01:18 mtvisitor   tip(s):please remember to upgrade the lua version in the future release of the luanti game engine if possible.

01:20 mtvisitor   as far as i know, the mineunit also only support lua ver5.1. thanks.
01:23 [MatrxMT]   <Blockhead256> it is not possible because we support LuaJIT
01:24 mtvisitor   ok.
01:24 [MatrxMT]   <Blockhead256> LuaJIT is not compatible with 5.2 or higher, and the Lua language 5.2 code is backwards incompatible with running code written for 5.1, for instance the debug library
01:24 [MatrxMT]   <Blockhead256> we cannot expect all of our mod authors to upgrade their mods
01:25 mtvisitor   yes, it seems that will be some problem(s).

01:26 * mtvisitor is reviewing the roadmap of luanti v5.14+.
10:23 [MatrxMT]   <birdlover32767> it would be nice to type ctrl+d or "exit" into the terminal to just have it quit automatically
10:23 [MatrxMT]   <birdlover32767> typing /shutdown into the chat is a bit tiring
10:23 [MatrxMT]   <Blockhead256> you can ctrl-c it
10:23 [MatrxMT]   <birdlover32767> oh ok
10:24 [MatrxMT]   <birdlover32767> apparently i had to move 1 finger down... xd
10:25 [MatrxMT]   <Blockhead256> ctrl-c is standard to kill processes in a terminal (for paste, ctrl+shift+c is often needed because ctrl-c kills stuff)
10:25 luatic      Ctrl + D would be weird for Luanti, all that would do is close stdin, but why should Luanti care - it's not a program that solely processes stdin
10:25 [MatrxMT]   <birdlover32767> i was used to python and lua using ctrl+d to terminate
10:26 [MatrxMT]   <Blockhead256> yes in some interactive programs that's an "end of file" type indication, but Luanti doesn't have terminal interactivity (by default? can't recall what the ncurses mode can do)
10:26 [MatrxMT]   <Blockhead256> *that meaning Ctrl-d
10:26 [MatrxMT]   <birdlover32767> tried typing commands and a print() in and nothing happened
10:27 luatic      birdlover32767: they do not, it's just that if you have an application waiting on stdin, EOF usually lets the program terminate
10:27 luatic      you can try it out right now. make an infinite hello world loop and try to kill it using Ctrl + D, it won't work.
10:28 [MatrxMT]   <Blockhead256> there's also the launch options like --worldname and --go where when you close the world it closes luanti
10:28 luatic      yep. very convenient for quick mod testing.
10:28 [MatrxMT]   <birdlover32767> i used --worldname to try out online stuff on local
