01:33 jojoa1997       How do i make a function run before the player is put in the world?
01:34 jojoa1997       I have it set the position of a block but the player keeps falling before the block is loaded.
02:56 btoothpick      I'd like a world map on minetest
04:24 Wuzzy           Hey, what is the recommended icon size for subgame icons in 0.4.12?
08:50 rubenwardy      Hi all!
08:50 rubenwardy      Are modpacks in modpacks officially supported?
08:51 rubenwardy      Because the mod configuration doesn't like it.
09:09 fuznuts         hey everyone is there a tool for easily and quickly shaping the land in game as a GM of your server?
09:09 fuznuts         I want to make a large island in the shape of an X
09:11 rubenwardy      Worldedit
09:11 rubenwardy      A mod
10:10 JamesTait       Good morning all; happy Grammar Day! :-D
10:16 fuznuts         thanks ruben
10:16 fuznuts         do i need to access it from the server or do I just add it some other way?
10:17 fireglow        good morning JamesTait, happy ignore eternity! :-D
10:18 JamesTait       fireglow, o/ I have enough to fit into a single day that eternity will be eternally ignored. :-P
10:20 rubenwardy      fuznuts, you need to install it on the server and have the WorldEdit privilege. Or use it on multiplayer as a normal mod
10:20 fuznuts         anywhere you know of that has a guide to using it?
10:20 fuznuts         nvm i'll look for it :)
10:20 fuznuts         thanks for your time guys and gals

11:48 meldrian        Hello
12:24 fuznuts         so do I install worldedit on the server or on the client side?
12:24 fuznuts         @meldrian Hello :)
12:40 ElectronLibre   fuznuts, I don't know if someone already answered you but, all mods are installed server-side.
12:41 fuznuts         thanks electron.  so I just log into the server, shut down the minetest server process, go to the hidden minetest folder in %appsdata% and insert the mod, correct?
12:43 ElectronLibre   Insert the mod in <hiddenfolder>/mods, or <hiddenforlder>/worlds/<server's map>/worldmods/
12:43 fuznuts         thank you my friend ....very much.
12:43 fuznuts         when i am finished with the server, perhaps I can invite you to join us :)
12:44 fuznuts         gotta shut computer now
12:44 ElectronLibre   I'm working on something else, and to be honest I don't play very often, but why not.
14:09 Wuzzy           Do Minetest servers use TCP or UDP?
14:10 fireglow        UDP

16:23 SilvaMerner     Boo
16:23 ElectronLibre   ?
16:26 jordan4ibanez   Ohai
16:26 jordan4ibanez   You scared him away
16:27 ElectronLibre   [Sh/H]e was trying to scare us apparently, (s)he said "boo".
16:29 DusXMT          (it's simpler to just use the gender-neutral `they')
16:29 jordan4ibanez   Splee and Splur
16:29 ElectronLibre   Yes, indeed, but as a french speaker I'm too much used to use gender pronouns..
16:31 * ElectronLibre just found something interesting for VanessaE in plantlife. There is (literally) a little bug running on the plants.
16:45 btoothpick      Any git experts, or least one that can tell me how to replace older files with new ones in my path?
16:45 jordan4ibanez   I believe it's git add *
16:45 jordan4ibanez   git commit -M "poop"
16:45 jordan4ibanez   git push origin master
16:46 jordan4ibanez   I haven't used git in a while though
16:46 ElectronLibre   git add . && git stash && git reset --hard HEAD <== to be sure, everything is destroyed.
16:46 ElectronLibre   Then git pull origin master to update.
16:46 ElectronLibre   If you don't want to destroy your changed just pull.
16:47 gravgun         jordan4ibanez: isn't it git commit -m "poop" instead of "-M"?
16:47 ElectronLibre   It's -m.
16:47 jordan4ibanez   I just don't know, like I said I haven't used it in a while
16:47 ElectronLibre   (wow, I like this commit message ^)
16:47 gravgun         ElectronLibre, you should check out my very informative commits on my local repo :3
16:48 gravgun         *commit messages
16:48 jordan4ibanez   git commit -m "hey guys I just wanted to tell you something, now before I run out of room I'd just like to say that I di"
16:48 ElectronLibre   Oh my.
16:48 ElectronLibre   Most of mine are git commit -m `date +%D` .
