07:27 wrrrzr I create new file, and it based on other file. I need to leave comment something like "Based on other.cpp" ?

09:32 sfan5 @teknomunk the engine doesn't have a way to look up objects by uuid either. we'd have to keep a global table of uuid -> position last seen, then try to load the block and see if it's still there

14:48 MTDiscord <herowl> How problematic would it be to allow selectively loading (not activating) or keeping loaded an entity by UUID apart from the block where it is located?
14:49 MTDiscord <luatic> i feel the latter would be likely to break many assumptions and should not be done
14:51 MTDiscord <luatic> though it is not clear to me what "loading but not activating" would entail
14:52 MTDiscord <luatic> either way further overloading the ObjectRef class is definitely not the way to go. it already is a messy mishmash of players and lua entities.
14:52 MTDiscord <luatic> if something like an "offline entity" ought to exist, i think it should get its own, carefully designed interface, otherwise we're asking for trouble
14:53 hwpplayer1 joined #minetest-dev
14:55 MTDiscord <luatic> initially this interface might be as simple as get_staticdata, set_staticdata, migrate to loaded mapblock and activate
15:03 MTDiscord <luatic> if by "loading but not activating" you mean invalid objrefs, i think those would be unsuitable
15:04 MTDiscord <luatic> is there an issue for this to comment on, or should I open an "offline entity" issue? for players there already are related issues.
15:10 MTDiscord <luatic> i will open an issue
15:38 MTDiscord <luatic> #15659
