00:18 Topic for #minetest is now Please be patient when asking questions; someone may not be around. | Main website: http://minetest.net | Development channel: #minetest-delta
00:18 VanessaE just noticed that. :-)
00:19 NakedFury there always seems to be a race to see who has their name in the motd for the longest

02:26 cy1 woooo public key challenge/response authentication for minetest works!
02:27 cy1 uh, not that I transmitted it over the network yet.
02:28 VanessaE um..cool? :-)
02:28 cy1 ...yeah not much to celebrate really
02:28 cy1 but what I'm trying to say is it will definitely work given enough effort, whereas before I was not so sure!
02:29 VanessaE so what's this do exactly? :-)
02:30 VanessaE a replacement for the usual username/passwd authentication mechanism for servers?
02:30 cy1 y-yeah.
02:30 cy1 you login with username = key fingerprint, and it issues a challenge, etc.
02:30 cy1 it doesn't do anything so much as solve two problems
02:31 cy1 1) the server has to store the passwords of every client in plaintext.
02:31 cy1 2) the client can't store passwords in plaintext on disk in the config file.
02:31 cy1 2*) so you have to use a password you can remember
02:31 cy1 combine 1 and 2 and you're asking for disaster
02:31 VanessaE and I take it the client/server also currently exchange said credentials over plain text also?
02:31 cy1 heh, yeah
02:32 VanessaE good, so that means we'll have a proper server/port/username/passwd manager soon? ;-)
02:32 cy1 some server gets cracked, all the passwords are the one password people use for everything, because you can only remember so many passwords...
02:32 cy1 yes, that is what I hope to do after this pubkey authentication works.
02:33 cy1 tricky though...
02:33 VanessaE nice
02:34 cy1 so you have a public key, which has a fingerprint. tail end of that fingerprint is your username, done. :I
02:34 cy1 that's what GnuPG does
02:34 cy1 but ofc 8 random hexadecimal numerals isn't exactly people's favorite idea of what to call each other
02:35 cy1 so you can set a sort of alias or nickname in GnuPG
02:35 cy1 but why should I be the only one allowed to use the alias cy?
02:35 cy1 and you VanessaE
02:35 cy1 surely there are other vanessa e's out there
02:36 VanessaE Probably :-)
02:36 cy1 so should it be that your alias appears over your head in the game, or your 8-digit ID thing? or both somehow?
02:36 VanessaE naw, just the user name is enough
02:36 cy1 what if there are two people w/ the same name? how to make the difference between them apparant, without forbidding them from using a name?
02:37 VanessaE wouldn't the server, by nature, tend to only allow one of those people on?
02:38 cy1 could make it so the server only allows users to have one unique username. but that 8-digit ID is exactly what that is, so why try to make it work with english, spaces, capital letters, numerals and such?
02:38 VanessaE I mean, if I sign in as VanessaE, and there's not already an account by that name, it creates one.....and if there is, I can't sign on because, effectively, I've given the wrong password or whatever?
02:38 cy1 the thing is, with pubkey authentication, your username is calculated. so you don't have to pick it. nobody can steal it though.
02:38 cy1 so you'd sign on, and then it'd ask you "Oh by the way what would you like to be called?"
02:39 VanessaE THAT would be okay
02:39 cy1 Might be best...
02:39 cy1 Then you'd see like
02:39 VanessaE no one says the server has to allow more than one person to use the same nickname.
02:39 cy1 well for me it'd be
02:39 cy1 Cy (0AC7DA56)
02:40 cy1 So another Cy you'd see the different number.
02:40 VanessaE no, that won'
02:40 VanessaE won't work
02:40 VanessaE normal peons won't know the difference
02:40 VanessaE ;)
02:40 cy1 could also have it so you could make certain users green or red like they're your friends or what
02:40 cy1 the difference is right there. don't have to know why it's different, to know that it is.
02:40 VanessaE yeah but people won't know that
02:40 cy1 well they won't have to
02:41 cy1 until someone starts spoofing people
02:41 VanessaE they'll just see "OH, that's Cy (why is his name followed with gibberish?)"
02:41 cy1 and then they'll learn quick
02:41 VanessaE and someone else signs on - same nickname but a different hex code
02:41 cy1 yes
02:41 VanessaE "Oh, he's on twice (and still more gibberish)"
02:41 cy1 ideally it'd be a trust network
02:41 VanessaE never rely on trust.
