Time Nick Message 00:04 lambda-11235 I can't seem to plant wheat seeds. Whenever I right click they are momentarily place before going back to my inventory. 00:07 kaeza octacian, the user-visible part (i.e. HTML) does not matter. The client uses JSON at http://server.host/list 00:08 octacian kaeza: thanks. 00:08 kaeza make that https, of course :P 00:09 octacian wait, so if I were to for example put the list on my own server, I couldn't just put it on servers.endev.xyz, I'd have to put it at server.endev.xyz/list? 00:09 kaeza yes, you put the JSON list there. the web frontend can be anywhere 00:11 kaeza octacian, there's also https://github.com/minetest/master-server 00:12 octacian_ thanks. 00:13 garywhite Can someone tell me how old 8a7dc83 is? 00:14 octacian_ garywhite: can't you look yourself? Look on GitHub. 00:14 garywhite idk where commits would be 00:14 octacian_ which repo? 00:14 mootpoint lambda-11235 what are you trying to plant them on? 00:15 garywhite minetest 00:15 garywhite Wait, found it 00:15 garywhite Have to click the # of commits at the top 00:15 octacian_ good 00:16 Fixer garywhite: 3 DEC 2016 i think 00:16 kaeza also https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/$commit 00:17 garywhite 2 December, so yup 00:17 kaeza or some git magic: https://xkcd.com/1597/ 00:17 mootpoint kaeka: you have discovered my new favorite comic 00:22 lambda-11235 mootpoint: Dirt next to water. 00:22 mootpoint have you tried using a hoe on the dirt? 00:23 lambda-11235 mootpoint: Not yet. I'll try that. 00:23 mootpoint hit the dirt with a hoe then wait for it to turn 'wet' then plant again let me know if that helped 00:25 lambda-11235 mootpoint: That worked. Thanks! 00:25 mootpoint your welcome glad i could help :) 00:40 octacian_ kaeza: wait, so /list is stored in an actual file, which is just saved when things change? 00:41 kaeza octacian_, in the default implementation, it seems `/list` just fetches `/list.json`, yes 00:42 octacian_ ohk. 00:42 kaeza you can implement it whatever way you want I guess (i.e. fetch from DB, print a static list of servers, etc) 00:42 octacian OK, I'll figure it out. 01:50 garywhite Does anyone know if it would be possible to remove someone's ability to have creative on a creative mode server? 01:51 octacian garywhite: there is a mod that does it, I think it's called creativeswitcher. It's not very good though. 01:52 garywhite ok 03:00 STHGOM is there a "creative" priv? i forget 03:02 est31 I think so 03:05 garywhite Yes 03:07 STHGOM ok 03:07 STHGOM so, does anyone else have this problem with the "wiki" mod? 03:07 STHGOM 2016-12-14 03:03:22: ERROR[Main]: bad argument #2 to '?'

03:30 redblade so many kids leave or get angry if you say a swear word 03:31 redblade in this case, i have the jukebox mod with christmas music including a funny punk rock song "merry stupid fucking christmas" 03:31 redblade and then there's my light-up whorehouse with vaporwave music 03:31 redblade but i've never heard of kids being so offended by swear words 03:32 redblade parents are supposed to be offended and get angry with the kids, aren't they? 03:32 redblade what has changed 03:32 nm0i__ Let's play a game. 03:32 nm0i__ "why do so many of these kids log on and..." 03:32 redblade and do any other server owners have problems with kids upset with swear words? 03:32 nm0i__ Yes 03:33 redblade then it isnt just me 03:33 redblade what is wrong with kids today? 03:33 redblade (i dont know if the person with regard to the christmas song was a kid but a lot of kids do get offended when someone swears) 03:34 nm0i__ Some of them upset people use "Hell". 03:34 redblade wow 03:34 redblade i was allowed to say that 03:34 nm0i__ say I few times made wold announcment that satanism is allowed. 