01:46 Quiark      minetest has some occlusion culling right? I found a spot in my map where a mountain was popping out and in depending on angle
03:06 ShadowNinja Yes, it has some occlusion culling.  The implementation could be improved though.
03:09 ShadowNinja Irrlicht has built-in support for it, but we treat the entire world as a single object from Irrlicht's point of view (this could probably be changed to doing things at the mapblock level), so we have our own implementation.
03:36 Quiark      how dead is irrlicht as oss project?
03:40 erlehmann   Quiark, elaborate?
03:40 erlehmann   this seems to have physical trains that can go up mountains. doesn't it? https://github.com/jordan4ibanez/trains evidence: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBvKqzTkUZA
05:09 ShadowNinja It's not dead there are recent commits: https://sourceforge.net/p/irrlicht/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/
07:47 rubenwardy  Quiark, ShadowNinja: irrlicht is dead. The last full release was in 2013, and the last bug fix was 2016(?). The only maintainer says that lots of unstable stuff was merged and he's struggling to get it to release

19:38 Wuzzy       who wants to BuildBattle?!
20:05 Krock       Wuzzy: what's that?
20:12 Wuzzy       simple: you have 5 minutes to build the best building. most liked building wins
20:13 Wuzzy       Telesight has a BuildBattle server
20:25 Krock       Fixer_: I'd get Minetest to build in that time
20:25 Krock       Wuzzy: what are my chances for a dirt house?
20:26 Wuzzy       pretty good, there is almost no competition ?
20:27 Wuzzy       but the rules of the game are that you have to build some random specified thing like "Rabbit" or "Ship" or "Castle" etc
20:29 Krock       meanwhile I can only build some standard houses
20:31 Ingar       5 minutes is like
20:31 Ingar       less than the time needed to decide where to place the first node
20:32 Krock       Ingar: relevant https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3jmSrYCWYI
20:32 Krock       "10 sec" is the equivalent to "5 minutes" in Minetest
22:31 Wuzzy       rubenwardy: how do I delete a borked release in Content DB?
22:31 Wuzzy       (due to import fail)
22:32 Wuzzy       https://content.minetest.net/packages/Wuzzy/retroplus/
22:32 rubenwardy  Unapprove it, change the title  and wait for me to do it
22:32 rubenwardy  I still need to add a delete release feature
22:32 Wuzzy       I can't unapprove a release
22:32 rubenwardy  Currently I run the same SQL command lol
22:32 Wuzzy       this texture pack is not approved yet
22:32 rubenwardy  Oh  so that's a fun bug
22:33 Wuzzy       I made a typo when entering the tag name
22:33 Wuzzy       then it tries to "import" it forever ?
22:33 rubenwardy  There's an approve() method which is supposed to check these things, I guess I'm not using it somewhere
22:34 Wuzzy       Easy to reproduce: Add a release but use an invalid tag name.
22:34 rubenwardy  I should probably add an SQL constraint for tjis
22:35 rubenwardy  I've unapproved it
22:35 Wuzzy       good
22:35 rubenwardy  (admins can edit release URLs and remove pending tasks)
22:36 rubenwardy  Once I removed the pending task, I could unapprove it
22:36 Wuzzy       i think the error is that the task never finishes. maybe also add a timeout of some sorts.
22:37 Wuzzy       i can self-approve packages right?
22:39 rubenwardy  Yeah
23:20 Wuzzy       lol I just managed to kill JT2... oops