02:41 cy1 where you had circles of friends and such
02:41 cy1 and it'd just say how friendly some guy is likely to be
02:42 VanessaE no, don't do that
02:42 cy1 but in the absence of that people just have to intuitively recognize
02:42 VanessaE that invites cliques.
02:42 cy1 those 8 digits
02:42 cy1 no it's different from cliques
02:42 VanessaE I know
02:42 VanessaE but that's how people will use it
02:43 VanessaE think of your audience.
02:43 cy1 with a clique you need a consensus to let someone in, otherwise drama. so they force each other to not let people in.
02:43 VanessaE 12 year olds who can't find their asses with both hands, a road map and a flashlight ;-)
02:43 cy1 so they get closed off and reject ppl for no reason.
02:43 VanessaE (no offense if you're 12)
02:44 cy1 with a pubkey trust network, you can let anyone in your circle, without as bad of consequences on others in it.
02:44 cy1 so people can be chill if you make friends because it won't force them to make friends.
02:44 VanessaE I still think you're overcomplicating things
02:44 cy1 the trust network just lists who you're friends with, not that your friends have to be friends w/ each other
02:45 cy1 so cliques can stay open
02:45 cy1 and people can find their friends without pressure to be mean
02:45 cy1 well yeah it's totally way complicated
02:45 cy1 so i'm just going to add the (xxxxxxxx) at the end
02:45 cy1 let people construct these networks in their brain
02:46 cy1 but it's a fun thing to work on, to try to get a computer to do it.
02:46 VanessaE nonono
02:46 VanessaE one server, one nickname, no hex gibberish :-)
02:46 VanessaE no one's gonna be able to remember that one hex code means one guy, but a different one means someone else
02:46 VanessaE they're gonna see the name and ignore the rest
02:47 cy1 who is allowed to have what nickname?
02:47 VanessaE first come, first served, with a way to cancel an account
02:47 cy1 you just see a bunch of jlo199934 when you force unique names.
02:47 VanessaE nothing wrong with that?
02:48 VanessaE we've been seeing that kinda stuff since the first networks came into existence.
02:48 VanessaE (except it's usually the user's birth year or the year the account was created)
02:49 VanessaE thing is,
02:49 VanessaE if you try to allow multiple people to share a name, what happens when one of them starts griefing?
02:49 VanessaE do you really wanna deal with things like "what was the hex code after the person's name?"
02:50 VanessaE "no, that was someone else"  "NO, it was XXXXXX I saw it you suck this server sucks OMGWTFBBQW.."
02:50 NakedFury I like the system but I also see the fraud problems
02:50 VanessaE (insert random string of expletives here)
02:50 NakedFury also it sucks to have many nakedury1244 too
02:50 NakedFury or cy3
02:50 VanessaE certainly so
02:51 NakedFury it means another person tried to copy your name and had to add numbers
02:51 NakedFury I hate ign with numbers
02:51 NakedFury then adding colors to second name choosers create a problem. why does he have a colored name and not me?
02:51 VanessaE I can see uses for them; on 30001, one of the users there is 'thefamilygrog66'.  I don't know what the 66 means, but given he's a family man, I'd venture a guess its his birth year.
02:52 NakedFury how to deal with this issue in a good manner? cy already madea step forward and a good one
02:52 VanessaE absolutely
02:53 NakedFury could it be possible so copy/second names had the hex?
02:53 VanessaE any kind of crypto layer is better than clear text.
02:53 NakedFury like original VanessaE has no hex
02:53 cy1 grog is a clan, not sure the details
02:53 cy1 saw one of their houses before
02:53 VanessaE now THAT might be workable.
02:53 NakedFury any other vanessae after her has a hex?
02:53 VanessaE the original nickname is plain, any copies have the hex code
02:54 VanessaE (but I still think the hex codes will be ignored by most pepple)
02:54 VanessaE people*
02:54 NakedFury of course that adds a new problem
02:54 cy1 I'd also have an interface where you could see what name had which keys.
02:54 NakedFury name taking
02:54 VanessaE no
02:54 VanessaE getting too geeky now, Cy
02:54 cy1 no like for admins
02:55 NakedFury in case of such a system would it be possible to add a time limit for saving the name?
