00:43 * Sokomine hides :-)
00:43 Sokomine updating the colormachine isn't as easy as i had planned
00:48 Shara Sokomine: Spent some time tonight updating the version of it I use on RC... so I can echo the sentiment :P
00:50 Sokomine Shara, VanessaE: one of the largest problem is that there's no real way for me to map colors...
00:51 VanessaE how do you mean?
01:43 Sokomine knowing which color from one palette could be mapped to the color of another palette would be great
01:43 Sokomine i don't know a way of getting those color informations (apart from the index in the palette) other than searching for a library for reading the palette files and decoding them that way. but that seems a bit too complex
01:44 Sokomine manual mapping just wasn't satisfying at all
01:44 VanessaE use the get_paletteidx() call, if it returns nil, the requested color is not in the requested palette.
01:45 Sokomine unifieddyes or general?
01:45 VanessaE UD.
01:46 Sokomine that's helpful - but only for those servers where ud is installed
01:49 Sokomine hardware coloring is really great. but to get information how color 1 from palette a corresponds to any color from palette b...there just is no way short of decoding the palette file manually. that makes it extremly difficult to display which nodes could be painted with the dye color 1

04:49 sofar VanessaE: alright, so, I cleaned up `steel` and merged the PRs from zeg9's branch
05:25 VanessaE thanks
05:26 VanessaE "cleaned up" though?
05:30 VanessaE oh yeah, descriptions, mod.info, et al.
05:33 sofar it was a modpack, with 1 mod, lol
05:33 VanessaE oh yeah heh
05:35 VanessaE and the forum post is fixed-up too now.
05:39 VanessaE huh.  andersje is still around, he merged my stainedglass PR.

06:01 sofar bot never joins channel, claims is in
06:01 sofar crashes on chatcommands
06:01 sofar meh
06:02 VanessaE nickserv?
06:02 VanessaE well no, that shouldn't matter.
06:02 sofar the bot is online alright
06:03 sofar just not in the channel

