01:03 VanessaE hm?
01:03 Exio [20:47:16] <VanessaE> ok I've officially decided:  irrlicht 1.8 sucks.
01:03 Exio why? :P
01:03 VanessaE because it's slower and it makes minetest water glitchy.
01:14 PilzAdam bye

01:49 beez anyone remember which mod hold the face player lines, i need to borrow the face player but i forget how its phrased in this...
01:50 kaeza face?
01:50 VanessaE face player lines?
01:51 VanessaE maybe he means the player model?
01:51 kaeza may be
01:51 OldCoder Hi. I'm getting massive crashes in my worlds related to 4seasons and riventest
01:51 OldCoder Which I don't recall hearing of
01:52 OldCoder I have not done updates... Does anybody recognize these names?
01:52 VanessaE haven't used those mods, but 4seasons is generally considered outdated I'd think.
01:52 VanessaE riventest, no idea.
01:52 diemartin joined #minetest
01:52 OldCoder Started with migration... some sort of CPU incompatibility
01:52 OldCoder odd
02:01 sokomine there ought to be no crashes due to 4seasons, but it's not used much anymore. iirc it was lag that led to its removal on the kingarthur server. it was a nice mod
02:01 OWNSyouAll_DESKT joined #minetest
02:06 beez oh shit. i mean like, how when you place a furnace it looks at you on initial place. but i remember you could have them aim up also
02:07 VanessaE that's facedir.
02:07 VanessaE and it's part of the API, many mods can do that.
02:07 VanessaE you probably wanna use the screwdriver
02:08 beez i was wondering where to find that line, thanks
02:08 beez facedir = true?
02:09 beez or more complex?
02:09 VanessaE more complex
02:09 leo_rockway joined #minetest
02:09 VanessaE paramtype2 = "facedir", then you set param2 = somevalue when you add a node.
02:10 VanessaE e.g.  minetest.add_node(pos, {name="default:furnace", param2 = 3})
02:10 VanessaE there's some basic prediction for facedir already, so stuff will usually at least turn to face you on placement anyway
02:10 beez thanks
02:11 beez but i am remaking my personal mod that allows logs to be placed sideways
02:11 beez like minecraft
02:11 VanessaE right
02:11 beez except i had the idea before notch
02:11 beez or was it jeb?
02:11 VanessaE for that (which btw moreblocks has already), you'd use param2 = ....um...  either 0 or 5 I think.
02:11 Exio jeb probably
02:11 beez i think it was 0
02:12 VanessaE dunno, but calinou beat you to it already :)
02:12 beez well i am trying to make my self a full mod for my own use. stuff like this is practice
02:12 VanessaE no prob
02:12 Exio i understand
02:12 VanessaE that's a good start anyway
02:12 Exio trying to do something just for learning :P
02:12 * Exio is using minetest for learning C++
02:12 kaeza most of the (basic) stuff from MC has already been copied to MT
02:12 beez more remembering
02:13 Exio i'm used to C
02:13 kaeza s/copied/"ported"/
02:13 beez i worked on this stuff months ago
02:13 VanessaE kaeza: and some stuff in MT got stolen into MC :)
02:13 beez but then left
02:13 Exio VanessaE: nah
02:13 Exio it is called, doing the right way ;P
02:13 VanessaE heh
02:13 Exio and for now, the "mod api" of minetest
02:13 Exio is amazinly amazing
02:14 beez :P
02:17 beez the dam thing is locked... idk what i did wrong...
02:19 beez hmmm
02:20 Exio don't add more m(s) ;P
02:20 beez paramtype2 = "facedir", seems to make it face me but the cut on the log ALWAYS faces up/down
02:21 VanessaE beez, to make it horizontal you'll have to set the facedir manually via the on_place function
02:21 beez wish i had my code from before
02:21 VanessaE or you'll have to define a log that's already rotated (that can be done by referencing the default tree textures and using ^[transformR90 where necessary)
02:22 beez hmm... might just make a sideways log as its own item
02:23 VanessaE that's the easiest way
02:25 beez sucks that i cant make a block that has the vert and horizontal ability easy
02:25 beez i had one, but idk how i did it
02:25 beez was under 6 lines
02:25 VanessaE you can, you have to hook into the on_place= handler (or after_place_node will work too)
02:25 beez hmm
02:26 beez r90...
02:27 beez ^[transformR90] the way to say it?
02:27 VanessaE tiles = { ...... , "default_tree.png^[transformR90" , ..... }
02:27 VanessaE (no closing ] as [ is not an opener)
02:28 beez and now i have a working sideways log
02:28 beez thanks 100x
02:28 VanessaE np.
02:29 beez now to muck about with other stuff
02:39 ecube joined #minetest
02:42 MrEldritch Could somebody explain the LGPL to me? I'm running off of insufficient sleep, insufficient food, and illness, and right now I just don't have the neural processing cycles to understand legalese.
02:44 VanessaE no idea.
02:44 VanessaE except I guess you can link your commercial project to an LGPL library and sell the resultant package as long as follow the usual provisions ofr sharing the LPGL'd source.
02:46 MrEldritch I'd been thinking of opening MineTest up and looking at how it handles a lot of stuff, but I was afraid ithat any code I would produce would look too similar and that in the (extremely unlikely) event I got something good enough to be commercial that I would end up going the same way as Infiniminer.

