Time Nick Message 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 how is that in any way special? 05:06 MTDiscord (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 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 its a regular cdb account, not github connected 05:08 Blockhead256 Ah yeah you can register direct on the website too 05:08 MTDiscord 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 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 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 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 first time I'm trying to mod MT 20:32 MTDiscord 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 I just want to set use_texture_alphato blend 20:46 FavoritoHJS Why do you want to change that? 20:49 MTDiscord 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 I'll have a look at that, thanks 20:51 MTDiscord oh 20:51 FavoritoHJS fyi I don't know much about this so if i'm totally off track please correct me audience 21:42 MTDiscord looks like that worked but my texture didn't, might be more to it 22:42 MTDiscord what is the order that a voxel area is indexed? what is the order that a noisemap_2d is indexed? 23:13 MTDiscord ok, I see, its zyx 23:39 mazes_80 just received a mail from contentdb: New notification: New comment on 'Moreblocks conflict' 23:39 MTDiscord ok and? 23:40 MTDiscord 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 yeah, its a private thread 23:41 MTDiscord should be in your notifications if you wherent signed in before? 23:41 MTDiscord anyways, it was https://content.minetest.net/threads/3975/
