10:06 Quiark anyone having bug in inventory that it incorrectly reacts to mouseup?
10:06 Quiark I pick up item using mousedown but it gets dropped to a nearby slot where I do mouseup

10:32 sfan5 by "nearby" do you mean you are hovering over the slot it ends up in or not?

11:15 tango_ Quiark: I've seen it happen too
11:15 tango_ sfan5: to me it happens during the motion from the slot it comes from to the slot I plan to put it in
11:15 tango_ sometimes it drops on one of the intervening slots
11:16 tango_ and if there's something in it it gets swapped with that
11:16 tango_ very straonge
11:16 tango_ I hadn't considered it might be lag
11:16 tango_ (in the mouseup event handling)
11:16 tango_ the impression I get is as if the click + move + click becomes two drag motions

18:23 jackdoe I know Minetest is an open source recreation of Minecraft
18:23 jackdoe I played Mineclone 2 for a bit.
18:23 Ingar !ops
18:23 jackdoe Hey.
18:23 MisterE was that spam on purpose?
18:23 jackdoe Spam?
18:23 MisterE reposting...
18:23 MisterE tIDK, 50 x
18:24 jackdoe Okay, Im a newbie to Minetest after playing Minecraft for a while so I wanted to see what anyone can tell me about Minetest.
18:24 MisterE Ok
18:24 jackdoe I played Mineclone 2 for a bit but it kinda left me wanting as it had a few things I miss from Minecraft.
18:24 MisterE For the best experience, join a server
18:24 MisterE ^^
18:24 jackdoe Okay
18:24 jackdoe I always found Minecrafts music very soothing
18:25 MisterE Look for servers that have an interesting description nd a lot of players
18:25 jackdoe And I always notice how you have to keep holding down the "forward" key when jumping or else you stop in mid-air
18:25 MisterE A good start is Blocky SUrvival, though survival isnt hard there, there are lots of interesting builds
18:26 FeXoR joined #minetest
18:27 jackdoe Can you link me there?
18:27 jackdoe Cant seem to find it on ContentDB
18:28 MisterE @ jackdoe: Go to the servers tab and search Blocky SUrvival
18:28 MisterE t*Blocky Survival
18:28 jackdoe But anyway, Im still willing to give Minetest a second chance. Other than it being open source, what does Minetest have that Minecraft doesnt?
18:30 MisterE The idea behind minetest is that you can mod literally anything. If you are here to have fun, go to the servers tab and join a few and find a good one to play. You get a different experience with each server. Some servers have original content that the server owners make. Try the server IFS for a lot of original content
18:32 MisterE Minecraft is a game. Minetest is not a game... it is a program that allows you to play games. TO play a game, you can either make one by installing mods from the ContentDB or you can join a server (much better)
18:33 jackdoe I certainly find that overwhelming with all the mods on offer.
18:33 jackdoe I'm just looking to try and recreate Minecraft as close as possible.
18:34 Peppy joined #minetest
18:35 Ingar there are games that do just that
18:35 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> If you're trying to recreate Minecraft as closely as possible, I'd recommend Minecraft.  They emulate not only the gameplay, but even the licensing, pricing model, etc.
18:35 jackdoe *chuckles*
18:36 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> If you're here then it means you must be looking for something that's different in some important ways.
18:36 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> From what I understand the closest experience to Minecraft that MT has is probably MineClone2 right now.
18:36 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> it's a game, available for install on the content tab.  There may be servers for it, I'm not sure, haven't looked.
18:37 jackdoe I'm just disappointed that Mineclone 2, so far, feels more like a cheap clone of Mincraft and I want to see if I'm missing something, if anyone can persuade me to give it another chance
18:37 MisterE Minetest is not free minecraft. Here, you will find a great diversity of content bc users can make their own content easily. Do you understand how to join a server? thats what you want to do...
18:37 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> yeah, any clone is likely to be "cheap"
18:37 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> When it comes to imitating Minecraft, Minecraft really has an advantage that nobody else can access.
18:37 Ingar and microsoft's money :D
18:38 jackdoe Well thanks anyway guys. As for trying the servers, I think I'll give that a try some more
18:38 MisterE Mineclone *is* not only a cheap clone of minecraft, its a *free* clone of minecraft. It is also supposed to be nostalgic... as Minecraft was many years ago.
18:38 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> I make a game for Minetest myself, and find Minecraft to be a pretty crappy clone of it.
18:38 jackdoe Unfortunately for me, I didnt play Minecraft right when it started. I only played the more recent versions and thats what I fell in love with.
18:38 jackdoe Right down to the atmosphere and music
18:39 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> That sucks.  It was the earlier versions when it was really at its best :-)
18:39 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> I'm sorry you had to miss that
18:39 Ingar Especially the epic bugs
18:39 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> Maybe it's for the best for you, since at least they still make the version you love.
18:39 jackdoe What was it about the original version that the current one lacks? Besides the bugs?
18:40 Ingar jackdoe: far more 'uncomplicated'
18:40 jackdoe Fair enough
18:40 Ingar I also liked the worlds more
18:40 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> I bought MC back in the beta days, but ended up leaving because I was dissatisfied with gameplay direction.  I ended up getting into the MC modding scene a bit, but then came over to MT because the modding tools in this world are much better than they've ever been in MC.
18:41 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> So, yes, it's possible to come to MT from MC and find it to be anything other than just a cheap knock-off.
18:41 jackdoe Can I at least find soundtrack mods for MT?
18:41 jackdoe um, music packages?
18:41 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> Music for MT games is rare because the size of the media files.  Mostlly people just play their own music in the background in a separate player.
18:42 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> There ARE some packages that do music when it's integrated into gameplay.  IIRC the Infinite Ikea does some music cue control based on gameplay environment...?
18:42 jackdoe Im interested. What was it about the gameplay that you felt dissatisfied with?
18:43 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> They just kept adding crap.  They had this really cool voxel world emergent mechanics thing they could have focused on, but instead they just kept adding pets and other frivolities that didn't build on what they had.  I saw the Better than Wolves mod going in a different direction, and building a comprehensive gameplay experience where each added element built on others, rather than just being more fluff.  I wanted more of that,
18:43 MTDiscord and eventually wanted to MAKE more of if.
18:44 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> MC Vanilla kept going more and more in the fluff direction, and I played BTW for a while but my own attempts to expand and mod for it ran into issues with the extremely restrictive licensing.
18:45 Ingar imho, minecraft fun died when bukkit died
18:45 jackdoe Who?
18:45 Ingar bukkit, it was a server-side "mod organizer" and many interesting features
18:46 Ingar so, basicly, mods.
18:47 Ingar (disclaimer: I'm actually still running a vanilla mc server)
18:47 sfan5 "plugins" is what they're called
18:47 Ingar sfan5: right!
18:53 jackdoe Other than Mineclone2, any games you guys can recommend?
18:53 jackdoe What about mods too?
18:55 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> I can always recommend my own game, NodeCore.
18:55 jackdoe Funny. I just downloaded it now
18:56 jackdoe So you made it?
18:56 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> mostly, yeah
18:56 jackdoe I'll be sure to give it a try
18:57 MTDiscord <W​arr1024> I started having help after a while, so some features are contributed by others