02:56 MrEldritch Hello!
02:57 kaeza hi
02:58 MrEldritch By the way, I haven't been keeping up with Minetest's development in a while. Does Minetest have a working mob engine that isn't just sprites yet? The level of developer bullshit, modder bullshit, and general drama, bullshit, and crushing disappointment and regret involved in Minecraft is getting to be too much for me, and I was wondering if Minetest was a viable alternative yet.
02:59 kaeza well...
03:01 kaeza Mobs were moved to the Lua side long ago
03:01 VanessaE ...and they are usually 3d
03:01 VanessaE if they use the player model, they are compatible with MC skins.
03:04 Kacey back
03:04 VanessaE wb
03:13 Kacey ty
03:16 Kacey khonkhortisan, how do i activate your crossing code?
03:17 VanessaE khonkhortisan: aside from needing textures, is there anything else that patch needs?
03:18 ecube joined #minetest

03:29 Vadtec Kacey: sorry i missed you last night, got sucked into helping my dad with his new gps...
03:30 Vadtec you still need help with compiling on windows?
03:30 Kacey maybe tomorrow. bedtime is soon.
03:30 Vadtec ok
03:30 Vadtec ill try to do a simple write up on it
03:31 Vadtec its a fairly straightforward method
03:31 Vadtec though sound is a pain in the ass
03:32 Kacey i have mingw installed. but compiling all the neccesary components for minetest is hard... i wish windows would do a good sudo apt-get
03:35 Vadtec Kacey: the only hard part is having to DL each of the deps
03:35 Vadtec and putting them in the right location
03:36 Vadtec otherwise the commands are pretty much the same
03:39 * Menche is really annoyed at bones mod
03:40 Menche players can drop bones in protected areas
03:40 Menche and fresh bones with items can't be removed
03:42 jordan4ibanez Lol I asked Richard Stallman to play Xonotic with me, and it's a definate maybe.
03:42 Menche can bones be disabled from game.conf?
03:44 VanessaE Menche: I just delete the bones mod.
03:44 Menche should be a disable option like with fire
03:44 VanessaE there might be such, but I'm not sure.
03:44 Kacey i just delete both of them. useless anyway
03:45 VanessaE nothing in minetest.conf.example about it though
03:45 VanessaE so I guess nuke it.
03:45 Menche sometimes i have to grab the game again for some reason, and forget to delete it
03:45 Menche happened with fire, with disastrous results
03:45 VanessaE I automated all that with a script
03:46 VanessaE it copies everything into their proper places, deletes what I don't want, packages up the result into a game, and installs it to my server and to my client ofr single player use.
03:46 VanessaE for*
03:46 Menche i install my server with checkinstall but manage the game separately
03:47 VanessaE ditto
03:47 VanessaE the actual server code is handled by another script.
03:53 khonkhortisan Kacey, you'd pull my branch, then either use the creative inventory to get the crossover, or craft two insulated wires together.
03:54 khonkhortisan VanessaE, It should be considered whether receptors/effectors could benefit from having multi_rules too
03:54 Kacey i did and it resulted in an unknown item. seems to me that you forgot to define the off state
03:54 khonkhortisan mesecons_extrawires:crossover_off
03:55 khonkhortisan I haven't seen it create an unknown item
03:55 Kacey oops! i cloned the wrong branch
03:56 khonkhortisan There's a way to pull a branch from a different repo than the main one you're using
03:57 Kacey not on the windows git
03:57 khonkhortisan then switch to a different git
03:58 Kacey naw im keeping windows on this computer
03:58 khonkhortisan it's not true git
03:58 Kacey windows 8 isnt that bad
03:58 Kacey it works for me
03:59 khonkhortisan If your git client can't do what my git client can do, get a different git client. Keep your os.
03:59 Kacey i got this client from git directly
03:59 Kacey straight from github
03:59 Menche github != git
04:00 Menche github uses git, they didn't make it
04:00 Kacey except it is run from libgit2 so...
04:00 khonkhortisan github has their own git client
04:00 Menche the *official* git for windows comes with it's own bash shell iirc
04:00 khonkhortisan bash?
04:01 diemartin joined #minetest
04:01 khonkhortisan I didn't know I could get bash on windows
04:01 Menche yeah
04:01 Kacey no. it comes with the lib to make cmd or powershell able to use the git api
04:01 Menche or through msys from mingw
04:02 Menche from http://git-scm.com
04:02 khonkhortisan that's not a valid git command!
04:02 Menche ?
04:02 khonkhortisan git --local-branching-on-the-cheap
