02:06 Muyfret so if i wanted to make a game using minetest as a base, other than handing over engine improvements (likely i won't have many to offer), is the game code itself something i need to open source
02:06 w00t-Noob eliza: i won't be able to sleep now
02:12 helpless joined #minetest
02:13 helpless Hello, can somebody please help me with installing mods on ubuntu? When i put them in the mods folder they don't install, they just sit there
02:14 jas_ did you expect them to bounce and hop around?
02:14 Muyfret go to your config and do a search for mods or client
02:14 jas_ which mods directory did you put them in?
02:14 helpless I tried all of the mods folders i could find
02:14 jas_ because if you installed system-wide (ubuntu package for example) then it must be ~/.minetest/mods
02:15 jas_ for your user, or if you want them to be available for all system users, then /usr/share/minetest/mods, but i don't think i've ever tried that
02:15 jas_ go into mods folder and type `pwd'
02:15 helpless I'm teh only user
02:16 jas_ if you look in world.mt, you'll see a list of available mods that minetest found for your world
02:16 jas_ and if the one you want says "false" just change it to "true"
02:16 w00t-Noob even the realname says it's a bot
02:16 helpless Okay, also i'm having trouble reinstalling minetest. The installer just sits and maybe loads
02:17 jas_ w00t-Noob: no way
02:17 w00t-Noob mama, ooh (any way down
02:17 jas_ i don't show these things
02:17 jas_ nor join/parts
02:17 helpless Thats the other thing, i couldn't locate the worlds folder
02:17 w00t-Noob all the concepts you need, the secret, but for something bad

02:31 lumberJ nice tracks jas_
02:31 w00t-Noob capa`: very nice reply, i'm always impressed when you take the time to seem important
02:32 lumberJ helpless did you get minetest installed? also sometimes those folders (worlds, games) don't appear until you use them or create them
02:33 lumberJ in other words, they might not be in a fresh install

11:33 Fixer check your firewall?
11:34 Fervi i don't have any and it is single player, so it should works also

12:20 Calinou Fervi: what operating system are you using?
12:21 Fervi Well, dunno :D Devuan Ascii (Debian Stretch without systemd) with some packages (minetest also) from Ceres (Debian Sid)
12:21 Fervi multiplayer works great
12:21 Calinou try compiling Minetest from source, and see if the problem persists
12:21 Fervi ok
12:21 Calinou it might also be faulty network configuration (missing `localhost` alias?)
12:22 Calinou https://github.com/minetest/minetest
12:22 Calinou use the stable-0.4 branch to compile 0.4.16 (it is named 0.4.17, but it's actually 0.4.16)
12:22 texmex74 joined #minetest
12:22 Calinou the `master` branch (upcoming 0.5.0) cannot be used to play on 0.4.16 servers (most servers are currently using this version)
12:31 Fervi still doesn't work, but maybe the problem is with configuration?
12:31 Fervi http://meshnet-users.tk/paste/p/homk/k.txt
12:31 Fervi Maybe old files doesn't like new version of MT?
12:31 Fervi or maybe i need to upgrade all system to unstable :D
12:32 Fixer Fervi: just curious, can you start singleplayer via server (there is option for that on sp screen)?
12:33 Fervi host server? Yep
12:33 Fervi but also doesn't work
12:34 Wuzzy joined #minetest
12:35 Fervi ok, i just try to do upgrade to unstable, maybe thats the problem (minetest in stretch is in 0.4.15; on sid 0.4.16 - maybe some libraries newest are needed)

13:26 BBmine Linux or Windows?

13:27 BBmine Ok. In .minetest, open a terminal and do ls.
13:27 BBmine ls -l actually
13:28 helpless ok

