This greatly reduce the number of std::list generated by caching the result, which is always constant for each radius selected.
In the callgrind map, you will see original:
* 3.3M calls to std::list for 9700 calls to getFacePositions
In the modified version, you will see:
* 3.3K calls to std::list for 6900 call to getFacePositions
Callgrind map is here: #2321
it's a huge performance improvement to l_find_node_near
NetworkPacket.cpp:
* Remove some deprecated functions, we must use streaming interface
* m_data converted from u8* to std::vector<u8>
* Add an exporter to forge packet to Connection object
* implement operator << std::wstring. n
* implement operator << std::string
* dynamic resize when write packet content.
* fix string writing and performances.
* create ServerCommandFactory, used by client to get useful informations about packet processing (sending).
* Reliability
* Transmit channel
* Implement putRawString for some ugly char (_INIT packet), and use it.
* Many packet read and write migrated
* Implement oldForgePacket to interface writing with current connection
* fix U8/char/bool writing
* fix string writing and performances.
* add some missing functions
* Use v3s16 read instead of reading x,y,z separately
* Add irr::video::SColor support into packets
* Add some missing handlers
* Add a template function to increase offset
* Throw a serialization error on packet reading (must be improved)
PacketFactories:
* Create ServerCommandFactory, used by client to get useful informations about packet processing (sending).
* Create ClientCommandFactory, used by server to get useful informations about packet processing (sending).
Client.cpp:
* implement NetworkPacket ::Send interface.
* Move packet handlers to a dedicated file
* Remove Client::Send(SharedBuffer)
Server.cpp:
* implement NetworkPacket ::Send interface.
* Rewrite all packets using NetworkPacket
* Move packet handlers to a dedicated file
* Remove Server::Send(SharedBuffer)
ClientIface.cpp:
* Remove sendToAll(SharedBuffer<u8>)
Connection.hpp rework:
* Remove duplicate include
* Remove duplicate negation
* Remove a useless variable
* Improve code performance by using a m_peers_list instead of scanning m_peers map
* Remove Connection::Send(SharedBuffer)
* Fix useafterfree into NetworkPacket Sending
* Remove unused Connection::sendToAll
Test.cpp:
* Remove dead code
* Update tests to use NetworkPackets
Misc:
* add new wrappers to Send packets in client, using NetworkPacket
* Add NetworkPacket methods for Connection
* coding style fix
* dead code since changes cleanup
* Use v3s16 read instead of reading x,y,z separately in some packets
* Use different files to handle packets received by client and server
* Cleanup: Remove useless includes
ok @Zeno-
Tested by @Zeno- @VanessaE and @nerzhul on running servers
* Move networkcode to a dedicated directory
* Rename clientserver.h to network/networkprotocol.h (Better name) and sanitize some includes
* Create object NetworkPacket
* It stores command (opcode) and data separated
* It also stores peer_id
* Data reading can be done by using a streaming interface
* Change packet routing analysis
* Remove old conditional analysis
* Now uses function pointed analysis and add connection state ({Client,Server}::handlers)
* Connection state permit to categorize condition to handle before analyze packets
* Create a handler for depreciated messages, instead of duplicating code
Conf.example: Add mgv7 cave1, cave2 noiseparams
Mgv7: Make skipping of mountain code relative to y=0 not water level
Mountain noise offset now -0.6 to compensate
Tune chance of large caves
When SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST is set to zero, then the test is stupid in INIT because all client works. In mapblock we check if client's serialization version is < 24, but if client sent serialization version < 24 (15 for example) the server set it and tried to send nodes, then BOOM
To resolve the problem:
* Create a different CLIENT_MIN_VERSION to handle this problem
* Remove the exception
* Use an assert in case of bad developer code
nerzhul is (may?) be working on a new solution. For the moment this is reverted because old worlds cannot be loaded (see discussion on github for the commit).
This reverts commit 800d19270250bb13cc6b2d330199815bf8e96446.
Remove unnecessary range limiting of persistmap
Skip calculation of filler, mountain, ridge, heat and humidity perlinmaps in underground mapchunks
Skip generateRidgeTerrain in underground mapchunks
Caves check for biome nodes, only excavate stone under water level
Unease caves noises, use MT0.3 parameters
Blobgen after cavegen
Biomegen: remove 'is replaceable content' bool
Clean up nearby code a bit
As a small side effect, it is now possible to add a background texture
to the chat console by simply providing background_chat.jpg, it is no
longer necessary to also add "console_color =" to minetest.conf.
Change must_reflow to a deque
Add overload for MapBlock::raiseModified that takes a const char*. This is a speed improvement.
Comment out unused variable
Optimisations to block offset calculations
Set builtin formspecs to autoscale in order to get consistent formspec look and feel
Uncouple label positioning from font size (May break some formspecs but is required to allow manual font adjustment)