04:03 Menche i doubt --distributed-is-the-new-centralized is either
04:03 Menche lol
04:04 Menche i use msys when i'm in windows
04:04 Menche bash, most linux tools, it's own software management
04:04 khonkhortisan its
04:05 khonkhortisan http://www.its-not-its.info/
04:05 * Menche isn't the only one to mix that up
04:06 khonkhortisan I have someone on another channel that refuses to change
04:06 Kacey its complicated. every situation has it's own solution
04:06 khonkhortisan ugh
04:06 Kacey :P
04:07 Menche i usually try to use correct grammar, sometimes i forget or just mistype
04:07 Menche (that comma probably should have been a semicolon)
04:07 khonkhortisan I'm not as trinke as you denke I am
04:07 * Menche has always am very well at grammars
04:08 Kacey i just dont care for apostrophes at all. waste of my time
04:08 khonkhortisan that's why its in place of it's bugs me less than it's in place of its
04:08 khonkhortisan couldn't've has two apostrophes
04:08 * Menche had to read that sentence a few times
04:09 VanessaE people writing they're/there/their or using apostrophes for plural words is what bugs me.
04:09 VanessaE makes me wanna sic Bob the Angry Flower on said people :)
04:09 Menche i don't use apostrophes for pluralization
04:09 Menche i sometimes mix up contractions and possesives
04:10 khonkhortisan word's
04:10 * Kacey always was never oay attentions on classez
04:10 Kacey pay*
04:11 Menche and then there's people (not mentioning Likwid's name) who, drop commas, all over, the place
04:11 khonkhortisan This is just like when someone sings. If they sing horibbly on purpose, you can tell they're trying to and it doesn't bug you. If they sing just barely off without trying too, it's really annoying.
04:11 Kacey heh
04:12 Kacey AND I WAS LIKE BABY, BABY, BABY OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!
04:12 Kacey sorry adhd
04:12 khonkhortisan VE, is taht a game?
04:12 khonkhortisan I taut I taw a putty tat
04:14 VanessaE khonkhortisan: no, it's actually a comic.
04:14 VanessaE http://www.angryflower.com/aposter3.jpg
04:15 khonkhortisan I can't find cats anywhere in there
04:17 kaeza VanessaE, lol
04:17 Menche khonkhortisan, that says that possessives are a valid use for apostrophes
04:17 khonkhortisan I believe its is an exception
04:17 VanessaE correct.
04:17 VanessaE its/it's is about the only word I can think of that violates that rule.
04:17 Menche *sigh* english...
04:18 khonkhortisan An apostrophe of one's own.
04:19 Menche there's this gas station near me that uses quotation marks for emphasis
04:19 Menche drives me nuts
04:19 VanessaE Menche: oh I HATE that.
04:19 Vadtec "emphasis"
04:19 Menche "Yes" we now do smog
04:20 Menche "Please" do not park here
04:20 Menche GAH
04:20 sokomine as long as they stick to one quotation mark alone you can't complain
04:20 kahrl maybe there quoting something?
04:20 Menche quoting one word?
04:20 kaeza ...
04:20 VanessaE I wonder if that guy I read about on slashdot, the one who carries around a box full of markers and paints, still goes around correcting peoples' signs
04:20 Menche quoting "yes"?
04:20 VanessaE /kill kahrl
04:20 sokomine er, sorry, was misreading it for exclamation marks
04:20 * kaeza wonders if kahrl's comment was sarcasm
04:21 sokomine havn't seen spam with quotation marks yet
04:22 khonkhortisan maybe they're quoting something?
04:22 Menche i don't think you have to quote "yes"
04:22 kahrl khonkhortisan: no, its their
04:22 khonkhortisan huh?
04:22 diemartin joined #minetest
04:22 khonkhortisan no it's not
04:23 Menche it is clearly "there"
04:23 khonkhortisan there (place) their (ownership) they're (contraction of "they are")
04:23 Menche </troll>
04:23 khonkhortisan now what was I going to say - oh yeah, if they correct someone's sign, and it's the same color and font, I don't see how it could be considered destruction of property
04:25 Menche not really legal, but if i witnessed them "fixing" something i wouldn't report them :P
04:25 khonkhortisan there's trespassing though
04:25 Menche i heard of them; i think they got in trouble for modifying a historical sign
04:25 Menche or something like that
04:27 khonkhortisan Something that was supposed to stay misspelled
04:28 Menche the government doesn't like apostrophes in place names
04:28 Menche saw a newspaper article about someone who wanted to name a mountain something like "andy's hill", but was changed to "andys hill"
04:29 Menche (the name may have been different)
04:29 khonkhortisan we'll just have to utf-8-encode the government, then

