14:18 scr267_         Is it theoretically possible to register an action like register_on_punchplayer() based on a priv that a user has?   I've had an idea to create a 'punishment' privilege for overly aggressive players... Assign the priv and when they hit another player, they actually hurt themselves in the process.
14:19 sfan5           of course
14:19 sfan5           you can just check the player privilege inside the callback
14:20 scr267_         Right, so the mod would register the callback on all players then?
14:20 scr267_         sfan5: Thanks for the tip, I'll give that a try
14:22 sfan5           yes it would
14:23 scr267_         I guess on my server thats not a significant impact XD    - I only get max 5 ~  8 players at any given time
14:23 scr267_         Cool, much appreciated once again
17:28 codic           Is it possible to code Minetest mods in Python or Ruby
17:29 codic           * Is it possible to code Minetest mods in Python or Ruby? I don't really want to learn Lua which is yet another language to learn on top of Python, Java, JavaScript, C++ etc
17:29 Krock           Yes, if you pipe your code through a Python/Ruby to Lua converter
17:29 Krock           lool
17:29 Krock           You can learn Lua in 15 minutes
17:30 Krock           http://tylerneylon.com/a/learn-lua/
17:30 codic           Lol
17:30 Krock           or compile your code to a dynamic library which then can be imported to Lua using the insecure "include" function
17:31 codic           I might learn Lua, but do you know any converters?
17:31 codic           Maybe Python/Ruby->C/C++->Lua
17:31 Krock           no, I doubt that exists. It would be way too complicated to covert entire libraries
17:33 Krock           PS: in case you're wondering. this here might not work in LuaJIT: (condition and func1 or func2)(arg1, arg2)
17:34 Krock           although  table[condition and func1 or func2](arg1, arg2)  works
17:38 kurtzmusch      codic: just learn lua syntax and know that tables are the only data structures
17:39 Krock           can be recursive data structures
17:53 tomraceror      <Krock> You can learn Lua in 15 minutes interesting
17:54 Krock           tomraceror: you maybe don't
17:54 Krock           do it in 14 minutes
17:54 tomraceror      would be cool
17:55 tomraceror      i am reading
17:55 tomraceror      Gibts auch ne deutsche anleitung,ist schon abend...XD

21:34 sagax           hi all!
21:35 sagax           How to understand the place of the appearance of monsters?
21:38 sagax           i just built a base underground, and the base includes a mobs spawn point. i don’t understand which part of the database to remove.
21:39 codic           @kurtzmuch: not sure how easy it is tbh
21:39 codic           But sure I'll give it a shot
21:39 codic           Where are the API docs?
21:39 codic           for Minetest's mod api for lua
21:39 codic           and are c++ mods a thing
21:41 calcul0n        codic, https://rubenwardy.com/minetest_modding_book/en/index.html
21:41 calcul0n        and i don't think there are c++ mods
21:42 calcul0n        it's free software though, you can still modify the engine as you like :)
21:45 codic           Nice
21:45 codic           I'll read that guide and  thanks! Also if any transpilers exist that work with MT I'll let the community know here
22:04 kurtzmusch      MinetestBot
22:05 kurtzmusch      !tell kurtzmusch hi
22:05 MinetestBot     You can tell that to yourself
22:06 kurtzmusch      codic: !api
22:06 kurtzmusch      !api
22:06 MinetestBot     Someone thinks you should read the API docs, please go to: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/lua_api.txt
22:45 Ruslan1         ?
22:52 cities          anyone know someone named. fritigan or fertigan
22:52 cities          or something like that
23:12 Parnikkapore[m] C++ mods aren't a thing because Minetest mods are meant to be hotswapped by any player/server owner ?
