcyDiamond blame minecraft
16:09 rdococ "Oh, I know what I should make a sword out of" "A precious gemstone!"
16:09 Mr-Pardison have to hop brb
16:09 Mr_Pardison joined #minetest-hub
16:10 IcyDiamond maybe i should make my own mtg
16:10 IcyDiamond XD
16:11 rdococ That might be difficult, plus many mods rely on the current MTG
16:12 rubenwardy IcyDiamond: yes! Make your own game!
16:13 rubenwardy !title https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=49&amp;t=19760
16:13 MinetestBot rubenwardy: Please make more games! - Minetest Forums
16:13 IcyDiamond i could just fork mtg and change things I want
16:13 rdococ hm, I might do that too
16:13 rdococ aliasing all steel tools and tin to iron
16:16 sniper338 joined #minetest-hub
16:17 rdococ Also, it's rather difficult to create a game from scratch as has been pointed out in the forum thread, unless that's changed recently
16:18 Jordach joined #minetest-hub
16:18 Mr-Pardison rdococ: AFIAK, it hasn't.
16:27 rdococ A simple addition to MTG would be an alkali(ne) metal
16:27 rdococ it doesn't have one yet
16:28 rdococ Sodium is the most abundant alkali metal on Earth, maybe that?
16:29 IcyDiamond so.. salt?
16:30 IcyDiamond salt is a source of sodium
16:30 IcyDiamond lol
16:30 rdococ Table salt is sodium chloride
16:32 IcyDiamond I think imma do some experimentation with chemistry in minetest
16:32 * IcyDiamond starts writing elements into a lua table
16:32 rdococ My brain barrel is dry of good ideas at the moment
16:33 IcyDiamond I just want to experiment with stuff
16:33 IcyDiamond thats why i mod in the first place
16:33 IcyDiamond its fun
16:36 IcyDiamond oh damn this table is going to be way too big
16:36 IcyDiamond XD
16:37 rdococ I'd consider shrinking it to a subset of elements
16:37 rdococ Maybe have a few elements from each group and period
16:40 rdococ I like the idea of a game that would essentially be "modernized Minecraft Beta"
16:41 rdococ s/Beta"/Beta-esque game"
16:48 rdococ IcyDiamond: I like the idea of a polaroid crystal
16:52 IcyDiamond lol
16:53 Mr-Pardison shake it like a polaroid
16:53 IcyDiamond shake it bake it
16:55 rdococ Shake it into a yay
16:58 rdococ hm, is mese piezoelectric?
17:02 CWz What's up!
17:02 rdococ The sky
17:02 Mr-Pardison not my cholesterol afaik
17:02 CWz Good answer!
17:04 IcyDiamond lol
17:04 rdococ My consumption of sugary food and drink
17:04 rdococ I'm turning into a unicorn!
17:29 benrob0329 joined #minetest-hub
17:30 rdococ benrob0329: Hm, concept: Pocket dimensions and portals to them, as a generalization of the TARDIS mod you made
17:30 rdococ So rather than starting in a TARDIS, you'd start in an empty, say about 32x32 space you could build in
17:30 rdococ s/32x32/32x32x32/
17:33 rdococ Obsidian should be easily breakable - heck, it's a form of volcanic *glass*
17:40 benrob0329 rdococ, so like the safe-spaces mode for Gmod?
17:40 benrob0329 *mod
17:40 rdococ not sure what that is, but sure
17:44 rdococ Another concept I'm gonna throw out there: Giving furnaces and other things like it an option to set a configurable stack maximum so that pipeworks supersmelters can be made that distribute fuel and coal among the furnaces
17:53 twoelk why not make furnaces upgradable so that such a function is part of furnace progression
17:54 rdococ Ooh, that sounds cool

18:25 Mr-Pardison joined #minetest-hub
18:26 rdococ Looks like my gold furnace concept works if the item stacks in the pipes that enter the furnace are 1
18:27 rdococ Nothing a little hacky code can't fix, although nothing a little hacky code can fix well
18:39 rdococ Can't seem to get it to work
18:40 IcyDiamond ..gold furnace?
18:41 rdococ The idea is that you'd be able to set an arbitrary stack limit so that when you pipe items into a line of furnaces, the smelting load is spread out
18:41 rdococ e.g. five gold furnaces, and each can hold only 20 items
18:42 rdococ so if you put 99 iron lumps in it, you get a (semi-)even distribution