02:55 cy1 you could go "the griefier was named naked of the fury"
02:55 cy1 and admins go look at all the keys with the name nakedfury
02:55 NakedFury any tool for admins is a good tool
02:55 cy1 yeah, letting people bogart names is bad
02:55 cy1 i2p has that problem
02:56 cy1 like 90% of the named eepsites were just around for a week and now in the db by that name dead forever.
02:56 NakedFury if a player doesnt use his name for a given amount of time, the account is deleted, time set by admin
02:56 VanessaE Newnet does that
02:56 cy1 well, at least the alias for that account
02:56 NakedFury it prevents someone stealing names of trusted players
02:56 VanessaE after 30 days, your nick is deregistered.
02:56 VanessaE (I think)
02:57 NakedFury perhap even add an admin tool for quick account deleting
02:57 cy1 well ok so per-server unique human readable names, first come first serve, that expire after like 30days or w/ev.
02:57 cy1 NakedFury: fairly sure /ban does that
02:58 NakedFury an impostor vanessae connects faster on minetest.ru then the real vanessae is f u ck
02:58 NakedFury ok
02:58 VanessaE make it 60 days
02:58 cy1 then a thing where you can see the hex ID if you want
02:58 cy1 VanessaE: admin configurable
02:58 VanessaE some people play rarely
02:58 VanessaE ok
02:58 cy1 but what if a griefer gets somone's name
02:58 cy1 and then they come back?
02:58 VanessaE simple:
02:59 cy1 and they're like "I want my name back" and the griefer is like "lolololo no"
02:59 cy1 Like DNS squatters.
02:59 VanessaE nickserv has a ghost command, no?
02:59 cy1 DNS squatters are so horrible.
02:59 NakedFury it helps having a forum topic of the server and asking for those things too
02:59 VanessaE or otherwise a way to force the release of a name
02:59 cy1 VanessaE: yeah, but after the name expires...
02:59 VanessaE or at the very least, have a way to contact the server admin to resolve the dispute.
03:00 cy1 sure
03:00 cy1 IRC :B
03:00 VanessaE :P
03:01 VanessaE so then the name expires - but no one can re-register it for say 60 days further, and then only the person who last had it.
03:01 cy1 "I've got the name you want, and I log in every 59 days to keep it. Pay me 26 gold coins and I'll stop doing that so you can have it." = DNS squatters
03:01 VanessaE well thaty makes no sense actually.
03:01 VanessaE forget the 60 days there.
03:02 VanessaE if it expires, give the last owner say 90 dyas to re-register it, and in that time, only he or she can do so (by supplying the same username/passwd as before)...  if they don't in that time, it becomes open season
03:02 VanessaE days*
03:03 cy1 oh oh
03:03 cy1 I got it
03:03 cy1 arena battul
03:03 VanessaE ?
03:03 cy1 punchpunchpunchpunchpunchpunchpunch
03:03 VanessaE heh
03:03 cy1 make an arena and have people duket it ou for names
03:03 cy1 ...duke it out
03:03 VanessaE I think not :-)
03:06 cy1 just make squatting instant grounds for losing your name, especially trying to sell it
03:06 cy1 for
03:06 cy1 anything
03:06 cy1 even like, just mese
03:06 VanessaE agrees.
03:06 VanessaE agreed.
03:06 cy1 then there's no motivation to sit on nicknames forever
03:06 VanessaE and if you register a name and don't start playing within, oh, a week, it gets registered.
03:06 VanessaE de-registered that is
03:09 cy1 anyway can have sophisticated stuff like that later, so for now it's just each player has a nickname
03:09 cy1 and if yours is taken it cries
03:09 VanessaE heh
03:09 VanessaE let's just keep it simple
03:09 VanessaE first-come, first-served,
03:09 VanessaE and EVERYONE NEEDS A PASSWORD.
03:09 cy1 w-well yeah
03:10 VanessaE for G*d sakes, no empty password allowed.  rip that function right out of the game.
03:10 cy1 you don't use a private key without a password
03:10 cy1 can have an agent store it though, in theory...
03:11 VanessaE now,
03:11 VanessaE you still have to allow plaintext authentication for older clients
03:11 VanessaE (and servers)
03:11 VanessaE but of course it should lean toward your crypto layer if available
03:12 cy1 so, empty passwords are ok then? :x
03:12 VanessaE does the game allow for a way for the server to pass a message to the client to tell the user "Your client is outdated.  Please upgrade as soon as possible.  [Proceed]"  (after which it continues in cleartext mode)
03:12 VanessaE ?
