00:04 Brackston   Switch to Linux?
00:04 Brackston   Sorry, I could not help myself.
00:26 AntumDeluge Kaiser, what are you trying to do?
00:27 AntumDeluge If you're just trying to run the Minetest client, I would download the package labeled 'mingw'. I had problems with the visual studio built version.
00:35 Lone-Star   just a quick question, do you have to have a certain amount of posts before you can start a thread in the mod release section of the forums?
00:35 AntumDeluge You must post mods in WIP mods section. Then, you have to request it be moved to mod releases.
00:38 Lone-Star   ok, thanks
00:50 AntumDeluge There is the following line in a mod that I have been changing:
00:50 AntumDeluge pointed_thing.ref:punch(user, {full_punch_interval=1.0, damage_groups=def.damage_groups}, 'default:bronze_pick', nil)
00:50 AntumDeluge This is in the 'on_use' function of registering a tool.
00:51 AntumDeluge I don't understand why 'default:bronze_pick' is used.
00:51 AntumDeluge I tried changing it to 'nil', but then Minetest crashes.
00:51 AntumDeluge What the mod is attempting to do is, if the item in hand is pointing at an object. Then it will use the default behavior of picking the item up.
00:53 AntumDeluge I don't like that it needs to depend on 'default' just to be able to use the default functionality of pointing at an object & picking it up.
00:53 AntumDeluge What is the string for the hand?
00:53 AntumDeluge Is it just "hand"?
00:55 AntumDeluge https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/71b02d6/doc/lua_api.txt#L4132
00:56 AntumDeluge What is "pointed_thing"? Is it an ObjectRef?
00:57 AntumDeluge Okay, I think I found some info in the Wiki: http://dev.minetest.net/ObjectRef:punch
00:57 AntumDeluge ...except that "tool_capabilities" isn't documented. :-\
01:00 AntumDeluge Interesting. If I set "tool_capabilities" to "nil" it crashes. But if I set it to an empty string it works fine.
02:04 rdococ      Mreow.
02:48 AntumDeluge Does anyone know how I could fix this? https://github.com/AntumMT/mod-slingshot/blob/6d82281/api.lua#L56
02:49 AntumDeluge In the line "ob:punch(ob, 1.0, {damage_groups={fleshy=4}}, nil)" the puncher should be the player who is attacking. But, I'm not sure how to find which player is attacking from the "register_globalstep" function.
03:46 jas_        hello
03:46 AntumDeluge Hi jas_
03:48 redblade7   hi
03:49 jas_        there's minetest.register_on_punchplayer, dunno if that helps AntumDeluge https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/lua_api.txt#L2301
03:53 AntumDeluge I'll check it out jas_, but I don't think it's what I'm looking for.
03:53 jas_        ok.  there's also register_on_hpchange.
03:54 AntumDeluge You mean "register_on_player_hpchange"?
03:55 jas_        well now i'd have to check, but i think you may be right.
03:56 jas_        these names are hard for me to remember.
03:56 AntumDeluge That's what was in lua_api.txt
03:56 jas_        ok
03:57 jas_        well, i figure if you need to get the puncher, onpunch, or on_hpchange might work?  i'm just spitballin' tho
03:59 AntumDeluge I just realized that the previous developer actually already had a way to get the puncher. It gets stored on a local variable when "on_use" is called. So, problem solved.
03:59 jas_        nice!
04:04 AntumDeluge Excellent! Now defensive mobs attacked by my slingshot mod will know who to retaliate against. ^^
05:03 Natechip    wow

22:25 bigfoot547  Why are all these builds erroring?
22:25 bigfoot547  https://travis-ci.org/minetest/minetest/pull_requests
23:06 Calinou     bigfoot547: the builds of the master branch are failing: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commits/master
23:06 Calinou     so it's logical that the builds of pull requests also fail (most of the time)
23:06 Calinou     the last successful build on the master branch seems to be https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/b9ab51dd81bb15fb4d718ab0b3c6e06d0cab5141
23:07 bigfoot547  Okay
23:10 rubenwardy  it looks like something external changed
