Does minetest have standard modpacks or a management system for them? I think that it would really increase its popularity if it had modpacks similar to minecraft's feed the beast that you could just install and play with friends 05:36 sofar there's "Subgames" that effectively do this 05:37 sofar some modpacks exist that come really close to that as well 05:37 sofar player1015: best place to look is the various forum sections 05:37 sofar https://forum.minetest.net/viewforum.php?f=38 05:38 sofar player1015: and yes, there is a *ton* of content out there, all ready to install and use 05:42 player1015 sofar: I see lots of interesting subgames on the forum. Are the subgame servers usually active with lots of players? 05:42 sofar they feel pretty busy at the moment 05:43 sofar sfan5: do we have stats like 'currently playing: xxx players' somewhere? 05:43 sofar sfan5: maybe convince minetestbot to query/show it 05:43 sofar MinetestBot: !playing 05:43 sofar MinetestBot: !players 05:44 sofar !playing 05:44 sofar !players 05:44 sofar ergh w/e 05:44 sofar player1015: http://i.imgur.com/vwkNdzn.png 05:45 sofar that's just one page with ~200 players? 05:46 sofar of course, it's the top servers 05:46 player1015 Nice. Are there any mods that implement something like Factions for minecraft? Land claiming for pvp servers that you can overclaim with enough power 05:47 sofar player1015: please note that "subgames" do not need special downloads if you're playing on a server that runs a subgame 05:47 player1015 Really? How does it work then? 05:47 sofar minetest downloads all the needed parts at first connect 05:47 sofar including 3d models, animations, sounds, textures 05:47 sofar most of the servers in the list are heavily modded already 05:48 sofar e.g. skyblock server is a completely different world with custom craft recipes 05:48 player1015 Is the downloaded code sandboxed? 05:48 sofar dreambuilder has thousands of nodes 05:48 sofar code isn't downloaded at all 05:48 sofar (*) 05:48 sofar in the future it may be, but it will be sandboxed heavily 05:49 sofar minetest currently does not have client side mods, all the mod code runs on the server only 05:51 player1015 So rendering a menu for a machine for example would be done by standard code that gets some type of markup from the server? 05:51 sofar correct (called a formspec in minetest lingo) 05:52 sofar mods all run entirely on the server only, and are written in lua 05:52 sofar mods provide extra assets as they need 05:53 sofar the server finds all the assets when it starts, and then sends them out to each client that connects 05:53 player1015 Does singleplayer also run a server on your machine? 05:58 sofar effectively 05:58 sofar otherwise code is just duplicated for no reason 05:58 sofar but in singleplayer mode, nobody else can connect 05:58 sofar it's the same efficiency, though 06:41 sfan5 sofar: theres a thing at the top of servers.minetest.net 06:43 sofar sfan5: ahh neat 08:25 JamesTait Good morning all, happy Thank You Thursday! 😃 ❤ 09:51 MinetestBot 02[git] 04red-001 -> 03minetest/minetest: Allow scripts to get the client protocol version in non-debug builds.… 131ef9eee https://git.io/v9s0f (152017-04-27T09:49:44Z) 09:51 MinetestBot 02[git] 04BluebirdGreycoat -> 03minetest/minetest: Fix incorrect formspec-tooltip doc, add detail in 'floodable' & 'on_f… 13d130e1f https://git.io/v9s0J (152017-04-27T09:49:07Z) 10:14 MinetestBot 02[git] 04nerzhul -> 03minetest/minetest: Don't permit to copy Scripting classes (Client,Server,Mainmenu) 13b82e5ec https://git.io/v9szJ (152017-04-27T09:52:44Z) 11:34 MinetestBot 02[git] 04desttinghim -> 03minetest/minetest: Search user path for sounds (#5657) 1304ba2d2 https://git.io/v9s6k (152017-04-27T11:33:59Z) 14:16 DS-minetest hi MinetestBot 14:16 MinetestBot Hello DS-minetest! 14:21 ThomasMonroe_ hi DS 14:22 DS-minetest hi Tre 14:23 Paul27 Hello. There's someone on the community that can host a server even for a short period of time? 14:24 ThomasMonroe_ Paul27 try minetesthosting/com 14:24 ThomasMonroe_ .com* 14:27 Paul27 I know but the free hosting service there is much limited. The point is that i would like to "launch" a server, but only in a test state. 14:28 Paul27 I mean, to see how it would develop 14:31 CalebDavis i am wondering is there a way to hide the " is connecting" messages in a server 14:32 DS-minetest hm, if an object A collides with another object B, both have the same velocity direction, A is in front of B, B i faster, what's the new velocity of B, the velocity of A or 0? 14:33 CalebDavis i think A and B would trade velocities 14:34 Paul27 Well, if A and B are two solids like stone or wood, and if B is enough fast, they'll stick togheter 14:34 DS-minetest (i mean objects in minetest) 14:34 Paul27 Ops 14:35 CalebDavis yea they should end up with a velocity that is the average of them both 14:59 MinetestBot 02[git] 04ShadowNinja -> 03minetest/minetest: Fix Travis builds 13c761717 https://git.io/v9GIe (152017-04-27T14:57:46Z) 15:08 CalebDavis is there a way to hide the " is connecting" messages in a server 15:08 red-002 player is connecting? 15:08 red-002 you mean ** Player joined right? 15:09 CalebDavis no the *** PLayer is connecting 15:10 CalebDavis it appears om mms and not much else cause so many people are trying to connect but not getting through 15:11 CalebDavis so it says that they are connection but doesnt say that they join 15:11 CalebDavis connecting* 15:56 Paul27 Hello. There's someone on the community that can host a server even for a short period of time? 15:59 red-002 define short period of time 15:59 red-002 minutes? hours? days? 15:59 Paul27 like a month? 