<MisterE> Is there another option for making nodeboxes easily? I find nodeboxeditor extremely wersome :P |
| 00:05 |

MisterE, maybe you want to try the voxelmodel mod instead? |
| 00:06 |

<MisterE> Oh notthat |

i think it is supercool |

oh ok |
| 00:06 |
MTDiscord |
<MisterE> I want nodeboxes |
| 00:06 |
MTDiscord |
<MisterE> It is supercool |
| 00:07 |
erlehmann |
arguably it fulfils the same purpose as nodeboxes, i.e. look at the bookshelf? |
| 00:07 |
MTDiscord |
<MisterE> But I need nodeboxes for nodes that are for mapgen |
| 00:07 |
MTDiscord |
<MisterE> So they don't lag clients |
| 00:07 |
erlehmann |
oh yeah obv |
| 00:07 |
erlehmann |
sorry then |
| 00:09 |
MTDiscord |
<MisterE> I wish someone would use that and dynamic media to make it so players can make their own 'nodes' in-game without a server restart, tho it would actually be an airlike node with an entntiy |
| 00:22 |
MTDiscord |
<MisterE> I saw a post from 2014 where rubenwardy said that nodeboxes are converted into meshnodes at loadtime. Is this still true? |
| 00:22 |
erlehmann |
MisterE oh wow that is possible maybe? |

<SX> no and for very limited environment like lua controller that most probably wont be very useful |
| 11:36 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> well, of course you can add it but other than that no |
| 11:37 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> oh well, actually sorry. misread a bit. tables exists and some of functions do too but not all listed on roblox docs. |
| 11:39 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> and for lua tubes if you do not return it will timeout and becomes like normal tube for that item, same if you wont return valid value. |
| 11:40 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> item will pass no matter what |

Ahh, makes sense |

I was asking if "if (table.find(items.[event.channel], event.message) != false) then" speicifically would work for my shopping district. Otherwisei willhave to implementit myself, like some scheme programmer. |
| 11:52 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> Regarding making models in Minetest: I'm working on an in-game texture painter. It's fully functional already. |
| 11:53 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> independent56: (1) please don't put parens around the if-clause (unless you intend to omit the spaces) and (2) we only have table.indexof which returns -1 if the element was not found |
| 11:54 |
|
AristotIe joined #minetest |

independent56 |
So if i did "table.indexof" instead of "table.find", would this work? |
| 11:54 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> (3) if you're using modlib, you could do if modlib.table.find(...) then ... end |
| 11:55 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> No it would not work. You'd have to compare differently. |
| 11:55 |
independent56 |
Ahh, thanks |
| 11:55 |

<luatic> ~= -1 |
| 11:57 |
independent56 |
i have "table.indexof(items, event.itemstring) != nil". Will "not (table.find(items, event.itemstring) ~= nil)" work? |

* ~= -1, sorry |
| 12:01 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> what |
| 12:01 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> not (x ~= y) is the same as x == y |
| 12:01 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> where did table.find come from BTW? |

And i'm confused by "not (x ~= y) is the same as x == y". Do you mean ~= and == are the same? |
| 12:04 |
independent56 |
or ... , it is the same as .... |
| 12:05 |

it means "not different" is the same as "equal to" |

<SX> https://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#5.5 and minetest adds function table.indexof(list, val) function table.copy(t, seen) function table.insert_all(t, other) function table.key_value_swap(t) function table.shuffle(t, from, to, random) |
| 12:08 |

<SX> But yes, with lua controllers and lua tubes you have to implement most stuff yourself as those work in very limited environment |

So about the if statmenet... will " if table.indexof(items.[event.channel], event.message) != false then" step into the statment if the item is found? |
| 12:18 |
independent56 |
* != -1 |
| 12:19 |
independent56 |
Actually, let me strip it down: "if table.indexof(items, "default:wood") != false then" return true if wood is found? |
| 12:21 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> Like Luatic stated for Lua != should be ~=. And indexOf returns number unless you changed implementation. |
| 12:25 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> Basically not equals true ~= false and equals true == true and for indexOf indexOf(t, "somthing") ~= -1 means that "something" is there because indexOf return value does not equal to -1 |
| 12:25 |
independent56 |
Ah, so != == ~=, and ~= != ==. |
| 12:26 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> Yes, there's no != operator in Lua at all. Well there is but syntax for Lua is ~= |
| 12:27 |
independent56 |
Makes sense, just like lua begins indexing arrays from 1 or whatever |

Can i search subtables using table.indexof(table.["woodShop"], "default:wood")? I'll show you my table: https://pastebin.com/9LFxNFTf |
| 12:30 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> If you make indexOf recursive but not directly with minetest implementation as it is not recursive |
| 12:30 |
independent56 |
i'm confused. How do i find items in subtables? |
| 12:32 |
calcul0n__ |
a subtable is just a table so what you wrote seemscorrect |
| 12:32 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> function search(value) for key, value in pairs(roottable) do if table.indexof(value) ~= -1 then return key end end end will return table name where your item is |
| 12:33 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> local tablenameforitem = search("default:wood") |
| 12:35 |
MTDiscord |
<SX> or you can implement recursive search for generic use if needed, thing I wrote there works for your pastebin data but is not generic |

<luatic> "which executes when the Boolean expression is false" |

MTDiscord |
<luatic> Sounds like someone blindly copypasted from a statically typed programming language tutorial |

