This causes blocks in front of the player to be rendered sooner and
blocks in the periphal view (that would soon be out of view) a bit later.
Overall this leads to smoother rendering as the player is moving around.
Formspec input for each individual noise parameter and flag.
Allow noise flags to be set in advanced settings, previously only settable
in minetest.conf.
Standardise 'group format' for noise parameters set in minetest.conf, as
only these support noise flags. However the older 'single line' format is
still accepted to support existing minetest.conf files.
Therefore auto-generate minetest.conf.example with noise parameters in
'group format'.
Setting 'type' in settingtypes.txt is now either 'noise_params_2D' or
'noise_params_3D', the dimension number is displayed in the advanced
settings edit page.
This helps retrieving the right set of blocks when the player is falling,
traveling on cart, or in general traveling in a direction different from
the view direction.
Necessary for placing the base cube of 'plantlike_rooted' drawtype in the
seabed instead of on it.
Useful for placing decorations sunk into, or buried in, the ground.
For solid nodes, the lighting at a corner becomes face-dependent, which
means that only the four nodes in face-direction contribute to the
lighting (getSmoothLightSolid).
For special nodes, which use the lighting values at the eight corners of
a node, the lighting is not face-dependent, but certain nodes of the
eight surrounding nodes of a corner (here indices 4, 5, 6 and 7) can be
obstructed.
Ambient occlusion now also occurs for solid nodes, if two, three or four
of the four nodes in face-direction are solid.
In some cases NetworkPacket was created using default constructor and m_data is not properly sized.
This fixed out of bounds memory copy
Also use memcpy instead of std::vector affectation to enhance packet creation
If 'param2_max' is not used, parameter 'param2' works as before for
compatibility.
If 'param2_max' is used, 'param2' and 'param2_max' become the lower
and upper bounds of a per-decoration random param2.
Increase scrollrate depending on fontsize
Scroll on mousewheel
Allow scrolling and marking text on non writable textareas
Update lua api about readonly mode
Show scrollbar if text overflows
If either of the 2 noise parameters are omitted the ore will occur from y_min
to y_max in a simple horizontal stratum. As this does not compute noise
performance improves, and is ideal for placing many layers.
Clean up some nearby ore documentation.
* Make Player::peer_id server-side only and add getters and setters
Player::peer_id has no sense client side, move it to server, make it private and add setter and getter
Also add some PEER_ID_INEXISTENT instead of harcoded 0
* Add no_static_save property to luaentites to not save them statically.
This allows for temporary objects that would get deleted anyway as soon as they are loaded again without the static saving overhead.
* Use positive meaning for static_save object property
* Invert meaning also for the LUA parameter
Note: getboolfield() does not change &result when field does not exist, so it defaults to the default value in the header file, which is 'true'.
* Extend push_object_properties()
* 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
* Update JsonCPP to 1.8.3
* Fix deprecated functions
Json::FastWriter, Json::StyledWriter and Json::Reader are marked deprecated since 1.1 and are deprecated in 0.8 but not shown at compilation time.
Use new methods to serialize/deserialize
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
Change OpenAL distance model from AL_INVERSE_DISTANCE to
AL_INVERSE_DISTANCE_CLAMPED to avoid excessive volume when very close
to the sound location, for example MTG doors, and MTG fire sounds which
are combined at an average position and often located in air nodes.
Because AL_REFERENCE_DISTANCE has been reduced to 1 node (the distance
under which gain is clamped), multiply volume by the same factor to keep
sound gains the same as before, since the gain is calculated as:
gain = (AL_REFERENCE_DISTANCE / distance)
Feature is unnecessary and would greatly complicate future development,
it would also make 'get biome at pos' extremely complex.
Mgv7: Revert option to repeat surface biomes in floatlands, which
depended on the above.
Error was exposed by commit a1389c38658fe69c3bd25c3099bae9a4e51ed401
'nplaced' was not set to U16_MAX when biome 'stone' was placed, so when
biome was recalculated in a column of stone, the 'nplaced' value
caused a few remaining filler nodes to be placed.
Occurs when the lower biome has a deeper depth of 'top' plus 'filler'
than the upper biome.
For 3D noise tunnels only, replace unsupported biome 'top' and 'filler'
nodes in tunnel roof with the defined biome 'stone'.
This makes terrain created by 3D noise tunnels consistent with the rest
of mapgen, which does exactly the same in this situation.
The 'glow' value is added to the ambient light value.
Negative 'glow' disables light's effect on object colour, for faking
self-lighting, UI-style entities, or programmatic colouring in mods.
Dig prediction allows clients to remove dug nodes without
waiting for server acknowledgement.
This patch allows mods to override dig prediction,
it can either be turned off or a different "prediction node"
can be selected.
For precise control of schematic vertical position relative to the
'place_on' node.
Avoids workarounds that add empty nodes to a schematic and therefore
reduce performance.
Also remove long-unused decoration cutoff code.
* 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
Creates a single undulating ore stratum that is continuous across mapchunk
borders and horizontally spans the world.
Due to being continuous is ideal for creating bands of alternative stone
type running through cliffs and mountains, or underground layers.
Add missing documentation of 'ore_param2' parameter.
* Fix animation frame_speed and blend loosing precision due to incorrect data type
Add lua function set_animation_frame_speed to update the frame speed without resetting the animation to start
* 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
* Formspec: Add options to set background color and opacity (fullscreen mode)
* Enhance previous comment: Set formspec background when regenerate UI.
* This permit to do the calcul only at regen and override it with bgcolor tag
* Add a setting for default background color into formspec, separated from fullscreen
* Add a little performance gain on formspecs using a const ref instead of copying formspec string
* Refactor clientevent structure
* Move structure outside of client header
* Create client events on heap not stack, this remove the ClientEvent object copy
* Use clientEventHandler to route events
* Alternative code for slipping
- does not depend on frame rate
- controllable via environment variables for now
* Adjust slipping speed for item entities too.
* Final version of framerate-independent slippery code
* Remove dead code and fix formatting
* getStandingNodePos should only look 0.05 nodes downwards
This ensures that, even if the player is standing on a partially
filled node, this node is used as the standing node and not the
node below it.
Specific use: enables slippery slabs
* Exchange global getStandingPosNode change for local inline change
Reverts previous commit
* Revert the item movement changes
* Slippery nodes now slip over cliffs and edges
Players no longer suddenly stop before falling off.
Also refactored slippery code into getSlipFactor method.
* Slipping over an edge gated by player's is_slipping state
A new flag for just this case, to reduce costly node lookups in
the normal case of leaning over a non-slippery edge.
Public access for consistency and potential future uses.