03:34 nm0i__ Lost few regular kids. 03:34 ReadySetWait redblade how old are you? 03:34 redblade 32 03:34 ReadySetWait don't lie 03:34 redblade and i have a sick sense of humor 03:34 redblade and am bipolar 03:35 redblade all i ask is that people dont annoy each other, as in trolling or pissing people off 03:35 redblade but that has nothing to do with mentioning a punk rock song with a swear word in the name 03:36 redblade i asked my brother in law, he's a teacher and former principal, and he said that being bothered by swear words is indicative of problems in the home 03:36 redblade but it can't be so many people 03:37 redblade there is also a south park song on the christmas disc 03:37 redblade here is the song in question 03:37 redblade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yb2IF_sjE9w 03:37 redblade it's funny 03:40 nm0i__ Put "[21+] Erotic roleplay server" into server_name, that will cure your problems. 03:41 sofar I'd play on a server like that in a heartbeat 03:41 redblade wtf? 03:41 sofar just knowing there's no 5yr olds around? priceless 03:41 redblade i'm not going to be responsible for something like that 03:41 redblade nor am i interested 03:42 redblade look, i dont care if kids leave because they dont like bad language or sick humor 03:42 STHGOM as if putting [21+] would put off kids :P 03:43 redblade i just think it's strange 03:43 redblade but yes there are juvenile things like a light-up "FUCK" someone built 03:43 redblade and i mentioned my mesecons strip club 03:43 sofar well there are appropriate amounts of bad language 03:43 sofar and then there is too much 03:43 sofar everything is good in moderation 03:44 sofar yelling fuck once in a while helps 03:44 sofar yelling it every 5 minutes? not 03:44 redblade i dont care, as long as it's not "fuck you", teleporting to you, and dropping a travelnet while you're building 03:45 redblade in fact there was a user like that who i wound up having to ban all of sao paolo via iptables to get rid of him 03:45 sofar typical generation X (that's a joke) 03:46 redblade well i'm gen y but i'm one of the older gen y, born 1984 03:47 redblade i think gen y starts in 1981 03:47 nm0i__ You're so special you don't belong to any generation. 03:48 sofar he's redblade, period 03:48 redblade lol nm0i__ 03:48 sofar she? 03:48 redblade he 03:48 sofar maybe I offended them by using he/she 03:48 * sofar giggles 03:48 redblade absolutely not 03:48 sofar I hear some crazy stuff from kids coming out of college nowadays though 03:49 sofar "everyone is butthurt" 03:49 sofar anal sex must be a new hype or something, or they don't know about lube 03:49 redblade on my twitter page summary, i have "political correctness is terrorism" 03:49 sofar I prefer factual correctness over political correctness 03:50 sofar but hey, I'm a socialist 03:50 redblade if you want to know more about my politics check out http://twitter.com/thebleakfire 03:50 redblade https 03:50 redblade but regardless 03:50 est31 one of the things i dont like about the rust community is that they have this "code of conduct" bs 03:51 est31 it only allows people with feminist and sjw world views to join 03:51 sofar I refuse to set a CoC for my OSS projects 03:51 redblade i didnt like trump either, and viewed hillary as a lesser evil, but when she lost, i was upset for a few days, but i sucked it up right away 03:51 redblade i'm not one of the politically correct whiners 03:52 sofar https://plus.google.com/u/1/+AukeKok/posts/PJpYYnQtQWV?sfc=true 03:52 redblade and again i view political correctness as a form of terrorism 03:52 est31 one of the things i think its funny is now all the hillary supporters chant how the elections got hacked by the russians 03:52 sofar est31: there's a different side to that story as well 03:52 redblade since you're using fear and intimidation to get people to act according to liberalism (as one would radical islam) 03:52 nm0i__ I'm alien invader and I eat babies. 03:52 est31 but when trump said the elections were rigged it was called "conspiracy theory" 03:52 redblade you know what? 03:52 redblade the election made perfect sense. 