When the 'flat' and 'trees' flags were moved into mgv6_spflags they
were left in mg_flags in an attempt to support old mgv6 worlds. However
their appearence in mg_flags causes confusion, also, later, old-world
support was found to be broken for mgv6 worlds with 'notrees'.
This commit cleans up the mess and comes a month after a thread warning
of the change, and explaining the required action, was posted in the
news subforum. Only old mgv6 worlds with 'flat' or 'notrees' are
affected, a small minority of worlds, the required action being
correctly setting these flags in mgv6_spflags.
Disable a section of the 'map settings manager' unit test which is to

Since the creation of minetest, it had no window icon on X11.
Now we have one.
The misc/minetest-xorg-icon-128.png file is a rendering of the
misc/minetest.svg file with inkscape, created with something like:
inkscape -z -e misc/minetest-xorg-icon-128.png -w 128 -h 128 misc/minetest.svg
The "testStartStopWait" unit test is unreliably failing on mac,
for some time already. See bug #3786.
Having the unittest fail unreliably doesn't help anybody but mostly
inhibits the main feature of travis builds: to test PRs for regressions.
Therefore, disable the specific unit test for until bug #3786
is fixed.
The source used a hodge-podge of different combinations of different
macros to check for linux: 'linux', '__linux', '__linux__'.
As '__linux__' is standard (Posix), and the others are not, the source
now uniformly uses __linux__. If either linux or __linux are defined,
it is made sure that __linux__ is defined as well.
It seems that various different devices register as
Joysticks on linux, and their presence has caused
lots of confusion amongst minetest users.
Therefore, disable the joystick feature.

This commit refactors the majority of the Mapgen settings system.
- MapgenParams is now owned by MapSettingsManager, itself a part of ServerMap,
instead of the EmergeManager.
- New Script API functions added:
core.get_mapgen_setting
core.get_mapgen_setting_noiseparams,
core.set_mapgen_setting, and
core.set_mapgen_setting_noiseparams.
- minetest.get/set_mapgen_params are deprecated by the above new functions.
- It is now possible to view and modify any arbitrary mapgen setting from a mod,
rather than the base MapgenParams structure.
- MapgenSpecificParams has been removed.
- Move mapgen creation logic out of EmergeManager and into Mapgen
- Internally represent mapgen type as an enum value, instead of a string
- Remove the need for a MapgenFactory per mapgen
Reduce spread from 96 to primes 61 and 67 (either side of 64)
Prime spreads help to keep 3D noise periodic features unaligned
'cave width' 0.2 to preserve tunnel width
Reduce octaves to 3 to improve network structure
- Generalise node names to c_wall and c_alt_wall
- Remove 'mossratio' and instead disable alt_wall loop if
c_alt_wall == CONTENT_IGNORE
- Use one generalised 3D noise for alternative wall nodes and in
mgv6 create moss distribution similar to the previous
- Rename rarity noise to density noise and enable the option of multiple
dungeons per chunk determined by the value. Recreate previous distribution
- Add parameters for min and max rooms per dungeon
- Add dungeon y limits
- Integrate river water properly
Generalisation is needed now that we have sandstone and desert stone
dungeons by default and can choose any node for alternative structure.
The current code is based around cobble dungeons with mossycobble
alternative nodes, the 2 noises controlling the alternative nodes
are based on wetness.
Enabling multiple dungeons per chunk with definable number of rooms
allows the option of very dense and complex underground structures
that could interconnect to create megastructures.
Y limits are added to be consistent with other mapgen elements, and
enable locaton of dungeon or megastructure realms as part of our
'stacked realms' philosophy.
Add new colours 'skycolour_bright_night', 'bgcolour_bright_night'
and enable these between sunset end and sunrise start
Night sky has same hue as day sky but is darker and more saturated
Night horizon haze (bgcolour) is slightly less saturated and
slightly brighter than night sky, to be consistent with daytime
horizon haze
Mgvalleys: Remove riverbed sand placement from base terrain generation
Riverbed material placement moved to MapgenBasic::generateBiomes()

- Adds only ~100 nodes per chunk to trans_liquid with similar processing time
- Adds liquid nodes themselves instead of potential solid nodes below them
- CONTENT_IGNORE nodes are interpreted as if they continue their neighborhood
- This allows liquid columns to span multiple chunks without being interrupted
- NOTE: Expects an one-node border in generation chunk without liquid changes
Previously, rivers were sometimes blocked by vertical walls

Gives a convenient way to check a player's password.
