This change reduces the amount of sent data towards clients. Inventory lists that are already known to the player are skipped, saving quite some data over time.
Raises protocol version to 38 to ensure correct backwards-compatible code.
The "what" parameter is being passed by value, most likely by
accident as the type is "const std::string". Convert it to a
reference by adding the missing "&".
* Fix various bugs (Anticheat, Lua helpers)
Anticheat: Use camera position instead of player position for shoot line calculations
Lua helpers: Increase 'i' to not overwrite earlier added table values
* Remove lag compensation
* * 1.5 for larger selection boxes
* Adds Lua methods 'set_rotation()' and 'get_rotation'. Also changed some method names to be more clear. Instead of an f32 being sent over network for yaw, now a v3f is sent for rotation on xyz axes. Perserved Lua method set_yaw/setyaw so that old mods still work, other wise to set yaw they would need to switch to set_rotation(0, yaw, 0).
This doesn't check the fields in anyway whatsoever so it should only be seen as a way to mitigate exploits, a last line of defense to make it harder to exploit bugs in mods, not as a reason to not do all the usually checks.
* Add session_t typedef + remove unused functions
u16 peer_id is used everywhere, to be more consistent and permit some evolutions on this type in the future (i'm working on a PoC), uniformize u16 peer_id to SessionId peer_id
Implement network communication for channels
* Implement ModChannel manager server side to route incoming messages from clients to other clients
* Add signal handler switch on client & ModChannelMgr on client to handle channels
* Add Lua API bindings + client packet sending + unittests
* Implement server message sending
* Add callback from received message handler to Lua API using registration method
* Implement minetest.register_on_userlimit_check
This new callback permits to bypass the max_users parameter with new mods condition, based on player name or IP
Only one mod needs to permit it.
Move core part for builtin privileges checks to builtin
* Fix HP transport + some double <-> float problems
TOCLIENT_HP transport u16 hp as a u8, use u16 HP, this prevent HP over 255 to overflow across network
* Fix more double/float problem in serverpackethandler & remove implicit struct type for TileAnimationParams
* Fix connection unittests container
* Cleanup network headers
* Move peerhandler to a specific header to reduce compilation times
* Move socket.cpp/h to network folder
* More work
* Network code cleanups
* Move socket.{cpp,h} to network folder
* Move Address object to network/address.{cpp,h}
* Move network exceptions to network/networkexceptions.h
* Client: use unique_ptr for Connection
* Server/ClientIface: use shared_ptr for Connection
* Format fixes
* Remove socket.cpp socket.h from clang-format whitelist
* Also fix NetworkPacket code style & make it under clang-format
* Code modernization: subfolders
Modernize various code on subfolders client, network, script, threading, unittests, util
* empty function
* default constructor/destructor
* for range-based loops
* use emplace_back instead of push_back
* C++ STL header style
* Make connection.cpp readable in a pointed place + typo
* ClientInterface: add a function to verify (correctly) if user limit was reached
CS_HelloSent is a better indicator of active slots than CS_Created, which are session objects created after init packet reception
Switch existing checks to ClientInterface::isUserLimitReached()
Use range-based for loop for getClientIds() used function too
This will fix#6254 (not the memory overhead if init is flooded)
* [CSM] Add flavour limits controlled by server
Server send flavour limits to client permitting to disable or limit some Lua calls
* Add limits for reading nodedefs and itemdefs
* flavour: Add lookup node limits
* Merge get_node_or_nil into get_node.
Sending fake node doesn't make sense in CSM, just return nil if node is not available for any reason
* Add node range customization when noderange flavour is enabled (default 8 nodes)
* Limit nodes range & disable chat message sending by default
* Bump protocol version
* New TOCLIENT_CHAT_MESSAGE packet
* Rename old packet to TOCLIENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_OLD for compat
* Handle TOCLIENT_CHAT_MESSAGE new structure client side
* Client chat queue should use a specific object
* SendChatMessage: use the right packet depending on protocol version (not complete yet)
* Add chatmessage(type) objects and handle them client side (partially)
* Use ChatMessage instead of std::wstring server side
* Update with timestamp support
thread_local permits to limit variable lifetime to thread duration. Use it on each setting place which uses static to cache variable result only for thread lifetime. This permits to keep the same performance level & reconfigure server from MT gui in those various variables places.
Add thread_local to undersampling calculation too.
* Have the server send the player list to the client
Currently the client generates the player list based on the Client active object list, the issue with this is that we can't be sure all player active objects will be sent to the client, so this could result in players showing up when someone run `/status` but auto complete not working with their nick and CSM not being aware of the player
