Time Nick Message 00:04 DNK_ I don't want the executable, I want the minetest folder so I can access /minetest/bin/ so I can start editing the server files, that does not help me. 00:16 Fixer https://i.imgur.com/dNlQGZw.jpg \o 00:43 Sokomine fixer: yes, i've seen that bug in another context as well but am not sure as to how to fix it 00:52 Volkj DNK_: minetest shared files are on /usr/share/minetes 00:53 Volkj however it's better to get a separate config per-server in /home/user/.minetest 01:06 TheReaperKing Is there a way to write a loop in minetest 01:06 TheReaperKing I'm searching the wiki for syntax guides 01:07 Sokomine not in minetest as such. it's not a language. you can write loops in c (if you're changing the engine) or lua 01:07 TheReaperKing is there any kind of wait command? 01:08 Sokomine depends on the situation. waiting would not be helpful in most cases as it'd block execution of the rest. better tell us what you want to do 01:09 TheReaperKing basically I want it to fire spawning at a predefined time, so a spawner set at 30 "delay" delays 30s seconds from the server creation 01:09 TheReaperKing I did post it on the forums too 01:09 TheReaperKing https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=14979 01:09 Sokomine ah. there used to be a method called "abm" (active block modifier) for that. now it's probably lbm? just take a look at the api 01:09 TheReaperKing like 2 seconds ago haha but figured I'd ask in here too 01:09 TheReaperKing okay I will thanks! 01:10 Sokomine register_abm 01:10 Sokomine at least for nodes 01:10 TheReaperKing You just reminded me of something else to check too, thank you 01:11 Sokomine hmm. i could use an and(..) function for joining a list of strings right now...but i think we only have concat (or self-written functions) 01:12 TheReaperKing so I have an idea, the delay could set the "interval" and then the spawn is fired and then interval could be set to 0 directly after it 01:24 MinetestBot 02[git] 04yyt16384 -> 03minetest/minetest_game: Flowers: Fix misaligned waterlily texture 13e0bec50 https://git.io/vorFb (152016-06-21T02:21:00+01:00) 01:24 MinetestBot 02[git] 04sofar -> 03minetest/minetest_game: Doors: Clean up nodedef usage 133e9afe0 https://git.io/vorFN (152016-06-21T02:20:47+01:00) 01:50 Sokomine you could remove the node. anyway...there are mob spawners around somewhere where you can take a look :_) 01:57 DNK_ I got stuck between rocks without any pickaxe or wood, what do? 02:34 TheReaperKing you can do a loop, a for loop! 03:39 swift110-phone hey 03:50 sloanonlinux Hi 04:02 swift110-phone how are you sloanonlinux 04:03 sloanonlinux Fine, you? 04:07 Hijiri TheReaperKing: You should take a look at node timers 04:13 swift110-phone im g4eat 04:13 swift110-phone im great 04:18 swift110-phone what ya up to sloanonlinux 04:27 sloanonlinux I'm just working on math 04:31 swift110-phone ok cool 04:34 TheReaperKing Thanks Hijiri 04:34 TheReaperKing Looks like I actually might have it working with minetest.after 04:34 TheReaperKing I will check out node timers too 04:35 TheReaperKing Wow looks like they would have made life a lot easier 05:02 Hijiri If you stand on a moving entity, do you get carried along with it? 05:03 everamzah no, i don't believe you do 05:03 Hijiri okay, thanks 05:03 everamzah only if you're attached? 05:04 everamzah like on a horse with a saddle lol, when it works 05:04 everamzah or a cart 05:04 NeueMann How long does it take for a server to start looking like people actually play it? 05:04 VanessaE a couple of weeks if people recognize your name 05:05 everamzah depends on the server, how much ppl like it, how long they stay 05:05 everamzah if ppl stay for a while, it attracts more players 05:06 TheReaperKing why are some "end"s "end," 05:06 TheReaperKing what does the comma do? 05:06 everamzah because they're table elements 05:06 NeueMann Also, I can only have about three players at once because I have a single thread on my VPS. Are there some server processes I can kill? 05:06 VanessaE because they're part of a table 05:06 TheReaperKing like an array? 