09:26 Fixer joined #minetest-hub
09:57 Fixer ohi
10:04 Krock hello Fixer
12:06 VanessaE Krock: please re-check https://github.com/minetest-mods/unifiedbricks/pull/5
12:06 VanessaE something got weird on my end, I had to re-clone blox and unifiedbricks
12:06 VanessaE but that's okay, because I had more to add :)
12:08 Krock got to clone too.
12:08 VanessaE also, check https://github.com/minetest-mods/blox/pull/3 please.  maybe you can see why github says "conflict" even though the repo is clean.
12:09 Krock interesting
12:10 VanessaE right?
12:10 aerozoic joined #minetest-hub
12:11 Krock so fetch --all, pull and rebase master did not help?
12:14 VanessaE I didn't try that
12:14 VanessaE either way, my local repo's clean.
12:14 Krock VanessaE: why is place_param2 no longer required?
12:14 VanessaE I think github got confused by my re-using the same branch.
12:15 Krock the placement prediction does not take that in account but it's an engine issue
12:15 VanessaE oh, because if you include it, it'll force the node to one color always
12:15 VanessaE i.e. it overrides the colored itemstack.
12:16 Krock I see
12:20 Krock the colored bricks and clay does not look too pretty but it works
12:24 VanessaE it's the same as it always was
12:24 DI3HARD139 joined #minetest-hub
12:24 VanessaE with one exception
12:24 VanessaE something in moreblocks is screweing up the rotation of default:wood and default:brick
12:27 Krock because they use param2 to rotate
12:27 Krock it's a MTG issue, if even.
12:32 VanessaE hym.
12:32 VanessaE hm./
12:32 VanessaE ;[p\dscaipoahguo[rehuo[]ghuo[hruo[gahuo[hgruo[af
12:32 VanessaE hm. *slams enter*
12:33 Krock American keyboard layout, that's what I can tell from this
12:34 Krock hmm but then why is ; and \ in there?
12:34 Krock (assuming shift was never pressed)
12:36 Krock merging https://github.com/minetest-mods/technic/pull/438 in a few minutes
12:39 rdococ hmm...
12:40 VanessaE \o/
12:42 VanessaE heh yeah, common QWERTY US layout :P
12:42 Krock merging
12:43 Krock err wait
12:43 Krock *  https://github.com/minetest-mods/unifiedbricks/pull/5
12:44 VanessaE \o/
12:44 rdococ I was given SSH access to xerox123's RPI, but Minetest doesn't seem to recognize most of the mods that I place in the ~/.minetest/mods folder.
12:44 Krock same PR title but different repo
12:44 VanessaE heh
12:46 VanessaE I'm not afraid to say it, I think I've been kicking some measurable ass these past couple weeks :)
12:49 Krock rdococ: wrong named directory or missing mod.conf
12:49 Krock rdococ: or they switched to a RUN_IN_PLACE binary
12:51 rdococ wait, missing mod.conf in the mod itself?
12:53 Krock yes, it is used to tell Minetest about the correct mod name and dependencies, description (5.0.0-dev)
12:54 rdococ the server's not 5.0.0-dev, though
12:54 rdococ and I remember that being unnecessary
12:59 Krock the 5.0.0-dev comment was meant for the dependencies and description only
13:00 rdococ either way, I don't remember mod.conf being necessary for these mods (and there's a few modpacks too).
13:10 rdococ placing them in the world's ./worldmods folder works though
13:14 rdococ hmm, where are player privileges stored?
13:14 rdococ nvm
13:30 rdococ Krock: the problem is with nearly every single mod (mesecons, digilines, etc)
13:33 rdococ either way, how would I specify settings for mods in (world)/worldmods?
13:35 Krock not at all. loaded automatically
13:36 rdococ I meant settings as in the settings you would use to configure, say, the IRC mod to connect to the network you want
13:41 rdococ well, I'm out of ideas as to why it can't even seem to detect that there are mods in .minetest/mods
13:41 rdococ I try to load them but it says they can't even be found
14:06 rdococ it also can't find most mods *with* a mod.conf file
14:09 rdococ where is everyone gone?
14:09 rdococ yes, I know they're just afk or something
14:10 rdococ oh god, I sound like I expect special treatment or something
14:26 rdococ left #minetest-hub
14:48 rdococ joined #minetest-hub
15:04 Krock joined #minetest-hub
15:05 Krock rdococ: settings go into the main minetest.conf
15:06 Krock mods are loaded from ~/.minetest/mods if they're not found then you're in the wrong directory
15:07 Krock mods in modpacks are loaded in the world config file just like a regular mod using "load_mod_<modname> = true" notation
15:08 Fixer_ joined #minetest-hub
15:17 rdococ Krock: the mods were literally in ~/.minetest/mods though
15:18 rdococ and minetest couldn't find most of them
15:27 ANAND joined #minetest-hub
15:29 Krock if it couldn't find some, then it might be because they conflict with another mod (same name) or the dependencies were not satisfied
15:43 twoelk joined #minetest-hub

20:23 IhrFussel Hi guys :D I just implemented the next step to my "MMORPG-ifying" plan for my server... all spawned monsters on the map now have a level which dtermines their max HP and damage
20:25 IhrFussel Before monsters just had a static HP/damage value and players with high levels killed them too easy...now monsters can be level 50 and should be a challenge for high levels too
20:26 Mr_Pardison kool.
20:32 Fixer [oof]

