10:48 ziggy909 hi
10:48 ziggy909 which open source mc clone is farthest in development?
10:49 ziggy909 most important features being, proper monsters with ai, weapon renderer, multiplayer for many players without lag
10:52 ziggy909 does minetest have monsters?
10:53 ziggy909 and how many players does it support on a nice quad core vps?
10:56 SylvieLorxu joined #minetest
11:01 The_Loko joined #minetest
11:04 ziggy909 seems minetest has nice monsters
11:05 ziggy909 so my questions would boil down to: how many players does minetest support?
11:46 ThatGraemeGuy how long is a piece of string? :)

17:04 AgentFire What is the full screen button for Minetest?
17:04 Jordach this is no fun: https://i.imgur.com/OpciWzf.jpg
17:05 Broam joined #minetest
17:05 Jordach AgentFire, fullscreen = true \n screenW = <your screen's width> screenH = <your screen's height>
17:05 Jordach those lines in minetest.conf
17:06 AgentFire Yikes, that's going to require notepad. Which is a program that has been blocked on my computer. But I'll keep this in mind, thank you
17:06 Krock joined #minetest
17:06 Jordach AgentFire, /set fullscreen true
17:07 Jordach /set screenW <number>
17:07 Jordach /set screenH <number>
17:07 Jordach and restart
17:07 AgentFire Alright, thank you so much for your help
17:07 Jordach (or you can use Word or Wordpad to edit said files)
17:07 Krock hi
17:08 AgentFire One last question
17:08 AgentFire When you say with the height and width, do you mean in inches, or do you mean the numbers I'm seeing on the side of the box. (1366 x 768)
17:08 Krock Pixels!
17:09 Jordach pixels
17:09 AgentFire Oh okay, then, that makes it easier
17:09 Krock lol. inches would be a mess - using cm here
17:09 Jordach https://lut.im/4M8giDbN/56pE5IMv AgentFire
17:10 Calinou AgentFire, you may need /set -n
17:10 Calinou to create unexisting settings in minetest.conf
17:10 Calinou eg. /set -n fullscreen 1
17:11 rubenwardy joined #minetest
17:12 AgentFire Okay, I know I have a lot of questions but...
17:12 Calinou ask them :)
17:12 AgentFire When you have a skype call, there's the little call box that appears outside of the skype window. Would that show up if I was skyping someone and playing on Minetest at the same time?
17:13 Calinou Skype :(
17:13 Calinou in fullscreen, notifications should show
17:13 Calinou but no guarantees
17:13 Jordach AgentFire, yes
17:13 catninja skype *cringes*
17:13 Jordach it can appear on top of a rendering window
17:14 Jordach (anything can, provided it has on top of window ability
17:14 Jordach ((mt's fullscreen is a borderless window)))
17:14 AgentFire Thanks for your help. Btw, why is skype such a bad thing guys?
17:14 rubenwardy Hi all!

17:16 catninja they have a special skype edition for china with backdoors for the government
17:17 catninja AgentFire: need more reasons to look for an alternative? ;)
17:17 AgentFire Nah, but then again I can't
17:18 AgentFire It's the only way I keep in contact with my girlfriend, so... I'll have to take my chances
17:18 catninja because?
17:18 catninja aha
17:18 catninja and you cannot convince your girlfriend to make changes in communication? (just asking)
17:18 Calinou http://tox.im/
17:19 AgentFire Nah, it's too complicated. She's not very technologically smart
17:20 Calinou Tox probably isn't too hard to use, except the DNS part
17:21 catninja AgentFire: well the greatest thing about relationships is learning things from the other part

19:15 shadowzone what do you mean "lost"
19:15 shadowzone ?
19:15 Megaf before some update we could place, for example, "stairs" of several ways, now we are limited
19:15 Megaf shadowzone: because the way those items are placed have changed
19:15 shadowzone oh..
19:16 Megaf if you wanted it on its left side, you could place it to the wall at your right, for example
19:16 Megaf and now is all different