18:54 VanessaE sfan5: is there some flag I have to set to force worldedit to let me make "invalid" node selections?  e.g. to //replace an unknown node?
18:54 sfan5 i could tell you where you'd need to patch to allow unknown nodes
18:54 VanessaE mmmh
18:54 sfan5 but does get_content_id work on unknown nodes? because if not, it won't work anyway
18:55 VanessaE well all I know is I can point at an unknown node to see its name.
18:55 IcyDiamond was I the lifeblood of #minetest? It's completely ded now that I started talking here instead
18:55 IcyDiamond lmao
18:55 rubenwardy that's common
18:55 IcyDiamond i feel like an essential part of this irc community
18:55 IcyDiamond :P
18:56 sfan5 VanessaE: https://github.com/Uberi/Minetest-WorldEdit/blob/master/worldedit_commands/init.lua#L30-L31  change these to "return nodename"
18:56 VanessaE sfan, for context, I imported a .we someone gave me, a model of the Titanic, and one of the nodes used frequently is some kind of third-party torch
18:56 sfan5 this will make worldedit accept anything you throw at it, so it might actually crash if you give it a node that's really invalid
18:57 IcyDiamond maybe i have just developed an ego
18:57 xerox123_ joined #minetest-hub
18:57 * Mr-Pardison pokes a hole in the ego

18:57 * rdococ wonders what having an ego feels like
18:58 * rdococ steals IcyDiamond's ego
18:58 IcyDiamond XD
18:58 VanessaE eh, no opportunity to patch that out.  i'll just let the user fix it by hand.  it's not like there are thousands of that node or something.
19:00 sfan5 must be a tiny version of the Titanic then ;)
19:01 IcyDiamond lol
19:02 VanessaE heh no, it's still WIP :)
19:03 VanessaE looks to be about 170 stem to stern
19:03 VanessaE Mr-Pardison: a thousand dead in icy water?
19:03 Mr-Pardison nope.
19:03 Mr-Pardison Halfway.
19:03 VanessaE ohhh.
19:04 VanessaE sfan5: looks to be about 170m stem to stern.

19:15 IhrFussel is it possible that meta data of a node doesn't get saved right away?
19:16 rubenwardy yes, it dosn't
19:16 rubenwardy it gets saved when the mapblock gets saved
19:16 IhrFussel So if I add a player to a shared door via meta and the player tries to access it it takes a moment before it works
19:16 rubenwardy no
19:17 rubenwardy because it's loaded in memry
19:17 rubenwardy you'll only notice something wrong if the server crashes
19:17 IhrFussel Then I have no explanation for the behavior
19:17 rubenwardy sounds like a mod bug
19:19 IhrFussel There is no delay, it sets the meta right after the confirmation message...no globalstep, no minetest.after
19:20 rubenwardy it would be helpful to have some context
19:20 rubenwardy even better, some code
19:25 IhrFussel meta:set_string("allowed_users", meta:get_string("allowed_users").."#"..help[2].."# ");
19:25 IhrFussel minetest.chat_send_player(name, help[2].." may now use/access this locked object."); << those are the 2 lines that set the meta in the add command of the door
19:25 IhrFussel help[2] is the playername and it displays correctly
19:27 sofar you probably want to mark that node meta private so it doesn't get sent to players
19:27 IhrFussel local liste = meta:get_string("allowed_users") if string.find(liste,"#"..name.."# ", 1, true) then return true end << and this is just the simple check that compares the puncher to the meta
19:29 rubenwardy I suggest printing out list
19:29 rubenwardy *liste
19:29 rubenwardy and also making sure the meta is for the same position
19:30 IhrFussel It's saved per door AFAIK
19:30 IhrFussel It's not my mod, I only modify it a bit
19:33 IhrFussel This code is correct or not? (delete from door command): local newlist = string.gsub(rawlist,"#"..help[2].."# ","")
19:33 IhrFussel meta:set_string( "allowed_users",newlist);
19:33 rubenwardy it's disgusting
19:34 IhrFussel rawlist is the allowed_users meta string*
19:34 IhrFussel But it should work right?
19:35 rubenwardy here's a less hacky way: https://github.com/rubenwardy/capturetheflag/blob/master/mods/report/init.lua#L1-L26
19:37 benrob0329 joined #minetest-hub
19:38 rdococ I would personally use minetest.serialize and .deserialize
19:38 rubenwardy it's overkill
19:39 rubenwardy but basically equivilent
19:39 rubenwardy both those functions are implemented in lua as a recursive function
19:39 rubenwardy so not as efficient as concat
19:40 rubenwardy although
19:41 rubenwardy it could be made much simpler with serialize if you use a key-value dictionary

19:45 tumeninodes new idea. next time a release is due, just mention it as TBA and leave it at that :P Never ever give an actual date
19:45 rdococ I wasn't aware Minetest 0.5.0 had a release date
19:45 rdococ does it?
19:46 rubenwardy yes
19:46 rubenwardy I agree
19:46 rubenwardy also, he's refering to 0.4.17