03:52 sofar I'd use the word "influenced" and that's certainly correct 03:53 redblade hillary wins the popular vote due to the cities 03:53 sofar and the dem party was targeted for sure 03:53 sofar wait, where are trumps tax returns? 03:53 est31 trump didnt pay any taxes, he even admitted it 03:53 redblade trump's message appealed to the rural areas which want the outsourced jobs back 03:53 est31 or sort of 03:53 redblade that gets trump the electoral college 03:53 redblade and the presidency 03:54 redblade and so far recounts have proved it 03:54 est31 its just a sad story that the corrupt democrat establishment was so sure of winning, they elected hillary as nominee 03:54 sofar oh BTW, the democratic party cheated republicans by getting them to enact the electoral vote system in an attempt to gain more influence in the presidency 03:54 sofar that's a historical fact 03:54 redblade now i know trump is about to destroy freedom of the press 03:54 est31 if sanders were nominee, he'd have won 03:54 est31 redblade: sjws want to destroy freedom of the press as well 03:54 redblade and i dont agree with "america first" especialyl to his extremes 03:54 redblade i know 03:54 nm0i__ Ok, you all got boring again. 03:54 est31 everything that is "fake" or "offensive" in their eyes should be banned 03:55 redblade see what i said above as to why political correctness is terrorism 03:55 * nm0i__ returns to home planet 03:55 redblade sjws are terrorists 03:55 est31 sjws dont kill people, but I dont like how they enforce their world views upon everyone 03:55 redblade i was rand paul and then ted cruz, then hillary clinton 03:56 sofar eh, the FBI has for long determined that the largest source of terrorism in the USA is southern white males 03:56 redblade est31: terrorists dont always follow through on their threats 03:56 redblade it's the same thing, less the violence 03:56 est31 and how they ask for tolerance towards people who are different (like gay or trans people) on one hand and are totally intolerant on the other hand if you disagree with them 03:56 sofar and there's plenty of those more now 03:56 est31 I mean, yes you should tolerate gay people and trans people, thats what a free society is about 03:57 est31 but you should also tolerate different opinions 03:57 redblade well, back to what we were talking about, these minetest players would probably be considered gen z, not gen y 03:57 sofar gen -A 03:57 sofar alphabet overflow :) 03:58 redblade and thank you for telling me this is a problem with them 03:58 redblade because i've found it very strange 03:58 sofar I'd like to recall a story from my geology classes 03:58 sofar one of the first classes 03:59 redblade now seeing a light-up "FUCK" is funny for a few minutes. but if i was these kids age i would be laughing hysterically, not getting upset 03:59 sofar teacher comes out, starts talking about how the earth is 4.5bln years old 03:59 sofar and if you don't believe that, you should probably switch to another field of study 03:59 sofar and even then, in 1996, they had people who had left 03:59 sofar since they just could not accept that 03:59 redblade wow 04:00 est31 wow 04:00 redblade i dont think we ever even discussed that as a possibility 04:00 est31 sofar: you went to school in holland, right? 04:00 redblade how old were you? 04:00 sofar nobody left in my year 04:00 redblade i was 12 in 1996 04:00 sofar but it happened a few years before 04:00 sofar redblade: university, so early 20s 04:00 redblade oh you mean an elective 04:00 redblade oh ok 04:00 sofar est31: yes, Free University of Amsterdam 04:00 redblade i thought you were talking about kids leaving the room 04:01 redblade i thought literal creationism only had a real presence in the us? 04:01 sofar left the entire faculty, one person did 04:01 sofar you can't study geology if you fail to accept basic science 04:01 est31 sofar: so you say there were creationists in holland 20 years ago? wow, thought