00:00 Taoki Actually, does anyone know if the property to change bounding box on Lua entities works on players too? I see no reason why it shouldn't, although I haven't tried it myself
00:01 Exio4 couldn't keep it, heaven knows i tried... don't let them in, don't let them see
00:04 Exio4 Taoki: i don't think you can find any decent driver for this gpu
00:04 Exio4 open or not
00:05 Exio4 gma 3600
00:05 Taoki Exio4: gma? Is that intel?
00:06 Exio4 yes
00:07 Exio4 it is probably the only integrated from intel that needs a closed blob
00:07 Taoki Ok. Then there are indeed no hopes of finding a good driver sadly. Intel cards are pretty much not made for 3D stuff or modern graphics
00:07 Taoki Minetest should however still run even on that. Probably without shaders though
00:07 Exio4 Taoki: this GPU is actually nice at hardware
00:07 Exio4 "nice"
00:08 Taoki Nvidia or ATI are the only ones that can safely do modern graphics. Personally I prefer ATI... especially as a Linux user funny enough
00:08 Exio4 search for a PowerVR SGX545
00:09 Exio4 and this is an outdated system
00:09 Exio4 dammit
00:12 EvergreenTree Exio4: I have a Radeon 7750
00:13 Taoki 6870 here
00:14 Exio4 GMA 3600 here, it is a ok integrated gpu without drivers
00:15 Taoki Laptop I imagine? Or desktop mobo integrated card
00:17 Exio4 netbook from the gov
00:17 Taoki hehe, ok
00:18 Taoki My first laptop had an intel card too. It could run some games, but I had problems with anything 3D
00:18 Taoki Thank goodness I managed to get one with an ATI mobility Radeon years ago

01:21 Exio4 Taoki: you don't get it, do you?
01:21 Exio4 this isn't like any other intel card
01:22 Taoki ok
01:23 Taoki Just saying my experience with intel video cards was bad. It was however very limited and a while ago. No idea how good they should be now, although most people still complain Intel doesn't run games well
01:23 Taoki The driver is usually common. Not doubting the card can have good capabilities, but if any intel driver is bad that can matter less
01:25 Exio4 intel FOSS driver is ok
01:25 Exio4 the problem here is that THIS "intel" igp isn't actually an intel igp but a re-branded gpu
01:25 Exio4 without FOSS driver
01:28 Weedy you guys are talking about the poulsbo
01:28 Weedy aren't you
01:30 Exio4 what
01:33 Weedy Atom Z processors shipped with a PowerVR GPU
01:33 Weedy I don't know of any other chips with GPUs not using a intel GPU
01:34 Exio4 i{m talking about the atom n2xxx
01:34 Exio4 with PowerVR GPUs clocked at 400mhz instead of 200
01:35 Exio4 and a newer one too afaik

02:39 arsdragonfly_ How's the player's movement speed slowed in water?
02:44 lordcirth arsdragonfly, I think the engine sets a speed for moving through liquids
02:46 arsdragonfly_ hmm, it seems hard to create a node on which walking is slowed

06:57 reactor Ehlo.
06:58 reactor Is it possible to use the OS's luasocket instead of the one provided by the IRC mod?
06:59 reactor Also, why'd the author use such a nonstandard obscurity as SCons?
06:59 sfan5 yes | dunno
06:59 sfan5 scons is not that obscure
07:00 sfan5 just not used as widely as make
07:01 reactor it's obscured, compared to make
07:01 reactor obscure*
07:01 sfan5 depends how good you know it
07:01 sfan5 +on
07:01 reactor I don't want to install it just becaose some game mod requires it.
07:01 reactor because*
07:01 Hunterz joined #minetest
07:01 reactor too much hassle
07:02 reactor If it used make, it wouldn't be.
07:02 reactor These days, software developers assume the end user has every library inthe world installed.
07:03 reactor You end up with a huge zoo installed in your system: amake, gmake, cmake, autoconf, scons, etc.
07:03 sfan5 amake?
07:03 reactor imake, also
07:03 sfan5 what's that?
07:04 reactor I meant imake.
07:04 reactor The modification of make X11 requires to build.
07:04 sfan5 I don't know that either
07:04 reactor They invented their own bicycle.
07:04 sfan5 the tools you need for basically everything are cmake, autoconf & automake (this implies make)
07:05 reactor Yeah, but _some_ programs require other kinds.
07:05 reactor That's why building packages in a jail is preferred by some.
07:06 reactor install-build-remove
07:07 reactor But that's all workarounds and crutches; if everyone used the standard way, there wouldn't be need for these.
07:10 reactor BSD license and such ways... grotesque.

