I need help with a mod now |
| 02:24 |
TheInformer |
when i try to do local idx = player:hud_add({...}) it returns "Attempt to index a local 'player' (a nil value) |
| 02:25 |
VanessaE |
if the place in your code that you're doing that command doesn't have player defined (e.g. passed along as part of a callback), well..you get the idea. :) |

look in lua_api.txt, you'll be able to tell (it'll be "placer", "digger", "puncher", or whatever, but they're all just the player object) |
| 02:27 |
TheInformer |
i had this aswell local player = minetest.get_player_by_name() |
| 02:27 |
TheInformer |
and then the above code |
| 02:28 |
VanessaE |
pastebin the full code |
| 02:29 |
VanessaE |
and, for that ^^ call, you have to supply a player name |
| 02:29 |
VanessaE |
(which you almost never want to make up) |
| 02:29 |
TheInformer |
http://pastebin.com/WzBr9N4V |
| 02:29 |
TheInformer |
so "username"? |
| 02:29 |
VanessaE |
no, you can't do that. |
| 02:29 |
VanessaE |
you have to get the player name from a call back or something |
| 02:30 |
thePalindrome |
Most callbacks just give you the player object anyhow |
| 02:30 |
VanessaE |
for example, the above code would probably be best run from within minetest.register_on_prejoinplayer(func(name, ip)) |
| 02:30 |
VanessaE |
er, on_joinplayer rather |
| 02:31 |
TheInformer |
do i need the local player = ...? |
| 02:31 |
|

| 02:32 |
VanessaE |
you're not listening :P |
| 02:32 |
TheInformer |
Sorry |
| 02:32 |
VanessaE |
you have to get the player object from a callback |
| 02:33 |
VanessaE |
from there, get the player name if you need it, but in the case of your code there, player would BE the player object (not the name) |
| 02:33 |
TheInformer |
minetest:player? |
| 02:33 |
VanessaE |
so you need to run your code from inside on_joinplayer or something, and get the player object from there. |
| 02:34 |
TheInformer |
ok |
| 02:34 |
TheInformer |
i tried |
| 02:34 |
VanessaE |
(the lua_api doesn't make it perfectly clear, but on_joinplayer passes along a single item: the player object |
| 02:35 |
TheInformer |
something like this? |
| 02:35 |
TheInformer |
http://pastebin.com/wyC2eUGf |
| 02:35 |
VanessaE |
I'm not sure, but that's close |
| 02:36 |
TheInformer |
that returns unexpected symbol near 'local' on line 2 |

how do i get the name of a node? |
| 03:05 |
TheInformer |
that the player is pointing at |
| 03:09 |
VanessaE |
minetest.get_node(pos).name |
| 03:09 |
VanessaE |
where pos is taken from pointed_thing |
| 03:10 |
VanessaE |
(there's an API call for that, too) |
| 03:10 |
VanessaE |
get_pointed_thing_pos or some such |
| 03:11 |
cheapie |
VanessaE: https://github.com/cheapie/handdryer |

wait what? |

heh |
| 03:11 |
cheapie |
[19:08:19] <VE-Creative> <cheapie> We need some hand dryers to go with these sinks :P |
| 03:11 |
cheapie |
[19:09:02] <VE-Creative> <bulldog1> I agree. |
| 03:11 |
VanessaE |
well, you know lezzy and I were considering renaming Home Decor to "Building Decor"... |
| 03:11 |
VanessaE |
maybe the time has come to do that :P |
| 03:13 |
cheapie |
Maybe. |
| 03:19 |
TheInformer |
does minetest.get_node(pos).name return a string? |
| 03:20 |
VanessaE |
yes |
| 03:20 |
TheInformer |
ok |
| 03:20 |
TheInformer |
thought so |
| 03:20 |
VanessaE |
but generally you want to do something like, local node = minetest.get_node(pos) and then reference node.name later on as needed |

