Any games you like? |
| 00:36 |
sofar |
I've got almost 50 games in there, I think |
| 00:36 |
sofar |
Lua question: how can I make a tool "wear" bar appear in the inventory for my tool? |
| 00:37 |
Etzos |
I also use Steam. |
| 00:43 |
Etzos |
sofar: Use `itemstack:add_wear(wearlevel)` where itemstack is an ItemStack and wearlevel is a number between 0 and 65535. This is typically done in the after_use callback of an item def. |
| 00:43 |
sofar |
I can't do it in the on_use() ? |
| 00:43 |
sofar |
I was calling that, no effect ... |
| 00:44 |
Etzos |
It should still work in on_use() I believe. |
| 00:44 |
VanessaE |
normally the game will set the wear level for you on use. you shouldn't need to call it that at all... |
| 00:44 |
VanessaE |
-it |
| 00:44 |
sofar |
special case, I'm making a watering can |
| 00:44 |
sofar |
the wear level equals "filled up" |
| 00:44 |
sofar |
kind of like technic's mining laser? |
| 00:45 |
VanessaE |
there's a water can in technic you might want to look at |
| 00:45 |
VanessaE |
(hold 10 sources) |
| 00:45 |
VanessaE |
holds* |
| 00:45 |
Etzos |
Are you remembering to return the itemstack? |
| 00:46 |
Etzos |
^ sofar |
| 00:46 |
VanessaE |
sofar: so....when are you gonna totally overtake the farming and farming-plus mods? :) |
| 00:47 |
sofar |
VanessaE: I'd like to replace the default in-game crops, but I don't want to make a hodge-podge of crops |
| 00:47 |
sofar |
I'm more interested in a few well balanced farming items |
| 00:47 |
sofar |
and make them work really, really well |
| 00:48 |
VanessaE |
ok |
| 00:48 |
sofar |
basically, 30 crops is too much |
| 00:48 |
sofar |
2 is not enough |
| 00:48 |
sofar |
imo the default game should have 6-8 crops max? |
| 00:48 |
VanessaE |
30 heh |
| 00:48 |
VanessaE |
the default game has 2, which I agree isn't enough |
| 00:48 |
sofar |
maybe I'll actually modify cotton and wheat as well |
| 00:48 |
VanessaE |
farming_plus adds about 8 more. |
| 00:49 |
sofar |
but, more importantly, I don't want 8 boring same-game-mechanic crops |
| 00:49 |
sofar |
if all crops grow the same, work the same, etc. there's no reason to make more crops |
| 00:49 |
VanessaE |
I'd like to be able to replace farming and/or farming_plus in dreambuilder with something better (but without leaving unknown nodes all around) |
| 00:49 |
sofar |
the fun is in the little details that make each plant unique |
| 00:50 |
sofar |
yes, once I'm done with features I might just take a stab at submitting it to minetest_game |
| 00:50 |
VanessaE |
cool |
| 00:50 |
sofar |
that would not cause any unknown nodes |
| 00:51 |
sofar |
and I could change wheat seed mechanic better |
| 00:51 |
sofar |
also, with wheat and tomatoes, I should add a pizza recipe |
| 00:51 |
sofar |
:) |
| 00:51 |
VanessaE |
heh |
| 00:51 |
VanessaE |
but you need a mobs mod too |
| 00:52 |
VanessaE |
(for the meat :) ) |
| 00:52 |
sofar |
yes, mobs, another contentious terrain with lots of mods |
| 00:52 |
sofar |
not touching that one just yet ;) |
| 00:53 |
sofar |
indeed, returning the itemstack was the missing bit |
| 00:54 |
sofar |
Etzos: tyty |
| 00:54 |
Etzos |
sofar: No problem. Rewriting the Lua API has hammered some of the things like that into my head even if I haven't made any mods. XD |
| 00:55 |
sofar |
I've managed to cover quite a bit of the API at this point |
| 00:55 |
sofar |
just did particles yesterday |
| 00:55 |
sofar |
now I can show whether crops are withering or soaked |
| 00:58 |
Etzos |
Speaking of the API, there doesn't happen to be a way to make blocks like sand or gravel fall after being set, does there? |
| 00:59 |
sofar |
you can place() them instead of set_node() ? |
| 00:59 |
sofar |
maybe follow that codepath to see where it would cause falling |
| 01:00 |
Etzos |
I was hoping to avoid having to do that. |
| 01:04 |
VanessaE |
Etzos: add them to the falling_node group I think |
| 01:04 |
VanessaE |
or duh |
| 01:04 |
|
Viper168 joined #minetest |
| 01:04 |
VanessaE |
those already are. |
| 01:04 |
VanessaE |
call nodeupdate(pos) after placing them |
| 01:05 |
Etzos |
nodeupdate(pos)? |
| 01:06 |
VanessaE |
mmhmm |
| 01:07 |
VanessaE |
that causes stuff to fall and light to be re-calculated for the given node position |
| 01:07 |
sofar |
nice, I need to remember that |
| 01:07 |

