08:29 independent_ Why don't we add bones to dungeons?
08:29 independent_ That would add to the lore of my server. Currently, dungeons are from an aincent civilization. They used to have wooden laddders to the surface, but the ladders rotted away and the surrounding ground collapsed in them
08:29 independent_ Bones would make it seem like they died inside
08:31 independent_ And it would also be cool for others to find, maybe even with the items of the owners, such as a pickaxe, a stack of ladders, and an apple.
08:31 definitelya independent_: It would be a feature request and they aren't allowed for MTG, since it is in maintenance mode.
08:31 independent_ Oh, that makes sense
08:31 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> those dungeons are a mapgen feature
08:31 definitelya Ohhh :0
08:32 definitelya You found a loophole!
08:32 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> ...but mapgens are supposed to be stable right
08:33 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> probably best to just have an additional mod to add skeleton nodes to the dungeons
08:33 definitelya mhm
08:34 independent_ Mhm
08:34 independent_ Makes sense
08:34 independent_ I'll think about working on it
08:35 independent_ And i might as well make a catacombs mod. Between -50 and -100, a system of catacombs exists deep underground
08:35 definitelya ROller: I found this https://content.minetest.net/packages/SFENCE/skeletons/
08:35 independent_ With bone stacks and quarry tunnels all around

12:27 independent_ What's more confusing and easier to get lost in? A series of tunnels with forks going every which way, or complicated interconnections between unrelated tunnels?

18:17 sfan5 I wanted to optimize some code and after a bit of work got its runtime from 19 to 21ms
18:17 sfan5 :(
18:19 Krock task failed successfully
18:44 nisa joined #minetest
18:54 independent56 joined #minetest
18:56 independent56 I think this is the wrong place to ask this, but how do i spoof a high player count?
18:57 independent56 Do i have to get a network of phones to connect?
18:57 independent56 Or can i just hack my client?
18:57 independent56 *server's version of minetest
18:57 sfan5 both of those will work
19:00 independent56 Ah.
19:00 independent56 Do these violate the terms and conditions?
19:01 sfan5 there are no t&c written down so nothing to violate
19:01 independent56 yay!
19:02 sfan5 it only violates good manners
19:02 independent56 Will i get removed from servers.minetest.net on own terms?
19:03 sfan5 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
19:12 Krock independent56: https://iheartintelligence.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/a-man-wheeled-99-smartphones-around-in-a-wagon-to-create-a-traffic-jam-on-google-maps.jpg
19:12 Krock do it like this guy and simulate a busy server with 99 mobile phones
19:12 Krock but don't be an asshole. provide good server content instead.

19:20 MidasTouchHomeco Found it.
19:29 MidasTouchHomeco So this relays to Discord.
19:30 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> yes. hi.
19:30 MTDiscord <Jonathon> possibly
19:31 MidasTouchHomeco Sup.
19:45 Meowie_Gamer joined #minetest
19:53 independent56 > but don't be an asshole. provide good server content instead.
19:53 independent56 No point if nobody finds my server. But i have provided good content. Ever since i rebuilt town hall, retention rates are up.
19:54 independent56 What i want is a baseline number of people to game the ratings and bring me higher, say 5.
19:54 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> the best way to naturally haxx your way up the rankings would be keeping the server up for a long time until you get server age points (I think up to 6 points for 6 months of server age)
19:55 independent56 1/2 per average client, limited to 4
19:55 rubenwardy cheating the server list is asking to be banned
19:55 independent56 Oh, that's sad
19:55 rubenwardy just make a good server, and promote it with events and screenshots and stuff
19:55 independent56 So, with my maths, to get 4 points, i get 8 clients
19:56 rubenwardy make sure it's not just another survival/creative server that will disppear within the year
19:56 independent56 Mine has survived a year
19:56 independent56 And it has become my way of escaping
19:56 independent56 In a age where i can't get booze or weed.
19:57 rubenwardy I feel like so many server owners are like "my server is so unique" and then lists 5 things that every server has, like crafting, mobs, a community center
19:57 independent56 Haha
19:57 independent56 Mine has one of the fastest growing rail networks, i think
19:58 independent56 Others go like "ah yes, three lines, that's enough", and here i am planting wide strokes of proposed track
19:58 independent56 and following them
19:58 independent56 http://56i.duckdns.org/dokuwiki/lib/exe/fetch.php/infrastructure/multimap.png
19:58 independent56 wrong link
19:58 independent56 http://56i.duckdns.org/56i-mtserver-wiki/media/infrastructure/multimap.png
19:59 independent56 See Pr-n2? I am working on that line.
19:59 Krock 451 Not Available in Your Region
19:59 independent56 Pr-w3 is effectively finished up to 3
19:59 independent56 > <Krock> 451 Not Available in Your Region
19:59 independent56 <independent56> wrong link
19:59 independent56 (Also click the link in the error page. It will suprise you)
20:00 MTDiscord <ROllerozxa> haha that's a funny 404 page, albeit a bit frustrating until you figure out the joke :P
20:00 Krock mhm
20:00 Krock change it to 418
20:01 independent56 Ahaha
20:01 independent56 I think that my current one is fine and funny enough
20:01 independent56 "I want to find out more about this stupid law!" "Oh wait."
20:01 Krock I did not find the funny
20:02 ronoaldo joined #minetest
20:03 independent56 Ok, i will tomorrow
20:05 independent56 I'm adding ESC references to the server. It started with the Department of Health's motto being "bit- bit- bitistrava", and now i am naming my stations based on ESC songs
20:06 independent56 "Stefania's Beach" "Holdmeer Close" "Stefan's Hope"

20:54 independent56 Does anyone have nice reference photos of a tunnel turning into a bridge?

20:56 sfan5 like that?

21:01 rubenwardy just googled train tunnel bridge
21:01 sfan5 oh yeah good point
21:02 sfan5 tunnel doesn't have to be under sea
21:03 independent56 joined #minetest
21:12 settl3r[m] Could this (*) be used to create an advanced NPC mod for Minetest?
21:12 settl3r[m] * https://github.com/opencog/
21:14 settl3r[m] ..and both projects could reap fruit from each others, creating synergy..
21:15 rubenwardy true AI in games is almost always ill-suited