* Fix many SharedBuffer copy (thanks to delete operator)
* Setting: Safe digging and placing
* New setting 'safe_dig_and_place' under Controls
* If set, digging and placing will not auto-repeat
* Releasing buttons unblocks the respective action again
* Useful for inexperienced users in creative mode where default
repeat times may be too short
* Safe placing (right click repetition) does not need a guarding flag
* Added new setting to minetest.conf.example

* Also fix NetworkPacket code style & make it under clang-format
* Respect object property hp_max field for players
This allows modders to configure the maximal HP per player
* Statbars: Downscale bar to full 20 HP when exceeding this value
Add default max HP for players and breath constants to builtin
Document the constants
* Rename PLAYER_MAX_HP -> PLAYER_MAX_HP_DEFAULT
the BS constant
implicitly promotes all position calculations it is used in to double even
though positions (= v3f) are only meant to be floats.
There are many, many similar occurrences everywhere, but I'm not willing to
hunt down all; I only fixed the little part I'm already familiar with.

When minetest is launched, if there was no nameprovided in
configuration or parameters, the game would not show any error in
console. if the --go parameter was also prowided, the game would
exit without an error. This is undesired behavior, so this merged
commit add the missing function that displays the missing error
message in console.
Gives starting singleplayer games this subtle "dawn of a new world" feel.
I would have set it even earlier (up to 4:45am), but I was worried that in
some pre-existing games the player could be overwhelmed by hostile
mobs right at the start, seriously changing gameplay.
It's just the default, individual games should be able to override it, and
for public servers it's irrelevant anyway, because only the first player to
set foot in the world will notice, and that's usually the server admin.
Another small general problem: the player is always standing exactly on the
bondary between 2 nodes e.g. Y=1.5 is exactly between nodes Y=1 and Y=2.
floatToInt() and myround() will round +/-n.5 always 'outwards' to +/-(n+1),
which means they behave differently depending on where you are: they round
upwards above sea level and downwards when underground. This inconsistency
comes from the way the coordinates are calculated, independent of the
specific C++ code.
The result is a tiny bit of lost performance when moving underground,
because 1 node level more than necessary is checked for collisions. This can
be amended by adding a tiny offset to minpos_f.Y, like @paramat suggested.
This is not an elegant solution, but still better than wasting CPU.
To determine the area (nodes) where a player movement took place
collisionMoveSimple() first took the old/new player coordinates and rounded
them to integers, then added the player character's collision box and
implicitely rounded the result. This has 2 problems:
Rounding the position and the box seperately, then adding the resulting
integers means you get twice the rounding error. And implicit rounding
always rounds towards 0.0, unlike floatToInt(), which rounds towards the
closest integer.
Previous (simplified) behavior: round(pos)+(int)box, for example player at
Y=0.9, body is 1.75m high: round(0.9)+(int)1.75 = 1+1 = 2.
==> A character's height of 1.75m always got rounded down to 1m, its width
of +/-0.3 even became 0.
Fixed by adding the floats first, then rounding properly: round(pos+box) =
round(0.9+1.75) = round(2.65) = 3.
Construct dungeons from the node defined as biome 'node_stone' if
'mapgen_stone', 'mapgen_desert_stone' and 'mapgen_sandstone' are not
detected.
Feature long-intended by kwolekr/hmmmm and present in code as a TODO.
Move point at which light is sampled up to 0.5 nodes above foot level,
to avoid that point sometimes passing into the node below causing the
model to go dark.
The getBackgroundBrightness() function detects darkness in the view direction
to decide when to make the skybox dark. The volume checked was too narrow and
missed the left and right edges of the view, too easily causing a dark skybox.
Widen the checked volume to match a FOV of 72 degrees and a 16:9 aspect ratio
game window.
Remove usage of the SharedBuffer in zlib compression which has two problems:
* We copied the whole memory block to compress it (not good with mapblocks)
* We copied sometimes strings to SharedBuffer to SharedBuffer (2nd time)
Use this method in MapNode::serializeBulk + optimize serialization but merging 3 identical loops in a single loop
correctBlockNodeIds does 2 lookups for each loaded node, one to translate DB ID to name and a second to translate name to real ID. Name to real ID is very consumming if done on every node. As mapblocks are in most cases composed of many identical adjacent nodes, cache previous source and destination id and use them on the next node to prevent any lookup on those maps.
This reduce the function load from 15% of my CPU usage to ~0.7%, on the test, calls was reduced from 2.5M lookups to 42k lookups, it's a huge performance gain
* TileLayer: use shared_ptr for vector framespec
This reduce memory copy of TileLayer from (4 to 16) * FrameSpec where FrameSpec = (sizeof(int) + 3 * sizeof(ptr)) to int + sizeof(ptr)
Callgrind difference