10:36 Taoki For minetest.place_schematic(pos, schematic)
10:36 Taoki Also, what does pos represent? The center or the upper-left corner (starts from minimum X and Z)?

11:37 PilzAdam I just woke up

11:50 Taoki back
11:51 dachary joined #minetest
11:53 Taoki Anyone knows what probability_list must be like for minetest.create_schematic? If I use { { x = 1, y = 2, z = 3}, 0 } like it says (0 because I want to ignore some nodes when creating the scmehatic) minetest even crashes
11:59 Taoki "probability_list is an array of tables containing two fields, pos and prob." - That's what I'm trying, but it crashes
12:06 dachary what does "creative mode" mean in minetest ?
12:06 Taoki It seems to no longer crash if I use { x = 1, y = 2, z = 3, -1 }
12:09 PilzAdam dachary, why dont you simple try it?
12:09 dachary well, I did
12:09 dachary and I don't see it ?
12:09 PilzAdam what minetest version?
12:09 dachary I mean ... i can build etc.
12:09 dachary 0.4.7
12:09 dachary but what's special about creative mode ?
12:09 PilzAdam you have unlimited nodes, a list of all nodes in your inventory and you can break every node with your hand
12:10 dachary oh
12:10 dachary a list of all nodes in my inventory ?
12:11 PilzAdam like this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/83/Minetest_creative_mode_.png

15:53 OldCoder News: Some crashes in my worlds recently were due to the irc mod. It does not work on the new server. I will ask kaeza for help.
15:54 OldCoder News: I offer the community high-end servers. 32GB RAM and 8 cores. I'll update to current MT and run more worlds more reliably. But I'll need help learning things again.
15:55 OldCoder ruskie, sfan5, Taoki, thexyz, Calinou ^
15:55 Calinou 8 amd cores or 8 intel cores? :P

16:02 Calinou OldCoder: bi-CPU or single CPU? :P
16:02 OldCoder Calinou, explain please and thank you
16:02 Zeg9 OldCoder: btw, could you host Zegaton II when it will be ready?
16:02 OldCoder Zeg9, Yes
16:03 * OldCoder is shutting down worlds for brief inspection
16:03 Calinou OldCoder: do you have a single CPU or a dual CPU machine?
16:03 OldCoder Calinou, Do you mean the laptop I am on? Or the server?
16:03 Calinou I doubt you would have single CPU, since an octacore xeon costs 3500€ or so
16:04 sfan5 OldCoder: i think he means the server
16:04 Calinou the server
16:04 Calinou intel doesn't even make mobile hexacores :P
16:04 OldCoder Calinou, sfan5 what should I check?
16:04 OldCoder There are photos on my blog... but probably somewhere in /proc or /sys

16:05 * OldCoder is probably going to revert to June 22 because there have been multiple crashes since then... best to avoid corruption
16:06 Calinou fuc
16:06 Calinou I just googled "Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           E5410"
16:06 OldCoder And?
16:06 OldCoder Good or bad?
16:07 OldCoder Inquiring minds want to know :P
16:07 Calinou OldCoder: it is a quad core
16:07 Calinou so you are bi-CPU
16:07 OldCoder Is this inadequate?
16:07 Calinou OldCoder: googling is bad, startpaging is good
16:07 Calinou no
16:07 Calinou just different
16:07 OldCoder Is this good?
16:07 OldCoder Calinou, startpage point noted
16:07 * OldCoder is transferring 130622 worlds to the new server
16:08 OldCoder Calinou, quad core with eight CPUs then?
16:08 * OldCoder is distracted and probably missing details
16:11 Calinou OldCoder: no, you have two quad core CPUs on the same mobo
16:11 Calinou likely
16:11 Jordach joined #minetest
16:11 Calinou the core 2 gen does not use hyoerthreading (does it, in the server area?)
16:11 Calinou hyper*
16:11 OldCoder Ah
16:12 Calinou Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology No
16:12 Calinou nope
16:12 OldCoder Very well thank you
16:12 OldCoder As long as it works
16:12 Calinou have to go, bye
16:13 OldCoder Hmm. wget from new server is 10X faster than scp to new server.

