00:17 Yad        Why is the server-step variable called `dtime`?
00:17 sfan5      delta time
00:17 Yad        thanks :)
00:25 MTDiscord  <MisterE> mikwee, either build your own game using your favorite mods from the content tab, or better, join a server, where someone else has compiled a game for you. Also, be sure to check out our unique games, nodecore and exile
00:25 MTDiscord  <MisterE> if you want a minecraft-like experience that has plenty of content and is not a clone of minecraft, try out Mesecraft
00:25 MTDiscord  <MisterE> if you want a clone of minecraft, try out Mineclone 2 or 5
00:26 MTDiscord  <MisterE> tho, ofc, if you are in the minecraft community, you are here for something that is not minecraft
00:31 Yad        mikwee: I logged in after your message(s), but I would add that a "game" in Minetest is actually a collection of mods
00:34 MTDiscord  <MisterE> he was just saying that he is new here and would like to join our commuinty, but is also staying in the minecraft community. Thats my welcome message ?
03:30 Ned2       hello all
03:31 rubenwardy o/
03:38 MAGNETAR   Hello there
03:39 Ned2       is this a good place to ask questions about compiling?
03:39 rubenwardy sure :)
03:41 Ned2       I have been running from tag 5.4.2-android
03:41 Ned2       but I tried building tag 5.5.1
04:10 Ned2       later!
05:44 Andrew     mikwee[m]: Welcome!
09:07 hlqkj      Hello everyone! It's only me, or mt 5.6 server causes pre-5.6 clients to freeze when it spawn particles?
09:19 MTDiscord  <Fleckenstein> i was autobanned from #minetest for join spam
09:19 MTDiscord  <Fleckenstein> i was restarting my window manager for config and forgot i had IRC client in autostart
09:20 MTDiscord  <Fleckenstein> should have disabled it first
09:24 Andrew     Fleckenstein: Suggestion: Make it possible for your window manager to reload the configuration rather than completely restarting, also use a session manager or a bouncer, etc
09:30 MTDiscord  <Fleckenstein> a lot of people have suggested hot reloading and my WM has that
09:30 MTDiscord  <Fleckenstein> its just that the particular config issue i was working on needed cold reload
09:30 Andrew     Yeah, just do that
09:30 Andrew     Oh
09:30 Andrew     What WM do you use btw?
09:30 MTDiscord  <Fleckenstein> bspwm
09:31 Andrew     Ah, the wm with really nice designs for IPC
09:31 MTDiscord  <Fleckenstein> its pretty clean in general. just manages your windows, nothing else, not like i3
09:32 Andrew     I personally like my fork of dwm, it's more minimal than stock dwm (no bar, no keybindings, but with unix socket control just like bspwm)
09:32 Andrew     And sxhkd
09:56 MTDiscord  <Fleckenstein> oh, nice
11:14 sfan5      @fleckenstein removed you from the ban list
12:02 Andrew     wow this channel's ban list is just a ton of *!*@<random ipv4 address>
12:02 MTDiscord  <MisterE> Can 3d madels be used as particles yet?
12:03 MTDiscord  <MisterE> *models
12:12 sfan5      nope
12:14 mikwee[m]  <MTDiscord> "<MisterE> he was just saying..." <- Yes, this is what I mean
12:14 mikwee[m]  s/mean/meant/
19:17 MTDiscord  <Warr1024> 'a "game" in Minetest is actually a collection of mods' <-- technically true, but slanderous to suggest that all games are soups.
23:29 MTDiscord  <FatalError> nYes
23:29 MTDiscord  <FatalError> You'd have to use entities
23:30 MTDiscord  <FatalError> Preferably you'd use one entity and have a bunch of particles with animations
23:30 MTDiscord  <FatalError> One entity with an animation*
