00:26 shaft       Is calling a function that doesn't exist supposed to core dump the whole game?
00:26 shaft       In Lua
00:28 shaft       I tried calling table.find and it doesn't exist. It took me a while to find the line that caused the issue because it made the entire game crash instead of showing a useful message like it usually does.
00:28 shaft       I'm still running 5.7 until a new appimage releases
02:23 Mantar      shaft: that doesn't seem right, under normal circumstances it should give you an error about table.find being a nil value.
15:48 shaft       Mantar: It doesn't though. You can try it yourself. It core dumps the whole game.
15:48 shaft       5.7 though.
15:59 shaft       Okay, if you call table.find() during startup it works fine but if called during runtime it core dumps.

16:04 sfan5       works for me
16:04 sfan5       error even shows in the gui
16:09 jonadab     Are any of the arguments to the function call calculated?
16:10 jonadab     Worst comes to worst, throw the core into gdb and get a backtrace.
17:06 shaft       Not during runtime. Take my birds mod and change find to table.find. https://gitgud.io/blut/birds/-/blob/master/init.lua?ref_type=heads
17:06 shaft       By runtime I mean not during "startup"
17:07 shaft       I know, everything is runtime in a script.
17:44 Bombo       *doh* "Insufficient gcc version, found 6.3.0.  Version 7.5 or higher is required."
18:25 jonadab     Bombo: Heh.  I have a couple of systems that still have 6.x myself.  Although my main system has 10.something.
18:26 jonadab     Oh, the fileserver has 8.x

21:52 Mantar      I'm having an occasional segfault during a minetest.forceload(), gonna try to get a debug trace
21:52 sfan5       try with --debugger
22:36 Mantar      I find attaching the gdb process myself is usually more helpful
22:48 lizzie      is there an event handler, or a way to detect, when nodes of a given type become loaded? (ie, a mapblock goes from unloaded to loaded, that contains that node)