16:14 mrtux internet being crap again
16:14 sfan5 OldCoder: random info: MinetestBot requires at least python 2.6 and python-setuptools with "feedparser" installed to fully function
16:15 OldCoder sfan5, that is fine
16:15 harrison i am unimpressed with irc today and yesterday. very sluggish -- not the network this time, but the people.
16:15 OldCoder New server should stabilize over the next month. There is one concern about a Python bot. I can't seem to start mine if...
16:15 sfan5 I may also add a !git pull command so I can instruct MinetestBot to pull from git://github.com/sfan5/minetestbot-modules
16:15 OldCoder harrison, hi
16:15 harrison oh, drat, i know i know you
16:16 OldCoder sfan5, readline code fails if my Python bot is started from /etc/rc.local
16:16 harrison i mean, we have chatted before
16:16 mrtux harrison: yes i agree
16:16 harrison but i don't remember if it was in this channel OldCoder
16:16 OldCoder yes we have drat chat that is off the bat hi harrison
16:16 OldCoder harrison, it was in PM
16:17 OldCoder sfan5, as there is no tty... so my bot needs tweaking
16:17 harrison is there not something a bit strange in this: that MineTest uses lua and Minetestbot uses python?
16:17 harrison free elleko
16:17 OldCoder harrison, it seems O.K.
16:18 harrison free snowden
16:18 Zeg9 MineTest and Minetestbot are separate projects :p
16:18 harrison free weev
16:18 Zeg9 in hedgewars they even use Pascal, Haskell, Lua and C++ in the same software
16:18 harrison all right. let me play the devil's advocate again and ask this:
16:19 harrison Wouldn't it be better to use only one language for the whole thing, rather than even 2 such as C++ and lua?
16:20 Jordach sunofabitch
16:20 harrison We should ask why we think we need scripting languages
16:20 Jordach harrison, because its easier than re-compliing
16:20 harrison for instance, consider second life
16:20 Jordach http://cuddlebuggery.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Picard-Facepalm.jpg
16:20 harrison the client uses C++ (in most cases)
16:21 OldCoder Is there really such a thing as a scripting language?
16:21 harrison the inworld scripting uses LSL (or other Mono langs)
16:21 * OldCoder is resting... back in a few minutes
16:23 harrison Jordach -- good answer! One reason is that a scripting language has no (visible) compilation stage
16:23 Jordach ffs - this milkshake ring pull is pissing me off
16:23 harrison and that, since it is separate from the statically compiled code of the client
16:24 harrison (the client must be statically compiled for speed)
16:24 harrison we can write a script and run it while the client is running
16:25 harrison What if we could use the statically compiled main language as the scripting language?
16:25 harrison Two uses, one language
16:25 harrison So that bits of code could be compiled as scripts
16:26 harrison and introjected into the client
16:26 harrison to run at compiled speed
16:28 Zeg9 C++ takes a little time to compiel (only for big files :p)
16:28 Zeg9 but on non-speedy machines (especially - the single core ones)...
16:29 Jordach fuck you and your hatred for pentium 4s
16:30 Jordach most business computers still use em
16:31 Zeg9 :p
16:31 Jordach and yet, microsoft wants them dead
16:31 Jordach most of em cant run 8
16:31 Jordach mine can :>

17:09 harrison Compilation time is surely not the issue!
17:09 harrison I spoke of the compilation of code fragments at runtime
17:10 harrison Now, that this would be difficult to do using C++ : I am prepared to believe it
17:10 Zeg9 ^that
17:11 harrison For a film demonstrating the technique using a proper language, view this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOocN1BKjh0
17:13 harrison the "scripting" fragments implement raytrace shaders and that code runs natively
17:13 harrison it's not a "dynamic language"
17:13 harrison supposedly
17:14 harrison in fact this experiment showed me that a proper static language can do dynamic things
17:15 harrison if i can do this using oberon, imagine what a truly gifted coder could accomplish
17:15 Kacey hey does anyone want to help make a rp2 type mod?