16:48 Gael-de-Sailly  Hello, I have some problems with minetest.generate_ores. It seems it don't work.
16:49 ElectronLibre   btoothpick, just git pull origin master, it should work fine.
16:49 ElectronLibre   Gael-de-Sailly, give the code you used in a paste, and your version of minetest.
16:49 ElectronLibre   It may help :).
16:49 Gael-de-Sailly  lastest version
16:49 btoothpick      ElectronLibre: sounds easy enough...I have dreambuilder in my games path which I got originally with git
16:49 Gael-de-Sailly  I'll make a gist
16:50 ElectronLibre   So btoothpick it should work fine, except if you modified something.
16:50 btoothpick      So from from the games path (not in the dreambuilder path, one level up) I type git pull urlfordreambuilder?
16:51 btoothpick      Well there are additional player textures and two additional modules.
16:51 ElectronLibre   You type it in the dreambuilder path.
16:51 btoothpick      A news, and mobs.
16:51 btoothpick      ok
16:52 btoothpick      got it
16:52 btoothpick      wow, it is easy!
16:52 btoothpick      Thanks
16:52 crazyR          jordan4ibanez: i saw your trains, cant wait for them to be finished
16:53 Gael-de-Sailly  https://gist.github.com/Gael-de-Sailly/b8f43eb331c6377965d8#file-mapgen-lua-L52
16:54 Gael-de-Sailly  The mapgen works, except the ores
16:54 ElectronLibre   What happens with this?
16:54 Gael-de-Sailly  It don't generate any ore
16:54 Gael-de-Sailly  but there is stone
16:55 ElectronLibre   Oh. I have to suggestions : 1) Ores are generated but overriden by another generation, 2) generate_ores is broken.
16:56 ElectronLibre   Could it be possible to only use register_ore, write_data and update_map just to check the ores are there?
16:57 Gael-de-Sailly  I'll try it
16:58 btoothpick      VanessaE: Undeclared global variable homedecor_register_slope
16:59 btoothpick      I doubt that's helpful, I'll look for the forum area to post any errors.
17:00 ElectronLibre   And VanessaE I've got a missing texture error for you in plantlife.
17:01 btoothpick      I'm impressed with Minetest though.
17:01 btoothpick      I should spend some time learning to contribute though.
17:17 Gael-de-Sailly  The function minetest.generate_ores works.
17:18 ElectronLibre   So it's an override.
17:19 ElectronLibre   You could try with all the update calls, and remove "generate_decorations".
17:26 Gael-de-Sailly  I've found the problem
17:26 ElectronLibre   generate_decorations?
17:26 Gael-de-Sailly  Surprising : it's in the mod "default" of mnetest_game
17:26 Gael-de-Sailly  *minetest_game
17:27 Gael-de-Sailly  Ores aren't generated if mgname is singlenode
17:28 Gael-de-Sailly  https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/blob/master/mods/default/mapgen.lua#L775
17:29 ElectronLibre   That is quite normal in fact, nothing is generated in singlenode.
17:29 Gael-de-Sailly  Yes but we use singlenode to make custom mapgens
17:34 Gael-de-Sailly  Something else is odd : paramat's noise23 use the same way to turn the mgname into singlenode. And ores can still be generated by adding "minetest.generate_ores(vm)"
17:44 Gael-de-Sailly  Why are ores not registered in singlenode mapgen ?
17:45 Gael-de-Sailly  https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/blob/master/mods/default/mapgen.lua#L775
17:47 btoothpick      The mts and we files I create with mcedit don't import. They crash the minetest server with some kind of 0 error. I'd like to figure this out.
17:48 Krock           meow
17:49 * ElectronLibre meows at Krock
18:23 VanessaE        ElectronLibre: what texture error?
18:23 VanessaE        btoothpick: ignore that global error, I'll deal with that later.
18:25 btoothpick      Thanks.
18:37 Zytum           Tg1, someone is asking you in gane...
18:37 Zytum           game*
18:37 Zytum           is called Slin
18:37 shadowzone      Zytum: I know him
18:38 Dumbeldor       Hi, you know how to use a database for mod?
18:38 Tg1             Oh hi Zytum did not kno that you are here too :D
18:39 Zytum           O only came for advice
18:40 Zytum           I can't help good, so if someone ask me, I'm sorry
18:41 ElectronLibre   VanessaE: plantlife_modpack, vines mod, shears.lua, the wielded texture doesn't exist anymore. "shears.png" is "vines_shears.png".
