05:03 Blockhead256 Hi I have a question about organisation-level mods and ContentDB
05:03 gry what is your question
05:04 Blockhead256 We at AdvTrains Supplemental want to get our mods onto ContentDB, hopefully soon, but MBB the original author isn't around to post them himself.
05:04 Blockhead256 I know mt-mods has e.g. https://content.minetest.net/packages/mt-mods/technic_plus/ but how is that published, with a special user account?
05:05 MTDiscord <Jonathon> how is that in any way special?
05:06 MTDiscord <Jonathon> (its not), but im curious why you think that
05:06 Blockhead256 My point is I would prefer it such that the maintainership of stuff can change easily. Also, mt-mods is a GitHub organisation not a GitHub User, so how is it authenticated to ContentDB?
05:07 MTDiscord <Jonathon> ah, you linked to a package rather than the user. its just a normal account that everyone in mt-mods has access to
05:07 Blockhead256 I would prefer to not have to password-share a GitHub account in order to post/maintain stuff
05:07 MTDiscord <Jonathon> its a regular cdb account, not github connected
05:08 Blockhead256 Ah yeah you can register direct on the website too
05:08 MTDiscord <Jonathon> you can set up an account like mt-mods, and then under maintainer for packages add specific cdb accounts so they can make edits
05:08 MTDiscord <Jonathon> without needing to log into the org account
05:09 Blockhead256 OK then, so it sounds like I will need to set up an org account and add maintainers like my personal account and that of friends.. cool thanks
05:09 MTDiscord <Jonathon> for actual org accounts, see https://github.com/minetest/contentdb/issues/366
05:09 wsor you can do it however you would like
05:09 wsor if its purely mbb version, cdb staff can add the package as them
05:09 Blockhead256 I guess I'll have to pinky promise not to go away long term or refuse to add people or whatever, but that's policy
05:10 wsor cdb staff can also fix that
05:10 Blockhead256 Nah we're talking about recent versions that live at https://notabug.org/advtrains_supplemental not the MBB originals
05:10 wsor i figured as such. as long as they meet right to a name, you should be fine
05:10 wsor https://content.minetest.net/policy_and_guidance/ section 3.1
05:12 wsor i suppose i should say that notabug isnt really that stable of a platform. otherwise 🤷
05:12 Blockhead256 yes I think we can establish the right to a name, given MBB is long term/permanently away, and agreed to license the content properly so we can redistribute it
05:13 wsor im aware, just posting in case/anyone else who reads this later

20:28 MTDiscord <MikeNight> fluxionary how do I redefine a node from moreblocks, for example glow_glass, it doesn't look like the api supports that right?
20:28 MTDiscord <MikeNight> first time I'm trying to mod MT
20:32 MTDiscord <MikeNight> I guess that I can't use register_with_stairs() since it's local https://github.com/fluxionary/minetest-moreblocks/blob/bugfixes/moreblocks/nodes.lua#L343
20:36 FavoritoHJS what do you want to do?
20:40 MTDiscord <MikeNight> I just want to set use_texture_alphato blend
20:41 proller joined #minetest
20:46 FavoritoHJS Why do you want to change that?
20:49 MTDiscord <MikeNight> So I can use textures with alpha channel
20:50 FavoritoHJS oh, so you want tranclucent texture support... Maybe `minetest.override_item()` would work?
20:51 FavoritoHJS Keep in mind though that translucency is always buggy
20:51 MTDiscord <MikeNight> I'll have a look at that, thanks
20:51 MTDiscord <MikeNight> oh
20:51 FavoritoHJS fyi I don't know much about this so if i'm totally off track please correct me audience

23:39 mazes_80 just received a mail from contentdb: New notification: New comment on 'Moreblocks conflict'
23:39 MTDiscord <Jonathon> ok and?
23:40 MTDiscord <Jonathon> if your wondering why your getting those, its probably because you have the setting enabled
23:40 mazes_80 I couldn't access thread because I was not logged in, my bad
23:40 mazes_80 so nothing now
23:40 MTDiscord <Jonathon> yeah, its a private thread
23:41 MTDiscord <Jonathon> should be in your notifications if you wherent signed in before?