03:13 opticlove joined #minetest
03:13 opticlove joined #minetest
03:13 VanessaE no, no empty passwords period, even over cleartext.
03:14 VanessaE just force the user to create a password - the functionality is already there anyway
03:14 cy1 Sure, the server can basically force clients to do anything.
03:14 cy1 arbitrarily executed code
03:14 VanessaE okay
03:14 cy1 that's why the private key stuff has to be a separate process entirely
03:14 cy1 otherwise servers are just like sendme.urpassword
03:14 VanessaE right, don't want the risk of some kind of weird exploit
03:16 VanessaE either way, compared to the rest of the game engine, this stuff seems rather trivial to implement
03:16 VanessaE (in the sense that it shouldn't take a rocket surgeon to think of it)
03:18 VanessaE zzz
03:35 VanessaE bbl, bedtime
04:43 cy1 ugggh whyyy can't irrlicht use gtk....
04:45 FreeFull What would it use gtk for?
05:24 Japa_werk joined #minetest
05:29 cy1 FreeFull: for input elements, like the chat thingy, and also for portable stuff, portable threading...
05:29 cy1 and the clipboard :x
05:32 cy1 grumble, except windows pthreads *is* portable threading grumble

07:46 Calinou today is my minetest birthday :D
08:27 cy1 huh
08:27 cy1 so my challenge/response protocol has been implemented
08:27 cy1 at least the server compiles haven't tried the client
08:28 cy1 yes I realize the irony.
08:28 cy1 too tired to continue. maybe later...
08:39 brobostigon good morning everyone.

16:17 bas080 Was wondering is in the lua you can edit an attribute of a node. For example edit the tile_images attribute of a node
16:17 marktraceur bas080: No, the node definitions aren't stored per-node
16:17 marktraceur Your best bet is to register different nodes for whatever you need to do
16:18 bas080 Understood... So i have to register new nodes
16:18 NakedFury joined #minetest
16:18 bas080 thanks marktraceur
16:19 marktraceur Yup
16:21 bas080 Is it possible to clone the attibutes of a known node, give it a different name, and then change some of it's attributes?
16:22 jordach copy and paste
16:23 bas080 What does the get_meta function do? Does that get all the nodes attributes?
16:25 darkrose no it gets the metadata
16:25 Tukeke joined #minetest
16:26 bas080 I am trying to make grassy variants of the wood/stone/tree etc so grass will grow allongside of the block. I don't want to manually define all these nodes but let a for look make them for me. So all attributes like the sound etc is used from the other block only the image_tiles attibute is replaced.
16:29 Tukeke joined #minetest
16:30 bas080 But for now copy past wil do. :P

17:16 NakedFury hey vanessae
17:17 NakedFury good [evening, morning, night]
17:18 marktraceur NakedFury: *shakes head* good afternoon!
17:18 NakedFury forgot that one
17:18 marktraceur (OK, fine, it's 10:18 here)
17:19 jordach marktraceur, do you live in CA?
17:19 jordach (california)
17:20 marktraceur jordach: Yessir, in San Francisco, why?
17:20 jordach now hit the beach - should be sunny outside
17:20 marktraceur jordach: Brr, it's a bit chilly for that
17:21 jordach lol
17:21 jordach sunny where i am
17:21 marktraceur jordach: It's a little sunny, just not super-warm
17:21 jordach is here
17:21 jordach 21'C
17:22 marktraceur 14.1'C for me
17:23 marktraceur Huh, you aren't that much warmer, actually
17:23 marktraceur Forecast says 21, but I'm skeptical
17:23 marktraceur (wunderground, y u no have Kelvin? :P)
17:24 jordach then 0 kelvin
17:24 jordach BBRRRRRRRRR
17:24 darkrose 8.6°C mmm
17:24 marktraceur jordach: Even if our fingers didn't fall off, the network cables would no longer function properly
17:24 jordach well
17:24 jordach the pc would have no heating issues
17:24 marktraceur darkrose: What happened to that "summer" thing?
