04:40 MarisaG      Anyone help with the irc module? I am getting this error sometimes:
04:40 MarisaG      ServerError: AsyncErr: ServerThread::run Lua: Runtime error from mod 'irc' in callback on_chat_message(): ...games/minetest/games/minetest_game/mods/irc/chatcmds.lua:50: attempt to index a nil value
04:50 sofar        MarisaG: maybe incorrect config (looks like irc.config.channel is not set)?
04:51 sofar        MarisaG: also, maybe open an issue at https://github.com/minetest-mods/irc/issues
05:00 MarisaG      thanks, will do that now. Oddly it is working otherwise. Not sure what command was being used at the time it crashed the server
05:04 sofar        it's /irc_names I think
05:12 MarisaG      Yes I think so too. The co-owner said it crashed with that command before
05:12 MarisaG      I posted on the github page...
05:17 swift110     hey all
07:15 slemonide    Is it possible to turn off ABM all together?
07:16 slemonide    Or, better than that, is there a reliable way to determine if a node is "laggy"?
08:56 ChimneySwift slemonide: use the profiler. disabling all abms is probably a bad idea considering how much default stuff runs off them.
16:03 deltasquared daft question, which way around do coordinates work in textures? is it Y going up or down
16:03 deltasquared like if I was using the [combine texture modifier for instance
16:15 Krock        deltasquared: top left to bottom right
16:17 deltasquared cheers, just playing with it now

18:47 Sketch2      is there a wiki that explains how to use the color mixing parameter?
19:00 Krock        color mixing...?
19:03 Sketch2      yeah, instead of putting in individual textures for every color, you just put in one, then use the color parameter to generate various hues
19:03 paramat      ah hardware colouring
19:03 Sketch2      i've looked at it before, just don't remember the specifics
19:04 paramat      erm best find a mod that does it, VanessaE has used it a lot
19:05 Sketch2      yeah, she's the one that pointed it out to me long ago, but had a hard time figuring out how to code it.
19:06 VanessaE     like my just-released LED marquee mod.
19:07 VanessaE     the irony is that the current version of your stained glass mod is hardware-colored :)
19:07 Krock        create a 16x16 texture, each pixel a custom color. then set it as palette texture, use the "color" paramtype2 and just set param2 of the node to the desired index
19:08 VanessaE     ^^ the palette can be any dimensions as long as they're powers of 2.
19:08 Krock        things get a little more complicated with colorfacedir and such, where you need to do some bitops
19:11 Sketch2      ok, cool.  it's making more sense now.

23:54 MarisaG      FYI - I have updated my Minetest sysadmin tools to version 1.1.0 - added the options to view mintest log and the players list. More info here: https://github.com/fstltna/MinetestManagementConsole