* Fix one push_back to use vector::emplace_back & optimize inclusions
* VoxelManip cleanups (const ref, const move) permitting to improve a little bit performance
* VoxelArea: precalculate extent (performance enhancement)
This permits to reduce extend high cost to zero and drop many v3s16 object creation/removal to calculate extent
It rebalance the client thread update to updateFastFaceRow instead of MapBlockMesh generation
This will also benefits to mapgen
Allows setting of the mountain 'zero level' (y where density gradient is zero).
It is easy to vertically shift smooth terrain by editing noise parameter 'offset',
but vertically shifting mountain terrain was complex and imprecise, involving
making a calculation based on an average of the mountain height parameter.
Ensure in-cloud fog is always stronger than outside-of-cloud-fog even when
using a small view range.
Also limit in-cloud fog range to a maximum of 32 nodes to keep it fairly
strong when using a large view range.
The change from 800x600 to 1024x576 (16:9) was a reduction in height which caused
user interface to become smaller.
Continue to use width 1024 as it is a common small screen width.
* [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
Spawn player 1 node higher to avoid spawning waist-deep in a possible
biome 'dust' node, such as tundra snowblock.
Tune default offset to spawn players in a more interesting location on the
mandelbrot sets, on a raised area that looks like a spawn platform.
Tune julia parameters to help avoid spawn search failing, especially for
fractal 6.
For consistency return to 'FPS =', add comma before FPS.
Remove 'R' from 'range_all' as may be re-keymapped.
Remove inconsistent brackets from 'range_all'.
Change 'v_range' to 'view_range'.
Add 'pos = ' before co-ordinates.
Add spaces around '=' in yaw display.
Remove brackets from around 'yaw' and 'seed'.
Move 'pointing_at' to 3rd line.
Remove 'param1' (0 for all solid nodes and unreadable for light sources due to
light bank encoding).
Remove file name of pointed node top tile (this also removes the need to get
ContentFeatures for the node, slightly improving performance).
Replace quotes around node data with brackets, looks better and more consistent.
Add 'guitext3' for third line.
Use 'setVisible' for all 3 lines to control the setting of each text rectangle.
Improve logic of 3rd line to only run code it needs to depending on whether
pointing data is avaialble and whether node is not 'ignore' and not 'unknown'.

Add 'biome_zero_level' argument to 'generateBiomes()', 'deco_zero_level'
argument to 'placeAllDecos()' and 'ore_zero_level' to 'placeAllOres()'
to allow mapgens to vertically shift the registered biomes, decorations
and ores per-mapchunk.
Will also allow many realm possibilities in future mapgens.
Useful for underwater plants.
Node consists of a base cube plus a plantlike extension that can pass through
liquid nodes above without creating air bubbles or interfering with liquid flow.
Uses paramtype2 'leveled', param2 defines height of plantlike extension.
This commit introduces Raycast, a Lua user object, which can be
used to perform a raycast on the map. The ray is continuable, so one can
also get hidden nodes (for example to see trough glass).

Commit cad10ce3b747b721fd63784915e05f12bc488128 altered the parameter
'float_mount_height' but was missing the necessary line in the constructor
to get the altered value from 'params'.
Fixes 3D floatland terrain generating everywhere.