07:27 kilbith Hello. Since several days, I have this error message written in my debug.txt file when I'm trying to connect on a server : ERROR[ConnectionSend]: con(10/0)RunTimeouts(): Peer 1 has timed out. (source=peer->timeout_counter)
07:27 kilbith Someone have the same problem ?
07:28 kilbith I can't connect...
07:31 sfan5 are you sure the server you are trying to connect to is online?
07:31 kilbith Yes, sure.
07:32 kilbith I saw on the forum & IRC the same bug reported...
07:32 kilbith But not resolved :/

07:37 kaeza VanessaE, hm?
07:38 sfan5 which server are you trying to connect to?
07:38 kilbith The bug is not isolated on Megaf...
07:38 kilbith LinuxGaming.us
07:39 sfan5 !up LinuxGaming.us
07:39 MinetestBot LinuxGaming.us:30000 is up (165ms)
07:39 sfan5 hm
07:39 sfan5 the server is up
07:40 kilbith Indeed but as you can seen, even some servers are up, players get their messages...
07:40 kilbith *some players
07:41 kilbith Staying at "connexion to the server" screen and that's all.
07:41 sfan5 hm
07:42 sfan5 you are using the latest dev version, right?
07:42 kilbith Yes
07:43 sfan5 did you try 0.4.9 (stable)?
07:43 kilbith I will try...
07:43 PenguinDad joined #minetest
07:47 kilbith Same issue :(
07:48 sfan5 hm
07:48 sfan5 :/
07:51 kilbith Same problem on Ogb server
07:51 sfan5 can you try running it with verbose and pastebin the debug log?
07:51 sfan5 --verbose
07:52 kilbith Copy/paste ?
07:52 sfan5 use http://pastie.org
07:52 sfan5 (if that's what you mean)
07:53 kilbith http://pastie.org/9130017
07:54 sfan5 oh hm

07:55 sfan5 RealBadAngel: not much :P
07:55 kilbith Where is this file ?
07:55 RealBadAngel sfan5, then checkout UI and technic repos, some new things are there

07:56 RealBadAngel personally i do like chest sorting feature
07:56 sfan5 RealBadAngel: I'll do that after I've finished looking at Mapgen v5
07:57 OldCoder joined #minetest
08:00 RealBadAngel huh i thought that v5 is kinda old
08:00 RealBadAngel where have you been then for all that time? frozen in arctica or what?

09:33 reactor kaeza: I would like to talk about your IRC mod.
09:33 reactor I have a couple suggestions.
09:34 kaeza reactor, like?
09:34 reactor 1. It includes luasocket, which, on many systems, already comes as a package.
09:34 reactor Why not ask user to install the package instead?
09:34 sfan5 what about windows?
09:35 reactor ask the user to compile it. They must be already proficient enough in order to install MinGW.
09:36 reactor ...if the need for "Windows ease" is so bad, why not make it optional?
09:37 reactor Which leads us to 2. Why use scons for such a simple thing?
09:37 reactor As far as I see it, a simple Makefile is sufficient.
09:37 kaeza reactor, if you don't like it, just remove luasocket.so and it will (theoretically) use the system one
09:37 kaeza (+associated files)
09:37 reactor I had to roll a workaround to not use the scons+build-everything-in-place way.
09:38 reactor The last, but not the least, 3. LuaIRC is not mentioned anywhere in the documentation.
09:38 reactor Neither is it pulled in; I had to search for it manually.
09:38 kaeza for 2) ask ShadowNinja :)
09:38 reactor Huh?
09:39 reactor ...as far as I see so far, there is the "correct" way, and the "Windows" way.
09:39 reactor Which should be supported separately, because if you mix them, it becomes a mess.
09:40 kaeza feel free to submit a patch
09:40 reactor I will, in quite some time, though.

