08:32 Nigel thanks..
08:32 Ingar only works if you registered an email though
08:32 Nigel I'm pretty sure I did, lets see ;-)

18:06 nepugia Is there a way to use the L-tree system for spawning trees in the map generation=
18:06 nepugia ?*
18:06 sfan5 call spawn_tree inside on_generated?
18:08 Krock register a node as decoration which is then replaced by spawn_tree in the LBM callback

18:48 Wuzzy nepugia: yes
18:49 Wuzzy i would suggest the decoration
18:49 Wuzzy I would use a dummy decoration with a schematic that changes nothing
18:49 Wuzzy Krock: good suggestion, but i wouldnt even register a node for that ?
18:50 Krock why not?
18:50 Wuzzy because its not needed
18:50 Wuzzy i just use an empty shchematic
18:50 Wuzzy pseudo-empty, really
18:50 Krock where do you spawn L-trees then?
18:50 Wuzzy 1×1×1 schematic, 1 node, but its air and placed with probability 0 ?
18:50 Wuzzy its a bit weird but it works
18:51 Wuzzy well the ltrees spawn wherever the decoration would be
18:51 Wuzzy Kray: gennotify is the magic word ?
18:51 Wuzzy Krock: ↑
18:51 Wuzzy sorry Kray, didnt mean u
18:51 Wuzzy Krock: i actually use this in Repixture to spawn villages
18:52 Krock after all you need two registrations anyway
18:52 Wuzzy yes, but no *node* registration
18:52 Krock nodes are cheap. a few bytes to be sent only
18:53 Wuzzy thats not the point
18:53 Krock but gennotify is indeed a nice use of this
18:53 Wuzzy i dont like to litter my codee with fake nodes
18:53 Krock how dare you calling serious registered nodes fake? :P
18:53 Wuzzy sometimes, fake nodes are neccessary but i try to keep htem at absolute minimum
18:54 Krock would be funny to /give them, to spawn trees manually
18:54 Wuzzy but then the nodes would no longer be fake ?
18:55 Wuzzy empty decoration + gennotify is extremely powerful
18:55 Wuzzy but i havent really explored that tbh
18:55 Wuzzy but i believe this is the way to go for a nice l-tree generator
18:56 Wuzzy hmm it would be nice if decorations support a native "empty" decoration. for convenience purposes
18:56 nepugia Wuzzy: I will probably tell the worldgen to spawn saplings, and then use on_generated to spawn trees for some of them
18:56 Wuzzy adding the empty schematic feels hacky
18:56 nepugia I mean, sapplings are excelent to place where trees would be ;)
18:57 Wuzzy just make sure they are not buggy, like, staying saplings forever w/o ever growing
19:02 Pie-jacker875 joined #minetest
19:05 nepugia Well, in some cases they wouldn't grow i guess, like if they dont have enough room :)
19:06 nepugia Although if the abms work they should be able to grow :P, i kind of want to achieve forests that slowly grow
19:06 nepugia or atleast are able to replenish themselves if you chop down trees