VanessaE |
gimme! |
| 01:08 |

| 01:08 |

Hm. That's not in the lua_api.txt at all. Good to know though. |

Ok, it should be around /usr/share/games/minetest/ or ~/.minetest/ |

Anyway, the package is quite old, you should consider compiling it to get the last release. |

Resetting the file could be bad, for example, if you are able to fix it (like you did). |
| 12:56 |
crazyR |
what would be bad about it? just wondering |
| 12:58 |
crazyR |
i would think it would do no harm to call ServerEnvironment::saveMeta() and odify it so we can set the variables upon an env error |
| 12:58 |
ElectronLibre |
I don't exactly remember what is contained in it, but if you want to keep these data, you may want to try fixing the file instead of resetting it. |

Calinou |
and see what happens |
| 17:25 |
Hijiri |
and then provide it when asked |
| 17:25 |
Hijiri |
actually I'm not sure, maybe the requirement is that it's somewhere accessible |
| 17:27 |
Hijiri |
it says you need to include an offer, valid for 3 years, to give the source code |
| 17:27 |
Calinou |
that's a written offer |
| 17:28 |

not valid for electronic distribution |

wow it's passward fieild and username field are one |

*field |
| 17:36 |
Etzos |
Under GPLv3+ the "written offer" also applies to non-physical forms. |
| 17:37 |
Calinou |
Minetest is LGPLv2.1+ |
| 17:37 |
Etzos |
Correct. |
| 17:37 |
Etzos |
That means it can be distributed under the terms of the LGPLv3. |
| 17:37 |
Etzos |
Which follows the same "written offer" rules as the GPLv3. |
| 17:38 |
CWz |
The worst part about SqueakeCraft that username = password |
| 17:38 |
Calinou |
lol |
| 17:39 |
CWz |
My guess is that this is to bypass the no-emptypasswords setting |
| 17:40 |
Calinou |
we should have some password checks, like forbid username = password |
| 17:43 |
Hijiri |
they could make it password = username ++ "pass" |

Hello, great devs |
| 21:26 |
sfan5 |
hi |
| 21:26 |
TheWild |
could someone help me understand the communication protocol, because I feel I missed something |
| 21:27 |
sfan5 |
what did you try so far? |
| 21:27 |
sfan5 |
or rather look at |
| 21:27 |
TheWild |
there is no good protocol documentation like this http://wiki.vg/Protocol (it's unofficial btw) and I was looking at the code |
| 21:27 |
TheWild |
http://pastebin.com/Dy3EyU8z |
| 21:27 |
sfan5 |
we don't have a good protocol documentation, right |
| 21:28 |
|
Out`Of`Control joined #minetest |

sfan5 |
if you want to understand the protocol look into clientserver.h and the files that use the protocol (client.cpp, server.cpp) |
| 21:29 |
sfan5 |
TheWild: I'd guess the 01 is TYPE_ORIGINAL (the packet just has no content) |

Can a client be uniquely identified? |
| 21:46 |
sofar |
paxcoder: with what information? |
| 21:46 |
sofar |
paxcoder: by whom? |
| 21:46 |
paxcoder |
sofar, by the server |
| 21:47 |
paxcoder |
!up 87.110.8.195 |

