19:35 TenPlus1 Hi folks
19:35 LoneWolfHT Hai
19:35 TenPlus1 hey Lonewolf :)
19:39 MTDiscord <wwar> Hello
19:39 TenPlus1 hey wwar, how's the day ?
19:39 MTDiscord <wwar> Was building myself in Xanadu
19:39 MTDiscord <wwar> you?
19:39 TenPlus1 just finished work :) chilling with coffee
19:40 sofar joined #minetest-hub
19:40 MTDiscord <wwar> I installed dmobs to check it and maybe edit some stuffs
19:40 Krock VanessaE: no, I'm neither familiar with biome_lib nor do I know well how decorations work. I only have a overall rough knowledge
19:40 TenPlus1 wb sofar
19:41 VanessaE Krock: no worries.
19:41 Krock VanessaE: however perlin noises can exceed the 0 and 1 boundaries. I suggest clamping
19:41 MTDiscord <wwar> Ten.. can you confirm that you let Kelena make the discord server for Xanadu? If you do so they will let us add it in the server list of MT discords
19:42 TenPlus1 yeah, players were given free reign with the discord server since they use it more :D
19:42 MTDiscord <wwar> Ok thanks you :D
19:42 MTDiscord <wwar> @GreenXenith
19:43 MTDiscord <GreenXenith> Coolio
19:43 TenPlus1 good to see some optimizations on the biome_lib vanessa :D
19:44 VanessaE :)
19:44 MTDiscord <wwar> Ten.. did you make that asteroids mode?
19:45 TenPlus1 no, paramat did the original and it was added to by shara and ulukai and myself :D
19:45 MTDiscord <wwar> ah
19:46 MTDiscord <wwar> It says its by you in content db
19:46 TenPlus1 I added it to contentdb after the optimization to run on minetest 5.x
19:47 MTDiscord <wwar> ah, so.. you cant check how he made floating biomes?
19:48 TenPlus1 it's all voxelmanip based, that I know :)
19:48 TenPlus1 it's a way to edit maps directly and add decoration using lua, which isnt as fast as the engine
19:49 MTDiscord <wwar> ah, thats why its laggy a bit while exploring space?
19:50 TenPlus1 yup and caverealms also...  eventually caverealms can be converted to the new underground biomes though but for now engine generated realms in the sky is limited to floatlands
19:51 MTDiscord <wwar> never noticed lags in caverealms
19:54 MTDiscord <wwar> so.. anyone is working in using something faster than lua?
19:54 VanessaE use luajit ;)
19:54 TenPlus1 we already use luajit with data clearning at end so we dont get OOM errors :) yay!
19:54 TenPlus1 it's been heavily optimized
19:54 MTDiscord <wwar> luajit is fast enough?
19:55 TenPlus1 luajit is great and does give a good speed boost, if you use minetest in linux it's already installed :D
19:56 MTDiscord <wwar> ah, great, will you convert biome mods to LuaJit then?
19:57 TenPlus1 any mods you have already use luajit if it's installed already :)
19:57 VanessaE yeah, it's completely automatic.
19:57 MTDiscord <wwar> Ah thats interesting
19:57 VanessaE the only time you have to detect luajit is if you want to use something it provides that Minetest's normal Lua implementation does not, like FFI
19:58 VanessaE but normally, It Just Works™
19:58 MTDiscord <wwar> i see
19:58 MTDiscord <wwar> Is there a mod that makes people able to make their own biomes? Like with mobs redo anyone can make a mob..
19:58 VanessaE that's what biome_lib was originally for
19:59 VanessaE but now you can just do it with some mod API calls and let the engine handle it
19:59 VanessaE look in mtg/mods/default/mapgen.lua
19:59 MTDiscord <wwar> alright will check, (i wont make a biome tho)
19:59 TenPlus1 yeah the engine has it's own commands for biome additions and decoration :D
19:59 VanessaE you'll see how it creates the standard biomes like taiga or rundra
19:59 VanessaE tundra*
19:59 MTDiscord <wwar> Just want to know how those work
20:01 TenPlus1 wwar, this was added a while ago to add additional floating biomes: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/4503
20:01 MTDiscord <wwar> oh nice
20:02 MTDiscord <wwar> So you'll make some floating biomes?
20:02 TenPlus1 that's an issue to add a feature to the mapgen to allow them
20:04 MTDiscord <wwar> You planning to make that issue?
20:04 TenPlus1 it's already added, although quite old
20:04 MTDiscord <wwar> oh, hope they will look into it
20:05 TenPlus1 it's a well saught after feature
20:06 MTDiscord <wwar> That will make a use for the 31k Y lvls above ground
20:07 TenPlus1 yeah :) then we can have proper realms added through mapgen with their own skybox and gravity etc :D
20:08 MTDiscord <wwar> yea, i'd like to see those
20:08 MTDiscord <wwar> Huge improvement in MT
20:09 MTDiscord <wwar> i think mt generates cooler biomes than mc
20:09 TenPlus1 we've seen many new improvements in the 5.x series :) setting player velocity and new formspec elements are a few
20:10 MTDiscord <wwar> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/747163533212516474/834883769018089522/Screenshot_2021-04-22-23-11-30.png
20:10 MTDiscord <wwar> MC doesnt generate cool stuffs like this
20:10 TenPlus1 wow, much protection :P
20:11 MTDiscord <wwar> Will hide them after :þ
20:11 MTDiscord <wwar> Building a huge me above that
20:13 TenPlus1 nice, will pop on server for a look around :D cya there
20:13 TenPlus1 by folks o///
