00:09 raisinraisin Hello!  Out of curiosity, what's the point of copper, tin, bronze, and bronze tools?  In every world I've played in so far, I end up making steel tools and never end up making bronze ones, since iron becomes available at basically the same time tin and copper do.  Thanks. :3  (also, I'm relatively new to this type of game, so forgive if I missed
00:09 raisinraisin something)
00:10 specing their purpose is to clutter the crafting guide
00:10 specing and yes, my experience is the same
00:11 specing and the question can be extended to 3darmor as well
00:11 raisinraisin 3darmor?
00:14 raisinraisin Ah, I'm also curious about good methods of not getting lost, and getting back to the surface from diamond-tier depths. |3
00:15 rubenwardy the Minetest Game craft tree is a bit broken
00:15 rubenwardy bronze existed in real life due to a combination of trade routes existing (that connected copper and tin rich regions) and due to technology (making strong iron weapons is harder, I think?)
00:16 rubenwardy by existed, I mean as an age
00:17 specing raisinraisin: do you play singleplayer only?
00:17 MinetestBot [git] An0n3m0us -> minetest/minetest_game: Replace some sounds with new sounds (#2605) befed55 https://git.io/JULn8 (2020-08-29T00:16:36Z)
00:17 raisinraisin specing: so far, yes
00:18 specing raisinraisin: boring
00:18 specing on pretty much all mp servers, the way back is /spawn, /home, the home inventory button and travelnets
00:22 specing raisinraisin: also: ladders and ropes
00:22 raisinraisin good idea, about ladders
00:25 specing ropes are way better, but iirc ladders are in default game
00:35 Hawk777 joined #minetest
00:47 raisinraisin Oh yeah, I'm reminded of a bug (I don't have a GitHub account: if you guys have a mailing list I'll send it in there)  The second line of the debug string, (accessed by F5 by default) which is intended to appear as your position, angle, etc, only shows up right if I start Minetest from uxterm.
00:51 raisinraisin What a coincidence, looks like there've been commits around that lately.
00:51 raisinraisin I guess it makes sense, since it uses a degree symbol.
00:52 * raisinraisin nods.
00:57 raisinraisin Not sure how locale works in C++ but it'd be pleasant if there were strings for display in the C locale and POSIX locale.

11:20 Flitzpiepe Hello everyone
11:54 mangul Doxygen is really useful in such a big project

17:34 specing Minetest performs very poorly on a 160 MHz CPU
17:34 specing 2 FPS :P
17:34 rubenwardy not especially surprising
17:35 rubenwardy you could try optimising it for that hardware by removing a lot of dependency
17:35 specing rubenwardy: is there a no-gui client? Like for chatting only?
17:35 Krock specing: also doesn't work well on 2008 integrated laptop graphics
17:36 rubenwardy there's not
17:36 rubenwardy you can use --terminal if you host the server
17:36 specing the hardware is 3.6Ghz intel, I just limited it to 10%
17:36 rubenwardy or you can find an IRC/Discord bridge

17:57 mangul With what I am trying to achieve, it is possible to have a chat-only client. But many servers kick you if you don't move. And if you set your chat-only client to move or jump randomly, that is cheating I think and not a good idea.
17:58 Krock moving 0.1m in any direction back and forth would be enough
17:58 Krock probably
17:58 mangul Yeah
17:59 mangul But it isn't a good idea to connect a client to a server like rubenwardy's CTF just for chatting.
17:59 mangul Discord/IRC bridge are much better
17:59 Conradish006 When I set the spawn on my server, it doesn't move the respawn location, so you respawn in the middle of nowhere. Anybody know how o fix this?
17:59 rubenwardy ##minetest-ctf
17:59 rubenwardy or the Discord
17:59 mangul rubenwardy, yeah

20:41 Verticen Hey, where is the default texture pack textures located?
20:44 sfan5 by default minetest uses the textures included in the mod or game
20:46 Verticen <sfan5> Yeah. I'm looking for the MTGame textures, where are they? There isn't a MTG folder in .Minetest > games
20:47 sfan5 probably //usr/share/minetest/games then
20:48 Verticen <sfan5> Thank you!
