13:12 jas_            i feel like just making sam a small box that doesn't animate and be done with it.  there is this weird glitchy animation to the movement in third person i never noticed before.  i should do a video :/
13:15 jas_            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkIU0-6lgDA probably my modding
13:43 crazyR          Any advise? I'm running a v5 minetest server. using mgv7 and i cant find lava. also there is no normal caves all caves are in the form of diagonal lines..
13:44 sfan5           using minetest_game?
13:44 crazyR          yeah
13:46 sfan5           that should be working fine
13:48 scr267          Is it a custom compile?  I only ask in case the minetest_game version matches the minetest vrsion..
13:48 scr267          I ran into some issues when I had different versions.
14:00 crazyR          custom compile both versions match.. is it possible the num_emerge_threads option could cause it?
14:15 scr267          crazyR: I've played around with that option and never had that kind of issue.
15:19 crazyR          in the past ive never had that issue neither... weird
19:33 paramat         crazyR concerning your diagonal caves, are you setting any cave noise params or a custom 'chunksize'?

19:46 crazyR          custom chunk size 16
19:46 crazyR          @paramat
19:47 paramat         aha!
19:47 paramat         too big
19:47 paramat         that overloads 3D noise
19:47 paramat         anything over 6 is excessive
19:48 paramat         see docs for warning https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/d6f2a1c4b8ab13cee92e2041b3410fe3548e88e6/minetest.conf.example#L2904
19:49 crazyR          ahhh il update date it now, thanks. do you think that might also be what causes lava caverns to not generate
19:50 paramat         in fact i highly recommend chunksize 5, there's no benefit in increasing it
19:51 crazyR          i figured with bigger cpu would generate the map faster... my bad :D
19:52 paramat         lava should be present in some of the mid size caves below y = -256. i don't expect chunksize affects lava caves because they don't use 3D noise

19:55 crazyR          paramat would i need to delete map_meta.txt and regenerate it for the chunksize to take effect?
19:58 paramat         it's best to start a new world if you can
19:58 paramat         but yes you would need to edit the new value into map_meta.txt
19:59 crazyR          not really something i can do... well.... I mean i could speak to the few people that have joined and see if they have any issues with me world editing there structures back into the new map but that would be a night mare lol
20:00 paramat         changing chunksize really messes up a world so you would need to delete all blocks and regenerate everything anyway, might as well start a new world
20:00 paramat         ahh
20:01 paramat         you can try altering chunksize and seeing what happens, deleting areas without player structures
20:02 crazyR          I think i might just be best copying structures with world edit andthen bringing them back in... there isnt many players atm as its a fairly new server..... thanks for you help.
21:14 johnnyjoy       Has anyone here experimented with pre-generating all or part of the map?
21:15 johnnyjoy       I used minetest.emerge_area to generate everything from y +300 to y -300 for the whole map, but when I logged in the server just consumed more and more ram until it crashed.
21:29 sfan5           sounds like you just don't have enough ram
21:29 sfan5           pregenerating the map was never a problem
21:29 sfan5           (or the wrong settings for too few ram)
21:40 johnnyjoy       I was able to pre-generate the map just fine. It was done in small amounts over 6 hours.
21:41 johnnyjoy       It was only after I logged into the server that the ram problem happened.
22:19 johnnyjoy       I should also mention that my machine has 48GB of free RAM for minetest to use, and it ran out.
