14:13 MTDiscord   <08f​reshreplicant> This is the code I'm looking at adapting - in testing I got it to work for anything called 'sword' with my own sounds. But there' so many if statements, that set up the ability to toggle sound on and off, that I'm not sure where to put in extra if else statements, e.g. to detect if something fleshy is being hit, an object, or nothing.

14:20 Krock       a bit faster than callbacks on join/leave plus manual list
14:21 Krock       > , e.g. to detect if something fleshy is being hit,
14:23 Krock       weird. I thought there was some builtin code to damage swords when entities are hit
14:25 MTDiscord   <08f​reshreplicant> I think I'll strip out the toggling sound part, because if the mod will be primarily sound based at first, there's no point if people can toggle it off.
17:20 dievri      Good evening! Today i'm testing NPC framework. I set walk position, the NPC is going to this point, and then returning. Why it can be?
17:24 MTDiscord   <08f​reshreplicant> It has achieved conciousness.

17:44 Nicomem141  Hello Guys,
17:44 Nicomem141  Where are the user passwords stored?
17:45 pyrollo     Hi, Depends on the auth backend
17:45 pyrollo     Either in a text file or a sqlite db
17:46 Krock       just browser your world's directory
17:47 pyrollo     Hi Krock
17:47 Krock       hi pyrollo
18:09 uhrenmacher Hello People!
18:11 jas_        hi
18:11 uhrenmacher I just began to play this game
18:11 uhrenmacher hello
18:11 jas_        you like it?
18:11 uhrenmacher yeah, it is awesome. the amount of mods really suprised me
18:12 uhrenmacher tbh the greatest motivation to play this game was that it is completely open source
18:12 jas_        yeah that's great
18:12 jas_        lots of content, fun to mod
18:13 uhrenmacher How yeah, normally I do not play that much games, but this is really good...and the IRC is not that incative as well
18:13 uhrenmacher I am glad to see someone on the IRC
18:14 jas_        they linked it to a discord i guess
18:14 jas_        and some servers are also linked to irc
18:14 MTDiscord   <12a​ndysphinx> hello from the discord! I am also new
18:14 jas_        the forum is nice, and github repo has a lot of activity
18:15 jas_        also minetest.reddit.com if you like that

18:15 jas_        nice
18:15 uhrenmacher I am not on reddit, at least I do not have an account there, but the Discord is good
18:18 jas_        i heard a lot of good things about nodecore, did you play it?
18:18 uhrenmacher actually not
18:19 jas_        hm, i need to learn blender :'(

19:15 specing     Does anyone know if there is a keybind that drops only one item from a stack? q drops the whole stack
19:15 specing     or is there a way to rebind q to only drop one item?
19:16 heavygale   hold shit? or control? while dropping,…
19:16 heavygale   can'T say for sure which it is
19:16 heavygale   maybe alt? :D
19:16 heavygale   *shit=shift :D :D
19:17 specing     heavygale: ah indeed that works, thanks
19:23 Krock       Alt+F4
19:40 MTDiscord   <04L​one_Wolf> Ctrl+Alt+f4 on Linux
19:42 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> Its Alt+F4 on all systems
19:43 Krock       even those with altered hotkeys
19:50 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> Is there a callback for when the server itself is loaded? on_mods_loaded is called before the server is loaded, and it seems that is the case for the minetest.after queue as well
19:50 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> Or at least some event that cant/doesnt happen until the server is up
19:53 Krock       minetest.after is triggered by globalstep
19:53 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> Which is why I thought it would work
19:53 Krock       on_mods_loaded comes before the content is initialized
19:53 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> right
19:54 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> and I want a hook for after content is initialized
19:54 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> I thought that the server step process didnt start until after the server was loaded and content was initialized
19:55 Krock       callback is run here: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/src/server.cpp#L410
19:56 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> The server environment doesnt initialize until after media is cached
19:56 Krock       which makes sense
19:56 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> therefore globalsteps and .after shouldnt run until after media is cached
19:56 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> Unless media caching is sync
19:56 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> async*
19:57 Krock       single-threaded until everything's set up
19:57 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> Well I am not experiencing this behavior I am seeing
19:58 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> I am writing some media in a mod and then removing it in a .after hook to load the media and then remove it, and the client media loading hangs if the .after delay is too low
19:58 Krock       how do you remove media?
19:59 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> Just removing the files using os.remove .. in theory it should already be cached
19:59 Krock       the texture name is cached and its hash value
19:59 Krock       but the file contents aren't
20:00 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> Are they cached once read?
20:00 Krock       probably, but better don't rely on that so that unused media can unloaded by the client somewhen
20:00 Krock       to truely remove media once it's no longer needed in the game session
20:01 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> Makes sense .. that means I should either do it in an on_shutdown hook or dynamically make a worldmod
20:01 dievri      hello. Is there any function like minetest.register_globalstep, but which is called not so often, perhaps 3-5 seconds
20:01 dievri      ?
20:01 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> the worldmod method may be better that way the mod wont have conflicts if used by two servers simultaneously
20:02 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> dieveri: You can use a globalstep and only call your desired code every 3-5 seconds by using a timer variable incremented with the globalstep dtime
20:03 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> If you dont want to register a globalstep, you can use a recursive minetest.after function which will add to the already-existing minetest.after queue
20:03 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> dievri*
20:03 Krock       which causes a stack overflow after some thousands of years of server uptime
20:03 Krock       or no
20:04 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> It shouldn't
20:04 Krock       it's not recursive, so that won't happen
20:04 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> its only "recursive"
20:04 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> (emphasis on the quotes)
20:06 dievri      minetest.after called just once?
20:06 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> Correct, inside your "recursive" function
20:07 MTDiscord   <11G​reenXenith> something like local function yourfunction() --[[do stuff]]-- minetest.after(3, yourfunction) end yourfunction()
20:07 dievri      sounds good, I will try this
20:10 dievri      cool, this is exactly what I needed. thank you
