00:04 ssieb          greeter: on Fedora, I use "systemctl start minetest@<gamename>" where there are files called /etc/minetest/<gamename>.conf and /etc/sysconfig/minetest/<gamename>.conf
00:13 Fixer          systemd, simple, easy
00:13 * Fixer        runs
00:14 swift110       lol
00:26 greeter        i tried systemd but i couldn't get it to work. my way seems to work alright though. but now i have another question
00:26 greeter        is there any way for me to tell if my server is listed in the public servers or not (makes no difference to me if it is or isn't, i'm just curious)
00:27 fireglow       greeter: check on http://servers.minetest.net/
00:27 greeter        perfect, thanks
00:28 greeter        not listed, good to know :-)
00:28 kaadmy         or just do "!server <ip or title keywords>" in this channel
00:28 kaadmy         !server pixture.quelcom.xyz
00:28 MinetestBot    kaadmy: No results
00:28 kaadmy         huh
00:28 kaadmy         !server pixture
00:28 MinetestBot    kaadmy: pixture | pixture.quelcom.xyz | Clients: 0/16, 0/1 | Version: 0.4.13-dev / pixture | Ping: 11ms
00:29 greeter        !server 107.191.110.112
00:29 MinetestBot    greeter: No results
00:29 greeter        pretty conclusive :-)
00:29 kaadmy         !server pixture.quelcom.xyz:30000
00:29 MinetestBot    kaadmy: No results
00:29 kaadmy         should work with ip...
00:30 greeter        maybe i should check with ipv6 too just to be safe
00:32 rubenwardy     I use a simple bash script
00:32 rubenwardy     easy, painless
00:33 swift110       hey rubenwardy
00:33 rubenwardy     also try:
00:33 rubenwardy     Hi swift110
00:33 rubenwardy     !up minetest.rubenwardy.com
00:33 MinetestBot    minetest.rubenwardy.com:30000 is up (1ms)
00:35 swift110       how are you rubq
00:40 greeter        hmm
00:40 greeter        !up 107.191.110.112
00:40 MinetestBot    107.191.110.112:30000 is up (177ms)
00:40 greeter        cool. though that seems to be a rather steep lag
00:41 rf_            how to in fact throw out or destroy things from inventory? (in not-creatinve mode)?
00:41 rf_            they are instantly picked up again
00:42 greeter        /pulverize works for me
00:42 greeter        make sure the item you want destroyed is the one selected in inventory
00:44 sofar          good news: I've found a way to view all the open issues and PR's inside minetest-mods all at once
00:44 sofar          so there's a great way to monitor outstanding issues and make sure PR's and bugs don't go unattended for long
00:45 Hijiri         sofar: That's neat
00:45 Hijiri         Also I'll have to go in a little
00:47 sofar          greeter: also, try throwing away horizontally, not looking downwards, or even slightly up
00:48 sofar          if you throw away items looking down, they land too close to your feet :)
00:48 greeter        indeed. i forget how to throw away items though :-S lol
00:48 Hijiri         sometimes I walk backwards while throwing away
00:48 Hijiri         just to be safe
00:48 Hijiri         well, when I play with the item pickup mod thing
00:48 Fixer          ._.
00:51 greeter        ok i gotta pay closer attention to which channel i'm reading :-S this one has a name similar to another one, but it's a completely different subject lol
01:18 edj            There's a shout out to Minetest here  :)  https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10974036
01:28 greeter        hmm, seems /sethome didn't get included in my minetest
01:35 edj            Does anyone here play Voxelands?
01:38 Wayward_One    I do
01:39 edj            Wayward_One: How do you like it?
01:40 Wayward_One    Enough that I ran a server for it for a while ;)
01:40 edj            Ah hmmm  :)
04:11 swift110-phone Im playing minetest right now
08:09 greeter        i think i found a mistake in the wiki at http://wiki.minetest.net/Subgames/Lord_of_the_Test/Silver_Ingot the description says "Silver Ingots are smelted in a furnace from Iron Lumps."
09:44 JamesTait      Good morning all!  Happy Wednesday, and happy Chocolate Cake Day! 🙌 🎂
10:35 everamzah      greeter: i see nothing wrong with that statement, note however that lord of the test is a sub-game separate from minetest and minetest_game
10:36 everamzah      oh, i see it now, "silver" ingots.  heh
10:45 everamzah      http://i.imgur.com/LISzRNL.jpg
12:53 Calinou        sofar, merged your pull requests, thanks for creating them
13:14 rf_            est31's password manager wors nicelly. why not merge it into minetest?
13:14 rf_            I guess it could use a dialog to also SAVE the passwords (and create the config file)
13:15 rf_            from .lua of the GUI of main menu, can I create and write into files?  (some privilages etc)?