17:25 marktraceur jordach: True, but it wouldn't be terribly responsive either
17:25 jordach actually, electronics go quicker in the cold for some reason
17:25 marktraceur Just like my currently-turned-off PC has no heating issues
17:25 marktraceur jordach: Perhaps to a point, but 0K is where all energy stops
17:26 jordach yes
17:27 marktraceur I guess the really good news is, it would be a lot more energy-efficient
17:28 jordach yup
17:28 VanessaE hi all
17:28 jordach hi VanessaE
17:29 jordach im making my own minetest fork
17:29 jordach from 0.2
17:29 darkrose marktraceur: I'm in australia, summer's months away
17:29 VanessaE so I saw
17:31 marktraceur darkrose: My condolences--so are you up really late, or up really early?
17:31 marktraceur Or are my timezones off?
17:32 darkrose technically I'm up late, but this is kinda normal for me... timezones are silly
17:32 marktraceur darkrose: Indeed.
17:33 marktraceur Everyone, good *evening*. It's 17:00 in Greenwich, and damn it, everybody should have dinner at the same time as Britain.
17:34 * marktraceur is totally ready to have this conversation again in three days when we once again realize that timezones are weird
17:36 VanessaE put everyone on GMT and to hell with daylight savings :-)
17:36 darkrose ... and let's not even mention daylight "let's f' about with the clock for no real reason" time
17:36 VanessaE beat ya to it, darkrose :)
17:36 * darkrose glares at VanessaE for the pre-emption
17:36 darkrose :p
17:36 VanessaE hehe
17:37 marktraceur git merge darkrose VanessaE -m "Merge two gripes about daylight savings"
17:37 marktraceur Damn, conflicts.
17:40 Calinou git commit marktraceur

17:42 marktraceur (arguments, whatever)
17:42 Calinou it does
17:42 Calinou git commit -a < commit all changes
17:42 Calinou I often do this
17:42 Calinou "bad pratices" FTW
17:43 marktraceur Oh, git commit <file> will only commit the files mentioned
17:43 marktraceur As opposed to git add <file>; git commit
17:43 marktraceur Calinou: Also, git commit marktraceur -m "Fix memory leaks"
17:43 Calinou when I use git commit, a nano prompt comes up, then I type message, save and quit
17:43 * marktraceur marches off victorious
17:44 * Calinou hits marktraceur's legs
17:44 Calinou you can't "march" anymore :D
17:44 marktraceur Fair enough
17:44 * marktraceur Aprils off victorious
17:44 Calinou lol

17:51 Calinou noob_, encase the griefers in holes :P
17:51 marktraceur noob_: "There's a problem on minetest.ru's server" would have given us much more to go on, just for future reference, ask the base question rather than your current idea for a solution
17:51 noob_ well ive already trapped them
17:52 noob_ i do that i trap them
17:52 noob_ but then they get on on other accounts
17:52 noob_ ban the ip then they wont get on...
17:54 marktraceur noob_: True. VanessaE has been pinged, wait a bit and she'll likely come on to help.
17:54 noob_ they arent on now
17:54 noob_ but when they come on it makes me mad cuz its hard to stop them :/
17:54 noob_ i use a brand new mese pick and dig em like 100 under

17:59 jordach why
18:00 marktraceur jordach: I dunno, if you wanted to aggressively recruit for your fork, that might be helpful information

18:50 marktraceur LandMine: FreeDroidRPG is kinda fun; ToME is also a nice RPG (though more turn based)....I've also tried ZeroBallistics with some success
18:51 Calinou sauerbraten, red eclipse, xonotic, warsow, openarena, paintball2, minecraft
18:51 Calinou freedroidRPG? tome? zeroballistics?
18:51 Calinou ^ opensource explained
18:52 * Calinou only plays multiplayer games
18:52 brobostigon i quite like a sudoku.
18:52 marktraceur Calinou: I'm sure you're a very popular man
18:52 Calinou lol
18:52 Calinou sudoku, lol
18:52 brobostigon yeah.
18:53 brobostigon :(
18:53 jordach who plays chess
18:53 marktraceur LandMine: A simple Tetris game and a Minesweeper implementation also don't go amiss
18:53 brobostigon jordach: me,
18:53 marktraceur jordach: Once in a while :)
18:53 Calinou minesweeper/tetris, derp
18:53 Calinou we're in 2012
18:53 marktraceur Calinou: LOL U PLAY PAINTBALL2 THAT GAME IS T3H SUXXORS
18:53 jordach Calinou, we like the older games that dont wan't every processor requirement ever made
18:53 brobostigon i also like a game of mahjongg, every so often.
