Hey. Is it possible to include and use custom parameters in item definitions? Like can I do something such as minetest.registered_items["default:dirt"].my_parameter = 0, then read my_parameter from the item definition later? Or can I only set buildin parameters, like .groups and such? |
12:47 |
Taoki |
Same would be good to know about nodes. |
12:51 |
Krock |
You can set foobar = 1, works. |
12:52 |
Krock |
minetest.registered_nodes is just a collection of tables/node definitions |
12:53 |
Taoki |
Awesome, thanks |

Also, something else relevant to the mods I have planned for recently: Does having a lot of active entities automatically decrease server performance by a considerable amount? Even if they don't do anything? |
12:54 |
Taoki |
Like if I have 1000 entities with a 3D model, which simply stand there and do nothing, will that harm the server too much? |

Hmmm... does anyone know how to set the inventory of a Lua entity also? I can see that entities do have a get_inventory(), but I'm not sure how to configure it. |
13:17 |

I want to make mobs have a real inventory, like players. If that's not possible, I can of course use tables. |

Taoki: you could join VanessaE-Survival or VE-Creative and study the performance decrease around spawn. Both spawns have many signs, pipeworks, travelnet booths and technik and mesecon devices in a relative small area |
14:30 |
Taoki |
might look into it |
14:31 |
twoelk |
if you travel a little away from spawn you will notice there is some invisible border where performance gets better as long as you dont look towards spawn |
14:31 |
Taoki |
Currently having a weird issue with entities: I used obj:set_properties to set a custom flag on an object, but I can't seem to get that object in the entity's on_step function. It acts like it doesn't exist. |
14:31 |
Taoki |
Any thoughts as to why? |
14:33 |
twoelk |
on the other hand visit the just-test server and travel to the barren rocks outside of spawn city, build a little pillar and wait for the night. Many mobs will spawn and perform their hopping dance around you. It does get a little dificult once you get down and fight them but that may be a client related issue |
14:34 |
Taoki |
local obj = minetest.env:add_entity(pos, name) obj:set_properties({x = 1,}) Then in the entity's definition I try under on_step: print(self.x) as well as rint(self.object.x) |
14:37 |
twoelk |
uhm, is this similar to the sheep shearing activity? |
14:38 |
Taoki |
Somehow. I need to add a property to an entity after I add_entity it, then see that property from the entity's defined on_step function |
14:40 |
twoelk |
hehe sounds like wanting to provide mobs with hunger and such |
14:40 |
Taoki |
Something like that. But why isn't it working? |
14:40 |
Taoki |
Incredibly enough, none of these work: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=mgdykUgT |
14:40 |
twoelk |
bah ouch my wool is gone, need some grass bahbah |
14:41 |
Taoki |
How on Earth? Doesn't set_properties really set them or such? |
14:42 |
twoelk |
maybe something hidden in the signs code? the letters are layers of entities iirc |
14:43 |
Taoki |
Sorry, don't understand what that means |
14:45 |
twoelk |
the letters of signs are not textures as such or thy couldn't be changed letter by letter |
14:46 |
Taoki |
Ah, seems I got it: I had to do obj:get_luaentity().x = "!!##!!##" |
14:46 |
twoelk |
that's why signs clutter up spawns with entities. Sort of one for each letter |
14:47 |
Taoki |
Yeah, that's pretty bad. Now that textures can be changed per individual node, signs can hopefully be reworked to use materials |
14:47 |
Taoki |
Anyone got around to that actually? |

15:30 |

no suspension, without hard shutting down. |
15:30 |
Calinou |
I'd suggest suspending as soon as it works |
15:30 |
DusXMT |

15:30 |

there's a reason you suspend your phones and tablets instead of shutting them down* |
15:30 |
Calinou |
[note: may not apply to the OnePlus One] |
15:30 |

and expecting it to turn off. |
15:31 |
nolsen |
DusXMT: Good idea, pull the power cord on something that has a battery. |
15:31 |
DusXMT |
nolsen: or even better, plug your computer into a power strip with a switch. (or you can pull out the battery) |
15:31 |
nolsen |
doing so in attempt to shut it down make yourself an idiot. |
15:32 |
nolsen |
Or I can just hold the power button down. |
15:32 |
DusXMT |
That's the first step, of course. You don't want to be cold-halting a running system, unless it's DOS |
15:32 |
nolsen |
either way, both has a chance to corrupt windows. |
15:32 |