05:06 everamzah anything that's not minetestserver, i imagine 05:06 VanessaE you can embed a code segment into a table, for example. 05:06 everamzah yes, a table array 05:06 TheReaperKing Thanks so much 05:06 everamzah i guess everything in lua is a table? 05:07 TheReaperKing I've never been much of a coder but I've been learning so much tonight it feels amazing haha 05:07 TheReaperKing when coding stuff actually works it is such a great feeling haha 05:07 everamzah yes lua/minetest good platform for learning 05:07 TheReaperKing I'm trying to learn it fast so I can teach my students 05:08 TheReaperKing I'll start with the other areas first I think 05:08 everamzah do you read the PIL book? 05:08 TheReaperKing I don't think I have 05:08 Hijiri numbers aren't tables 05:08 everamzah i think everything in lua is a table 05:08 Hijiri that's not true 05:08 Hijiri you can't index a number 05:08 everamzah https://www.lua.org/pil/ 05:09 everamzah free online 1st edition: https://www.lua.org/pil/contents.html 05:09 TheReaperKing ha that's actually what I was looking at tonight for loop syntax 05:09 Hijiri do you want me to read each section to see if it says that everything is tables 05:09 Hijiri oh 05:09 Hijiri that wasn't at me 05:09 Hijiri sorry 05:09 TheReaperKing I'll have to make sure to bookmark it now for sure 05:09 everamzah u can't have a number without a var? the var is part of a global table? (i'm making this up) 05:10 Hijiri values and variables are distinct 05:10 Hijiri even if one has is assigned to another 05:10 everamzah how do u get a value without a variable? 05:10 Hijiri 1 + 1 05:10 everamzah how do u store it? 05:10 Hijiri why do I need to store it? 05:11 Hijiri I could do local x = 1 + 1 anyway 05:11 Hijiri and that wouldn't be part of any table 05:11 everamzah _G 05:11 Hijiri _G is for global variables 05:11 everamzah oh 05:11 Hijiri And it would not matter anyway 05:11 Hijiri being a value in a table is not the same thing as being the table 05:12 Hijiri Needing tables to use Lua is not the same as everything being a table 05:12 everamzah interesting 05:12 Hijiri this is like saying everything is a function in a functional language 05:13 everamzah in lisp everything is a list? 05:14 Hijiri primitive integers are not a list 05:14 Hijiri s/list/s-exp 05:15 everamzah i dunno me 05:15 everamzah lua/minetest is pretty fun anyway 06:14 swift110-phone hm. 06:16 burli good morning 06:47 everamzah greetings 07:23 Qwertie Does anyone know where I can get the mods required to run a sky block server? 07:29 everamzah Qwertie: never done it, is it a subgame? if so it would come with all. if it's a mod, it should have a depends.txt listing which mods it needs 07:34 Qwertie everamzah: Yeah its like subgame, I have seen it on a server before. I can find a mod that seems to work for single player but I cant tell if it would work with a server 07:37 everamzah Qwertie: i see skyblock modpack from cornernote, with recent commits... https://github.com/cornernote/minetest-skyblock 07:37 everamzah skyblock_levels mod depends.txt has standard stuff, except for protector - u need to grab that 07:37 everamzah and it has an opt-depend on unified_inventory 07:37 everamzah otherwise whatever server mods you feel you need 07:37 everamzah and i think that should be it 07:57 NeueMann Just got broadband internet. I'm running the WAFE server. It's dauntingly slow because my VPS only allows one thread. I have an old acer aspire one in the closet with no hard drive. Would flash storage work for the server? I have a couple of those. 08:53 Fritigern NeueMann: I don't see why that wouldn't work for a server 09:04 JamesTait Good morning all! Happy Tuesday, and happy Go Skateboarding Day! 😃 09:38 Derr https://i.sli.mg/bO6g8a.png bulbasuar is the last pokemon I'm going to add now I'm going to focus on code 09:42 Derr I know how to bone but I'm not sure what kind of animations these guys should have 09:56 BubblezRaging I need a admin for storms survival server i am having greifers 09:58 BubblezRaging stormchaser3000 i need help 09:59 BubblezRaging and there is a guy names Oscar cussing 12:57 swift110-phone hey 13:51 LNJ2GO How can I set the admin of a world? (/admin) 13:51 NeueMann minetest.conf setting "name" 13:52 LNJ2GO so name = LNJ 13:53 LNJ2GO thanks 15:54 Calinou http://www.pcgamer.com/were-running-a-quake-server-all-weekcome-play-with-us/ 15:54 Calinou KaadmY: ^ 16:52 Guest123 Hello 16:59 Builder1234 is this irc operational? 