Time Nick Message 08:37 derixithy Does anyone has a simple way to generate a side view image of a block or save the ingame image that has been generated? 08:38 derixithy I want to save the inventory image because i can then use it in crafting mod 08:45 ashtrayoz2 F12 for a screenshot? 08:48 derixithy no the isometric view of a single block, with a a screenshot i get everything. Alternative is editing it manually for all blocks which would take to much time 08:50 lumberJ derixithy: minetest.inventorycube ? 08:50 lumberJ http://dev.minetest.net/inventorycube 08:59 derixithy Thanks 09:00 lumberJ yw 09:10 derixithy Is there a way to set the background color for an item description? I know you can set text colors but i did not see anything about the background color 09:18 lumberJ `minetest.get_background_escape_sequence(color)` looks like what you are looking for: 09:19 derixithy Thank you! 09:20 lumberJ no problem 09:22 derixithy Wow that makes such a difference. This is awesome 09:22 IcyDiamond ooh i didnt know that was a thing 09:22 IcyDiamond nice 09:22 wilkgr ^ me either 09:23 lumberJ i didn't either, but i happen to have the lua api open in front of me 09:23 wilkgr (or is it "me neither"?) 09:23 wilkgr hehe 09:23 wilkgr that always helps :) 09:24 lumberJ indeed. theres is quite the accumulation of things there now that are not on the website version 09:24 lumberJ or the wiki version rather* 09:24 IcyDiamond how do i make proper model in blender that fits in exactly one node 12:18 JDCodeIt IcyDiamond: It would be nice to have a general Wiki on using Blender to create proper *.obj files for use in minetest. Not sure that page exists. You could have a look at travelnet - the obj is 2 nodes high, but 1 in the other dimensions. 13:25 JDCodeIt debugging a mod - is there a way to pass a position into the formspec that cannot be accessed by the player? The technique tried here was to put a field out of view with a text representation of the position, then decode it later. 13:26 JDCodeIt Unfortunately, keyboard input happens to go to this field, corrupting the position representation 13:26 JDCodeIt field[20,20;0.1,0.1;pos2str;Pos;"..minetest.pos_to_string( pos ).."] 13:33 JDCodeIt The mod needs that position when on_player_receive_fields is called by activity in the formspec 13:40 JDCodeIt Hmmm I think the modder misunderstood on_receive_fields of the nodedef - and instead tried to register a general callback to handle the formspec - which has no node reference. 13:42 JDCodeIt Therefore, it is totally unnecessary to register the general callback in this instance, and instead manage the node-specific routine in on_receive_fields() of the nodedef 14:18 algun|home Hey would anyone know a Bad_command, who used to be the moderator of gameboom years ago?