87.110.8.195:30000 seems to be down |
| 21:47 |
paxcoder |
!up 87.110.8.195:30001 |
| 21:47 |

paxcoder: use 'example.org 1337' instead of 'example.org:1337' |
| 21:47 |

MinetestBot |
87.110.8.195:30001 seems to be down |
| 21:47 |
sofar |
paxcoder: not sure yet what you're asking for. You can have multiple clients on an IP address, so yeah, the server can identify each client separately |
| 21:48 |
paxcoder |
sofar, i meant each build |
| 21:48 |
sofar |
paxcoder: ahhhh, that makes more sense |
| 21:49 |
paxcoder |
so that the server can perhaps give useful things to players, and yet prevent spamming new accounts to get them. |
| 21:50 |
sofar |
wait, you just want the first login of a user to give him some one-time items? |
| 21:50 |
paxcoder |
yep |
| 21:52 |
paxcoder |
sofar, are you thinking, searching, or am i waiting in vain? |
| 21:52 |
sofar |
all of those |
| 21:52 |
paxcoder |
:D |
| 21:52 |
sofar |
just kidding, only the first two ;) |
| 21:53 |
xenkey |
All of the above [x] |

uroboro joined #minetest |
| 21:53 |
sofar |
so there's no event that I know of that you can use |
| 21:53 |
sofar |
but there's an easy solution that isn't too bad |
| 21:53 |
sofar |
first, you create a new permission called "present" or something like that |
| 21:53 |
sofar |
and you make sure that it's given to new players by default |
| 21:54 |
|
GaboXandre left #minetest |
| 21:54 |
xenkey |
Etzos: Ping. |
| 21:54 |
sofar |
then, you allow those users to get something when they have that permission, and revoke it as they get their items |
| 21:54 |
sfan5 |
sofar: ...or you just use on_newplayer |
| 21:54 |
sofar |
lel |
| 21:54 |
xenkey |
That ^ |
| 21:55 |
sofar |
sfan5: google failed us, all |
| 21:55 |
xenkey |
Use ddg |
| 21:55 |
xenkey |
Or bing |
| 21:55 |
sfan5 |
look into lua_api.txt |
| 21:55 |
sofar |
minetest.register_on_newplayer(function(player) |
| 21:55 |
xenkey |
No |
| 21:55 |
sofar |
https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/blob/master/mods/give_initial_stuff/init.lua |
| 21:55 |
xenkey |
) |
| 21:55 |
sofar |
? |
| 21:56 |
sofar |
already a mod for that |
| 21:56 |
xenkey |
You never closed the first |
| 21:56 |
paxcoder |
sofar, how does any of that ensure only the first account gets the stuff? |
| 21:56 |
xenkey |
Nupe |
| 21:56 |
xenkey |
Set a limit on accounts |
| 21:56 |
sofar |
paxcoder: I assume that event fires only when a new user account is added |
| 21:56 |
xenkey |
!mod names_per_ip |
| 21:56 |
MinetestBot |
xenkey: Names per IP [names_per_ip] by Calinou - https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=9768 |
| 21:59 |
paxcoder |
sofar, s/only when/every time/ |
| 21:59 |
sofar |
yeah, yuck, that's not helpful |
| 21:59 |
sofar |
so then my method will work |
| 22:00 |
sofar |
otherwise, you'd have to keep a table in memory and store it to make it persistent |
| 22:00 |
paxcoder |
MinetestBot, that's different |
| 22:00 |
paxcoder |
sofar, what's your method again? |
| 22:00 |
sofar |
grant default priv, use that to give out stuff and revoke priv |
| 22:01 |
paxcoder |
sofar, um... |
| 22:01 |
paxcoder |
sofar, please explain how that addresses the issue |
| 22:02 |
sofar |
privs are not granted every login, only on account creation or admin action |
| 22:02 |
sofar |
so once the user loses the priv, he can't regain it |
| 22:03 |
sofar |
so then you can use minetest.register_on_newplayer() to detect a user has that priv and revoke it |
| 22:03 |
xenkey |
MinetestBot: what was that link again? |
| 22:03 |
sfan5 |
sofar: thats does exactly the same as using on_newplayer |
| 22:03 |
kaeza |
well, that's basically the same as on_newplayer |
| 22:03 |
* kaeza |
purrs at sfan5 |
| 22:03 |
paxcoder |
sofar is so confused |
| 22:03 |
* sfan5 |
meows at kaeza |

