21:12 jonadab   Children becoming more normal.
21:15 Guest34   hello
21:16 Guest34   there is this werid glitch that when placing a block and you're in the newly place block, you can see through that block and all the solid blocks behind it
21:17 Guest34   that way, I can see where eg. mineshafts are located underground or in a mountain
21:17 MTDiscord <Sublayer plank> ...not really weird, just caused by the way minetest optimizes terrain geometry
21:18 MTDiscord <Sublayer plank> you shouldn't be able to place where you stand though, unless you have explicitly enabled that setting
21:18 Guest34   no settings enabled other than out of the box minetest 5.5-dev
21:18 Guest34   when you are too far inside the newly placed block, it does cause suffocation hurt
21:19 Guest34   but when done carefully, you're only just inside/outside the block and there is no suffocation, but can still see through a great range of solid blocks
21:20 jonadab   There are specific situations in which you can place a block that you're inside of.  It mostly comes up when you're in a small space surrounded by blocks.
21:20 jonadab   I haven't specifically tested whether you can place a block that your *feet* are inside of, but I know you can place one that your *head* is inside of.
21:21 jonadab   A more mundane way to get inside of blocks is, of course, via teleport, if you have that permission.
21:21 Guest34   you can place blocks that you're feet are inside of
21:22 Guest34   btw this is all tested in mineclone2
21:22 Guest34   but I assume that these are engine "features", not mineclone specific
21:22 jonadab   I don't know anything about mineclone2 other than that it exists; everything I've said applies to minetest_game.
21:22 Guest34   not sure if I assume correctly though
21:23 Guest34   lemme try that on minetest_game
21:23 jonadab   And also to Dreambuilder, I believe.
21:23 jonadab   (Which is based on MTG but modified.)
21:32 Guest34   strange, can't trigger it now in either mtg or mcl2
21:33 MTDiscord <Sublayer plank> for me the screen is completely black when being inside of a node
21:33 MTDiscord <Sublayer plank> unless I'm in noclip
21:34 Noclip[m] .
21:35 erlehmann Sublayer plank i have seen this depend on the game i think
21:36 erlehmann but i do not know what the technique was to do it
21:40 Guest34   now I just did it again
21:40 Guest34   maybe you have to be below sealevel or something
21:41 Guest34   I don#t understand yet waht makes it work in some situations, but not others
21:42 Guest34   it's a useful feature, use the powers of noclip without being granted noclip
21:53 Noclip[m] Noclip is unfair.
22:35 Guest34   sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't
22:36 Guest34   sometimes I can put two blocks at 90 degrees and look through both, but they give views that are not contigous wrt eachother