10:04 sfan5 no
10:04 sfan5 spawnentity only spawns lua entities
10:05 sfan5 and the player is no even serlialized as an entity IIRC

13:17 sfan5 not my fault
13:17 sfan5 did you shut the server down cleanly?
13:17 PenguinDad Krock: how is it sfan5's fault that you use windows
13:17 * PenguinDad runs
13:18 * sfan5 meows at PenguinDad
13:18 * PenguinDad telepets sfan5
13:18 Krock sfan5, yes I did.
13:18 sfan5 are you sure?
13:19 Krock sfan5, i already taskkilled the server multiple times before, now i upgrated and everything corrupted
13:19 Krock (no talkkill this time)
13:19 Krock *taskkill
13:20 sfan5 that could've happend because of the taskkills you did before
13:20 sfan5 Amaz_: look! https://mediacru.sh/9f3489f55866
13:20 Krock what a luck
13:20 Krock sfan5, after it currupted, i talkkilled it, so it doesn't save the map. downgraded now
13:21 Krock AAHHHH almost got pnic
13:21 sfan5 what do you mean by corrupted?
13:21 Krock sfan5, like sqlite3, maps regenerated
13:21 Amaz_ Great! Mine is still compiling... Nearly done.
13:22 Krock I'll try to reproduce this on a backup
13:23 Taoki Hey. Is there any way to remove existing death functionality (popping up the "you have died" window, emptying your inventory, etc) to use only my unique code under minetest.register_on_dieplayer ?
13:25 Amaz_ This is great! Is it going to be put into the main engine? It should be. But didn't c55 say he wanted to do it?
13:31 Taoki Also: Is it possible in Lua to make certain players not take any damage and be invincible? Either from falling, lava, being punched, etcv
13:31 Taoki How do I do that?
13:38 Megaf Hi everyone
13:39 Krock Taoki, disable damage
13:39 Taoki Krock: How? Can't find how to do that on specific players in the Lua API
13:40 Krock Taoki, only for global. I didn't read "certain players"
13:40 Taoki Ok. I need to make specific players invincible yes
13:41 Krock give them a super apple

13:57 Amaz_ That's good.

15:40 Calinou minetest.override_item("default:glass", {
15:40 Calinou drawtype = "glasslike_framed",
15:40 Calinou })
15:41 Calinou this makes glass framed, with just 3 lines
15:43 PenguinDad framed glass sucks
15:44 Calinou it looks pretty, you can make nice stuff with it if you know how to texture it
15:44 Calinou it behaves fine here
15:44 Calinou it of course doesn't obey smooth lighting, but glasslike doesn't obey it either
15:44 Calinou (only solid nodes do)

15:58 CraigyDavi I think it's safe to say that the average BuildCraft user is 4 years old.
15:59 Jordach CraigyDavi, hell no
15:59 Jordach i like that Minecraft mod, it adds a shit ton of automation ;)
16:00 CraigyDavi Well it's what I've found from past experience.