13:26 giho           Is there any "protector vs areas" thread somwhere.
13:40 everamzah      not that i'm aware of, giho, but i've seen them used together on servers before.  and haven't myself had any problems combining them, yet.
13:40 everamzah      or using them at the same time, rather
13:41 everamzah      protectors require crafting materials and have a limited range.  areas mod allows priv-based protection and increased region sizes
13:55 rf_            how to see list of players on server I'm in?
13:55 fireglow       rf_: /status
13:56 everamzah      rf hocus doom ?!?
13:56 rf_            ?
13:56 everamzah      nevermind :D
13:56 everamzah      https://www.doomworld.com/vb/wads-mods/68477-hocusdoom-revival/
13:56 everamzah      same author name heh
14:00 red-001        mod ideas?
14:04 everamzah      red-001: are you asking for mod ideas?  because a good craft guide distributed by itself sure would be nice.  i took xdecor's, cuz that's the best one i've found if not using unified inventory.
14:19 monwarez       I have a question, how configure minetest to only use one port to connect to server like 30000? For now, it connect to a random port in a large range. It's look like the ftp protocol.
14:19 monwarez       I mean for the out port , not the destination port
14:22 everamzah      use --port argument to minetest, or set port in minetest.conf or settings tab
14:22 everamzah      it's on the server tab, too
14:26 monwarez_      when I try to connect I have in /var/log/security
14:27 monwarez_      Deny UDP 192.168.0.8:12065 188.166.65.98:30000
14:28 nrzkt          mongodb is really a pure shit. I'm loosing so many time at work because of it...
14:35 sfan5          nrzkt: but mongo db is web scale
14:35 sfan5          i don't want to install another db server on my vps anyway
14:35 sfan5          i already have mariadb because of ilbot
14:36 sfan5          i would prefer sqlite
14:36 sfan5          but i don't know perl and can't be bothered to hack an sqlite backend up
14:36 sfan5          TheBonsai: use SASL, we can see your host even though you have a cloak
14:37 fireglow       red-001: mod idea: rail switches
14:38 nrzkt          sfan5, web scale and sysadmin shit and takes a lot of diskspace for nothing :(
14:38 nrzkt          perl is dead
14:38 sfan5          it might be
14:38 sfan5          but i can't just switch to something else
14:38 sfan5          ilbot works fine too
14:56 monwarez       It appears that was a misconfiguration in my firewall
15:50 Fixer          .
15:57 nrzkt          sfan5, i understand. I'm raging on mongodb on which i'm injecting 1GB of DATA and the whole cluster and hosts are stucked because this technology is just stupid...
16:54 gagiD          hey :)

19:14 Tomthetom_     Hey I was wondering something
19:14 Tomthetom_     Is it neccesary to download all the mods when connecting to a server
19:15 LazyJ          Tomthetom_, no. The Minetest server provides the mods to the client.
19:15 Tomthetom_     Alright Cool thanks
19:15 LazyJ          yw ;)
19:16 Tomthetom_     Also, does minetest use the same skin format as minecraft ?
19:16 rubenwardy     IT uses the old format currently
19:16 rubenwardy     not 1.8 skins
19:16 rubenwardy     You can get a mod to make it use 1.8 skins
19:16 Tomthetom_     Great
19:17 rubenwardy     Although it may be part of a subgame somewhere.
19:17 LazyJ          What is different with the MC 1.8 skins and how/what to adapt/change?
19:17 rubenwardy     BFD has it
19:17 rubenwardy     !mod big freaking dif

19:17 MinetestBot    rubenwardy: Big Freaking Dig by Jordach - https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=9036
19:17 Tomthetom_     Underlinux, where is the skin directory ?
19:17 Tomthetom_     *Under linux
19:18 LazyJ          The server controls the skins.
19:18 rubenwardy     Without a mod, you can only have one skin
19:18 rubenwardy     and the server controls the skins
19:18 rubenwardy     the server has to allow you to customise your skine - it's up to the owner
19:18 LazyJ          You can change your skin in your client but when you connect to the server, your avatar will have the default skin.