19:22 Calinou when did I change it?
19:22 Calinou like… a year ago
19:22 Calinou if you don't hold shift, placement is normal
19:22 ImQ009 joined #minetest

19:40 Calinou crap…
19:40 Calinou minetest.rotate_node apparently changed
19:40 Calinou I have to define my own, probably
19:40 Megaf Minetests fault again then?
19:40 Calinou yes, I use the core function
19:41 Megaf crap
19:41 Megaf I was afraid of that when I took a look at your commits
19:41 Calinou using it isn't bad, but it does change sometimes
19:42 Megaf Calinou: using your own would be a lot of work
19:42 Megaf or not?
19:42 Calinou probably
19:43 Calinou builtin/common/misc_helpers.lua
19:43 Calinou this is where rotate_node is defined
19:43 Megaf hm
19:43 Calinou VanessaE, I'd like to get help for this, seems quite complicated to fix, no idea when it broke
19:43 Calinou don't expect an immediate fix
19:44 Calinou so for now you can't automatically place wall Stairs+ nodes… only slabs
19:44 Calinou but slabs use the same function…
19:44 Megaf I will try to track when its changed, and revert the change on my server

19:50 Megaf yep
19:52 rubenwardy http://rubenwardy.github.io/minetest_doc/
19:52 VanessaE Calinou: G*d damn it, I KNEW that change would break something :(
19:52 VanessaE make a local copy of the function and change dirs1/2.
19:52 Calinou or have that commit reverted, although it is unlikely
19:52 VanessaE well, that commit DOES fix the slabs' texture rotation.
19:53 VanessaE somewhere along the way, something broke somewhere causing rotation of those slabs to go wrong
19:53 VanessaE idk what
19:53 VanessaE what happens to the stairs now?
19:54 Calinou they are either floor or ceiling
19:54 VanessaE er
19:54 Calinou they are ceiling if you hold Shift and place on floor
19:54 Calinou you can't place them as wall anymore
19:54 VanessaE dirs1/2 shouldn't change that?
19:54 VanessaE are you sure you're not forcing wall detection off by mistake?
19:54 Calinou it works on slabs
19:54 Calinou all on_place functions are minetest.rotate_node
19:55 VanessaE *sigh*

19:55 Megaf Calinou: I reverted that, will see if it fixes
19:55 kaeza <Agent_Fire> Yikes, that's going to require notepad. Which is a program that has been blocked on my computer. But I'll keep this in mind, thank you
19:56 kaeza who the hell disables notepad?
19:56 VanessaE hrm
19:57 Calinou hell itself
19:57 * kaeza imagines of a clueless admin disabling notepad for the "Administrators" group
19:57 Megaf you can do dengerous stuff with it
19:58 VanessaE ok this tells me something in the engine broke then with the rotation of the textures.  you know very well that I wrung that code out every which way to Sunday before I submitted it to builtin
19:58 VanessaE and the patch that was added was wrong; my initial fear was correct.
19:59 VanessaE you're right, it needs to be reverted and the root cause found.
20:00 LazyJ WorldEdit has been slightly fubared in recent Minetest updates too.
20:01 VanessaE yeah, problems with rollback.
20:01 LazyJ The old //save creates something that //load refuses and will crash the world (but MT keeps running).
20:01 Megaf VanessaE: Calinou: Yep, I reverted that and it's fixed now
20:01 VanessaE "crash the world"?
20:01 Megaf sorry for blaming you Calinou
20:02 Megaf here is the chat log and actions related to this on my server
20:02 Megaf http://paste.debian.net/plain/136050
20:02 VanessaE LazyJ: can you please be more specific?  MichaelEh has been asking me to update his "Big Sight" build on Creative from files he saved....
20:02 Megaf Calinou: I will open a bug report
20:02 LazyJ Yup, instead of MT going "poof" all together, the world blinks out to the blue-sky/clouds animation with a list of errors.
20:03 VanessaE ok that's bad.
20:03 seasaw joined #minetest
20:03 LazyJ But... if MT is compiled *without* LuaJIT, WorldEdit's save and load work fine.
20:04 LazyJ I posted an issue on WE's GitHub, Uberi recommended compiling MT without LuaJIT.
20:04 LazyJ https://github.com/Uberi/Minetest-WorldEdit/issues/67
20:05 Megaf Calinou: Can you open the issue please? You will be able to describe it better than me
20:05 Megaf This is the commit by the way https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/9878e8de4fdf232ebb77b396766c339786c01218
20:05 Megaf dvere: I blame you :P
20:06 Calinou thanks
20:07 LazyJ Oh, and the 2014_12_06 GitHub release of Minetest breaks some of Splizzard's "Snow" mods functions... again.
20:07 VanessaE this could be worked around by allowing custom dirs1/dirs2 tables to be passed to the function but that's a hack around the real problem
20:07 Calinou https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/1939
20:08 Calinou I go, bye
20:08 Megaf Bye Calinou, thanks
20:08 LazyJ This time it won't crash the server, just somethings won't melt and snowballs no longer build-up into snow blocks.

