Time Nick Message 04:01 MTDiscord Ahem 04:01 MTDiscord Potatoes 04:01 MTDiscord Thank you, thank you 06:12 BruhMoment Hi! I just got into using Minetest as a game engine. I'm just curious what its limitations are compared to other game engines? 06:14 Blockhead256[m] Minetest doesn't have the best graphics capabilities and doesn't have extended libraries for things like NPCs/AI (though it does have pathfinding) 06:15 Blockhead256[m] aside from world generation, most tasks run in a single thread, including most mod code, though we do have the async task runners nowadays with a limited environment 06:16 BruhMoment Ah, I see. Thanks! 06:16 Blockhead256[m] if something isn't provided by the Lua API, then odds are you will need to patch the engine. Hopefully not on the clientside, becaue that defeats the "killer feature" of being able to join any server 06:17 Blockhead256[m] and of course it's really only good for making block games or ones based on a grid at least 06:17 Blockhead256[m] can't say much more than that because I don't really have experience with the common game engines like Unity, Unreal, godot 12:13 sfan5 worth mentioning that with MT you usually don't package your game with the engine (as one thing you install), rather people install Minetest and then grab your game 13:00 MTDiscord Also worth mentioning that minetest is built for games of the Minecraft paradigm; other games may be hacky or restricted to implement, though it is certainly possible to make other games (see glitch, blockbomber, little lady 13:07 MTDiscord Heh, even those may be hacky to implement, depending on what you want to do 16:38 lsab Hi. I'm founding a error with itemframes: 16:38 lsab ERROR[Main]: Ignoring out-of-bounds argument escape sequence in tranlation 16:38 lsab but not shows in debug, just in the screen 16:40 Blockhead256[m] what language do you have minetest set to? is this an item frame mod for minetest game or mineclone? 16:41 lsab I have to setting up to portuguese pt-br.
