Looking for a partner

[indriApollo]

Hi fellow developers,

Today I'm looking for a partner willing to work on minetest mods with me.
I usually do everything on my own (shy/introvert u know) but that's time expensive and it forces me to learn a lot of stuff on my own.
So now i grow out of my shell and ask for help :D

About me:
I'm a 18 years old IT-student (Embedded devices) from Belgium. I've already followed programming and network courses for 2 years. Those include html, css, javascript,php,8051assembly and c/c++ (only since a few months) .

I'm also learning lua to play around with the minetest api :)

Who I'm looking for:
- You know lua, or you're still learning but you've already programmed in your life
- You can communicate in english/french/dutch
- You're a nice person (veeeeeery important) :D
- You can tolerate my spaghetti code (and/or show me how to correct it)
- You are regularly available via irc

That's it, I hope someone is willing to work with me :)

Hi fellow developers,

Hello!

About me:
I'm a 18 years old IT-student (Embedded devices) from Belgium. I've already followed programming and network courses for 2 years. Those include html, css, javascript,php and c/c++ (only since a few months) .

OK

I'm also learning lua to play around with the minetest api :)

Me too!

Who I'm looking for:
- You know lua, or you're still learning but you've already programmed in your life - YES
- You can communicate in english/french/dutch - YES (English)
- You're a nice person (veeeeeery important) :D - Absolutely yes!
- You can tolerate my spaghetti code (and/or show me how to correct it) - READY
- You are regularly available via irc - Oh man... NOT (very rarely)

After answering your question, let me introduce myself:
I'm 14-years old from Indonesia (see my signature). I've learned HTML, CSS, JS, PHP (a little bit), and Lua (of course) by myself.

How about it indriApollo?

Hi.
I'm not sure what to say in such topics, so I'll just answer the "questions".

Who I'm looking for:
- You know lua, or you're still learning but you've already programmed in your life
- You can communicate in english/french/dutch
- You're a nice person (veeeeeery important) :D
- You can tolerate my spaghetti code (and/or show me how to correct it)
- You are regularly available via irc

- Yes!
- Yes, 2 of them.
- No, hated by everyone.
- I love spaghetti but they're not useful in codes, so: No!
- Yes, like an addict.

Looks not like a partnership4ever thing.

Thanks for your answers srifqi and Krock.
The thing is, I'm working on a survivalgames mini game where I need player inventory saving/restoring, area protections and other stuff that I don't know and I was hoping for someone that could help me for that :)

[philipbenr]

Sorry I can't help you too much. I am learning myself. Still, I might drop in if I know somethings. Post some problems of yours in this thread as well as on irc, and I'll probably answer it.

[indriApollo]

Thanks philipbenr :)

To save the inventories, I dump an array in a text file and read it later to restore it to the player. Is that the good way to do this ? I wrote some untested code :

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

-- SAVE
local conf_file = io.open(arena_path.."/inventories/"..name.."_inv.txt","w")
local inv = player:get_inventory()
conf_file:write( dump(inv:get_list("main")) )
io.close(conf_file)

-- RESTORE
local inv = player:get_inventory()
local player_old_inv = dofile(arena_path.."/inventories/"..name.."_inv.txt")
inv:set_list("main",player_old_inv)


I also need a way to protect a hole area given by 2 pos and a way to randomly fill chests with content given in a conf file (with max count and chance)

To clarify, I try to reproduce the basic features of this bukkit minigame