16:04 Taoki Is it possile to make an item that cannot be dropped? Only held in the inventory
16:08 Calinou I don't think so (without an hack)
16:11 restcoser joined #minetest
16:13 CraigyDavi I think it's possible to check if the item is dropped and then add it back into the players inventory but not to stop it being dropped in the first place.
16:15 Calinou :O a mob dies if it hits the bottom of the world
16:15 zsoltisawesome could you make them hit it?
16:15 Calinou an oerkki tried to attack me, fell in the void
16:15 Calinou I see the oerkki moving, under the void
16:15 zsoltisawesome MINETEST HAS A VOID?!?!?!
16:15 Calinou and a rat
16:15 Calinou I'll record this
16:17 sfan5 zsoltisawesome: void looks like this: https://mediacru.sh/8lLqRMZmoIa_
16:18 zsoltisawesome it looks more friendly than MC viod
16:18 zsoltisawesome *void
16:18 Calinou woah, huge deposit of rats
16:18 Calinou suspicious amount of objects detected: 3225
16:18 Calinou “removing all of them”
16:18 Calinou zero lag ;)
16:19 Calinou (that's strange, due to the amount of objects)
16:19 crazyR_ does anyone know if the mesecons_commandblock actually works?
16:21 sfan5 yes it works
16:22 CraigyDavi crazyR_, It worked when I last used it
16:22 Calinou “suspicious amount of objects detected”: 403918
16:22 crazyR_ i just tryed it and it wouldnt save the cammands
16:22 Calinou trolololololo
16:23 crazyR_ *command's
16:23 khonkhortisan tried
16:23 Calinou there's a literal rat factory below the void
16:23 Calinou still zero lag
16:27 lordcirth crazyR_, you can also just add "minetest.env" to the luacontroller's allowed list, and that works even better than the command block
16:28 crazyR_ that would be a big security risk though if im right
16:28 lordcirth crazyR_, oh sure, in multiplayer.
16:29 crazyR_ lol, thats what the server is. lol
16:30 crazyR_ oh you thoght i was talking about single player mode :/ sorry lol
16:32 crazyR_ puhfa can you test the detector tuebs and the delayer for me? please lol
16:33 crazyR_ oops wrong chat
16:37 Calinou how to generate several layers of nodes at a constant height?
16:37 Calinou I have the code to generate **one** layer of nodes
16:37 Calinou but not several
16:38 Calinou http://0bin.net/paste/5r8sOsZri8ecrQUg#AoELptNR3uOvSoXSjBqYPtjz/y4FOeOEJ0GUnjp92FY= ← makes server lag insanely (crash)
16:38 crazyR_ could you not loop it with each new hieght
16:38 Calinou would be slow?
16:38 Calinou this is Lua...
16:39 Calinou however, I can try registering an ore
16:42 sfan5 that would be the fastest
16:42 sfan5 IIRC
16:44 Calinou I'm doing that
16:44 Calinou beware, if you do it wrongly, game crashes :p
16:44 Calinou http://0bin.net/paste/ExCGJtatUSgDLrPH#zTBxPwO1ZgfNd6suIMFx2sEjQDnKRl0VX4gIXUfNhmM=

16:45 Calinou this was the clust ore settings
16:45 Calinou set in both air and stone, at low heights

17:17 BlockMen and in which way does it differ from other bedrock mods?

19:03 CraigyDavi hi
19:03 Taoki Um... does max_HP not work on players? How do I limit the number of HP a player can have
19:04 Krock player:set_hp(20)
19:05 Taoki Krock: That is max hp? Can consuming apples for example still allow more than that?
19:05 Krock Taoki, more than 20 will make no difference
19:06 Taoki I want some players to have less
19:06 Krock then 10
19:06 Krock for 5 hearths
19:06 Taoki ok. So setting it to 10 for instance means apples can't give up to do and so
19:06 Taoki thanks
19:09 Taoki Krock: When I respawn, I still get 20 HP, even if prior to that I did set_hp(10). I assume consuming food doesn't have that problem?
19:10 Krock Taoki, you want max. 10HP at all?
19:10 Taoki Krock: Yes. I want an individual player's HP to never go above that
19:11 Krock on globalstep -> if player:get_hp() > 10 then player:set_hp(10) end
19:12 Taoki So that's the only way. Ok in that case
19:16 Exio4 there should be a light-er way to do that
19:17 Taoki What is it? Haven't found one myself
19:18 Krock 1) override on_death, item_eat
19:18 Krock 2) more builtin functions
19:19 Taoki ok

20:21 Taoki I'm working on my mod of PilzAdam's SimpleMobs, which will work by defining creatures that both players and mobs will play as. Players will start as ghosts, and must find and possess a mob to assume a physical form and have an inventory / etc

20:28 Taoki It's intended to be. Though if you choose to possess a mouse, you of corse won't have crafting and just 1 or 2 inventory slots :) Possess a sand monster however, you'll have abilities similar to players
20:28 Taoki Players will also become mobs. Being one will give the same functionality
20:29 Taoki PilzAdam: Ah, good to know. Might help in making mobs emit multiple types of a random sound