20:32 Megaf I have just broken one, my girlfriend will not like that, lol
20:32 PilzAdam RealBadAngel, have you looked at the screwdriver rewrite yet?
20:32 shadowzone XD
20:32 * Jordach always thought Megaf was a girl
20:32 Jordach Today I Learned
20:33 Megaf lol Jordach
20:33 shadowzone Jordach: *facepalms* I've known that forever now
20:33 RealBadAngel PilzAdam, a bit, theres one thing wrong wih it
20:33 RealBadAngel you have to read param2 and mask it
20:33 RealBadAngel upper bits can be used for other stuff
20:33 VanessaE PilzAdam: do ANY of these screwdriver rewrites allow for nodedef flags, groups, or something else that can tell the screwdriver to piss off?
20:34 PilzAdam VanessaE, what?
20:34 VanessaE (I have not reviewed any of them, and I know of perhaps three by now)
20:34 RealBadAngel VanessaE, no
20:34 PilzAdam RealBadAngel, did the old screwdriver mod do that?
20:34 RealBadAngel but it should be done
20:34 VanessaE PilzAdam: you know, as in...  ok, well there's my answer.
20:34 * MaleMegaf is using the scredriver rewrite on his server
20:34 MaleMegaf for a week or so
20:34 VanessaE PilzAdam: what I mean is, not to rotate certain nodes that have facedir.
20:34 LazyJ We added a priv to the screwdriver to keep untrusted players from using it.
20:34 hisforever joined #minetest
20:34 VanessaE e.g. objects composed of two or more nodes should NEVER allow such a rotation
20:34 MaleMegaf +1 to LazyJ
20:35 VanessaE but the screwdriver has no facility to be told not to allow it
20:35 RealBadAngel there should be a property like allow_screwdriver or dont_allow_screwdriver
20:35 PilzAdam VanessaE, could be done; out of scope for this PR though
20:35 RealBadAngel one of the above
20:35 MaleMegaf LazyJ: you can open an issue about it
20:35 VanessaE PilzAdam: oh sure.  just talking generally.
20:35 PilzAdam create an issue on mt_game?
20:35 VanessaE RealBadAngel: yeah, something like this.
20:35 VanessaE PilzAdam: I asked sfan5 about it months ago.
20:36 PilzAdam RealBadAngel, did the old screwdriver mod use masks to set/read param2?
20:36 RealBadAngel PilzAdam, many nodes made later can use parts (bits) of param2 not used before
20:36 VanessaE I even offered to code it.
20:36 LazyJ MaleMegaf, I think it was VanessaE who had the issue... nodes made of 2 or more.
20:36 RealBadAngel and that can be a problem
20:36 VanessaE my offer was basically hand-waved off as "we're too busy to care".
20:36 RealBadAngel screwdriver has to check them and preserve
20:36 MaleMegaf LazyJ: doors are made of two nodes
20:36 Vazon joined #minetest
20:36 PilzAdam RealBadAngel, did the old screwdriver mod use masks to set/read param2?
20:36 RealBadAngel which is the good point why we do need bit ops in lua
20:37 LazyJ Yup, doors get split.
20:37 MaleMegaf doors shoudnt even be rotated...
20:37 LazyJ But that hasn't been a problem for us since the "twist" priv was added to the screwdriver.
20:37 RealBadAngel PilzAdam, i made drawtypes use those bits after screwdriver was made
20:37 VanessaE LazyJ: homedecor desks, deck chairs, waterwells, etc.
20:37 PilzAdam ;_; why wont you answer my question?
20:37 RealBadAngel read above
20:38 RealBadAngel screwdriver is not aware of it
20:38 RealBadAngel neither original and the rewrite
20:38 PilzAdam so the answer is "no"?
20:38 RealBadAngel param2 when used have to be masked