21:18 MinetestBot Megaf: Megaf Server v4 | mt.megaf.info:30003 | Clients: 0/20, 0/0 | Version: 0.4.17-dev / MegafXploreNext | Ping: 13ms
21:44 Megaf what the feck happened to backport-0.4 branch? https://github.com/minetest/minetest/
21:44 Megaf everytime I return to Minetest I get another surprise
21:44 Shara 4.17 is the released bugfix version
21:45 Megaf theres no 4.x branches
21:45 Megaf theres stable-0.4
21:45 Shara Yea, which I assume would actually be 4.17.1 now
21:46 Megaf it was last updated on June 28th
21:46 Megaf does that sound right?
21:46 Shara Possibly.
21:47 Megaf the tags are  still using the old system too
21:48 Megaf meh, I had arguments in the past saying branch stable-0.4 should be used, and devs no, we shall use backport-0.4
21:49 Megaf no they kill 0.x, kill backport and use stable-0.4 of 4.17
21:49 Megaf s/no/now
21:49 Megaf (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
21:49 Megaf s/of/for
21:50 Shara If you want 0.4, just use the 0.4 branch and stop worrying about names.
21:50 Shara I got annoyed with all the changing names and things around as well, but it's just not worth being bothered by
21:51 Megaf I want latest not 5
21:51 Megaf so then I can go to 5
21:51 Megaf because my server is too far behind
21:51 Shara Using 5.0 would be bad at this point (in my opinion)
21:51 Shara Just use current stable, which is the 0.4 branch
21:53 Megaf my terminal application just crashed
21:53 Megaf what!?
21:53 Megaf mate-terminal
21:53 Megaf [20954.113130] mate-terminal[1857]: segfault at 7a0000007a ip 00007fd84794b966 sp 00007ffd11ce9c00 error 4 in libgobject-2.0.so.0.5000.3[7fd847917000+52000]
21:54 Shara You're talking to someone who has the power to make linux crash just by looking at it... so can't help you :D
21:54 Megaf hah!
21:55 Shara (honestly, my experiences using linux on desktop were that bad...)
21:55 Megaf Since I built my own LTS kernel from upstream I didn't have any kernel related problems anymore
21:55 Megaf ~$ uname -a
21:55 Megaf Linux Aluminium 4.9.122-megaf #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Aug 20 18:32:55 IST 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux
21:55 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/1 -- GlowStone code by anonymousAwesome
21:55 Megaf the main reason for me to configure nad build myself was that Debian was no longer shipping a preempt kernel
22:07 ssieb Does it really make a difference for you?
22:09 ssieb Megaf: ?
22:11 rubenwardy Megaf: backport-0.4 is the dev branch for 0.4.17.x
22:12 rubenwardy *was
22:12 Shara That tense use really made me wonder for  a moment :P
22:16 Megaf ssieb: I just like when things make sense and keep making sense
22:16 Megaf I don't like when stuff change for changes sake
22:16 Megaf that's all
22:17 benrob0329 joined #minetest-hub
22:18 Shara Megaf: But nothing makes sense :)
22:19 ssieb Megaf: I was more wondering about the preempt part.
22:20 Megaf ssieb: ah, sorry
22:20 Megaf it makes a lot
22:21 rubenwardy old kernel
22:21 Megaf with the standard debian kernel without any preemption processes would often hog the CPU and specially IO
22:21 Megaf bringing the whole system to a halt
22:21 * rubenwardy is on 418
22:21 Megaf until the hogging processes finished
22:22 Megaf with full preempt enabled I can for example run make using all CPU cores, watch video on youtube and even fly in this flight simulator without issues
22:22 Megaf when before I couldnt run youtube and the flightsim at the same time
22:23 Megaf also now I have a very fine control of CPU and IO priorities that actually work and affect performance as I set it
22:23 rubenwardy sounds wrong to me
22:23 rubenwardy sure you didn't accidentally get a RTS version of Debian?
22:25 rubenwardy Linux rubenPC 4.18.4-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT
22:25 ShadowBot https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/1 -- GlowStone code by anonymousAwesome
22:25 rubenwardy thanks ShadowBot
22:27 behalebabo joined #minetest-hub
22:28 Megaf RTS, you mean just RT, the real time kenrel?
22:28 Megaf RT is the max level of preempt you can get
22:29 Megaf does this look good? cmake $sourcedir -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_SERVER=1 -DBUILD_CLIENT=0 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$installdir -DENABLE_SYSTEM_JSONCPP=1
22:29 Megaf working on a new update script for my server
22:30 Megaf minetest@Minetest:~/building_minetest$ echo $installdir
22:30 Megaf /home/minetest/MegafServerBin
22:30 Megaf minetest@Minetest:~/building_minetest$ echo $sourcedir/
22:30 Megaf /home/minetest/minetest/
22:42 Megaf I always have this dilema, LuaJIT or not LuaJIT
22:45 Shara Toss coin. :)
23:02 Megaf so today one of the very first players of my very first server returned
23:02 Megaf he has been building teh very same structure for like 6 years
23:03 Megaf tell me about dedication
