 Peril | But I think it'd be amazing to be able to hop near seemlessly to another server. | 19:56:02 |
 Michael Knight | yeah i agree it would be awesome to have a world of worlds like matrix is to chat servers | 19:56:21 |
| Michael Knight | 'specially if it is seamless | 19:57:14 |
| Michael Knight | some player just accidentally wanders into your world | 19:57:29 |
| Peril | Well you're probably going to get a loading screen of sorts. | 19:57:37 |
| Michael Knight | that's the most likely thing to happen and why just logging out and going on the other server is good enough for me | 19:58:16 |
| Peril | That's the difference. | 19:58:40 |
| Peril | Right there what you're doing is creating a whole new account. | 19:58:49 |
| Peril | We're saying there should only be one account. | 19:59:06 |
| Michael Knight | a branch of minetest that IS federated would be great though, something where if you're in that universe you're following a protocol | 19:59:16 |
| Michael Knight | right and thats what Veloren is doing | 19:59:26 |
| Michael Knight | and trying to get away from, so there may be reasons for that, i didn't ask them :) | 19:59:38 |
| Peril | I thought you said Veloren had a centralized name db, that's not what we're proposing | 20:00:15 |
| Michael Knight | it's centralized auth | 20:00:25 |
| Michael Knight | where you carry your player name with you | 20:00:42 |
| Peril | We're not proposing that either. | 20:00:40 |
| Michael Knight | oh, i guess i'm confused then :) | 20:00:52 |
| Peril | All you need to take your name with you should be a handshake between the home and the remote server. | 20:01:38 |
| Michael Knight | Oh actually i got that a bit wrong, veloren has central auth but that seperate from character names which are unique to servers | 20:01:56 |
| Peril | Same way as matrix does it | 20:01:58 |
| Michael Knight | i just used the same for all | 20:02:02 |
| Peril | Should be no need to have a central auth at all | 20:07:28 |
| Michael Knight | its an ambitious idea :) better just tie it in with Matrix 😁 | 20:09:50 |
| Peril | I think a tie in with matrix is overkill. You don't need encryption with minetest. At most you might want a basic verification handshake from the homeserver to confirm it's still them but... | 20:13:12 |
| Peril | Pretty sure that's already implemented in the normal client server interface tbh. | 20:13:45 |
| Michael Knight | tie-in doesn't necessarily mean fully integrated | 21:00:05 |
| Michael Knight | or at least i don't think so.. i basically just meant integrate whatever minimum is necessary so that the worlds recocognize you through your homeserver | 21:01:04 |
| Michael Knight | * or at least i don't think so.. i basically just meant integrate whatever minimum is necessary so that the worlds recognize you through your homeserver | 21:01:18 |
| Michael Knight | would be pretty funny though mash all my favorite computer programs togeher, why not. Linux, Matrix, Minetest, its all the same thing now. i get to my filesystem in 3d like in 1990s movies. | 21:02:13 |
| Michael Knight | l33t h4x0rstyle | 21:02:19 |
