Time Nick Message 00:02 xordspar0_ Is there a way to store a reference to an object as a string, then look up the actual object again later? 00:03 KikaRz has 'Builtin' any translation? 00:03 xordspar0 I want to store a reference to an object in the metadata of an item. 00:07 octacian garywhite: endev.xyz, port 4300. I'm not on much. It's mostly a on-and-off testing server. Also use it if I get bored and wanna build something. Aside from that, it's just testing my latest mods. I might go on in about 20 minutes though... 00:08 octacian garywhite: more importantly, my IRC network is irc.endev.xyz, port 6697, accept invalid SSL certs, channel #minetest. I'm there like 24/6 00:19 FallingBugs with all my dislike towards fantasy islands and weird mountains, but damn... they look so nice 00:23 octacian FallingBugs, what mod/mapgen creates the weird mountains and floating island? IK it's something paramat is working on, but where can I get it? xD 00:30 FallingBugs octacian: v7 00:33 FallingBugs octacian: https://i.imgur.com/jEESaBb.png 00:37 octacian ohk 00:38 KikaRz Good night everyone 00:39 xordspar0 The dev wiki page for LuaEntitySAO says that objects can be referenced with minetest.luaentities[objectID]. How do you find out the objectID? 00:46 red-001 try reading lua_api.txt section on this? 01:45 xordspar0 Huh, lua_api.txt is a good resource! I didn't see any reference to it on the website. Maybe that should be a recommendation for a place to start instead of / in addition to the dev wiki. 01:53 kaeza Is there a way to store a reference to an object as a string, then look up the actual object again later? 01:53 kaeza no 01:54 kaeza if you need it across restarts, no 01:57 kaeza and I doubt it's possible across restarts, or even if the object is unloaded and then reloaded 01:59 kaeza your best bet is to "serialize" the object in some way (e.g. in the same way you would use `get_staticdata` then re-create it 02:02 kaeza aaaaand forums are dead from this side, again :/ 09:20 crazyR_ am i right in thinking there are 238,328,000,000,000 total nodes in a minetest world (calulations based on 62000 * 62000 * 62000) 31000 in each direction.... 09:36 KikaRz how do I update Minetest from git? should I git clone then recompile it? 09:37 Calinou KikaRz: git pull; cmake .; make -j$(nproc); sudo make install 09:37 Calinou last step is optional, if you want to install system-wide 09:38 KikaRz Thank you Calinou *-* 09:39 KikaRz oh wait 09:39 KikaRz cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=0 ? 09:40 KikaRz *-DRUN_IN_PLACE=TRUE 09:55 KikaRz What's this about? http://i.imgur.com/HQ2cENh.png Pressing P makes this appear. 09:55 KikaRz *Pressing O 09:56 KikaRz **Actually P 15:32 MinetestBot 02[git] 04lhofhansl -> 03minetest/minetest: Conf.example: Document block_send_optimize_distance 13c793700 https://git.io/vXuLy (152016-11-08T15:22:42Z) 15:32 MinetestBot 02[git] 04lhofhansl -> 03minetest/minetest: Sky: Draw bottom of the sky box in 'cloudy fog color' 13739ef17 https://git.io/vXuLS (152016-11-08T15:20:01Z) 15:32 MinetestBot 02[git] 04lhofhansl -> 03minetest/minetest: Retrieve mapblocks from the server in a sphere, not a cube 13e7c62ed https://git.io/vXuL9 (152016-11-08T15:15:27Z) 15:32 MinetestBot 02[git] 04lhofhansl -> 03minetest/minetest: Occlusion culling: Fix 'end offset' distance, half this for centre point 132b21cac https://git.io/vXuLQ (152016-11-08T15:12:08Z) 22:08 kaeza o/ 22:08 fireglow hi kaeza 22:13 Out`Of`Control \o 23:25 twoelk it's oh so quite - shhhhh - shhhhh 23:26 twoelk oops *quiet 23:32 Out`Of`Control hi twoelk 23:32 swift110 lol 23:32 twoelk o/ 23:32 swift110 im here 23:32 garywhite o/ 23:32 swift110 how are you twoelk 23:33 twoelk finefine 23:35 FallingBugs anyone heard about everamzah? 23:35 swift110 no 23:35 swift110 good twoelk 23:35 twoelk wow, didn't know this was the original version of "It's Oh so quiet" -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmhvJpTELc 23:36 twoelk FallingBugs: something happened? 23:36 FallingBugs twoelk: i think he left minetest 23:37 twoelk oh, just the usual falling of the edge of the world 23:40 garywhite Hi PsychoVision 23:40 PsychoVision Hello Garywhite :) 23:41 PsychoVision How are you good sir 23:41 garywhite Doing good 23:41 PsychoVision Great :) 23:46 swift110 lol 23:46 swift110 talk then twoelk 23:51 * twoelk is listening to old Betty Hutton tunes and watching here bouncing around on stage 23:55 PsychoVision Betty Hutton, is Awesome :D 23:55 PsychoVision Love 30's and 40's Music 23:56 twoelk seems she was the first to sing the f* word on stage in 1939 or so in her version of old man moses 23:57 Optical_Long hellp 23:57 Optical_Long hello* 23:58 PsychoVision Hello Optical_Long, How are you 23:58 Optical_Long alright, thanks, how are you? 23:59 PsychoVision Well enough, days stretching on but work is finally over.
