03:26 ensayia     is there a function to make an item drop into the world, like a player would drop an item, that can be picked up by clocking?
03:28 ensayia     an ItemStack I suppose
03:55 MTDiscord   <kimapr> minetest.drop_item i think
04:12 ensayia     I got the behavior I wanted out of .add_item but thank you for responding
04:24 ensayia     If I want to give an item to a player, but drop it on the ground if the player's inventory is full, I have a function to check that and add the item or spawn it. The trouble is that my item has a max stack of 8, and if I have some in my inventory it only checks for open spots, not if any of the stacks are able to be added to.
04:26 ensayia     So I can have one stack of 6 of the item in question, and if I add_item, but have no open slots, it does not make it to 7, it sees there is no room. Do I need to iterate over every stack in a player's inventory to do it properly?
04:47 ensayia     I swear, it's like magic. I ask a question here and like 20 minutes later find the answer all on my own.
04:48 ensayia     Thank you, mostly silent community, for being my rubber ducky.
04:59 MTDiscord   <kimapr> if you want to give items to player you can use handle_node_drops
09:18 sfan5       ensayia: I'm pretty sure InventoryRef:add_item() checks for stackable items properly
09:18 sfan5       the standard way is to call that and if you have a non-empty stack left over call minetest.drop_item on it

20:20 ensayia     sfan5, I was trying to give the player an ItemStack instead of just an item, doing the latter produced expected behavior
23:49 Teckla      I have both Minetest 5.4.1 and 5.6.1 installed (separate directories).  Is there a way to copy my worlds from 5.4.1 to 5.6.1?  Copying the worlds directory alone appears to be insufficient.
23:50 MTDiscord   <MisterE> Try upgrading in order. I believe 5.5 had a feature of changing the world format
23:50 Desour      you have to have the subgames and mods installed
23:53 Teckla      Ok, thank you MisterE and Desour :)