19:18 Tomthetom_     Oh I see
19:19 Tomthetom_     Hmm
19:49 swift110       hello guys
19:55 kaadmy         hi
20:11 swift110       how are you kaadmy
20:12 kaadmy         ok  :)
20:38 swift110       good what are you up too kaadmy
21:40 greeter        hmm, i think there's something wrong with my server. it isn't letting me craft gunpowder
21:47 rf_            hmm was there a mod to make a forcefield that lets me claim terrain of not too big radius (no one can enter, or no one can grief it)
21:47 rf_            best one where there is some way (but not easy) to destroy the field
22:12 greeter        ah, i see now it's a mod
22:26 Fritigern      rf_: Look here http://krock-works.16mb.com/MTstuff/modSearch.php you may find what you are looking for
22:31 H-H-H          the forcefield is in technics but from what you said i would maybe suggest areas and markers mods
22:32 Fritigern      I was thinking the Landrush mod
22:33 Fritigern      Landrush = place certain node, then 16x16 area will be yours. Kinda like areas, but IIRC an earlier attempt at protecting land
22:34 H-H-H          yes i saw that while trawling the forums the other day although ive never tried it :)
22:35 rubenwardy     Also:
22:35 rubenwardy     !mod forcefield

23:26 greeter        hmm, i'm getting the feeling that by making my server public, i'm gonna get a lot more traffic than i expected lol
23:29 sofar          if you make a well-balanced and enjoyable server, yes
23:33 rf_            hmm how to remove the bones block?
23:33 greeter        hmm, a private server might be the way to go then, but for now, i got bigger problems. like why does the server keep crashing? lol
23:38 kaeza          if you go the public way, please install a name filter (like no_guests), require passwords, and make it interact-by-request
23:38 kaeza          it should weed out 90% of unwanted players
23:38 sofar          that's a good tip
23:38 fireglow       kaeza: what do you think is a good way to handle interact? "request" as in admin action required?
23:39 greeter        hmm, i think i'll go the private route then
23:39 rf_            kaeza: names filter?
23:39 greeter        may as well wait until the next server restart. seems to happen every 10 minutes for some reason
23:40 kaeza          rf_, disallow certain names, like the dreaded "GuestXXXX" accounts
23:40 kaeza          also disallows all-numeric names, and other "spammy" stuff
23:41 kaeza          if user can't come up with a proper username, maybe you don't want them in your server
23:41 kaeza          oh and also, xban2 ;)
23:42 greeter        xban2?
23:42 kaeza          !mod xban2

23:42 rf_            kaeza: would you like to play on our servers that we work on?
23:43 rf_            it allows for now connections over ipv6 from cjdns - you install a program that creates encrypted network virtual card and gives you constant IP address. also works in meshnet
23:43 kaeza          does it allow connection via sneakernet?
23:44 kaeza          <_<
23:45 kaeza          rf_, I don't play too much online, due to (very) limited data cap
23:45 kaeza          2GB sux
23:45 fireglow       :o
23:45 rf_            kaeza: what city are you in, maybe you could meshnet and get a free connection
23:45 rf_            well, it's mostly Germany... and some cities in USA.. Seatle
23:45 rf_            and in Poland Cracow and maybe more later
23:45 kaeza          rf_, South America
23:46 rf_            if things go well, then people in 2 km radius can play on this server even without internet :)
23:46 Ronsor         yeah
23:46 Ronsor         i'd like a meshnet
23:46 Ronsor         but for my area
23:48 greeter        hmm
23:48 rf_            what cities are you in?
23:49 Ronsor         atlanta for me
23:49 rf_            well either way you can start easily
23:49 Ronsor         nice populated area
23:49 Ronsor         i even have a router access point
23:49 Ronsor         just noone to join
23:49 rf_            if you are on linux then simply download and build and run cjdns
23:49 Ronsor         but i tunnel minetest, etc via it
23:49 Ronsor         i'm using windows atm :(
23:49 Ronsor         i need to get the cjdns windows build
23:49 rf_            Ronsor: at first connect to other cjdns nodes just over regular Internet connection
23:49 Ronsor         i've used cjdns before hehe
23:49 rf_            Ronsor: friends fixed cjdns build on windows, using cygwin
23:50 Ronsor         nice
23:50 rf_            other friend works on cjdns build in MSVC but it's not ready
23:50 rf_            also, they refreshed the windows installer
23:50 rf_            Ronsor: I will poke you in few days when this is ready to test :)
23:50 greeter        of course, now the server won't crash... i swear it waits for me to stop watching then it causes trouble lol
23:51 rf_            Ronsor: our server looks like: https://h.forum.meshnet.pl/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=87
23:51 rf_            Ronsor: oh, drop the h. from URL ofc
23:51 Ronsor         yeah
23:57 kaeza          fireglow, on VE's servers, a word is chosen daily and put in a sign. the user is required to read the server rules and type the word in chat to get interact
23:58 fireglow       hmm yes, that's noce.
23:59 fireglow       nice*
23:59 fireglow       Is that mod public?
23:59 kaeza          this particular implementation uses signs_lib and https://github.com/ChaosWormz/mt_keyword_interact
23:59 kaeza          signs_lib is at https://github.com/VanessaE/signs_lib