16:00 red-002 well you can try can convince existing server hosts 16:00 red-002 you need a good argument through 16:00 Paul27 That's what i'm asking for? 16:01 Shara Maybe try explaining why you need it and what you'll do with it. 16:01 Shara Server owners get multiple requests for things like this practically every day. 16:02 red-002 why can't you host it yourself anyway? 16:03 red-002 you just need a pc and be willing to pay the power bill for leaving it running overnight 16:03 Paul27 Shara: I want to see how a low-modded server with simple name and rules would gain popularity 16:03 red-002 that's what I did before I got bored of hosting a server 16:03 Shara A simple server isn't really anything new. 16:04 Paul27 red-002: This can be dumb, but i'm afraid of.. hacker attacks 16:04 red-002 or if you don't mind investing a bit you can get a vps 16:04 Shara You can get a pretty cheap VPS for a server like that. 16:04 red-002 Paul27 don't worry about hackers too much 16:05 Paul27 The point is that i don't want to give "away" personal infos and/or money for a project that has a big chance of failure 16:06 Paul27 red-002: um why not? 16:06 red-002 you are unlikely to be attacked just for hosting a minetest server 16:06 Shara Paul27: Considering how cheap a VPS for a month is, the time I'd need to set you up would be worth more to me than you'd have to pay. 16:07 Shara If you are not willing to invest in your experiment, it might be difficult to find someone else to. 16:07 red-002 btw I think the people running http://minetest.tv/ are willing to host a few servers 16:08 rubenwardy there hasn't been any reported incidents of a server being hacked 16:08 CalebDavis you could even host on a 10 dolar rasberry pi 16:08 rubenwardy DDOS, yes, but no hacking 16:08 red-002 but few rules and mods is hardly a new idea 16:08 Shara red-002: minetest.tv are NOT willing to host for others. 16:09 Paul27 Shara: "the time I'd need to set you up would be worth more to me than you'd have to pay" Can you please rephrase? 16:09 Shara I am the only person other than the owner who has ever been allowed to have a server there. 16:09 red-002 the time you will have to invest in seting up a server is greater then the monetary cost 16:09 Shara Paul27: My time is worth more to me then the amount of money you would need to pay to do this yourself. 16:10 Shara And I don't see why I'd be willing to make that investment of my time, if you aren't willing to invest in your own idea. 16:10 Paul27 Well can't you just say "No, sorry"? 16:11 sofar he's explaining why everyone is saying "No, sorry" 16:11 Shara she* 16:11 Shara And hi sofar :) 16:11 sofar dem personies 16:11 sofar dis humanooyd 16:12 Shara :D 16:13 sofar You know, when you see IRC nicks around long enough you tend to make your own mind up about certain people being either male or female or "whatever" 16:14 sofar it's pretty darn hard to correct that perception after a while 16:14 sofar I want to say photos would help, but that'd be too risky :) 16:15 Shara Just a little :) 16:15 sofar some things can't be left unseen 16:18 rubenwardy I got the impression that Shara was female 16:19 rubenwardy something about the name :P 17:32 Fixer Shara is not female? 17:33 Shara At this rate, I'll be doubting it myself! 17:33 Fixer still playing debug minetest, 15 fps, want to puke soon 17:33 Fixer still no crash I want 17:44 twoelk Fixer: have you tested other particle emmiting mods yet to compare to the TNT blast issue? 17:45 Fixer twoelk: nope, I'm dealing with other stuff right now 17:45 twoelk :-) 17:47 twoelk cool, I'm sort of riding a bat on JT2! 17:47 twoelk oops, it went poof :-( 19:23 yusf[m] Hello! I'm trying to differ between mt_g farming and farming_redo in a third mod. How to do it? 19:24 yusf[m] ^ in code, that is :D 19:24 red-001 check for diffrences in api? 19:25 yusf[m] How? I also figured I'll look for the file corn.lua in farming and if present I know it's farming_redo. But I don't know how? 19:25 yusf[m] I'm new to modding and I only know minetest.get_modpath 19:26 red-001 what are you trying to do anyway? 19:27 red-001 https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/blob/master/game_api.txt 19:27 yusf[m] Make a third mod use the "right" farming mod. 19:28 yusf[m] It seems like there's the global called farming.mod = "redo" in farming_redo. I'll just check for that! :) 19:28 red-001 https://github.com/tenplus1/farming/blob/master/init.lua#L9 19:29 yusf[m] That is awesome, thanks guys 19:31 red-001 np 19:57 yusf[m] Oh, I meany "guy". Looked too fast and thought tenplus1 chimed in. 19:57 yusf[m] Thanks red-001 20:27 TommyTreasure i had a player ask me about the 'bookshelf with doors', but he doesn't know which mod it goes with. any ideas? 20:28 TommyTreasure nvm, i think i just found it 21:30 pandaro Is it normal that 'get_player_control()' does not work when a player is shown a formpec? 21:31 pandaro *hello at all 21:31 sfan5 yes 21:31 pandaro thanks 21:32 ThomasMonroe hi sfan5 22:00 red-001 well that's fun I'm being insulted by coconut in a pm 22:41 GreenDimond sfan5, why no? https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17459#p266019 22:42 GreenDimond Rui asked for posts to be deleted there... 22:42 GreenDimond Oh.