* xenkey |
eats kaeza |
| 22:04 |
kaeza |
D: |
| 22:04 |
sofar |
I'm not confused |
| 22:04 |
kaeza |
there's no reliable way to "identify" a client |
| 22:04 |
kaeza |
in the sense that you mean |
| 22:04 |
sofar |
oh, now I get it |
| 22:05 |
sofar |
you want to prevent multiple accounts from one IP to get free stuff |
| 22:05 |
paxcoder |
sofar, as sfan5 says, that does what on_newplayer does, only in a complicated way |
| 22:05 |
paxcoder |
i want to prevent multiple accounts from one build to get initial things |
| 22:05 |
xenkey |
Use names per ip |
| 22:06 |
paxcoder |
no |
| 22:06 |
TheWild |
sfan: nice, I was looking at everything in /network but not in the main directory. Now still confused, but I'll keep reading the code and maybe even understand what's going on, then craft some pretty doc |
| 22:06 |
TheWild |
Thanks for help |
| 22:06 |
kaeza |
paxcoder, it's possible to keep a register of name<->ip pairs, but that is not 100% reliable |
| 22:07 |
xenkey |
Why not? |
| 22:07 |
sfan5 |
TheWild: saying just "sfan" does not highlight me |
| 22:07 |
xenkey |
A few mistakes can't hurt |
| 22:07 |
xenkey |
Saying 'illegal' highlights me =D |
| 22:08 |
paxcoder |
xenkey, because it's unreliable and prevents multiple players on the same ip |
| 22:08 |
xenkey |
Or 'key' |
| 22:08 |
kaeza |
paxcoder, you can be sure that (unless you reset your players DB), user "foo" will be the "same" user every time (again, not 100% reliable) |
| 22:08 |
TheWild |
sfan5: I noticed that right after I wrote |
| 22:08 |
sofar |
plus it'll false positive for players on a ipv6 tunnel, for instance |
| 22:09 |
paxcoder |
kaeza, i'm interested to know whether user foo is user bar or not |
| 22:09 |
xenkey |
He is not |
| 22:09 |
xenkey |
Foo != bar |
| 22:10 |
paxcoder |
-_- |
| 22:10 |
xenkey |
Foo's IP might be the same as bar's |
| 22:10 |
* paxcoder |
is getting frustrated |
| 22:10 |
kaeza |
paxcoder, the MT protocol only has limited information on the client; currently only IP, name, and version info |
| 22:10 |
xenkey |
That's all you can find out though |
| 22:10 |
xenkey |
^ |
| 22:11 |
kaeza |
it's basically like having a webserver and only having access to "User-Agent" and IP |
| 22:13 |
kaeza |
unless you can code a mod that can detect user's behavioral patterns or something :P |
| 22:14 |

Maybe a combo of creation timestamps for binaries |
| 22:17 |
TheWild |
could Minetest discover another itself already running? |
| 22:18 |
paxcoder |
TheWild, it could as well as other things do (like browsers which open tabs instead of new windows for example) |
| 22:19 |
paxcoder |
TheWild, but that doesn't solve the problem because I'm not after banning multiple accounts, but identifying a single build |
| 22:19 |
paxcoder |
So that only one of those gets initial stuff. |
| 22:26 |
Undertaker |
I speak english, the problem is with the server Megaf... this server has a policy with new players, they can't interact with the server, like me, so to play I need a permission of a admin, just the user Megaf_, but I'm trying to say him yesterday and nothing |
| 22:26 |
Undertaker |
today again and nothing |
| 22:27 |
TheWild |
paxcoder: maybe: give the stuff if no account was registered on this IP within 24 hours |
| 22:30 |

how about making special tools as "gifts", store the name of the owner in the metadata of the tool, and regularly (e.g. every minute or so) purge items that don't belong to the player? |
| 23:18 |
paxcoder |
reminds me of VanessaE's server where you get money every (new) day you join |
| 23:19 |
