15:29 BillyS     Finally figured out why the MT server wasn't accepting my SRP packet
15:29 BillyS     I had to use minetest --trace
15:29 BillyS     Not pleasant. :P
15:31 BillyS     ...hmm, my SRP request is malformed somehow
15:31 BillyS     That's what happens when one uses python modules I suppose
15:51 * BillyS   explodes
15:51 rubenwardy lol
15:51 rubenwardy what are you trying to do, btw?
16:14 BillyS     rubenwardy: I'm trying to connect a python client to a MT server
16:16 BillyS     I keep getting this wierd error on the server side though: 2018-11-18 11:16:23: ACTION[Server]: Server::ProcessData(): PacketError: what=Reading outside packet (offset: 2, packet size: 257)
16:17 rubenwardy thought so aha
16:17 rubenwardy are you making a bot?
16:17 BillyS     Not really
16:17 BillyS     I suppose I could
16:17 BillyS     Might be rather cool
16:19 BillyS     rn I'm just trying to get an idea of how videogames communicate over the network
16:19 rubenwardy I see
16:19 BillyS     And MT is a good one to use because I can talk to the devs and I know a bit about it
16:19 BillyS     Although writing a bot might be an interesting application ...
16:20 BillyS     Although idk how MT server owners would feel if I did that. :P
18:01 IhrFussel  Hello there^^ Someone said the server CAN override the death formspec of clients already? I thought that it's not possible
18:01 IhrFussel  Is it a simple minetest.show_formspec() in the on_dieplayer() callback?
18:02 IhrFussel  I mean this PR doesn't affect server sent stuff right? https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/7874
18:17 Krock      yes. it cannot override it. just try sending another formspec
18:17 Krock      that PR is obviously client-side only stuff. does not matter in terms of functionality
18:31 lisac      you can just disable damage and track it yourself
18:31 lisac      then teleport player to spawn when his health goes to 0
18:31 lisac      display your own formspec, etc.
18:32 Krock      rip damage flash
18:32 Krock      and punch sounds
18:39 IhrFussel  That is exactly what I do with my custom HP system
18:40 IhrFussel  damage sound is still played inside my hpchange() callback if hp_change is < 0
18:41 IhrFussel  Only the flash is not really doable via lua
18:42 IhrFussel  Maybe it is... if you add a fullscreen HUD image for a step and remove again...but that would look BAD
18:46 IhrFussel  Also sometimes my players complain about certain text HUDs not disappearing again even though minetest.after() is definitely called ... if that happens with a HUD that could be displayed LOTS of times then my players would have to relog lots of times
