We want to reduce the chance that we get lots and lots of node
timers all happening once a second, because we're better off doing
small bits of work as they are available.
Reducing this to 0.2 seconds will greatly reduce the total amount
of nodetimers that elapse at the same instance, while not effecting
total work load. This results in a far better chance of the server
keeping up with work loads.
In createPlayingSoundAt(), AL_ROLLOFF_FACTOR is not set, so it has
the default value of 1.0, this makes the equation of the currently
used AL_EXPONENT_DISTANCE distance model identical to the equation
of the simpler AL_INVERSE_DISTANCE distance model.
Using AL_INVERSE_DISTANCE means an exponent is not processed,
exponents are quite intensive to process.
There is no change in sound attenuation behaviour.
The commented-out AL_ROLLOFF_FACTOR value is removed as it would
now have a different effect if used.
* mod can create a ModMetadata object where store its values and retrieve it.
* Modmetadata object can only be fetched at mod loading
* Save when modified using same time as map interval or at server stop
* add helper function to get mod storage path
* ModMetadata has exactly same calls than all every other Metadata
While experimenting with entities I ran into this unresolvable
error where the server is sending some texture that the client
crashes on. The crash prevents the client from ever reconnecting,
resulting in a server that has to use clearobjects.
We shouldn't crash but just ignore the object and move on.

Gravel now falls back to stone.
Gravel is not a particularly fundamental node, allowing it to fall back
to stone frees up subgames from having to include a gravel node.
Non-blob-ore gravel is only present in mgv6 as extremely rare 'gravel
biomes'.
Add a fallback node for stair_desert_stone to avoid ignore placed
in Minimal subgame desert dungeons.
Don't allow river_water_source to fallback to water_source as river
water needs to be non-renewable and have a short flow range.
Make stair_sandstonebrick fall back to sandstonebrick instead of
sandstone.
Re-order some lines.
Add a comment.
Fix missing decorations at horizontal chunk borders by adding
'updateHeightmap()' after terrain generation.
Swap order of 'calculateNoise' and 'calcBiomeNoise' because
'calculateNoise' modifies the heat and humidity maps created in
'calcBiomeNoise'.
Remove confusing comment, code block is not just for mods and
seems essential for correct mapgen behaviour.
Previously, m_move_pool could accomodate the client moving from the new
position to the old one, and the server accepted the client to go back
to its old position. However, it couldn't then accomodate the client
moving from its old to its new position, and therefore would reset position
to the old position. Thus, by emptying m_move_pool after a teleport, the
server no longer accepts the client to go back to its old position. A
drawback is however that a laggy client *will* trigger a few
"moved_too_fast" anticheats before being told about its new position.
Don't report player cheated if caused by lag.
Fixes#5118
Keep compatibility with protocol < 30 clients now that visual_scale
is no longer applied twice to plantlike drawtype and mods are being
updated to a new value.
For Game::openConsole() and GUIChatConsole::openConsole() the
parameter name 'height' is misleading because it's actually a
percentage of the screen/window height.
If a newly spawned thread called getThreadId or getThreadHandle before
the spawning thread finished saving the thread handle, then the
handle/id would be used uninitialized. This would cause the threading
tests to fail since isCurrentThread would return false, and if Minetest
is built with C++11 support the std::thread object pointer would be
dereferenced while ininitialized, causing a segmentation fault.
This fixes the issue by using a mutex to force the spawned thread to
wait for the spawning thread to finish initializing the thread object.
An alternative way to handle this would be to also set the thread
handle/id in the started thread but this wouldn't work for C++11
builds because there's no way to get the partially constructed object.
Visual_scale was applied twice to plantlike by accident sometime between
2011 and 2013, squaring the requested scale value. Visual_scale is
correctly applied once in it's other uses in signlike and torchlike.
Two lines of code are removed, they also had no effect for the vast
majority of nodes with the default visual_scale of 1.0.
The texture continues to have it's base at ground level.
* This backend permit mods to store extra players attributes to a common interface.