18:41 Dumbeldor       Zytum: Thanks :D
18:42 ElectronLibre   Dumbeldor, what do you mean by database? Sqlite? A folder where are stocker all the mods with an update system like git pull (git submodule foreach "git pull origin master" in fact)?
18:42 btoothpick      is 0,0,0 the center of the map?
18:42 VanessaE        bas080: ^^^^^
18:42 VanessaE        (he maintains the vines component again)
18:42 Zytum           No problem
18:43 Krock           btoothpick, define a "center"
18:43 Calinou         https://lut.im/eEuCLNJ7/D0TDLPwu
18:43 Dumbeldor       ElectronLibre: To store all the information mods directly into a database, and then use the information in a website
18:43 ElectronLibre   Ok thanks VanessaE I will see with bas080.
18:43 btoothpick      when you generate a flat map (for vieiwing)
18:43 btoothpick      http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=849375screenshot2.png
18:43 btoothpick      is x,y 0,0 the center of the flat map?
18:43 Krock           btoothpick, yes, then it's  0,0
18:44 ElectronLibre   Dumbeldor, you would have to modify the mods to copys datas into a dabatabase file...
18:44 btoothpick      thanks
18:44 Krock           is that karsthafen?
18:44 Krock           meh. it's hograrts
18:45 Dumbeldor       Yes, I looked sqlite3, I saw that he supported in lua.
18:45 Dumbeldor       I was testing with mysql ...
18:45 Krock           Dumbeldor, there's a stroage mod
18:46 btoothpick      Yes, I was going to try to export something from it, and import it somewhere else with worldedit
18:46 Krock           *storage
18:46 Salbei          Dumbeldor: you can look that: http://keplerproject.github.io/luasql/doc/us/
18:46 Dumbeldor       Krock: Ok
18:47 Dumbeldor       Salbei: Thanks !
19:00 VanessaE        Salbei: regarding your pipeworks error, remove the protector mod and use something more current like areas mod.
19:01 VanessaE        (I should just drop support for that old code)
19:01 VanessaE        those old protection mods don't use the engine's protection support, so are considered outdated
19:08 Salbei          Protector Redo is outdated?
19:08 est31           no that isnt
19:08 est31           that also uses engine's protection API
19:08 est31           I guess at least
19:09 est31           but it has the problem that on every block you dig, around 11^3 blocks are queried on the server
19:09 est31           which can cause load
19:20 Zytum           bye
20:13 Dumbeldor       list
20:13 Dumbeldor       ... sorry
21:01 fuznuts         how to do this?    (  Insert the mod in <hiddenfolder>/mods, or <hiddenforlder>/worlds/<server's map>/worldmods/  )
21:01 fuznuts         i can't find the minetest hidden folder
21:03 shadowzone      fuznuts, try looking for a .minetest folder
21:03 shadowzone      CTRL + H
21:03 fuznuts         can't find it in %appsdata%
21:04 shadowzone      you're on windows?
21:04 shadowzone      look for the file you downloaded and it should have a mods folder
21:04 Calinou         fuznuts, by default, on Windows, the mods go to the same folder where you installed Minetest.
21:05 Calinou         a reminder: please do not install Minetest in Program Files
21:06 fuznuts         do I create a mods folder?
21:06 shadowzone      Nope
21:06 fuznuts         found
21:06 fuznuts         !
21:06 Calinou         it is created in the default install
21:30 fuznuts         is there a 2d map tool I can use to edit the landscape in significant ways from outside the game?
21:31 fuznuts         it looks like world edit would be great for building cities and stuff but hard for doing large swaths of terrain.
21:31 ElectronLibre   To edit it : no. To see it : yes, minetestmapper.
21:38 fuznuts         is a "node" an instance of the game you are working on?
21:38 DusXMT          It's a "block"
21:38 Calinou         fuznuts, no, a node is what you'd call a “block” in Minecraft
21:40 fuznuts         oh so anything labeled a "node" is actually a block, which I can add properties and textures to
21:40 Calinou         yes
21:41 fuznuts         thanks :)
21:43 ElectronLibre   But, you can add these things to a node at the server's starting. When it's start, you can't normally add anything.
