Time Nick Message 07:29 rdococ Welcome to the silent ghost town of Minetestia 07:30 rdococ Seriously, nobody's talked in ages. probably people's sleeptimes :P 07:30 ANAND Mid-day for me :) 07:31 * ANAND eats Meseconium for lunch 07:33 rdococ I think mesecons are made of mese, and the -con is because it adds wires that -connect things 07:33 ANAND quite possible 07:34 rdococ Evidence: Mese block is made of mese, not mesecons, conducts like mesecon wire, and neither one needs special preparation or conversion into meseconium 07:34 ANAND true 08:02 rdococ I love the smell of WIP mods in the morning 08:05 rdococ ANAND: It's so quiet now 08:05 rdococ I might turn into an electron again 08:11 ANAND MinetestBot should start saying random stuff if things get too quiet... 08:41 hisforevr Hi I'd like to know if there is any mods for fancy buildings 11:39 dustfinger I am brand new and am just working through the minetest.conf. how does rollback work? If I sent enable_rollback_recording to true and one of the players accidentally ruins one of their creations how would I roll back that creat? Do you specify an amount of time to rollback and then it just puts the whole world back say 10 min? 11:44 sfan5 you can roll back actions of a specific player until a specific point the past 11:51 dustfinger sfan5: And that point is picked by specifying a time I assume? That sounds like it is worth enabling then. 11:53 dustfinger The minetest.conf has a name for an admin user. If I played with that user all of the time will I still be able to play normally, or will the admin features affect the gameplay? In other words, can i just always run as an admin so that when I need to use those features I don't have to sign out first, or should I have a seperate user for admin that I would not normally play as? 11:53 ANAND dustfinger: here's the syntax: /rollback [seconds] 11:54 ANAND where the time is assumed to be 60 seconds if not explicitly specified 11:56 dustfinger ANAND: thanks. 11:56 ANAND happy to help 12:20 dustfinger I am running ubuntu as the server. I downloaded a minetest game (lord of the test) and decompressed it in /usr/share/games/minetest/games/. minetestserver is not in roots path. I guess it is not recommended to run minetestserver as root? When I try to run it as my minetest user it can't open /var/log/minetest/minetest.log do to permission denied: https://pastebin.com/ByQsxTuW. How should I be running mintetest? Was 12:20 dustfinger /usr/share/games/minetest/games the correct place to put my chosen game? 12:22 coyote yes, it's not recommended to run minetest as root because 3th-party mods can contains viruses. 12:27 dustfinger coyote: Good to know. so how do I run the server on ubuntu as none root? Should I just update the log so that it is owned by the minetest group I created? 12:27 dustfinger Then run as minetest user? 12:27 coyote $ adduser minetest 12:28 coyote minetest games and mods can be also placed in ~/.minetest 12:28 dustfinger coyote: Ahh, okay I will do that. 12:30 dustfinger coyote: The folder is empty, should I just create ~/.minetest/games/ to palce the games in? 12:30 coyote yes 12:30 coyote just create it 12:30 dustfinger Will I need to create other sub directories other than games? or will the server just create what is needed after that? 12:31 coyote no, not necessarily 14:59 ANAND I seem to get an error message everytime I open MT: 14:59 ANAND ERROR[Main]: MSVC localization workaround active. Restarting Minetest in a new environment! 15:00 ANAND Any help would be much appreciated? Should I even bother? 15:00 sfan5 should you bother? no 15:00 ANAND ok 15:00 ANAND but what's it? 16:37 MinetestBot 02[git] 04SmallJoker -> 03minetest/minetest: Builtin auth handler: Speed up file writing (#7252) 1336eb823 https://git.io/vptBa (152018-04-19T16:36:10Z) 19:13 MinetestBot 02[git] 04rubenwardy -> 03minetest/minetest: Add in-game online content repository 133ea6ace https://git.io/vptDq (152018-04-19T19:10:02Z) 19:15 MinetestBot 02[git] 04rubenwardy -> 03minetest/minetest: Add online content repository 1387ad4d8 https://git.io/vptD4 (152018-04-19T19:14:53Z) 19:42 garywhite hello 19:43 rubenwardy o/ 19:44 Markow Hi all 19:58 Krock hi 23:03 swift110 hey all