This entirely bypasses the SRP protocol, so should be used
with great care.
This function is not intended to be used
in-game, but solely by external protocols, where no
authentication of the minetest engine is provided, and
also only for protocols, in which the user already gives the
server the plaintext password.
Examples for good use are the classical http form, or irc,
an example for a bad use is a password change dialog inside
formspec.
Users should be aware that they lose the advantages of the SRP
protocol if they enter their passwords for servers outside the
normal entry box, like in in-game formspec menus,
or through irc /msg s,
This patch also fixes an auth.h mistake which has mixed up the
order of params inside the decode_srp_verifier_and_salt function.
Zeno-: Added errorstream message for invalid format when I committed
Adds the particle option `collision_removal = bool`
Some particles are hard to use right now since they either go through
solid blocks (without collision detection), and with collision
detection enabled they (e.g. raindrops) would just stop dead on the
floor and sit there until they expire, or worse, scrape along a wall
or ceiling.
We can solve the problem by adding a boolean flag that tells the
particle to be removed if it ever collides with something. This will
make it easier to add rain that doesn't fall through your roof or stick
on the top of it. Or clouds and smoke that don't go through trees.
Particles that collide with this flag are marked expired
unconditionally, causing them to be treated like normal expired
particles and cleaned up normally.
Documentation is adjusted accordingly.
An added bonus of this patch is that particles can potentially collide
many times with nodes, and this reduces the amount of collisions to 1
(max), which may end up reducing particle load on the client.
This commit moves noise calculation to the functions where the noise is
actually required, increasing the separation of concerns and level of
interdependency for each mapgen method. Valleys Mapgen is left unmodified.
- Convert instances of numeric literal doubles to floats
- Move dswitchint to a local variable now that being a member is unnecessary
- Improve const correctness
- Indentation fixes
MSVC and GCC evaluate parameters in right-to-left order, whereas Clang
evaluates in left-to-right order, and of course, an optimization could
leave the order of evaluation completely indeterminate.
This commit fixes all instances of the error by explicitly assigning the
results of expressions that use PseudoRandom::next() or range() to their
respective vector components.
The right-to-left evaluation behavior is preserved since Clang is much less
commonly used to compile Minetest than GCC and MSVC combined, and would
therefore cause the least harm.
BiomeGen defines an interface that, given a set of BiomeParams, computes biomes
for a given area using the algorithm implemented by that specific BiomeGen.
This abstracts away the old system where each mapgen supplied the noises
required for biome generation.
We can remove the function in MtNativeActivity now
as it serves precisely that purpose: to tell irrlicht
that we handled the esc key.
TODO for later:
* Perhaps try to find a more performant container than KeyList
Fixes a bug where packet reordering made the server give the
client two peer ids instead of one. This in turn confused
reliable packet sending and made connecting to the server fail.
The client usually sends three packets at init: one "dummy"
packet consisting of two 0 bytes, and the init packet as well as
its legacy counterpart. The last one can be turned off since commit
af30183124d40a969040d7de4b3a487feec466e4, but this is of lower
relevance for the bug. The relevant part here is that network
packet reorder (which is a normal occurence) can make the packets
reach the server in different order.
If reorder puts the dummy packet further behind, the following
would happen before the patch:
1. The server will get one of the init packets on channel 1 and
assign the client a peer id, as the packet will have zero as
peer id.
2. The server sends a CONTROLTYPE_SET_PEER_ID packet to inform
the client of the peer id.
3. The next packet from the client will contain the peer id set by
the server.
4. The server sets the m_has_sent_with_id member for the client's
peer structure to true.
5. Now the dummy packet arrives. It has a peer id of zero, therefore
the server searches whether it already has a peer id for the
address the packet was sent from. The search fails because
m_has_sent_with_id was set to true and the server only searched
for peers with m_has_sent_with_id set to false.
6. In a working setup, the server would assign the dummy packet to
the correct peer id. However the server instead now assigns a
second peer id and peer structure to the peer, and assign the
packet to that new peer.
7. In order to inform the peer of its peer id, the server sends a
CONTROLTYPE_SET_PEER_ID command packet, reliably, to the peer.