20:30 jin_xi joined #minetest
20:30 zsoltisawesome_ everyone is haaving a jolly good time while I have to sit and fix moonrealm...
20:31 Taoki But yeah. The idea is, there will no longer be "players and mobs", or "friendly or hostile mobs toward players". You simply define species with various properties. Those species are played as either mobs or players. There will be alliances between them two, and each player can choose any it wants.
20:31 Amaz_ Awesome! I can't wait...
20:32 Amaz_ That could be good for the Lord of the Rings sub-game. As a variant...
20:32 Taoki Might take a bit. But I finished defining the ghost system at least
20:33 Taoki http://i57.tinypic.com/117qr6a.png How a view from the astral realm looks like
20:33 Amaz_ That is cool!
20:33 Taoki That's what you see until you find a mob that lets you into its body. There will be a probability for that. Whenever you die, you also revert to a ghost like that
20:33 ^Enki^ joined #minetest
20:34 Taoki ^^
20:34 Amaz_ Can you die when you are a ghost?
20:34 Taoki Yeah. If you die as a ghost you don't lose anything, except that you'll be teleported back at spawn
20:34 Calinou “That's what you see until you find a mob that lets you into its body.”... uhm...
20:35 Calinou Taoki, as for the purple fog, did you use C++, or is there a way to change fog colour in Lua?
20:35 Taoki I tried to make ghosts invincible. But that was hard... both because making individual players invincible isn't working well with the current lua api, and ghosts can still do damage with hand
20:35 Calinou you can give 20 HP every so often
20:35 Taoki Calinou: Yeah, that slipped past me haha :P And the Lua function to set sky
20:35 Calinou doesn't prevent kill blocks or big falls killing you
20:35 Calinou but prevents lava, drowning and medium falls from doing so
20:36 Taoki For now I'm keeping dying as a ghost, feels better
20:36 Taoki For some reason, the concept in Soul Reaver keeps comming to mind. I played that years ago... loved how you would switch between astran and physical
20:37 Taoki **astral
20:37 Taoki So it's gonna be somewhat similar here
20:37 Amaz_ Okay.
20:38 zsoltisawesome_ this is so annoying
20:38 zsoltisawesome_ #sslrage
20:39 sfan5 tls*
20:39 zsoltisawesome_ you sure?