22:21 sagax hi all!
22:21 sagax how to hot-reload code from mod?
22:21 sagax without restart game
22:23 MTDiscord <I​hrFussel> Impossible
22:26 MTDiscord <G​reenXenith> There is a mod for hot reloading
22:26 MTDiscord <G​reenXenith> the only thing you cant reload is node registrations
22:28 Verticen joined #minetest
22:28 sagax uff, hard reload for each changes
22:28 rubenwardy it's possible for cod
22:29 sagax cod? what is? english not native for me, sorry
22:29 rubenwardy +e
22:29 rubenwardy code
22:29 rubenwardy you can dofile files to load and run again, you'll need to design it to work well when ran multiple times
22:29 rubenwardy and not have any thing like register_* in it
22:29 sagax hm
22:29 sagax is sound as good
22:30 sagax i want reload code from mod
22:30 sagax hot-reload
22:37 rubenwardy it's not possible to hot-reload without designing the mod to allow that
22:37 rubenwardy and even then, you can only hot reload code
22:37 rubenwardy you can use devtest to get a faster loading time
22:37 rubenwardy it's a game bundled with Minetest
22:37 rubenwardy well, sometimes
22:37 rubenwardy *sometimes bundled with minetest
22:50 sagax hot reload code
22:50 sagax i mean - hot reload code