* Add the obj:set_attribute(attr, value) Lua call
* Add the obj:get_attribute(attr) Lua call
Examples:
* player:set_attribute("home:home", "10,25,-78")
* player:get_attribute("default:mana")
Attributes are saved as a json in the player file in extended_attributes
key
They are saved only if a modification on the attributes occurs and loaded
when emergePlayer is called (they are attached to PlayerSAO).
The do .. while loop is waiting for both dir.X and dir.Z to be non-zero,
so should continue to loop if either dir.X or dir.Z are zero. The brackets
present suggest this was intended to be OR not AND.
Desert and sandstone dungeons have 2 node wide corridors. Previously,
nodebox stairs were disabled because dungeon generation code did not
support nodebox stairs wider than 1 node, now it does.
Add 'stair desert stone' content id to MappgenBasic.
Requires 'mapgen stair desert stone' to be added to Minetest Game.
My recent dungeon commit allowed stairs to be placed across the full
width of corridors, but some of the new node positions accessed were
missing checks for being within the voxelmanip, causing occasional
segfaults near dungeons with corridors wider than 1 node.
Add 'vm->m_area.contains(pos)' checks just before stair position
voxelmanip access. This allows an earlier check to be removed as it
is now redundant.
The default of 15 is unchanged.
7 degrees is x10 magnification which is common for binoculars.
Alter hardcoded limits in camera.cpp:
Minimum 7 degrees.
Maximum 160 degrees to match upper limits in advanced settings.
Previously, code did not support stair nodeboxes in corridors wider
than 1 node.
Make stair nodeboxes full width even in corridors with different
widths in X and Z directions.
- Increase ContentFeatures serialization version
- Color property and palettes for nodes
- paramtype2 = "color", "colored facedir" or "colored wallmounted"
Previously, object meshes had their North and South faces darker than
East and West faces, the opposite of nodes and meshnodes. This commit
corrects this.
State constants as float-literals not double-literals.
Simplify code.
Add comment.

Fix the maths that check if any part of a mapblock or sector is over the
set map_generation_limit.
Therefore avoid the loading of any over-limit blocks that were previously
generated when map_generation_limit was larger. The set limit can vary
for a world because it is not yet a per-world mapgen parameter, even when
it is sometimes it will be changed deliberately.
Therefore avoid a player being returned to world centre if they re-enter
a world while being over-limit.
Fix the createSector() crash caused by a mob spawning over-limit in an
over-limit mapblock
* Improved getPointedThing()
The new algorithm checks every node exactly once.
Now the point and normal vector of the collision is also returned in the
PointedThing (currently they are not used outside of the function).
Now the CNodeDefManager keeps the union of all possible nodeboxes, so
the raycast won't miss any nodes. Also if there are only small
nodeboxes, getPointedThing() is exceptionally fast.
Also adds unit test for VoxelLineIterator.
* Cleanup, code move
This commit moves getPointedThing() and
Client::getSelectedActiveObject() to ClientEnvironment.
The map nodes now can decide which neighbors they are connecting to
(MapNode::getNeighbors()).
"[sheet:WxH:X,Y" assumes the base image is a tilesheet with W*H tiles
on it and crops to the tile at position X,Y. Basically it works
like "[verticalframe" but in 2D.
For testing, I combined the four default_chest images into one.
Breath is now handled server side. Changing this behaviour required some modifications to core:
* Ignore TOSERVER_BREATH package, marking it as obsolete
* Clients doesn't send the breath to server anymore
* Use PlayerSAO pointer instead of peer_id in Server::SendPlayerBreath to prevent a useless lookup (little perf gain)
* drop a useless static_cast in emergePlayer
Remake the light_decode_table.
The table starts out without pre-filled in values since those
are always discarded by the code apparently. We calculate a
pseudo curve with gamma power function, and then apply a new
adjustment table.
The adjustment table is setup to make the default gamma of 2.2
look decent: not too dark at light level 3 or so, but too dark
at 1 and below to be playable. The curve is much smoother than
before and looks reasonable at the whole range, offering a
pleasant decay of light levels away from lights.
