14:51 Meowie_Gamer    im thinking of making a script that automatically compiles and then launches minetest
14:51 Meowie_Gamer    and it would back up your data to bring with you
14:54 Blockhead256[m] is this targetting a specific operating system?
15:07 mmuller         MT/CI/CD? ;-)
15:12 Blockhead256[m] we already have CI/CD.. it's listed under all the pull requests
15:30 Meowie_Gamer    its targeting debian 12
15:30 Meowie_Gamer    because thats what im using
15:37 Blockhead256[m] okay so you would start with something like the 1-liner from the forums
15:37 Blockhead256[m] https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=3837
15:37 Blockhead256[m] what data is being backed up in your version though?
15:44 Meowie_Gamer    yoo it worked
15:44 Meowie_Gamer    im just doing this my way because its fun
15:44 Meowie_Gamer    im bored lol
15:46 Blockhead256[m] lol
15:46 Blockhead256[m] such a minetest thing to work out a different way to compile the game instead of playing it
15:49 Meowie_Gamer    yeah
15:49 Meowie_Gamer    anyways it works
15:50 Meowie_Gamer    it will automatically backup your saves, mods, and worlds, then it will delete the current minetest folder, download the source code again, compile it, then copy the worlds, mods, and games back over, and then run it.
15:50 Meowie_Gamer    what a great use of my time
17:45 Meowie_Gamer    i did it
17:45 Meowie_Gamer    I perfected the updater part of the launcher

17:47 Meowie_Gamer    ^^ that is the updater
17:53 Krock           looks like a perfect place to add a casual "rm -rf ~/" line
