10:29 dievri         hello. I saw in worldedit functions to set area specified by two positions to the node specified. Is is any tool to set also node meta in the area specified?
12:21 BuckarooBanzai dievri, tool? not that i know of but you can use the lua worldedit command: '//lua minetest.get_meta(worldedit.pos1["dievri"]):set_int("something", 42)'
12:21 BuckarooBanzai (this only sets the meta on the position of the first marker though)
14:59 dievri         hello. I have an area from p1 to p2 of nodes. how quickly set meta data to the nodes? meta data will be the same
15:00 sfan5          there's no quicker way to do that than the usual methods
15:01 dievri         in a loop, setting each node?

16:31 bebebeko       folks, it's a bug when i got SRP data in minetest.create_auth handler, the data is '#1#botK7gWgYwifzzluWzDpEw#IXcaAF7Hn1ABnlimt2F9xYhD+o+Q3PyZfEiES.....'
16:31 ShadowBot      https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/1 -- GlowStone code by anonymousAwesome
16:31 bebebeko       it's related to https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/10331 ?
16:32 sfan5          huh?
16:33 rubenwardy     that doesn't look like a bug to me
16:33 rubenwardy     well, you're going to have to be more specific
16:34 rubenwardy     that looks like an encoded SRP string - SRP relies on a few pieces of data, which are concatenated into a single string
16:35 bebebeko       rubenwardy: is there a way to get password base64(sha1.digest(username + password)) from SRP record ? i try to write custom auth handler
16:35 rubenwardy     No, SRP doesn't contain the password
16:35 rubenwardy     SRP works by the client proving they know the password, without ever sending the password to the server
16:36 bebebeko       oh shi~ thank you for clarification, is that means i need write my own SRP auth handler, yep?
16:36 Yoda_          a question
16:36 Yoda_          about armor damage
16:36 rubenwardy     You can return sha1 digests from the custom auth handler, if the account was created externally. But for newly created accounts, I don't think you can force sha1 - you'd need to handle sha1
16:37 Yoda_          here is this player that seems gets no damage is this possible
16:37 Yoda_          maybe a hacked client
16:39 Corey[m]       Yoda_: Does anyone else on the server take damage?
16:39 Yoda_          yes
16:39 Yoda_          this one player it seems gets non
16:40 Yoda_          had a one on one pvp
16:40 Yoda_          no damage on her part
16:40 sfan5          did you check the armor groups defined for that player?
16:40 Yoda_          I was hitting hundreds of times
16:40 Yoda_          nothing lol
16:40 Corey[m]       Hits don't matter if the armor cancels all of it
16:40 Yoda_          no
16:40 bebebeko       rubenwardy: may be the problem in my debug workflow, but looks like the in the first call of minetest.create_auth, password variable is a SRP data ... (server and client == 5.3.0)
16:41 rubenwardy     yes, the client will always register with SRP data
16:41 rubenwardy     SHA1 is only used if the account is already registered with that
16:41 rubenwardy     ie: if get_auth returns SHA1 data
16:41 rubenwardy     hmm, I wonder if you can downgrade attack with this
16:42 rubenwardy     probably
16:42 sfan5          in theory the server could pretend the account exists to force sha1, couldn't it?
16:42 sfan5          yeah
16:42 Yoda_          nice to see you are still around sfan5 its an honor to see you
16:43 bebebeko       okay, got it, i write auth handler for custom backend, and backend required some password (sha1/base64 doesn't matter, some "fixed" string without random data), how i can achieve that?
16:43 sfan5          I don't leave easily ;)
16:44 sfan5          anyway most damage is server-side, so a mod or the armor groups must be cancelling it
16:45 Yoda_          I see
16:45 Yoda_          ILl talk to the admin
16:45 Yoda_          about it
16:45 Yoda_          thank you
16:46 bebebeko       if i understood correctly, auth rx module doesn't work in 5.3.0 https://bitbucket.org/sorcerykid/auth_rx right?
16:48 rubenwardy     Have you tried it?
16:48 rubenwardy     ContentDB says it works in 5.3
16:48 rubenwardy     there's even a lite version that is 5.3+
16:51 bebebeko       rubenwardy: nope, i didn't tried, looks like i need to learn more about SRP, but it's a little suprised me
16:53 bebebeko       i mean, that is there no way to pass password from client to server side for "unusual" backend authorization (as in my case)
16:57 bebebeko       looks like i need to introduce new packet type AUTH_MECHANISM_PLAIN and increase ToClientCommand/ToServerCommand enums ;-)
20:01 rubenwardy     would need a big red warning dialog
20:15 SoylentCow     hi everyone
20:15 SoylentCow     i have a regression inhardcore_death mod
20:15 SoylentCow     something about overloading on_join_player
20:16 SoylentCow     this did not use to happen, but now happening, may be since one of the post-5 upgrades

20:18 SoylentCow     ------------------
20:19 sfan5          absolutely use a paste service next time
20:19 SoylentCow     i am sorry
20:20 sfan5          you need to return true from on_respawnplayer if you kick the player
20:21 SoylentCow     i am terribly sorry, i should have done this: https://dpaste.org/vYWV
20:21 SoylentCow     thank you so much
20:24 sfan5          what seems interesting to me however is that respawnplayer runs before joinplayer
20:24 sfan5          or do you have another on_joinplayer hook?
20:25 SoylentCow     not that i know of, but i have about 200mods here
20:25 sfan5          in harcode_death I mean
20:26 sfan5          hardcore*
20:26 SoylentCow     oh no, i dpasted the entire hc_death code
20:26 SoylentCow     and i tested crash by commenting out the 2 register_on functions
20:26 SoylentCow     calls
20:27 sfan5          you say two but there is only one
20:27 sfan5          ah nvm
20:27 sfan5          I didn't open the link
20:27 SoylentCow     oh yeah sorry i mean... yeah
20:44 SoylentCow     hmm what i did ain't working: https://dpaste.org/Wns0
20:45 SoylentCow     oh... is that because i send chat to all?
20:53 SoylentCow     nope...
20:54 SoylentCow     commenting out kick fixed it
20:54 SoylentCow     i'lltry delay i guess...
20:56 sfan5          yeah the respawnplayer was misleading
20:57 sfan5          what you need is to kick them delayed using minetest.after(0, ...)
21:01 SoylentCow     awesome sauce, i am gonna try that :)
21:09 specing        Is it necessary to immidiately update formspecs if something happens? Can it be done ondemand? Can they be only sent to client when the client wishes to interact with whatever uses them?
21:09 sfan5          I assume you're referring to formspecs in metadata
21:10 specing        I'm investigating ridiculously high network traffic (client side) that happens when I enter areas with many machines
21:10 specing        from 5KB/s where nothing is happening, to 10KB/s with mobs and then to 200KB/s and beyond when machines are involved
21:11 specing        this is not normal
21:11 sfan5          did you look inside the traffic?
21:15 specing        not yet
21:15 specing        yes yes....