18:54 marktraceur Calinou: Fanboyism != here, please
18:54 NakedFury brobostigon, what mahjong, the pairing version or the real mahjong thingy?
18:54 brobostigon NakedFury: i have learnt both.
18:55 LandMine i just like FPS
18:55 LandMine like warinc, soldierfront
18:55 LandMine A.V.A etc etc
18:56 Tukeke joined #minetest
18:56 NakedFury well I prefer strategy games, specially real time and space based. I also like shooters but prefer them to be team based, not super quick like quake clones or arcade like call of duty
18:56 marktraceur NakedFury: <out of character> have you ever played a Half-Life mod called Hostile Intent?
18:56 NakedFury no
18:57 NakedFury not many hl mods
18:57 NakedFury I sort of dont like any horror stuff at all
18:57 * jordach SOUNDS THE marktraceur USED A NON FOSS PROGRAM SIRENS
18:58 marktraceur jordach: It was five years ago, I was young and stupid
18:58 jordach lol
18:58 marktraceur NakedFury: H/I wasn't horror, it was just intensely tactical and team based
18:58 marktraceur Not to mention a great stab at realistic shooter gameplay
18:58 NakedFury well I have hl2
18:58 NakedFury started, unfinished
18:59 marktraceur NakedFury: <back in character> sorry to hear that :P
18:59 NakedFury I have counter strike but really hate not aiming
18:59 Tukeke joined #minetest
18:59 NakedFury feels like the whole game is based on hip shooting
19:00 Calinou <marktraceur> Calinou: LOL U PLAY PAINTBALL2 THAT GAME IS T3H SUXXORS
19:00 Calinou lol
19:00 jordach VanessaE, http://woolyss.com/chipmusic-plugins.php?s=basic64 now hit the play button to hear push it by slat and pepa in c64
19:00 Calinou why?
19:01 NakedFury ohh I also like simulation games
19:01 jordach NakedFury, age of empires?
19:01 Calinou CS/HL suck
19:01 NakedFury yes
19:01 jordach Calinou, quit the hating
19:02 marktraceur NakedFury: If you hate hip-shooting, you'd love H/I
19:02 NakedFury RTS games, FPS/TPS(first or third person) TBS(turn based) SIm
19:02 marktraceur You cannot, as in, it is physically impossible, to shoot without raising ironsights
19:03 marktraceur Add to that no HUD, no reticule, very little information on the screen, you have a really realistic game
19:03 NakedFury no bullet info either?
19:03 jordach or do a me and make my own game like that
19:03 marktraceur NakedFury: Not a one. You can't even see scores, because it would make it painfully obvious that you'd killed someone
19:05 Calinou H/I?
19:05 Calinou inb4 no sounds and no main menu
19:05 marktraceur Calinou: Hostile Intent
19:05 Tukeke joined #minetest
19:05 Calinou free? opensource?
19:05 marktraceur Calinou: Sound is an integral part of it, if you can hear someone walking near you you can catch them off guard
19:06 marktraceur Calinou: Not that I know of....well, based on Half-Life, so at least part of your stack would be non-free
19:07 Calinou :|
19:07 Calinou this also means paid
19:07 marktraceur Calinou: Half-Life would have to be, yeah
19:07 Calinou half life 1?
19:07 marktraceur For all of these reasons, I would avoid it
19:07 marktraceur Yep
19:07 opticlove joined #minetest
19:08 marktraceur I'm sure there's a similar mod for a free FPS, just haven't looked for it yet
19:08 Calinou <every single fucking AAA game dev> keep the game paid, even when it was released 50 years ago
19:08 Calinou HL engine isn't free
19:08 NakedFury source engine
19:08 NakedFury old
19:08 marktraceur AAA?
19:09 Calinou = "super-prod" game
19:09 Calinou the average game you find at stores
19:09 marktraceur Ah
19:10 Calinou opensourcing & making free old games would not hurt anyone
19:10 marktraceur Similar to "A-list"? Something like that?