Not to sound mean, but you'd only give trouble onto your own self... |

Their fault for using Windows. |
15:34 |

All I need to is corrupt Windows, destroy their backups, and boom. |
15:34 |
nolsen |
Windows is gone. |
15:34 |

And make a fake story on how it got corrupted. |

Still, the only one in trouble would be you, and you'd be forced to reinstall it. |

Nice design, well advertised, with good reputation. I think that's the reason. I'm not an Apple supporter by no means, but I acknowledge this. |

Oh, you know that my dad doesn't like Linux but here's the catch... |

Before he got the iPhone, he had Android, which IS Linux-Based |

That's also your choice. But it's stupid in my opinion, since then, if you abandon your works, no one can revive them, and no one can improve them and/or learn from them, or adapt them |
16:24 |

Then I'll open-source it. |

proprietary software controls its users, the inverse should happen -- ie. users should be able to control software |

Unlike other companies like Migraine$oft, I would actually write software that'd be worth the price. |
16:27 |
Calinou |
I haven't bought any software in ~4.5 years |

16:28 |

My program will be windows only. |

* nolsen |
close source it now |
16:28 |

Because it would probably be only useful on Windows :3 |
16:30 |
nolsen |
I will just open-source it again if I abonden it. |
16:30 |
DusXMT |
And when we speak about software freedoms, we don't just mean these things theorethically, but practically. For example, look at skype. To run it, you have to have an x86 processor (or x86_64 with a system with multilib support) and be running pulseaudio. That means that people on other architectures, or those who do not want to use Pulseaudio, can't modify/adapy Skype for their needs... Which used to be |
16:31 |

a pain in my ass, before I abandoned it |

Hi. How do I get the texture of an item from knowing it's name please? I tried this, and it doesn't work: local textures = minetest.registered_items["default:dirt"].textures |
17:18 |
rubenwardy |
Calinou, isn't Tox that one that is fundamentally flawed? |
17:18 |
rubenwardy |
ie: security wise |
17:18 |
ElectronLibre |
It's something like minetest.registered_items[name].tiles[tile_number] |
17:19 |
rubenwardy |
nolsen, I think that is satire |
17:19 |
ElectronLibre |
If you want the inventory image then it's the same master table, and .inventory_image as the index. |
17:19 |
rubenwardy |
that opensource.com link |
17:20 |
rubenwardy |
if it isn't satire, then It's completely stupid |
17:20 |
rubenwardy |
1. is basically 'there is nothing you can do, you're helpless' |
17:21 |
Taoki |
ElectronLibre: I think I want the textures table. |
17:21 |
rubenwardy |
2. isn't a problem really, you can choose |
17:21 |
ElectronLibre |
Ok then use tiles. |
17:21 |
Taoki |
Pretty much, I have a Lua entity which I want to assume the appearance of any given item |
17:21 |
Taoki |
I assume I only have to use type "wielditem" |
17:22 |
Taoki |
But in the entity itself, I only know the item's name. |
17:22 |
ElectronLibre |
Wait, I've already seen such entities, I could give you an example of code where it is used. |
17:22 |
rubenwardy |
3. is just stupidity 4. is just "waaa! I have too much choice!". 5/6 isn't to do with open source, but rather community based development |

<rubenwardy> ie: security wise |
17:23 |
rubenwardy |
Those points are all terrible |
17:23 |

Normal, tools have inventory images, not tiles. |
17:23 |
Calinou |
no, it's fine security wise |
17:23 |
ElectronLibre |
The code above looks for both. |
17:23 |

it's just that decentralization has its inherent flaws, hard or impossible to fix... |

ElectronLibre: Is there a way to get the visual type of the item too (.visual doesn't seem to work)? Since I assume that "wielditem" won't make blocks appear like blocks... |
17:28 |
ElectronLibre |
drawtype I think. |
17:28 |
ElectronLibre |
Yes, drawtype is surely the field's name. |
17:30 |
Taoki |
ElectronLibre: Seems to be nil for tools, but "normal" for blocks |
17:34 |
ElectronLibre |
The drawtype? Yes, obviously. |
17:35 |

Check before if the item exists in the minetest.registered_nodes before using minetest.registered_items. These two categories have a few different fields. |

VanessaE, I'd just like to point out, your server topics both say 'For a description of how to protect an area yourself, see my Dreambuilder forum topic.' but it doesn't look like the dreambuilder topic actually describes how to use Areas at all. Might be confusing for new players... |

VanessaE |

yeah, it shouldn't be much of a problem, I just thought you'd like to know... :) |
