01:42 MTDiscord <MisterE> just curious... one use case would be to make an object-based menu
01:42 MTDiscord <MisterE> inworld, like a floating ui
01:42 MTDiscord <MisterE> but just visible to one player
02:04 MTDiscord <Jonathon> you can already do that with dynamic media

11:13 sfan5 dynamic media is not the fix for everything
11:13 sfan5 anyway: yes the server could send an entity to just a single player
11:28 calcul0n_ joined #minetest
11:36 MTDiscord <SX> maybe sending entities to just selected players would be a samll step towards network bubbles too

14:37 MTDiscord <SX> I've fixed this "engine feature" on few mods, player is available but not complete anymore.
14:37 hook54321 joined #minetest
14:38 MTDiscord <SX> So player variable check passes, also methods do work but return crap
14:40 MTDiscord <SX> Basically if not player or not player:is_player() then is not enough, you have to check every access. This however happens only during certain specific circumstances and I've not investigated root cause so no idea but I've verified that for example player instance is valid, it has methods but for one player:get_meta() returns nil
14:41 MTDiscord <SX> Basically player instance is available but engine does not anymore have complete data, player instance is crippled.
14:41 rubenwardy did the player leave?
14:41 rubenwardy The reference may have been invalidated
14:41 rubenwardy this shouldn't happen during a callback though
14:41 MTDiscord <SX> https://github.com/minetest-mods/stamina/pull/38
14:41 rubenwardy only when storing a player ref and using it eg: in minetest.after
14:41 MTDiscord <SX> There's one of those fixes
14:42 rubenwardy yeah, that's an invalid ref
14:42 MTDiscord <SX> As I said I've not investigated but it seems to only happen during entity step
14:43 sfan5 players do not have an entity step tho
14:43 MTDiscord <SX> They don't but you can look for players during entity step.
14:44 sfan5 true
14:45 sfan5 it'll depend on how you're doing that
14:45 MTDiscord <SX> Oh actually also possibly another place: on punch callbacks
14:46 MTDiscord <SX> And it happened multiple times when CSM crashed client, but I've no idea about CSM code
15:06 GNUHacker This is a bug that cause many server crashes (server version 5.4.1), dont close this issue: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/8452
15:16 sfan5 the issue reporter says it does not happen anymore and the steps in the issue are not enough
15:16 sfan5 if you can still reproduce it you can open a new issue with reproduction steps
15:26 MTDiscord <SX> On that issue wondering what "async callback involved" actually means... if it is keeping ref in variable and using through minetest.after or similar then it is invalid.

20:15 independent56 What is the most effective downwards way to mine? I need diamonds at -1024, but i am only at  -265. Do i continue my 2*1 hole?
20:18 independent56 I will use water instead of a ladder
20:19 independent56 Ooh, it has better stopping power
20:21 erlehmann independent56 minetest does not check downwards falling speed. get a cheat client and an autominer, that is the most efficient.
20:21 independent56 I'm on a singleplayer game; i donot want to cheat
20:21 Pexin manipulate worldgen. this is Best Way
20:21 independent56 I am getting diamonds for digtron, my preferred auominet
20:24 erlehmann independent56 are you on linux?
20:24 Pexin landscape composed entirely of diamondblock, and no materials to make adequate pickax
20:24 erlehmann hahaha
20:25 erlehmann independent56, with the linux program xdotool you can make minetest think that you are holding the mouse button continuously
20:25 erlehmann then just sit back and relax
20:25 erlehmann i mined a bunch of obsidian that way a few days ago lol
20:25 Pexin until you eeach a tall empty cavern andSPLAT
20:26 Pexin or pickax breaks