20:39 RealBadAngel it is since always in the engine
20:39 LazyJ Actually, I wouldn't mind being able to rotate doors horizontally to make overhead cabinet doors and tailgates on trucks and wagons.
20:39 PilzAdam if the old screwdriver didn't do this then it's out of scope for the rewrite
20:39 RealBadAngel in mods it is not, because theres no simple way to do that
20:39 PilzAdam you can create an issue in minetest_game repo if you want
20:39 PilzAdam I will address this after the rewrite was merged
20:40 RealBadAngel rewrite should not carry the bugs further
20:40 RealBadAngel theres no excuse
20:40 PilzAdam out of scope period
20:40 RealBadAngel so you got the veto. period. ;)
20:40 MaleMegaf LazyJ: heh, that would be great indeed
20:40 MaleMegaf shadowzone: clothes-peg on the world and clothespin in USA
20:40 PilzAdam VanessaE, what about a rotate_node function in nodedef, that allows custom rotation of nodes? so door can be rotated, but properly
20:41 MaleMegaf LazyJ: Im still wating for single node trap door
20:41 PilzAdam RealBadAngel, good thing you don't have a vote-right at minetest_game
20:41 MaleMegaf I might do that soon
20:42 VanessaE PilzAdam: allow_screwdriver.  if explicitly set to false, screwdriver can't used on this node.  if nil or true, assume the current behavior.
20:42 VanessaE or disable_screwdriver = true
20:42 VanessaE either of those would make it obvious
20:43 PilzAdam VanessaE, the function would have way more potential
20:43 VanessaE but a function? no.  that's overkill.
20:43 PilzAdam and nodes that don't want rotation at all could just set an empty function
20:43 VanessaE no.
20:43 PilzAdam door should be able to be rotated; but both nodes at once
20:43 RealBadAngel PilzAdam, i dont even want to contribute to mt game at all. things you have done to it are overkill
20:43 VanessaE that's just overkill
20:43 VanessaE just use a group in the node def.
20:43 VanessaE keep it simple!
20:44 RealBadAngel there are better games than minetest_game out there
20:44 LazyJ Doors rotated as a whole, not split, and rotating wood fences horizontally to simulate rope on ships, or as a walkable grid, and as over head roof in gazebo's.
20:44 PilzAdam RealBadAngel, "all things you have done" which ones?
20:45 RealBadAngel PilzAdam, remember group stone? and furnaces being able to make from every stone out there for example?
20:45 PilzAdam yes?
20:46 PilzAdam adding furnace for each stone type would be overkill
20:46 RealBadAngel since there you have pissed on my opinion roughly, so i was a bit suprised you are asking me about screwdriver. but you have pissed on my opinion once again
20:47 RealBadAngel so nothing changed :P
20:47 PilzAdam what?
20:47 PilzAdam you said the screwdriver is good, except one thing that is out of scope for this
20:47 RealBadAngel i said it is broken :P
20:47 RealBadAngel because of one fundamental thing
20:48 PilzAdam okay, let me rephrase my question
20:48 VanessaE well I dunno.
20:48 PilzAdam did the screwdriver become _worse_?
20:48 RealBadAngel but you said its out of scope, so whatever
20:48 VanessaE PilzAdam: it IS titled "screwdriver *rewrite*"
20:48 PilzAdam i.e. apart from the param2 thing
20:48 VanessaE does not a "rewrite" suggest a pretty much indefinite scope?
20:49 RealBadAngel PilzAdam, MAIN point of screwdriver is to let players change param2