20:39 zsoltisawesome_ own SSL protocol error in connection to github.com:443
20:39 zsoltisawesome_ my firewall blocked it
20:39 sfan5 yet it's TLS
20:39 sfan5 look it up
20:40 zsoltisawesome_ and i dont know how to tell git to run through a SOCKS proxy...
20:40 zsoltisawesome_ if it even can
20:41 sfan5 you can
20:41 sfan5 try tsocks
20:42 zsoltisawesome_ oh goody more stuff to download
20:42 zsoltisawesome_ is it available for Windows?
20:42 sfan5 dunno
20:42 sfan5 google
20:42 sfan5 *good night*
20:43 CraigyDavi Hmmm. Are there any known causes for "Minetest main core application has stopped working" when running a server? There is nothing in debug
20:43 Jordach CraigyDavi, usually access violations
20:44 Jordach (and sometimes depending on hardware, Lua bugs)
20:44 CraigyDavi Hmm so what causes access voilations?
20:45 sfan5 CraigyDavi: everything can cause them
20:46 zsoltisawesome_ even adding 2+2 can cause them
20:46 zsoltisawesome_ :P
20:46 CraigyDavi Hmmkay. I have never experienced this before. Only when i updated server to a recent dev did this start happening
20:46 zsoltisawesome_ CraigyDavi: are you running Windows?
20:47 CraigyDavi Yes
20:47 zsoltisawesome_ hmm
20:47 zsoltisawesome_ i had it happen even on the stable...
20:48 CraigyDavi Arggg it keeps happening
20:48 zsoltisawesome_ it seems that doing anything in quick sussetion puts it off
20:49 zsoltisawesome_ protip: don't use latest builds
20:49 asie joined #minetest
20:50 zsoltisawesome_ left #minetest
20:50 asie hi
20:50 asie I am considering moving to modding for Minetest because, to be honest, the Minecraft modding scene is rapidly deteriorating
20:50 asie also it's nice to see familiar faces here. hi AndrewPH!
20:50 AndrewPH hi
20:50 CraigyDavi Is there any chance it could be caused by a player too far deep underground
20:50 AndrewPH I think I played this once maybe
20:50 CraigyDavi A wise choice, asie :)
20:50 AndrewPH I just watch because it's really cool
20:50 asie CraigyDavi: well, it was minetest vs. terasology
20:51 asie if you want to see my minecraft work... http://mc.shinonome.ch/
20:51 Amaz_ Terasology looks great, but lags dreadfully for me...
20:53 asie CraigyDavi: sadly, the minetest problem for me is that the API is too limited due to design issues
20:53 asie most of my mods tended to do things thought to be impossible in minecraft by clever internal abuse
20:53 zsoltisawesome_ joined #minetest
20:54 asie such as EnderNet (inter-server item transmission) or Computronics (streaming audio in a special format to client)
20:54 zsoltisawesome_ where do you spawn when you dont have a static spawn?
20:56 CraigyDavi zsoltisawesome_, A random place near 0,0,0
20:56 CraigyDavi *i think*
20:57 zsoltisawesome_ hmm
20:57 Calinou Creative inventory now has more items; faster digging in creative mode; tell the name of the players who died and change message syntax slightly; burn items in fire and igniters; rats can now spawn on cacti.
20:57 zsoltisawesome_ PilzAdam: ^
20:58 Calinou hi asie
20:58 zsoltisawesome_ john_minetest!
20:59 Calinou http://mc.shinonome.ch/doku.php?id=wiki:ponysocks → this would interest Taoki
20:59 Taoki Aaaah <3
20:59 Taoki Yes, indeed
20:59 Taoki Very nice. That needed to happen :)
21:00 Calinou asie, you seem to have pretty insane API needs :P
21:00 asie Calinou: Computronics.
21:00 asie A mod that added tape drives that streamed music to Minecraft
21:00 asie That would require direct OpenAL and network protocol access
21:00 zsoltisawesome_ well
21:00 Calinou that's probably way worse than mesecons in terms of complexity
21:01 Calinou there's little direct OS access, but you can use .so libraries
21:01 zsoltisawesome_ afaik you can stream web radio
21:01 Calinou (OS-dependant)
21:01 Calinou see the IRC mod
21:01 zsoltisawesome_ #orange
21:01 asie john_minetest: the lag of reencoding would get crazy
21:05 zsoltisawesome_ PilzAdam: where do you spawn when you dont have a static spawn?
21:06 PilzAdam zsoltisawesome_, CraigyDavi has already answered that question
21:06 PilzAdam there are other people to answer your questions except me
21:06 zsoltisawesome_ true
21:06 zsoltisawesome_ but you are an engine dev, you should know better
21:06 PilzAdam btw, "near" in his answer is something about +-500-ish
21:09 zsoltisawesome_ up and down, or x and z?
21:09 zsoltisawesome_ somebody please sacifice some time to test! https://github.com/ManOfMinetest24/moontest/
21:10 asie anyway, i might look into working with minetest
21:12 asie i really want to make a computer mod for minetest
21:12 asie as it seems to be lacking a good one
21:12 asie and unlike the minecraft community, most people here seem to be actually competent
