ireallyhateirc please elaborate |
| 00:10 |
ireallyhateirc |
I have a game with non-standard player scale where 1 node is ~0.5 - 0.55 m |
| 00:10 |
ireallyhateirc |
I make furniture that is more or less real world scale |
| 00:11 |
ireallyhateirc |
but the top of the table does not align with the node grid |
| 00:11 |
ireallyhateirc |
so say the height of the table is around 2.2 nodes |
| 00:12 |
ireallyhateirc |
in order to place some items (nodes) on the table, I'd need to add an offset to the node |
| 00:12 |
ireallyhateirc |
but at the same time there are other nodes that are not meshes in the game that are perfectly aligned to the grid |
| 00:13 |
ireallyhateirc |
say I make a flower pot node and want to place it both on the table and on the floor, then I'd need 2 versions - one with one without the table offset |
| 00:13 |
ireallyhateirc |
erle, got it now? |
| 00:13 |
erle |
yeah got it. unfortunately, that thing is common. |
| 00:14 |
erle |
tbh i'd probably adjust the thing to the grid and make the table 2 nodes |
| 00:16 |
ireallyhateirc |
and then meticulous work with making the scale like IRL goes to hell |
| 00:18 |
ireallyhateirc |
I'll find a way. |
| 00:18 |
erle |
ireallyhateirc i have seen really neat workarounds for these kinds of things, e.g. https://content.luanti.org/packages/AwesomeDragon97/stair_carpets/ |
| 00:18 |
erle |
the big issue here is that placing a node directly on the carpet no longer works |
| 00:19 |
ireallyhateirc |
I could implement some items as entities and make them change offset depending on what they were placed on |
| 00:19 |
ireallyhateirc |
or just the tedious solution - making 2 offset variants of each node that can be placed on a table |
| 00:19 |
erle |
yeah |
| 00:19 |
erle |
i mean that's probably automatable to some extent? |
| 00:20 |
ireallyhateirc |
should be |

<mistere_123> ireallyhateirc: you could make the things on the table objects, which collide with the table's nodebox... if the collision works at that scale |

hey why do i need to select a base game? |
| 02:23 |
erle |
like, what's the issue with it? |
| 02:23 |
erle |
i always wondered why it has to be done |
| 02:23 |
erle |
when i install some mod |
| 02:24 |
MTDiscord |
<wsor4035> dependencies |
| 02:24 |
erle |
because the base game might provide them or not? |
| 02:25 |
erle |
i guess that makes sense |

<Blockhead256> +1 to just avoiding debian's packaging system for mods an games for luanti entirely |
| 03:33 |
[MatrxMT] |
<Blockhead256> this is from a debian user |
| 03:33 |
[MatrxMT] |
<Blockhead256> just use ContentDB |
| 03:42 |
[MatrxMT] |
<Blockhead256> a better use of time would be if someone who regularly compiles from source were to become the debian maintainer |
| 03:42 |
[MatrxMT] |
<Blockhead256> maintaining luanti, luantiserver and minetest-mapper (has that been renamed yet?) |
| 03:43 |
[MatrxMT] |
<Blockhead256> I've seen the debian games team take like 2 months to apply security fixes, and even Debian sid lags the slow release cadence of Luanti |

<wsor4035> just going to cross post to here, if you would like your game jam package pre approved by and editor, make sure it doesnt have the wip label/tag |