20:49 PilzAdam VanessaE, does it?
20:49 RealBadAngel this is param2 tool for christ sake
20:49 RealBadAngel if its not able to do it right, it screwed ;)
20:49 VanessaE PilzAdam: to most people I know, yeah.  when you rewrite something you usually open the door for a minor feature or two in the process.
20:49 VanessaE RealBadAngel: don't you mean "it screwdrivered"? ;)
20:50 RealBadAngel hehehe
20:50 PilzAdam VanessaE, it's titled incorrectly then; it only changes the way the player interacts with it
20:50 RealBadAngel onlY/
20:50 RealBadAngel ?
20:50 RealBadAngel it changes everything
20:50 VanessaE "remove unused variables" affects how the player interacts with it?
20:51 PilzAdam VanessaE, that is a minor code cleanup related to the commit that changes how the player interacts with it
20:51 PilzAdam the variable was not unused before the first commit
20:51 RealBadAngel there are no modes anymore
20:52 RealBadAngel it will lack the functionality
20:52 VanessaE PilzAdam: well my point there is that this pull clearly does more than just changing how the user interacts with the tool.
20:52 PilzAdam RealBadAngel, the great thing is that it doesn't need to have all these confusing modes and will still have the same functionality
20:52 VanessaE RealBadAngel: honestly, the mode-1-2-3-4 paradigm was confusing as all fuck :P
20:52 jojoa1997 joined #minetest
20:53 RealBadAngel im not opposing to that
20:53 RealBadAngel i just got used to it
20:53 RealBadAngel so i pointed out only wrong param2 handling
20:53 PilzAdam RealBadAngel, can we do a thought-experiment?
20:54 RealBadAngel sure. is there a mod for that? ;)
20:54 PilzAdam imagine a world where param2 handling wouldn't be an issue for the screwdriver
20:54 PilzAdam would you agree to that pull requests in this imagined world?
20:54 RealBadAngel sadly there is no such world
20:55 VanessaE depends on how the user interface to the screwdriver is handled of course.
20:55 VanessaE but probably.
20:55 Halamix2 joined #minetest
20:55 PilzAdam RealBadAngel, you are doing it wrong
20:55 RealBadAngel hands off param2 bits 7, 6, 5 and 4
20:55 PilzAdam ;_;
20:55 RealBadAngel theyre reserved by engine and you as a modder should know that
20:56 VanessaE PilzAdam: also, you need to explain in your pull request just what exactly the new control system is
20:56 VanessaE I don't find anything that describes it
20:56 VanessaE is this the X-Y-Z axes method, or the left/right click method?
20:56 VanessaE or something new?
20:56 RealBadAngel atm im telling you that screwdriver code will be fucked up
20:56 RealBadAngel because of that
20:56 VanessaE looks like left/right clickjs
20:56 VanessaE -j
20:56 PilzAdam VanessaE, see the tooltip of the screwdriver
20:56 VanessaE +description = "Screwdriver (left-click rotates face, right-click rotates axis)",
20:57 RealBadAngel facedir is 0-23 so bits 0-3
20:57 VanessaE yeah, I saw that just as you mentioned it
20:57 RealBadAngel and those are only bits screwdriver can work on
20:57 PilzAdam RealBadAngel, are you seriously unable to judge the new interaction with the screwdriver and ignoring the param2 issue?
20:58 PilzAdam this is getting ridiculous by now
20:58 VanessaE still, you should probably copy&paste some of the text in PR 315 back to PR 375
20:58 VanessaE (just the lead paragraph anyway)