The `display_gamma` setting now actually does something logical:
the game is darker at values below 2.2, and brighter at values
above 2.2. At 3.0, the game is very bright, but still has a good
light scale. At 1.1 or so, the bottom 5 light levels are virtually
black, but you can still see enough detail at light levels 7-8,
so the range and spread is adequate.
I must add that my monitor is somewhat dark to begin with, since
I have a `hc` screen that doesn't dynamic range colors or try to
pull up `black` pixels for me (it is tuned for accurate color and
light levels), so this should look even better on more dynamic
display tunings.
* Calculate maximum interact distance from wielded tool
* New "interacted_while_dead" cheat_type for the Lua API
* Disallow dropping items while dead
* Move player to spawn before resurrecting them
Currently, lua does a regular exit() after a lua panic, which can make
a problem hard to debug. Invoking FATAL_ERROR() instead will print
some useful information, and abort() minetest, so that a debugger can
be used to analyze the situation.
Trying to resolve a path with RemoveRelativePathComponents that can't
be resolved without leaving leading parent components (e.g. "../worlds/foo"
or "bar/../../worlds/foo") will fail. To work around this, we leave
the relative components and simply remove the trailing components one
at a time, and bail out when we find a parent component. This will
still fail for paths like "worlds/foo/noexist/../auth.txt" (the path
before the last parent component must not exist), but this is fine
since you won't be able to open a file with a path like that anyways
(the O.S. will determine that the path doesn't exist.
Try `cat /a/../etc/passwd`).
As mgv7 is now the default mapgen i re-checked its tunnel width on request,
discovered they needed to be wider, and have made this change.
This commit widens the identical 3D noise tunnels in the other mapgens in
exactly the same way.
Fixes#4878
Also remove an artificial viewing range reduction that
(presumably) was added to compensate for miscomputed
viewing ranges, and that doesn't seem to be needed any
more (thanks to lhofhansl).
Schematics can already be placed with a param2 value, but not
simple 1-node plant decorations of the simple type.
This adds a `param2` field to the simple deco type that is
checked to be between 0 and 255, and put to the placed node
at mapgen.
This can be used to put a degrotate value in, or e.g. a fill
value for leveltype nodes, or a place_param2 value at mapgen
placement, or vary the shape of meshoptions plantlike drawtype.
Prevent waterfalls from falling down or streams from flowing away when the
source node is in an unloaded block - Nodes near a CONTENT_IGNORE node will
be interpreted as if the ignored node is a liquid node that just supports
the current state of the nodes in question.
To avoid smaller biomes when extra biomes are added to MTGame.
The addition of bushes in MTGame grasslands makes wood resources easier
to find and less distant, so slightly larger biomes are now acceptable,
but also desirable to encourage travel and create more sense of adventure.
Floatland base terrain underside was too thin, causing excessive water
leakage through tunnels under lakes, now make it thicker.
Floatland mountain terrain had a rim 1 node thick which made it bare
stone, now make it 2 nodes thick to merge with the floatland base
terrain rim and to have a layer of biome material.
Make mountain terrain more exponentially shaped by altering the
exponent.
Remove unnecessary and potentially ugly MYMAX() applied to
n_base_height.
This combats the problem of sending the hundreds of
"creative" / "armor" or whatever detached invs that
exist on popular servers to each and every player
on join or on change of said invs.
Previously, paths like ./worlds would be resolved to /worlds since the
leading dot was considered just as irrelevant as a dot in the middle of
the path.
Position, velocity and acceleration vectors of particles are rotated
by the yaw of the parent object so that they are truly relative to it.
Clarify new attached particle spawner behavior in lua_api.txt.
Active objects that are attached to other objects are not safe
from deletion. As a result, the parent object may have a reference
to an id of a child's that no longer exists.
If at some point an attempt is made to manipulate the child,
enviromment->getActiveObject(child-id) returns NULL. Using the
NULL pointer causes the crash...
This is a slightly modified and cleaned up version of #3774 by RealBadAngel.
By sofar: Remove color change (just make it lighter) and some minor cleanups.
