00:51 BillyS     I'm trying to figure out how to write a mod that does map generation (specifically cave networks).  Any documentation on this?
00:53 BillyS     I understand most of it, except the ordeal with perlin noise
00:55 BillyS     Hmm, the octaves seem to define how detailed the noise gets
00:55 BillyS     scale is self-explanatory
00:56 BillyS     Ah, and persist is how much influence each successive octave has ... I think
00:57 BillyS     And I guess spread just kinda spreads it out ...
00:58 BillyS     Hmm, I suppose I just need to mess with it

05:28 jas__      it happens when i user set_player_armor too soon, before the player has fully joined for example.
11:59 jas__      i dedicated my sneak_jump mod to shara.  i haven't done an on/off toggle, yet, but am still thinking about it.  i know you don't like it, but i appreciate the feedback again.

12:00 Shara      Hi jas :)
12:00 jas__      hi :)
12:01 Shara      Might not like playing with it as such, but I do like to see alternatives and so on :)
12:08 jas__      oh good
12:09 jas__      it started an an always-on mod just to re-enable the old movement, but it actually does the food and shows armor :O
12:09 jas__      should probably split out the hud stuff if i can lol.  oh well
12:12 jas__      i have a hunch that the less gravity a player (object) has, the faster is decelerates
17:07 ANAND      Does minetest.check_player_privs(name, {interact = false}) return true only if the player `name` does not have `interact`?
17:08 jas_       i think so yea
17:08 jas_       er, i think u do = true tho
17:08 jas_       or just check_player_privs(name, "interact")
17:09 ANAND      That will return true if the player *has* `interact`
17:09 jas_       oh
17:09 ANAND      I want to ensure that the player *does not* have `interact` :)
17:10 jas_       check_player_privs(name, "interact") isn't `false' if interact=false?  sorry, so confused... plus double negatives ha
17:10 jas_       (/me quietly steps away from the keyboard)
17:11 rubenwardy ANAND: it'll always return true
17:11 ANAND      Oh
17:11 rubenwardy minetest.check_player_privs(name, {interact = false})    is the same as    minetest.check_player_privs(name, {})
17:11 rubenwardy you want       not minetest.check_player_privs(name, {interact = true})
17:12 ANAND      Right... thanks
17:12 rubenwardy chat commands and privileges are 100% implemented in Lua, btw

17:12 rubenwardy well wait
17:12 rubenwardy hmm
17:12 ANAND      I was planning on using one check_player_privs for evaluating whether one priv is true and the other priv is false...
17:12 rubenwardy the engine does know about privileges actually, but it asks Lua for them
18:01 Krock      hi tenplus1 who isn't here