21:00 PilzAdam ah, so you are ok with it
21:00 PilzAdam great

22:22 VanessaE for a well-built-up world, 10+ gigs isn't uncommon
22:23 Lugal for me its 37 megs, though only 1 or 2 days work
22:23 Lugal or 3
22:23 Lugal but why so big?

22:26 VanessaE largest is actually 6.2 GB, smallest is 289 MB.
22:26 Jordach oh god 60fps rendering takes ages
22:27 VanessaE no, not each pixel, but each mapblock, which contains 16x16x16 nodes (a node is a single object such as a fencepost or a glob of dirt)
22:27 Jordach thats going to be a phat file when it finishes
22:27 VanessaE Lugal: the above is leveldb maps.  in sqlite format, it would be almost twice that size.
22:28 Viper168 joined #minetest
22:28 Lugal is it not possible to make it smaller? I mean a 100x1000x1000 map which is really big, bould be just 100 MB
22:29 VanessaE Lugal: well a 1000^3 map wouldn't be saved in its entirety because Minetest only saves mapblocks that have been explored
22:29 Lugal so for a normal map maybe 10 MB
22:29 Jordach im surprised we don't have mapblock compression
22:29 DuDraig joined #minetest
22:29 Jordach anytime a 16^3 area is the same node, make 1 entry in place of 16^3
22:29 VanessaE Lugal: also, a Minetest world can extend to just shy of 62 x 62 x 62 km in size.
22:29 Lugal if there is 16^3 dirt, is it not compressed?
22:30 VanessaE but only the mapblocks that have actually been visited (and ones nearby) will ever be saved to disk.
22:30 Jordach Lugal, not even compressed
22:30 VanessaE Jordach: not correct.
22:30 VanessaE Lugal: if you're using leveldb as your map format, some mild compression is used, yes.
22:30 VanessaE but not if you're using sqlite.
22:30 Lugal and one block= Byte?
22:30 Jordach VanessaE, if minetest did, that would save tons of space in areas such as skies
22:30 Jordach Lugal, wrong
22:31 Jordach (probably more than that)
22:31 VanessaE I forget how much data a mapblock takes, but a single node is like 4 bytes or something
22:31 Lugal but 1 byte would be enough
22:31 VanessaE Jordach: minetest relies on whatever compression the backend uses.  leveldb uses some low-end optimized-for-speed compression method.
22:31 VanessaE it ain't exactly "deflate".
22:31 Lugal 1 byte is enough for 255 different materials
22:32 VanessaE Lugal: Minetest supposed 32768 materials.
22:32 VanessaE supports*
22:32 Lugal lol
22:32 Jordach VanessaE, more depending on the compilation of the enginbe
22:32 VanessaE and you have to have info about other properties of a node, such as its rotation.
22:32 VanessaE Jordach: right.
22:32 Jordach VanessaE, because dem vectors
22:33 Lugal ah ok
22:33 VanessaE Jordach: the hard limit is 65534 but you'll recall why 32768 was chosen
22:33 Jordach i should query the number of nodes in BFD
22:34 VanessaE Lugal: anyway each node has a node reference (two bytes), a rotation/etc value called "param2", and a misc value called param1 (its usage varies depending on the node type)
22:35 VanessaE Lugal: and then there's metadata, such as text in a sign or ownership information for a locked door, and then a bit more data on top of that of course to designate the start/end of a map block I guess
22:35 VanessaE and then info describing things like entities in the mapblock
