[Request] Discord support

by Miniontoby » Post

Hi,

It would be nice to have some Discord support for the game

With this I am talking about things like:
  • Discord Rich Presence
  • The ability to join other users when they play on a multiplayer server
  • The ability to get an overlay
  • And the logo of the game on discord when you play it
I hope you guys can try to implement this.

Greets, Miniontoby

P.S. check the docs: https://discord.com/developers/docs/ric ... nce/how-to https://discord.com/developers/docs/gam ... rter-guide

I would assume this is possible using a mod, just like there's an IRC in-game bridge mod. One would have to add it to the secure mods, but it's probably quite possible. However, there's essentially a 0% chance of this specific feature making it into the engine.

Hope so,
as if Discord if officially implemented, I shout down directly mt server and will be gone.

Exactly. What's the point of Minetest being FOSS if it's being infected with proprietary BS?

Let people have the things that they want if they want. Minetest is an open platform, meaning that people should be able to do whatever they want with it, including infect it. Just provided it doesn't get in the way of others.

So if someone wants it, they can and should implement it using a mod.

That's not the point of this thread.

It's about Discord support in core, which fortunately won't happen.

Discord support in core: Absolutely not.
Discord support via a mod: Sure, knock yourself out.

This was actually implemented in PR #7339, but was rejected. I don't think anything like this would ever be merged into the main engine.

Oke thanks for the url, I will check it out and use it myself.

And i might try to make it as a Csm mod (because normal mods cannot/shouldn't be allowed to do that)

Mumble is a better option for voice chat. It supports positional audio for game integration too.

Since this thread got bumped I'd just want to say that I have a patch to implement basic Discord RPC in my personal Minetest buildscript, based off of the ill-fated PR #7339. The buildscript itself is primarily for Arch-based Linux distributions but you can apply the patch yourself to the Minetest source for compiling it yourself.

And other than Discord it’s free software.

There was a PR to add support for Mumble's positional audio to the Minetest engine, but sadly, it never got in. Positional audio would be a great feature for survival servers.