17:00 Volkj people will answer, given time 17:03 Krock but he doesn't know that fact 17:04 asl97 craft prediction is done on the server side? 17:04 Krock only server knows the recipes, so yes. 17:16 H-H-H you would have thought that builder1234 would try a different irc channel lol instead of the same one for days on end 18:29 Devices I have a problem with a server, it doesn't seem to listen on the port 18:29 Devices when I nmap my server IP at port 30000 it says closed 18:31 Glorfindel Where are you nmap'ing from? 18:32 Devices the server itself. if I do it from my own pc it just says 'filtered' like on all closed ports 18:32 sofar Devices: did you do an UDP or TCP scan? 18:32 Devices oh good question, I just used the default setting 18:32 sofar there are also better ways to see if minetest is listening on a port, or not 18:32 sofar lsof -n | grep LISTEN 18:33 Devices that gives no results 18:33 sofar or `netstat -lpn` 18:33 sofar on the machine itself 18:33 Devices yeah 18:34 Devices the second command seems to imply it listens on 30000 18:34 Devices udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:30000 0.0.0.0:* - 18:34 sofar on UDP, yes 18:34 sofar that's where it listens by default 18:34 Glorfindel Couldn't you just fire up another minetest client and test? 18:35 Devices well I get a server connection timeout when I try to connect 18:35 Devices which is why I'm trying this shit 18:35 sofar try running a client from the same machine as the server? 18:35 Devices is there a command line client for minetest? 18:35 sofar nope 18:36 sofar headless server? 18:36 Devices then it'll be difficult, it doesn't run X 18:36 Devices yeah 18:36 asl97 sofar: there is that random input client 18:36 Devices debian jessie 18:36 sofar asl97: sure, but that's somewhat over complex :) 18:36 sofar Devices: firewall? port forwarding? actual IP address? 18:37 * sofar afk 18:37 Devices tried actual IP address and digitalocean should have all ports open by default 18:37 Devices my website required no firewall/forwardign and neither did ssh socks5 proxy 18:38 Glorfindel Would DO have special rules for http/https ports? 18:40 Devices maybe 18:41 sfan5 if you really want to test you should do an UDP scan 18:41 sfan5 because minetest does not use tcp for game connections 18:41 sfan5 also take a look at your iptables to see whether anything is being filtered 18:42 sfan5 also you should probably run nmap on your pc for checking purposes 18:43 Devices the UDP scan says open/filtered 18:44 sfan5 well then it should work 18:45 Devices yeah it should, but it doesn't sadly 18:45 Devices let me check if I even have iptables installed 18:47 Devices nothing in the log files about blocking/dropping packages 18:48 Devices and I just tried a socks5 proxy from my server on a random port and that one works fine 18:50 asl97 Devices: one of the bot can check if it is able to access your server if you tell it the ip/domain using the up command 18:50 Devices so /msg bot up domain? 18:53 asl97 !up 31.14.135.5 30001 18:53 MinetestBot 31.14.135.5:30001 is up (39ms) 18:53 asl97 like that^ 18:54 Devices ah 18:54 Devices !up izumi.tv 30000 18:54 MinetestBot izumi.tv:30000 seems to be down 18:54 KaadmY !server pixture 18:54 MinetestBot KaadmY: Pixture game server | pixture.quelcom.xyz | Clients: 3/10, 3/5 | Version: 0.4.14 / pixture | Ping: 22ms 18:54 asl97 (note: ip address selected 'randomly' from the server list) 18:54 Devices what could be the problem? 18:54 Devices minetest-server is running 18:55 asl97 ask your host? 18:56 Devices I don't think it's on their part, I can connect to my other services 18:56 asl97 does those other service use udp? 18:57 asl97 the host could be filtering udp traffic 18:58 Devices hm they are all tcp yeah 18:58 Devices I'll google around 18:59 sfan5 Devices: iptables is installed by default and dropped packets are usually not logged unless specially configured 19:00 air is it not possible to copy and paste in the change password fields? 