13:39 fridolin joined #minetest
13:41 fridolin Hello, can someone help me ? i want to have boots to walk on water or leaves , and i dont understand how i can do this.
13:41 Tux[Qyou] joined #minetest
13:41 helpless I'm not quite sure either. How much lua do you know?
13:43 fridolin not so much nodes and other small things i can
13:43 helpless Okay... For water you could look at the boat's coding, but leaves i'm not sure
13:44 deltasquared fridolin: I'm just thinking about it, you'd have to change how the engine handles certain node types for a given player *somehow* (in this case set by wearing some boots)
13:44 helpless I need to go, bye
13:44 helpless left #minetest
13:45 deltasquared as water doesn't prevent you from falling through it. I guess you *could* hack it by continuously adjusting their Y value if they're in water, but that doesn't stop the player slow-down effect either
13:45 deltasquared also boats wouldn't help here as they mostly just work by ignoring normal gravity IIRC
13:45 fridolin i want this for my mod  and i can walk trough leaves but i want also walk on it when i have special boots on
13:47 deltasquared fridolin: it doesn't really matter what it's for, you gotta figure out how to do it first
13:47 deltasquared you couldn't exactly get them to hover over water either, pretty sure gravity would still accumulate and you'd have problems trying to counteract it
13:48 fridolin yeah i know
13:48 deltasquared maybe you *could* use something akin to a boat. spawn an entity when over water that you can walk on, have it track the player's X/Z on the water's surface
13:48 deltasquared it would be invisible so at least you wouldn't have to muck with meshes and such
13:50 deltasquared quite frankly, I suspect minecraft's ice walker enchantment behaviour would be easier to implement (if more destructive)
13:52 fridolin ok i must learn how to code for so much work for this :) can some one  help me with this ?
13:52 fridolin sorry i cant speak so much good english :)
13:53 deltasquared fridolin: I would say you can start with dev.minetest.net (it's a wiki of sorts, it shows you various things related to modding), but beware that site isn't complete or 100% up to date. there's a file called lua_api.txt in the doc folder of the minetest installation which is considered the authorative reference
13:53 deltasquared I'm afraid to say it can be a little confusing at times, it's more of a reference than a guide in my experience
13:54 fridolin thank you ! :)
13:55 deltasquared fridolin: in general, the advice I would give is, at least try to find out for yourself how to do these things, but if you are genuinely stuck and know the right questions to ask (in other words, you sound like you mostly know what you're talking about), do not be afraid to do so.
13:56 fridolin ok im out bye

14:33 blaise I have the regular stable release instgalled but the gentoo ebuild seems to have a strange layout as far as configuration goes
14:33 XeonSquared joined #minetest
14:34 blaise haven't quite figured out where to put the stuff....
14:34 blaise I've tried in both /home/minetest/.minetest/ and /usr/share/minetest with no luck
14:37 sfan5 minetest --version says RUN_IN_PLACE=1 right?
14:38 blaise it's minetestserver
14:39 blaise i didnt compile the client on that machine
14:39 blaise let me log in and check
14:42 blaise Build info: VER=0.4.16 BUILD_TYPE=Gentoo RUN_IN_PLACE=0 USE_GETTEXT=1 USE_SOUND=0 USE_CURL=1 USE_FREETYPE=0 USE_LUAJIT=1 STATIC_SHAREDIR="/usr/share/minetest"
14:43 blaise trippy
14:43 blaise so it's definitly supposed to have the stuffs in /usr/share/minetest/
14:43 blaise :/
14:43 twoelk maybe minetest should add a report in the bin folder where it put stuff or expects stuff to be on whatever system it happens to unfold
14:43 sfan5 that does look correct
14:43 sfan5 well except
14:43 sfan5 Gentoo is not a build type
14:44 blaise lmao
14:45 blaise i didn't make the ebuild, I just used it
14:49 troller joined #minetest
14:56 blaise here is the gentoo ebuild https://paste.pound-python.org/show/EBVdfdtGoJbERI6eP4wJ/
14:59 sfan5 i'm sure whatever code calls cmake with that arg knows what it's doing
15:01 blaise elog "Configure your server via /etc/conf.d/minetest-server"
15:01 blaise interesting
15:02 blaise guess I need to mv /usr/share/minetest/minetest.conf /etc/conf.d/

16:14 FreeFull joined #minetest
16:16 orbea are there any well maintained mod packs/subgames that offer a more complete survival based minetest without changing the style too much?
16:16 Krock blaise, in minetest.conf
16:16 orbea the lists I am finding are full of potentially poorly maintained and out of date choices so its making it hard to find a few worth trying
16:16 Krock https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=4738
16:16 Krock ^ orbea
16:17 orbea thanks
16:17 Krock or https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=13573
16:17 Krock but the best solution is to check out the mods that exist and look whether they fit to your world
16:18 Krock If you need a random button, here's it: http://krock-works.16mb.com/MTstuff/modSearch.php?st=2
16:19 orbea yea, i plan to fine tune it over time, but im pretty new to using minetest :)
16:19 orbea cool thanks
16:20 Krock !next
16:20 MinetestBot Another satisfied customer. Next!
16:21 orbea first one seems to have not been touched since 2015?
16:23 Krock ouch yes. code is already 2.5 years old
16:24 orbea second one looks like a good starting place though :)