The client would not compute the distance from the camera to
to a mapblock correctly. The result was that blocks that were in
view (i.e. not beyond the fog limit) would not be rendered.
With the improved distance computation, a range adjustment that
existed in clientiface.cpp is no longer required.
The problem was seen while using the mobf mod package.
The problem happens when the server serializes entity attachments.
Sometimes, such attachments no longer exist. The serialization code
skips those. However, the total number of attachments was serialized
earlier. Therefore the client expects more than it gets, and logs a
serialization error.
PlayerSAO::disconnected() function was historical and remove the link between SAO and RemotePlayer session. With previous attributes linked to RemotePlayer saving was working. But now attributes are read from SAO not RemotePlayer and the current serialize function verify SAO exists to save the player attributes.
Because PlayerSAO::disconnected marks playersao for removal, only mark playerSAO for removal and let PlayerSAO::removingFromEnvironment do the correct saving behaviour and all the disconnection process instead of doing a partial removal and let the server loop doing the RemotePlayer cleanup and remove some saved attributes...
* Create UnitSAO, a common part between PlayerSAO & LuaEntitySAO

* Move hp from Player to LocalPlayer
* Move m_hp from LuaEntitySAO to UnitSAO
* Use m_hp from PlayerSAO/UnitSAO instead of RemotePlayer
This commit rewrites the procedure that is responsible for light
updating.
this commit
-provides iterative solutions for unlighting and light spreading
-introduces a new priority queue-like container for the iteration
-creates per-node MapBlock caching to reduce retrieving MapBlocks from
the map
-calculates with map block positions and in-block relative node
coordinates
-skips light updating if it is not necessary since the node's new light
will be the same as its old light was
Flash alpha maximum is reduced from 180 to 127 to avoid player blindness
in combat. Flash alpha minimum is unchanged.
The 'damage_flash' value is now limited to max alpha, to avoid multiple
hits creating a huge value that causes flash to stay at maximum alpha
for a long period. Now alpha always starts to fade immediately after
taking damage.
Both problems can be seen in Minetest let's play videos.
Simplify and optimise some code.
Move static object storage force-delete message from errorstream to
warningstream.
Increase 'max objects per block' setting to 64.
Add missing spaces in warning code.
Modification of the emergeblocks internal state was not protected
by a lock, causing a race condition.
This can be reproduced by repeatedly running emergeblocks for an
already-generated section of the map (with multiple emerge threads).
* Move client list to ServerEnvironment and use RemotePlayer members instead of Player
* ClientEnvironment only use setLocalPlayer to specify the current player
* Remove ClientEnvironment dead code on player list (in fact other players are CAO not Player objects)
* Drop LocalPlayer::getPlayer(xxx) functions which aren't used.
* Improve a little bit performance by using const ref list for ClientEnvironment::getPlayerNames() & Client::getConnectedPlayerNames()
* Drop isLocal() function from (Local)Player which is not needed anymore because of previous changes
This change permits to cleanup shared client list which is very old code.
ClientEnvironment doesn't use player list anymore, it only contains the local player, as addPlayer is only called from Client constructor client side.
Clients are only CAO on client side, this cleanup permit to remove confusion about player list.
* remove IGameDef from Player class, only LocalPlayer has it now
* move many attributes/functions only used by LocalPlayer from Player to LocalPlayer
* move many attributes/functions only used by RemotePlayer from Player to RemotePlayer
* make some functions const
* hudGetHotbarSelectedImage now returns const ref
* RemotePlayer getHotbarSelectedImage now returns const ref
* various code style fixes
* ClientEnvironment now uses UNORDERED MAP for active objects
* Use RemotePlayer and LocalPlayer everywhere it's possible
* Minor code style fixes
* Drop Client::getBreath() unused function
* Server/Client Environments now have an helper to cast Player object in the right type to use it
* Server: use RemotePlayer everywhere and remove previous added casts
* Client: use LocalPlayer where needed
* Environment: remove unused functions (getPlayers(), getRandomConnectedPlayer(), getNearestConnectedPlayer())
* LocalPlayer take ownership of maxHudId as it's the only caller
* RemotePlayer take ownership of day night ratio as it's the only user
* Pass getPlayerControl as const reference to prevent object copy on each call (perf improvement in ObjectRef::l_get_player_control call)
* getPlayerSAO is now only RemotePlayer call
* get/setHotbarItemCount is now RemotePlayer owned
* Server: Use RemotePlayer instead of Player object on concerned call to properly fix the object type
* PlayerSAO now uses RemotePlayer instead of Player because it's only server side
* ObjectRef::getplayer also returns RemotePlayer as it's linked with PlayerSAO
The initial problem was that mutex_auto_lock.h tries to use std::unique_lock<std::mutex>
despite mutex.h not using C++11's std::mutex on Windows. The problem here is the mismatch
between C++11 usage conditions of the two headers. This commit moves the decision logic
to threads.h and makes sure mutex.h, mutex_auto_lock.h and event.h all use the same features.