19:00 sfan5 depends on your os 19:01 sfan5 don't exec copy-paste to work on linux at all 19:01 sfan5 expect* 19:01 air why? 19:01 sfan5 irrlicht problems 19:07 Devices made a support ticket on my host 19:07 Devices friend of mine said they might indeed block UDP 19:11 sfan5 a major cloud hoster blocking all UDP traffic seems unlikely to me 19:11 sfan5 but let's see what they say 19:12 Devices at least I'd know it's not that 19:15 air sfan5: thanks, found a patch by est31 to fix irrlicht 20:12 Devices DO says UDP is not blocked 20:12 Devices what else could it be? 20:13 asl97 Devices: minetest not listening to requests from anyway? 20:14 Devices the bot says it's down as well, so yeah probably 20:14 Devices can't test on the server itself, it's headless 20:15 asl97 did you put anything in `bind_address =`? 20:15 Devices nope, it binds to 0.0.0.0 20:16 Devices I also tried 127.0.0.1, but doesn't work either 20:16 asl97 what about ipv6_server = false? 20:16 Devices it's set to false yeah 20:16 asl97 iirc, 127.0.0.1 would make it listen to request from itself only 20:16 Devices yeah I found online that 0.0.0.0 is normal 20:17 asl97 maybe firewall 20:20 Devices nothing in my firewall seems to block it 20:29 asl97 the server is running? 20:29 Devices yeah, talking to you from it now 20:29 Devices but it did appear to be a firewall issue 20:29 Devices thanks for the help m8 20:29 asl97 i mean the minetest server 20:29 asl97 that is pretty much the only thing i can think of. 20:29 Devices fixed it with "sudo iptables -A INPUT -p UDP --dport 30000 -j ACCEPT" 20:30 swift110 minetest is nice 20:30 Devices which is weird since the firewall should have allowed all protocols 20:48 sloanonlinux_ Where's pilzadam? 20:52 * sloanonlinux_ tripleboops OldCoder 21:21 Fixer somewhere in pilzland 21:21 Fixer afk 23:37 heman_ hey, can anyone provide a quick answer 23:37 asl97 heman_: it depend on the question 23:37 heman_ I realize the answer will most likely be a no but still worth an ask 23:38 heman_ I'm helping at a children's summer club, and we are putting together a "minecraft" event, as our state is hlding a competition to replicate the capitol. 23:39 heman_ Are Minetest saves compatitable with Minetest and vise versa? 23:39 heman_ *Minecraft and vise versa 23:39 Volkj minetest is a different game from minecraft 23:39 heman_ I realize that. 23:39 Volkj however i don't know if there's a map database converter 23:40 heman_ I have a funny feeling they won't work together, but our director wants to use MInetest. Which looks fine, but won't meet the standards required. 23:40 asl97 heman_: the saves aren't compatible, there are converter for maps but there are plenty of nodes not available in minetest 23:41 Hirato there are mods, maybe just grab VanessaE's dreamworld thing 23:41 Volkj https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?id=6007 23:42 heman_ Nice. But that converts Minecraft to Minetest. 23:42 heman_ Is their a tool to convert the other way? 23:43 asl97 heman_: you should ask the minecraft community 23:43 heman_ I'll see about that. Thanks for the help! 23:43 asl97 i highly doubt there is much people converting minetest map into minecraft map 23:44 asl97 in a minetest community 23:44 heman_ Appreciate the help either way. 23:44 heman_ Thanks! 23:44 Volkj but even in minecraft communities i doubt someone considers minetest 23:44 asl97 ^ 23:45 heman_ OK. 23:45 Volkj seems there's a #minecraft channel 23:46 Hirato not to mention, minecraft has a much smaller worldspace 23:46 Hirato particularly around the vertica 23:46 asl97 Hirato: only around the vertical 23:48 Mr_Narfh anyone know the link for 3d amor od? 23:48 KaadmY that's odd 23:48 KaadmY Hirato: horizontal is far, far larger than MT's 23:49 asl97 Mr_Narfh: you can always do a quick search on github https://github.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=3d+armor+minetest 23:49 asl97 there are two repo 23:49 Mr_Narfh ok thanks dude