21:13 Calinou heh
21:14 Amaz_ Thanks. That seems a nice compliment. (Although, if you saw some of the mistakes I've made today, you might take it back!)
21:14 Calinou I stopped playing Minecraft in January
21:14 lordcirth asie, take a look at https://github.com/lordcirth/minetest-digipad
21:14 Calinou Mesecons microcontrollers might be a start?
21:14 Calinou or is this totally different?
21:14 Calinou (and luacontrollers)
21:14 asie Calinou: I will be reimplementing my own redstone system, likely
21:14 asie Wirium from a sandbox game i made 3-4 years ago
21:14 asie but I will try to keep mesecons compat
21:14 lordcirth asie, and the Luacontroller
21:15 lordcirth asie, why reimplement?  if you need a new feature, talk with Jeija
21:15 Calinou ^
21:15 asie lordcirth: different design mechanic?
21:15 Calinou Mesecons is nice ;) but can be slow
21:15 asie i don't exactly want a redstone clone
21:15 asie i want to fiddle with some new concepts
21:16 zsoltisawesome_ Calinou: does it use ABM
21:16 lordcirth asie, don't see how your wires could be that much different than other wires
21:16 lordcirth zsoltisawesome, not for wire traveling, no
21:16 zsoltisawesome_ what then
21:16 asie lordcirth: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9b46iAKrL8
21:16 asie sure they can
21:16 Calinou many more things, it's a very complex mods
21:16 asie (this ran in multiplayer too, but at a slower speed)
21:16 Calinou probably dozens of thousands of lines of code?
21:16 Calinou night
21:17 asie lordcirth: if you look closely, this is very different from how redstone functions
21:18 lordcirth zsoltisawesome, when a block wants to power a wire, it executes that wire's function, which looks for others and trips them, etc
21:18 zsoltisawesome_ that seems uneffecient
21:18 zsoltisawesome_ imo ABM would work faster
21:18 lordcirth zsoltisawesome, no, ABM's can't run more than once a second
21:18 zsoltisawesome_ \better
21:19 asie anyway, AFK
21:19 lordcirth zsoltisawesome, it would take 1 second per block to propagate a signal.  this method isn't too bad.
21:19 lordcirth zsoltisawesome, now perhaps you could change it to recheck it's connections once a second or two, and store, then when tripped it wouldn't have to look
21:20 zsoltisawesome_ the only annoying thing about Mesecons is those microcontrollers
21:21 lordcirth zsoltisawesome, you mean the luacontrollers, or the old microcontroller?
21:22 zsoltisawesome_ old microcontroller
21:22 zsoltisawesome_ it is a pain in the ass
21:24 * afk asie
21:24 ^atsign^ yay
21:27 LandFormD damn
21:27 LandFormD someone bought derp.de
21:27 asie joined #minetest
21:28 asie so i looked at the OS X builds
21:28 asie "FreeType, cURL, gettext, LevelDB, LuaJIT, and hiredis."
21:28 asie i wonder why those in particular were mentioned
21:28 BrandonReese joined #minetest
21:30 Amaz_ All of those do not need to be installed, and are just optional.
21:31 Amaz_ Installed isn't the right word... Minetest doesn't need those to function would be better.
21:32 asie Amaz_: Can mods interface with them?
21:32 asie Especially LuaJIT makes me curious
21:32 lordcirth zsoltisawesome, well, that's why he made the luacontroller
21:33 lordcirth asie, LuaJIT is an optional, replacement lua Just-In-Time compiler that makes lua run faster.
21:33 asie i know what LuaJIT is
21:33 asie but I am talking from the perspective of the mod developer
21:33 asie LuaJIT includes a really good API for interfacing with C libraries should that need ever come
21:33 Amaz_ asie, I'm no expert, but LuaJIT makes mods function faster, LevelDB and hiredis are alternative backends for storing the map.
21:34 asie that's the /other/ benefit for LuaJIT
21:34 CraigyDavi joined #minetest
21:34 asie it lets you talk to C libraries very easily
21:34 asie if you're a mod
21:34 Amaz_ I don't know if that works in minetest... I haven't seen any mods utilising it...
21:34 lordcirth asie, maybe, but for most purposes the mod dev doesn't need to know whether it's luaJIT or not
21:35 asie indeed
21:35 PilzAdam asie, you shouldn't rely on LuaJIT being available
21:35 asie PilzAdam: I know, I know; it's just brainstorming
21:35 PilzAdam you can use C libraries in pure Lua too, see the irc mod
21:39 asie right
21:40 asie i'm trying to discern exactly what i can and can't do with minetest
21:40 asie in order to make certain decisions
21:40 lordcirth asie, did you look at the link I sent you?  It has a terminal / console block.
21:40 asie yes
21:41 asie it is inspiring
21:41 RealThinknoodles joined #minetest
21:42 asie i'm really liking what i'm seeing
21:42 asie and i think i will mod for minetest after all
21:42 asie ShadowNinja: your fault