This packet uses the new peer id.
8. The client sends an ack to that packet, not with the new peer id
but with the peer id sent in 2.
9. This packet reaches the server, but it drops the ACK as the peer
id does not map to any un-ACK-ed packets with that seqnum. The
same time, the server still waits for an ACK with the new peer
id, which of course won't come. This causes the server to
periodically re-try sending that packet, and the client ACKing it
each time.
Steps 7-9 cause annoyances and erroneous output, but don't cause
the connection failure itself.
The actual mistake that causes the connection failure happens in 6:
The server does not assign the dummy packet to the correct peer, but
to a newly created one.
Therefore, all further packets sent by the client on channel 0 are
now buffered by the server as it waits for the dummy packet to reach
the peer, which of course doesn't happen as the server assigned
that packet to the second peer it created for the client.
This makes the connection code indefinitely buffer the
TOSERVER_CLIENT_READY packet, not passing it to higher level code,
which stalls the continuation of the further init process
indefinitely and causes the actual bug.
Maybe this can be caused by reordered init packets as well, the only
studied case was where network has reliably reordered the dummy
packet to get sent after the init packets.
The patch fixes the bug by not ignoring peers where
m_has_sent_with_id has been set anymore. The other changes of the
patch are just cleanups of unused methods and fields and additional
explanatory comments.
One could think of alternate ways to fix the bug:
* The client could simply take the new peer id and continue
communicating with that. This is however worse than the fix as
it requires the peer id set command to be sent reliably (which
currently happens, but it cant be changed anymore). Also, such a
change would require both server and client to be patched in order
for the bug to be fixed, as right now the client ignores peer id
set commands after the peer id is different from
PEER_ID_INEXISTENT and the server requires modification too to
change the peer id internally.
And, most importantly, right now we guarantee higher level server
code that the peer id for a certain peer does not change. This
guarantee would have to be broken, and it would require much
larger changes to the server than this patch means.
* One could stop sending the dummy packet. One may be unsure whether
this is a good idea, as the meaning of the dummy packet is not
known (it might be there for something important), and as it is
possible that the init packets may cause this problem as well
(although it may be possible too that they can't cause this).
Thanks to @auouymous who had originally reported this bug and who
has helped patiently in finding its cause.
Version 1.8.2 of irrlicht changed the way that IGUIStaticText::getTextHeight() works and since that release properly deals with newlines.
From irrlicht changes.txt for 1.8.2, "IGUIStaticText::getTextHeight returns now the correct height for texts with newlines even WordWrap is not set."
* Remove the copy from db::loadBlock by using a pointer to the destination

The path finding code works fairly well except that it considers
anythin not CONTENT_AIR to be "above the surface". This results in
paths that are unwalkable for entities since e.g. plants are not
walkable. The path would force them to jump on top of grass plants,
etc..
The obvious solution is not to use CONTENT_AIR as a criteria, but
instead distinguish between walkable and non-walkable nodes. This
results in paths that properly walk through grass nodes.
This was extensively tested by a flock of electric sheep.
Note that for underwater purposes this changes the behaviour from
"the surface is walkable" to "ignore water entirely" making the
path go across the water bottom, and pathing fail likely from the
water surface. This is intentional.
Before, the GridNodes were stored in vector<vector<vector<T>>>,
and initialized in advance. Putting three vectors inside each other
puts lots of unneccessary stress onto the allocator, costs more memory,
and has worse cache locality than a flat vector<T>.
For larger search distances, an the array getting initialized means
essentially O(distance^3) complexity in both time and memory,
which makes the current path search a joke. In order to really
profit from the dijkstra/A* algorithms, other data structures
need to be used for larger distances.
For shorter distances, a map based GridNode storage may be slow as
it requires lots of levels of indirection, which is bad for things like
cache locality, and an array based storage may be faster.
This commit does:
1. remove the vector<vector<vector<T>>> based GridNodes storage that
is allocated and initialized in advance and for the whole
possible area.
2. Add a vector<T> based GridNodes storage that is allocated and
initialized in advance for the whole possible area.
3. Add a map<P,T> based GridNodes storage whose elements are
allocated and initialized, when the path search code
demands it.
4. Add code to decide between approach 2 and 3,
based on the length of the path.