This is part 2 for 5f084cd98d7b3326b51320455364337539710efd
Other improvements:
* Use the defined ItemGroupList when used
* make Client::checkPrivilege const
* inline some trivial functions
* Add ActiveObjectMap typedef
* Add SettingsEntries typedef
'getSpawnLevelAtPoint()' did not account for disabled mountains, it

Rebased and tuned version of Calinou's original pull request.
'm_view_bobbing_speed' controls the frequency of view bobbing,
hand bobbing and footsteps, it was limited to a maximum of 40 (walking
frequency) so did not increase if player speed was modified by a
'speed buff', a sprinting mod or modified in .conf or advanced
settngs.
This commit raises the limit to 70 which is suitable for sprinting.
Adds several new ways that the plantlike drawtype mesh can be changed.
This requires paramtype2 = "meshoptions" to be set in the node
definition. The drawtype for these nodes should be "plantlike".
These modifications are all done using param2. This field is now
a complex bitfield that allows some or more of the combinations to
be chosen, and the mesh draw code will choose the options based as
neeeded for each plantlike node.
bit layout:
bits 0, 1 and 2 (values 0x1 through 0x7) are for choosing the plant
mesh shape:
0 - ordinary plantlike plant ("x" shaped)
1 - ordinary plant, but rotated 45 degrees ("+" shaped)
2 - a plant with 3 faces ("*" shaped)
3 - a plant with 4 faces ("#" shaped)
4 - a plant with 4 faces ("#" shaped, leaning outwards)
5 through 7 are unused and reserved for future mesh shapes.
bit 3 (0x8) causes the plant to be randomly offset in the x,z
plane. The plant should fall within the 1x1x1 nodebox if regularly
sized.
bit 4 (0x10) causes the plant mesh to grow by sqrt(2), and will cause
the plant mesh to fill out 1x1x1, and appear slightly larger. Texture
makers will want to make their plant texture 23x16 pixels to have the
best visual fit in 1x1x1 size.
bit 5 (0x20) causes each face of the plant to have a slight negative
Y offset in position, descending up to 0.125 downwards into the node
below. Because this is per face, this causes the plant model to be
less symmetric.
bit 6 (0x40) through bit 7 (0x80) are unused and reserved for
future use.

Disable the ability to connect to old servers by default to
improve password security.
If people still want to connect to old (0.4.12 and earlier)
servers, they can flip the send_pre_v25_init setting.
Add the ability to detect if we've tried to connect
to a server which only supports the pre v25 init protocol,
and show an apropriate error message. Most times the error
will already be catched at the serverlist level, the
detection mechanism only acts as last resort, because the
"Connection timed out" error message that would be shown
otherwise would be very confusing.
Automatic "fixing" of this condition is not desired,
as it would allow for downgrade attacks.
As already 161 of the 167 servers on the serverlist
support the new srp based auth protocol (> 96%),
the breakage should be minimal.
Follow up of commit
af30183124d40a969040d7de4b3a487feec466e4 "Add option to not send pre v25 init packet"
Also change the pessimistic assumption of masterlist
server versions to optimistic, in order to avoid buggy
behaviour (favourites not in the serverlist would be
denied to connect to, etc).