19:11 NakedFury aaa = you probably need millions for it
19:11 darkrose Average And Ancient
19:14 marktraceur Calinou: Probably better not to hold your breath; or at the very least, try joining up with one of the existing free options (which I see you've done, from your list above)
19:14 Calinou I mostly play FOSS games, yes
19:14 Calinou darkrose, heh
19:15 Calinou <LandMine> A.V.A etc etc
19:15 Calinou I hate AVA with a burning passion

23:10 Riddle riddle has minetest question
23:12 Riddle if i make my own world gen file, will it run After the other and add my stuff? or is there a better way?
23:20 NakedFury I think it runs yours
23:20 marktraceur Riddle: It will run after most other things. Why do you ask?
23:22 Riddle can't find my new ores >.>
23:23 Riddle mod name is right, blockname = right, spawns where it finds stone, i don't get it
23:25 NakedFury it replaces stone?
23:26 Riddle yeah
23:26 Riddle should
23:26 Riddle not much
23:26 Riddle same way the default works ?
23:26 NakedFury if it completely replaces stone you could change name
23:27 Riddle well it generates ore, in stone
23:27 marktraceur Riddle: Posting the code would be easiest for us
23:27 Riddle generate_ore("mitchsmod:stone_with_obsidian", "default:stone", minp, maxp, seed+6, 1/24/24/24, 6,27, -31000, -64)
23:28 marktraceur Riddle: Pastebin would be best :)
23:28 marktraceur (and "mitchsmod" isn't a terribly descriptive name)
23:29 marktraceur Riddle: And you're looking below -64, correct?
23:30 Riddle yes
23:30 Riddle i am :P
23:30 Riddle mitch = my common user
23:30 marktraceur Mmmkay
23:30 Riddle mymod rlly, gonna rename l8r
23:30 marktraceur Riddle: Pastebin of all code, please
23:31 Riddle on it
23:32 Riddle http://pastebin.com/WQht9T4h
23:33 marktraceur Fix all the bugs!!!!
23:33 marktraceur Ew, whitespace
23:33 Riddle wut bugs >.>   its copy pasta from default
23:34 marktraceur Riddle: You have 6 lines of whitespace. That's just silly.
23:34 Riddle indeed, i use that space for comments as i cut and paste
23:35 marktraceur Riddle: Where are these nodes defined? Do you know that the definitions work?
23:35 Riddle the nodes for the blocks are all in my init file
23:35 marktraceur Mmkay
23:35 Riddle they work when i make crafting recipes for them :P
23:36 marktraceur Oh
23:36 marktraceur Riddle: Your on_generated function doesn't have an 'end'
23:36 marktraceur Let me know if that fixes it, it probably will
23:37 Riddle :D
23:37 Riddle lets see
23:41 Riddle can't find any... whats the noclip? there is one isn't there?
23:48 marktraceur Riddle: What?
23:49 marktraceur Did that fix work?
23:49 marktraceur What about noclip?
23:49 Riddle 9 is there a noclip and fly built in game?
23:49 Riddle i can't find any of the ore
23:49 Riddle so i was hoping to no clip down and look around alot
23:49 marktraceur Yeah, 'j' and 'k' should enable free_move and fast_move
23:49 marktraceur (default keybindings)
23:50 Riddle thanks
23:50 Riddle any fly?
23:50 Riddle it says no priviledge
23:50 marktraceur free_move enables it, use 'e' and '<space>' to go down and up respectively
23:51 marktraceur Riddle: Then change the default privileges in your settings.json
23:51 marktraceur Or summat
23:52 Riddle >.< i'm idiot. can't get it workin, guess i'll test via digging
23:52 marktraceur (things I learned today: "summat" is used as slang for "somewhat", I've been using the UK-only meaning of "something" from literature or some other influence)
23:52 Riddle :D
23:53 marktraceur Ah, it's not settings.json
23:53 marktraceur Sorry
23:53 marktraceur minetest.conf
23:53 marktraceur (I'm switching between two projects today)
23:53 Riddle fly_mode = 1 will do it? i added that, no bones
23:53 marktraceur free_move, maybe
23:54 marktraceur Or just give yourself the proper privileges
23:54 marktraceur It should have a list of available ones
23:54 Riddle idk how in singleplayer
23:54 marktraceur Riddle: In minetest.conf, there should be a setting for it
23:55 marktraceur At the very least, 'default_privileges' or some such
23:55 marktraceur Taoki[laptop]|aw: Awwwww.
23:55 Taoki[laptop]|aw :3
23:56 marktraceur Bye, Riddle!
23:58 * marktraceur moves to the desktop, work day is over!