i keep getting this same error "Attempted to index local 'node' (a nil value) |
| 03:36 |
TheInformer |
pastebin.com/xWpPm3cz this is my current code |
| 03:37 |
VanessaE |
does {pos} point to a node that's currently loaded? |
| 03:37 |
VanessaE |
e.g. the mapblock it's in has been loaded t |
| 03:37 |
VanessaE |
-t |
| 03:38 |
TheInformer |
I assume |
| 03:38 |
VanessaE |
don't assume |
| 03:38 |
VanessaE |
where are you getting {pos} from? |
| 03:38 |
TheInformer |
good point... |
| 03:47 |
TheInformer |
so could i use something like this "local pos = minetest.get_pointed_thing_position(pointed, under)" |
| 03:48 |
VanessaE |
if pointed_thing is passed along to your code from the engine, that may work |
| 03:48 |
VanessaE |
you always have to start from the notion of the engine passing things to your code, whether it's the player object, the position of a node, or whatever |
| 03:48 |
TheInformer |
what do you mean? |
| 03:49 |
TheInformer |
oh |
| 03:49 |
VanessaE |
whatever callback it is you run your code from, that's what determines what the engine gives you to work with |
| 03:50 |
TheInformer |
what callback should i use? |
| 03:50 |
VanessaE |
depends on what your code needs to do |
| 03:51 |
TheInformer |
find the name of the block the player is pointed at, for now anyways |
| 03:51 |
VanessaE |
and where, in your code, is the player at when you do that? |
| 03:51 |
VanessaE |
are you running an on_punch? on_joinplayer? |
| 03:51 |
TheInformer |
on_joinplayer |
| 03:51 |
TheInformer |
which wont work |
| 03:51 |
TheInformer |
i think |
| 03:52 |
VanessaE |
what exactly are you trying to do? |
| 03:52 |
VanessaE |
why do you need to know what the player's pointing at? |
| 03:53 |
TheInformer |
So I can display some things on the screen |
| 03:53 |
VanessaE |
so you have what, a node that you need to punch to cause a formspec to open? |
| 03:53 |
TheInformer |
that have to do with the node |
| 03:53 |
TheInformer |
No |
| 03:53 |
TheInformer |
No formspecs |
| 03:54 |
VanessaE |
well whatever it is |
| 03:54 |
TheInformer |
i want it to be automatic where you dont have to punch the node |
| 03:54 |
VanessaE |
so you want to show something to the player as soon as he or she joins? |
| 03:55 |
VanessaE |
or more like if the user walks over a special node or something? |
| 03:55 |
thePalindrome |
Seems to be when they point at the note |
| 03:55 |
thePalindrome |
*node |
| 03:56 |
VanessaE |
you can't just randomly point at a node. there needs to be some action taken to trigger the event |
| 03:57 |
cheapie |
globalstep :P |
| 03:57 |
VanessaE |
globalstep doesn't return anything useful except dtime |
| 03:58 |
cheapie |
But then you can get a list of players, loop through that, and do whatever. |
| 04:01 |
VanessaE |
true, but that's horribly hacky, slow, and you still don't know where the player is and can't determine what they're pointing at, since the latter is client-side |
| 04:01 |
VanessaE |
(that's why there needs to be an event that passes pointed_thing or pos to the code) |
| 04:02 |
VanessaE |
actually I'm wrong |
| 04:02 |
VanessaE |
https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/doc/lua_api.txt#L2931-L2932 |
| 04:03 |
VanessaE |
so you CAN see what the player's pointed at, maybe |
| 04:03 |
VanessaE |
or at least which way they're looking |
| 04:03 |
VanessaE |
then you'll have to calculate which node positions are along that vector, read those, and see if one of them should elicit the "display whatever" |
| 04:03 |
VanessaE |
but globalstep runs only every 1/10th second |
| 04:04 |
VanessaE |
so too slow to catch fast player movements, plus that sort of code would be a CPU hog |
| 04:04 |
TheInformer |
i think on_punch will work fine for now |
| 04:04 |

PureTryOut[m]: there is no consensus on any API right now, and none have been submitted for inclusion |
| 08:25 |
PureTryOut[m] |
so it's not that it's not wanted, it's just that none has been submitted as of yet? |
| 08:25 |
PureTryOut[m] |
seeing as there are some API's in the form of mods, I wonder why none of those authors have submitted a core API yet |

baffy: well one way is the documented way - manually for each mob or just increase the check radius ... a function somewhere in the api.lua ... i guess default is 16 |
| 10:13 |
passant[m] |
i guess it was moved to line 45 some days ago - line 2429 in my case |
| 10:13 |
passant[m] |
i changed it to 64 which gave the general mob spawn a quite good balance |

as you can see in the post it's "Code: LGPL" |
| 22:13 |
sfan5 |
so you need to follow the license terms of the LGPL |
| 22:14 |
TheInformer |
Ok |
| 22:15 |
TheInformer |
So I just have to link the source code? |
| 22:17 |
rubenwardy |
you also have to license your code under LGPL |