MTDiscord |
<luatic> It should read "which executes when the condition evaluates to something falsey (nil or false)" |
| 14:30 |

<luatic> --[ --] for single line comments? WTH? to they even know the syntax!? |

MTDiscord |
<luatic> do* |
| 14:34 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> --[[ --]] is usually recommended for outcommenting code, as it allows you to quickly change the multiline comment to two single line ones by deleting the [[; but outcommenting code is considered bad practice too |

Does mientest order mapblocks in term of use? i have had slow waiting times at desolate locations, but other places load in a flash. Do the moreused mablock stay closer to Minetest's hands? |
| 16:33 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> Who knows... there's Minetest's mapblock cache, which is simply time-based AFAIK. Your database will maintain it's own cache, so does the OS, and also some hardware... you are most likely profiting off some kind of caching, but it's hard to tell which cache it is ;) |

i have the feeling no one get this part: “choosing 31000 seems logical, but will likely lead to further bugs in exactly the space between ±31000 and the boundaries of s16. I want to eliminate that whole category of bugs by making that space as small as possible and putting it as far as possible from legit mapgen activity.” |
| 16:53 |
erlehmann |
sfan5 btw, fearing that well intentioned devs would think “ah, i'll just MAX_MAP_GENERATION_LIMIT” is the reason why i did not report a bunch of non-crashy boundary condition bugs before. |

https://pastebin.com/24i1fbXx Are there any real errors in my code,except indentation? |
| 21:13 |

It goes down Black instead of red, even with the luacontroller |
| 21:13 |

Sure, “if event.type == "digiline" then” will never fire because it’s inside “if event.type == "item"”, and event.type can’t be both "item" and "digiline" simultaneously. |
| 21:14 |

yep, ends seem misplaced |
| 21:14 |

Oh, thanks |
| 21:14 |

plus indentation errors *are* real errors :) |

Errors to a human parser or computer parser :p |
| 21:15 |
calcul0n__ |
well this error would be obvious with correct indentation |
| 21:15 |
independent56 |
I mean, i wanted to check for digiline after the item has been detected |
| 21:16 |
independent56 |
https://pastebin.com/JgwjKRMT fine now? |
| 21:16 |
independent56 |
It still won't send even when digiline is ok. |
| 21:17 |
Hawk777 |
If you’re trying to do a before/after thing, that won’t work. The code runs from top to bottom for each event. It doesn’t stop in the middle. |
| 21:17 |
Hawk777 |
You’d need to remember somewhere (probably in the mem table) what happened before and check that on subsequent events. |
| 21:18 |
Hawk777 |
AFAICT this code *should* send an “item” message every time an item passes through, and send all items in the black direction (because it returns black on an item event because an item event is not a digiline event, and it returns red on a digiline event but a digiline event isn’t an item event so the return value is ignored). |
| 21:18 |
independent56 |
I'm getting a metophorical headache |
| 21:19 |
independent56 |
How do i send a message down digiline, then when the device at the end sends a message through to the pipe, send the item down red, but if the device at the end does not send digiline, send item through to black? |
| 21:20 |
independent56 |
https://imgur.com/a/MmgoXAh This is my setup |
| 21:21 |
independent56 |
if event.type == "digiline" then |
| 21:21 |
independent56 |
digiline_send("item","") |
| 21:21 |
independent56 |
end is inside the controller |
| 21:22 |
Hawk777 |
You can’t do that, because item routing is decided instantly. By the time the device at the other end of the digiline replies, the item *has already been routed*. It’s too late. If you have fixed routing decisions, you could make the remote device send the routing decision earlier and the tube remember it. If you need to decide based on item type, you can either put the intelligence in the routing tube itself (e.g. give it a ro |
| 21:22 |
Hawk777 |
g table of items and where to send them, potentially in what quantities, rather than only remembering one direction), or else have an earlier tube send a report of the approaching item to the remote system, giving it time to instruct the routing tube what to do with it before the item arrives. |
| 21:22 |
independent56 |
Oh, makes sense. |

Thanks |

I need to rethink my setup |

is there really an event.itemstring? i use event.item.name |
| 21:28 |
independent56 |
Oh wait, that function no longer exists? |
| 21:29 |
independent56 |
https://pastebin.com/13Lzaw1m It says in the docs |

i don't know but i've never seen that |
| 21:30 |

maybe some outdated doc? |
| 21:30 |
independent56 |
I can't belive it's in the offical wiki |
| 21:31 |
Hawk777 |
Doesn’t the later controller need to not just return the message, but remember it and return the value later when the “item” event appears? As written, the later controller only returns a string on a “digiline” message; AFAIK Lua controlled tubes don’t have “sticky” routing, that is, they don’t remember previous return values, you have to return the direction you want on the item event itself. |
| 21:32 |
independent56 |
Even a "if event.type == "item" then return event.message end" won't work. Is the event table overwritten? |
| 21:32 |
Hawk777 |
Yes, each time the code runs, the event table pertains to the specific event being handled. The previous event is gone. |
| 21:32 |
Hawk777 |
So when you’re handling an item event, the old digiline event is gone. |

OK, not sure what the problem is at this point, but other than names or that sort of thing, that’s what I would expect to work. |
| 21:35 |

Could you recreate it on your machine to make sure this problem isn't part of my server? |
| 21:35 |

remember the whole code is executed for each event |

I don't think pipeworks is up to date on my server |

I'll update it. |