this problem would only affect the USA 04:01 sofar you can't be a doctor if you think vaccines cause autism 04:02 sofar est31: most likely, conservative religious 04:02 sofar est31: not necessarily creationism, which didn't really exist back then 04:02 sofar but, try and teach someone C14 dating methods 04:02 sofar C14 has a half life of 4900 years or so 04:03 sofar here we see an organic sample that has 1/16 of the normal C14 04:03 sofar conclusion: it's 20k years old 04:04 sofar you can't deny global warming and at the same time poor thousands of dollars into coal exploration by hiring top geologists to find coal seams 04:04 sofar but the Koch brothers do just that 04:04 sofar no wonder respectable scientists aren't working with them anymore 04:04 sofar etc. 04:04 sofar but hey, I'm just ranting to mostly open minded people 04:04 est31 I guess money corrupts everyone 04:05 sofar there's no redneck kids from alabama charter schools that get fed creationism here 04:05 sofar apres moi le deluge 04:05 redblade bbl 04:06 sofar they're playing minetest though, on the non-21+ erotic RP servers :D 05:06 redblade i'm going to bed, goodnight 05:48 daspork young earth creationism crap is also big in asia FWIW 05:52 daspork i cant even do South Korea justice.... you should just look it up. The earth is 6000 years old, and Jesus hung out in Korea and japan... 05:53 daspork I love living in asia but its like a dumping ground for various cults who have been exposed in the west 05:53 daspork for something on topic, the lua API got a lot better since i last used it 05:53 daspork having a bunch of fun with i 05:53 daspork t 06:30 MinetestBot 02[git] 04paramat -> 03minetest/minetest: Cavegen: Wider tunnels in mgflat, mgfractal, mgvalleys 13f840839 https://git.io/v11xh (152016-12-14T06:28:45Z) 06:30 IhrFussel Can someone explain to me what the \b character does inside a formspec? Like one mod has an image and after it \n\n\b\b\b\b then a number...now if i remove the \b's will the number go to the right? 09:23 tverrbjelke_ how can I find the "jump" feature of mobs in minetest... - look at line 41 https://github.com/Calinou/carbone_mobs/blob/master/api.lua and compare that to the wiki description of minetest.register_entity() http://dev.minetest.net/register_entity I don't see any "jump" entry... and it is incomplete. WHERE can I find the correct implementation spec of that function? 09:24 Calinou tverrbjelke_: "jump" is not a built-in register_entity property 09:25 tverrbjelke_ hm. But the mobs DO jump. 09:25 tverrbjelke_ And in the mod I cannot see "jump" implemented by themyselves. WHERE is that done? 09:25 tverrbjelke_ Calinou: I am surprised you are so fast responding! :-D 09:26 tverrbjelke_ actually I would like to dive a bit deeper in to the codebase... 09:26 Calinou look for velocity-setting functions, search for "velocity" 09:27 tverrbjelke_ Calinou: yesterday you said you test the mods by "running minetest". I then read that people are installing eclipse IDE and add lua plugin, and can debug / singlestep that way their code. Is that your workflow?= 09:27 tverrbjelke_ Ah. So jumping is done by "increase vel upward a bit? 09:28 Calinou I never do that, problem with IDEs is that they don't recognize Minetest workflow and API 09:28 Calinou tverrbjelke_: it's done by setting or increasing Y velocity, yes 09:28 tverrbjelke_ Ah. That is done inside mod? 09:29 tverrbjelke_ So mod adds "jump" field on registering, and then does the velocity stuff based on jump==true/false ? 09:30 tverrbjelke_ Calinou: So I understand you simply change mod-source and open world in minetest using that mod, and SEE what happens? 09:30 Calinou yes 09:30 Calinou game modding has pretty much always been "trial and error" 09:30 tverrbjelke_ minetest.log preferred over print? 09:30 Calinou tverrbjelke_: also yes, if jump is set to false it won't attempt jumping 09:30 Calinou print() is OK for debugging 09:31 tverrbjelke_ Where cvould I find teh implementation of the regiostering function (c++ side)? 