00:05 sfan5          I guess you can try opening luajit (not lua5.1!) and entering require('socket') to see if it works
04:54 Sven_vB        hi :) I'm new to MT. I have 5.3.0 and an NPC is talking to me. I can select his message with ctrl+a, but how do I copy it to clipboard? neither ctrl+c nor ctrl+ins change clipboard content.
05:21 MTDiscord      <11J​onathon> Npc from which mod?
06:07 Follpvosten[m] I think they want to copy a chat messge?
06:12 Sven_vB        meanwhile I found that what I'm really looking for is called formspecs. I'd like to wire something up so I can have them sent to stdin of a freshly launched custom command (my bash script).
06:13 Sven_vB        I also discussed with a developer of that server and it seems we'll need to extend the client to get this as an accessibility feature
06:25 Scarecrow      speaking of formspecs, is there any facility for forcing a monospace font?
06:26 Scarecrow      oh, looks like there is

08:49 tango_         damnit I keep having troubles finding the chest in dungeons
08:49 tango_         is every dungeon guaranteed to have a chest? are there secret rooms?
08:52 specing        no no
08:53 ryzenda        mtsedit
08:54 ryzenda        I have a question about mtsedit mentioned at https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=23724
08:54 MTDiscord      <11I​hrFussel> ctrl + shift + c seems to work to copy selected formspec text...at least for me
08:55 ryzenda        Using linux environment when I run `mtsedit map.mts` to load a map, it appears blank, and the console shows a bunch of lines "no matching node for #" 0 to 50, a few missing. A lot of defaults are listed though, such as default:desert_stone
08:55 ryzenda        How can I load the map with those nodes to be recognized in mtsedit?
08:56 tango_         specing: so there can be dungeons without chests?
08:59 specing        yes
08:59 specing        and dungeons with 2 chests or more
09:03 tango_         woah
09:03 * tango_       mind blown
09:07 tango_         but this is such a big dungeon, I was really hoping for some meaty prize 8-/
09:07 * tango_       hates specing now
09:07 tango_         8-D
09:07 tango_         OTOH I can move on to the next dungeon
09:08 tango_         but srsly why
10:54 ryzenda        another wiki typo: https://wiki.minetest.net/Mods "Mintest" should be "Minetest" and https://wiki.minetest.net/index.php?search=mintest&button=&title=Special%3ASearch shows a few more typos
11:08 ryzenda        Is it possible to show output of the X,Y,Z lengths of a mts map file?  I want to know how big a map is
11:09 ryzenda        note: I'm new to developing in minetest
11:10 ryzenda        nm, i see #minetest-dev
12:20 MTDiscord      <09w​war> Couldn't find an older version than 5.0 for android.. anyone can help? ?
12:20 MTDiscord      <09w​war> Found one but it was a russian hacked client full with bugs and laggy
12:21 sfan5          https://irc.minetest.net/minetest/2021-01-13#i_5772731
12:22 MTDiscord      <09w​war> Thanks :D
16:41 imi            hi, can I turn the falling of gravel/sand off?
16:41 sfan5          there's no setting but you can edit the code
16:44 imi            I'll use mapedit then
16:44 MinetestBot    02[git] 04Montandalar -> 03minetest/minetest_game: Do not crash when a skeleton key is used on an unknown node (#2806) 1387f6b94 https://git.io/JtU7o (152021-01-15T16:43:19Z)
16:44 sfan5          that seems like a weird way to solve it but use what works for you
21:33 Sven_vB        I'm playing 5.3.0 on Ubuntu focal. is there an easy way to connect the ingame chat console to anything that socat can talk to? e.g. a TTY, or a program's stdio, a TCP server, a TCP client, ...
21:40 Sven_vB        will the LUA chatlog addon work on all servers? I heard some servers would request addons be disabled, and the default client would obey that.
21:42 Sven_vB        oh meh, we really have LUA 5.1 still?
21:44 MTDiscord      <06F​lamore> Pretty sure that by default Minetest logs chst
21:50 Sven_vB        where is the logfile created usually?
21:56 MTDiscord      <11J​onathon> See irc mod
22:18 Sven_vB        thanks!
22:21 Sven_vB        this irc mod? https://content.minetest.net/packages/kaeza/irc/ it says it's for servers. I want to access the chat console of my Minetest client.
22:22 Sven_vB        or maybe I misunderstood the tags
22:24 MTDiscord      <11J​onathon> Oh, client side, sorry i thought you ment server side, sorry
