07:33 SwissalpS hi all :) I'm re-working a tool that holds metadata. Is the metaRef still essentialy stored as a serialized string?
07:34 SwissalpS I'm wondering if I save overhead/memory if I use a number from 1 to 8 rather than a string of max 8 characters

13:33 gaelysam hi, in my PR #11953 I don't understand why the last commit is causing build checks to fail

13:36 MTDiscord <Sublayer plank> "Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':native:lintClassPath'."
13:36 MTDiscord <Sublayer plank> huh, odd
13:37 Krock temporary error
13:38 Krock restarted the job. maybe it'll work?
13:39 Krock different error now. it's broken. ignore it.
13:40 gaelysam okay thanks
13:40 gaelysam so I don't have anything to fix?
13:53 Krock I don't think so, no.
13:54 Krock or rather "yes, there's nothing to fix". double negation sucks

15:13 independent56 "<erlehmann> independent56, save it as a schematic, thank me later" Thank you.
15:13 independent56 :p
15:14 SwissalpS is there a way my code can detect which formspec versions are available?
15:15 reddit89 joined #minetest
15:18 SwissalpS lua_api.txt lists the different versions but not from which MT-version they were added
15:21 celeron55 https://github.com/minetest/minetest_docs/blob/413b559f1a49e59c2649eea2835fc7620d407dca/doc/formspecs.adoc#versions
15:21 celeron55 that's from a minetest_docs PR
15:21 celeron55 i guess it's in the wiki somewhere
15:22 celeron55 or maybe not
15:23 SwissalpS thanks celeron55. In rubenwardy's handbook it only mentions when real coordinates were introduced

17:33 SwissalpS I just realized that code can check core.get_player_information(player_name).formspec_version
17:34 SwissalpS that's probably the best way to handle compatibility
17:38 lhofhansl joined #minetest
17:43 Krock SwissalpS: well that's the entire point of it
17:44 SwissalpS might have helped if it's existance was mentioned in the formspec section. Then again, adding mentions everywhere doesn't help overview too much either :)

18:53 MTDiscord <luatic> @j45 "Another client is connected with this name."
18:54 MTDiscord <j45> Thanks
18:55 MTDiscord <j45> Do you know what cpp file that is in?
18:55 MTDiscord <j45> As in what file the error is from

22:16 festerdam Hi, all!
22:16 Yad hi festerdam :D
22:17 Yad What's the function for amending a call of minetest.register_node ?
22:17 Yad I can't seem to find it in my logs or code notes.
22:17 Yad Nor lua_api.txt
22:18 festerdam I noticed that minetest doesn't list any database software as a dependency: https://dev.minetest.net/Compiling_Minetest How do minetest servers store player info?
22:18 Yad festerdam: In .sqlite databases.
22:18 Yad festerdam: Same file format as the map.sqlite which holds the world data.
22:18 SwissalpS Yad: are you looking for minetest.override_item() ?
22:19 rubenwardy festerdam: minetest supports multiple database backends, the default one is sqlite
22:19 festerdam Yad: Wouldn't the user then also have to install some software to interact with the databases?
22:19 Yad SwissalpS: No it's definitely for nodes.
22:19 SwissalpS you pass a table with the fields you want to override
22:19 Yad festerdam: If you want to outside of Minetest itself, yes.
22:20 rubenwardy festerdam: yes, sqlite is a dependency you need to install
22:20 rubenwardy https://github.com/minetest/minetest/#compiling-on-windows-using-msvc
22:20 SwissalpS Yad: yeah, I override node features with it
22:20 Yad SwissalpS: Ooooh, so it uses the word "item" instead of node?! :D
22:20 Yad SwissalpS: I don't see that in my logs either.
22:20 rubenwardy or https://github.com/minetest/minetest/#compile-minetest  rather
22:20 festerdam rubenwardy: Thanks!
22:21 rubenwardy Minetest also supports PostgreSQL and other backends
22:21 rubenwardy https://wiki.minetest.net/Database_backends
22:22 MTDiscord <Jonathon> offtopic: but double images on the forum are sorta annoying
22:22 rubenwardy [place inline]
22:22 rubenwardy doesn't help with older posts
22:23 rubenwardy it would nice if phpbb was clever and looked for [img] tags too
22:23 rubenwardy but alas
22:23 MTDiscord <Jonathon> phpbb doesnt know what clever means lol