09:31 Calinou register_entity? 09:31 tverrbjelke_ (I hope to better understand the stuff...) 09:31 tverrbjelke_ yes 09:31 Calinou just grep through the whole source code 09:32 Calinou btw, if you want faster grepping, https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep 09:32 tverrbjelke_ if even the wiki states "incomplete page" I would look into original... c++ code? 09:33 tverrbjelke_ (wow, some unix command variant of grep? thx) 09:34 tverrbjelke_ so I simply clone minetest stable and grep for register_entity? 09:34 Calinou it's a Rust implementation of a grep program, completely independent and cross-platform 09:34 Calinou yes 09:35 tverrbjelke_ to the eclipse /debugging thing... I *could* try that? Or is operpowered gun for that simple tasks? 09:36 tverrbjelke_ (I am new to lua and would like to confirm things... e.g. via unit-testing - but that seems even larger gun... wonder how you do coding on minetest 09:39 tverrbjelke_ ok so http://dev.minetest.net/LuaEntitySAO defines some methods on velocity. Now I countercheck the code of carbone_mobs 09:39 tverrbjelke_ - and THERE jumping is done, right? 09:44 JamesTait Good morning all! Happy Wednesday, and happy International Monkey Day! 🙈 🙉 🙊 09:46 tverrbjelke_ what is the difference betweeen self.xyz and self.objec.xyz? 09:47 tverrbjelke_ I mean comparing this lines 09:47 tverrbjelke_ self.object:getvelocity() 09:47 tverrbjelke_ if self.drawtype == "side" then 09:53 Calinou tverrbjelke_: Minetest coding is like most game modding, it doesn't use traditional tooling 09:53 Calinou unit tests are surely overkill for a mod 09:53 Calinou tverrbjelke_: jumping is done in Lua, yes 13:11 tverrbjelke_ set_velocity = function(self, v) 13:11 tverrbjelke_ -- todo: where is drawtype = "side" and its corrections coming from? 13:11 tverrbjelke_ local yaw = self.object:getyaw() 13:11 tverrbjelke_ if self.drawtype == "side" then 13:11 tverrbjelke_ yaw = yaw+(math.pi/2) 13:11 tverrbjelke_ end 13:14 tverrbjelke_ closest thing i foind was "If you want to use your mobs with mobf as well, rotate your model by 270 degrees. Else it'll move sideways." from https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=11434 13:14 minitest hi wsup 13:15 minitest anyone knows a good roleplay mob or something with adventure content? 13:58 IhrFussel Does the engine support .jpg textures? I have an image that I want to display on login, but it's 500 KB as JPG so I think it will be even larger when i convert it to PNG 14:01 sfan5 yes 14:01 IhrFussel sfan5, so JPG is supported just not recommended? 14:02 sfan5 you're better off using png for everything 14:02 sfan5 but jpg is supported in every irrlicht version 14:03 IhrFussel Well I agree when it's about actual textures cause those need to keep their details...my picture is just a 2D login image so it doesn't matter I think 14:05 IhrFussel sfan5, another question: Will the engine scale the images shown via image formspec automatically? 14:07 sfan5 dunno 14:08 IhrFussel I hope so cause you can't tell the engine to use px AFAIK 18:54 MinetestBot 02[git] 04est31 -> 03minetest/minetest: Fix build with gettext enabled 130614da3 https://git.io/v1D8z (152016-12-14T18:52:33Z) 19:53 whitephoenix reminder that testjam starts this saturday https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=15999&p=242126#p242126 21:22 Out`Of`Control hi 21:33 Fixer hi 22:02 Volkj hi, compiling minetest i noticed it complained about the missing of spatialindex, what does that do? 22:04 sfan5 speed some unimportant stuff up 22:07 Volkj nothing that can make a day/night difference so, installing the lib and recompiling - also, seems i get more stable fps using clang than gcc (30 fps vs 25~30), maybe related to my pc conf 22:09 sfan5 clang vs gcc performance is like directx vs opengl on windows 22:09 sfan5 sometimes it's better, sometimes it isn't 22:10 Volkj got it