21:43 ShadowNinja asie: Huh? Hi.
21:43 lordcirth asie, good for you.  Just make sure you check for duplicates first :)
21:43 asie i'm a minecraft modder
21:43 asie lordcirth: duplicates are perfectly fine
21:43 CraigyDavi left #minetest
21:43 asie and even desirable
21:43 asie competition is healthy
21:43 CraigyDavi joined #minetest
21:43 lordcirth asie, if yours is better, sure.
21:43 asie better *or* different
21:44 lordcirth well if it's enough different to be useful, then it's not a duplicate
21:45 asie is there any block logging mod yet?
21:45 asie as in, logging block changes on a map
21:46 Amaz_ Not that I know of...
21:46 FreeFull Heya asie
21:47 LandFormD http://www.zsolt.ninja
21:47 asie another thing is the computer mod itself but that will take a while
21:48 Amaz_ LandFormD: This webpage is not available.
21:48 LandFormD ya, i havent bought it yet
21:48 LandFormD it is freaking 21 bucks
21:48 Amaz_ Ah. That's a lot.

21:58 Enke joined #minetest
22:07 ShadowNinja ~tell asie There is no "block logging" mod because that is a built-in feature.  It's called rollback and records inventory actions too.  Also, we call 1x1 cubes "nodes" in Minetest.  "Blocks" are 16x16 sections, "chunks" are 80x80 sections, and "sectors" (not really used anymore) are 65000x16x65000 sections.
22:07 ShadowBot ShadowNinja: O.K.
22:07 Hirato joined #minetest
22:08 Enke Never heard of "sectors" before.
22:09 ShadowNinja Enke: Minetest used to store the map in multiple files that would each store a sector.  MineCraft still uses this fragmented aproach.
22:09 Enke Sounds slow-ish...
22:09 ShadowNinja Nowadays sectors arent used much.
22:10 ShadowNinja MC stores 4 sectors per file in in's Anvil format.  It's sectors are much smaller though.
22:10 ShadowNinja it's*
22:10 Enke Huh.
22:11 ShadowNinja They call them chunks though, I think.
22:11 ShadowNinja They're divided in half and then into 16x16x16 sections.
22:11 Enke I remember hearing something about MC's chunks, but I never did any real research into it.
22:13 Exio4 not worth it, true
22:26 OldCoder joined #minetest
22:29 Taoki Is it possible for a mod to disable a file in minetest_game? Something opposite to do_file... like undo_file or something
22:30 FreeFull I think making a custom game is the easiest way
22:31 FreeFull Maybe it is possible though
22:33 Someguy123 joined #minetest
22:34 lordcirth Taoki, do_file just runs the lua script, you can't "unrun" a script.  but you could override what it does.
22:35 Taoki Problem is player.lua will interfere with my new creatures mod. So it would have been nice if the mod was able to disable it
22:35 Taoki Typically the animations will
22:35 Taoki set_animation stuff
22:37 cisoun joined #minetest
23:00 floriel joined #minetest
23:01 floriel hi there
23:01 ShadowNinja Taoki: You can only override what it does.  Eg, set the animations back to what you want.
23:01 ShadowNinja Hello floriel.
23:02 Taoki ShadowNinja: player.lua in minetest_game sends a set_animation whenever a new set of keys is pressed. Likely conflicts with any other mod that does that
23:02 Taoki Should have been a way to disable it really. I might suggest that
23:03 floriel I'm searching the dev-wiki for a way to get all items of a group (e.g. group:wood) but can't find how to do it
23:03 floriel does anybody know how to do it?
23:03 ShadowNinja floriel: See how unified_inventory does it.  You have to inerate through all items and check their groups.
23:03 ShadowNinja iterate*
23:04 floriel thanks