5. Remove the unused "surfaces" member of the PathGridnode class.
Setting this isn't as easy anymore for the
map based GridNodes storage.
* Fix naming style for methods and classes:
Use camelCase for methods and PascalCase for classes as
code style demands it. And use sneak_case for methods that
are not member of a class.
* Replace "* " with " *" for Pointers
* Same for references
* Put function body opening braces on new line
* Other misc minor non functional style improvements
There is no need to put them into the header, they are solely used
inside the pathfinder.
Another advantage of this change is that only the pathfinder.cpp has
to be compiled if PATHFINDER_DEBUG gets defined or undefined, not
all files including the .h.
This commit moves the pathfinder classes to the cpp file without
modifications.
Also, the PATHFINDER_DEBUG macro gets moved to the cpp file and
the PATHFINDER_CALC_TIME macro gets moved to a plce where it
actually does work.
Previously, race conditions occurred inside logging, that caused
segfaults because a thread was trying to use an old pointer that
was freed when the string was reallocated. Using a fixed-length buffer
avoids this, at the cost of cutting too long messages over seveal lines.
The shadow bug at y = 63 was caused by dark air being placed as dust,
when the biome dust was unspecified it was falling back to 'air'
In dustTopNodes only dust == 'ignore' will disable dust placement
Previous mountain terrain generation was by necessity placing
stone in air, this was removing air from any overgenerated
structures such as tunnels, dungeons and large caves
Moving it into the base terrain generation loop ensures that
only 'ignore' is replaced
generateRidgeTerrain: only return if node_max.Y < water_level - 16

Move some old unused code in mgv7 to end of file
It was caused by player not moving because fall was prevented, but their
velocity still increasing, causing fatal fall damage when world was
finally loaded. This commit fixes it by setting player velocity to zero
when the world around them is not loaded.
Commit
c3b279750ece0b5144bf8e973d55108347462223 "Move object nametags to camera"
has added a regression to still display
a shadow if their alpha got set to 0.
* Fix leak like behaviour if you load multiple schematics in a loop.
* Cleanup check in for, fixing theoretical out of bounds read if
Schematic::deserializeFromMts reduced the number of elements
in m_nodenames. A != check may need an overflow of the counter
before it hits, if origsize is larger than m_nodenames.size().
* Fix function name passed to errorstream: it was wrong. Also use
__FUNCTION__ instead of manually using the method name at other
places in the function.
* Don't shadow the name member in the loop.
This fixes#3935, a regression from 0338c2e.
An 'optimization' was performed where an index for the VoxelManip being
operated on was mistakenly used for bounds checking within the incorrect
VoxelArea, namely, the area wherein light should be spread.
This allows the player to more easily target and punch connected
nodeboxes, especially if they have a fixed nodebox that is very
small, like technic cabling, or xpanes. Tried it on fences and
my xpane conversion, and happy with the result.
Changes:
* Fix indentation.
* Pass strings by const reference.
* Merge Strfnd and WStrfnd into one class instead of copying them.
* Remove trailing spaces.
* Fix variable names.
* Move to util.
* Other miscellaneous style fixes.
ABM's are hardcoded to run every 1.0s, NodeTimers are hard coded to
run at every 1.0s. Block mgmt is running every 2.0sec.
However, these timers can be better tuned for both higher and lower
values by server owners. Some server owners want to, and have the
resources to send more packets per second to clients, and so they
may wish to send smaller updates sooner. Right now all ABM's are
coalesced into 1.0 second intervals, resulting in large send queues
to all clients. By reducing the amount of possible timers, one can
get a far better response rate and lower the perception of lag.
On the other side of the camp, some servers may want to increase
these values, which again isn't easily doable.
The global settings abm_interval and nodetimer_interval are set to
current values by default. I've tested with 0.2/0.5 type values
and noticed a greatly improved response and better scattering of
nodetimers, as well as enjoying not faceplanting into doors with
pressure plates anymore.
The legacy init packet (pre v25) sends information about the client's
password that a server could use to log in to other servers if the
username and password are the same. All the other benefits of SRP of
protocol v25 are missed if the legacy init packet is still sent during
connection creation.
This patch adds an option to not send the v25 init packet. Not sending
the v25 packet means breaking compat with pre v25 servers, but as the
option is not enabled by default, no servers are affected unless the
user explicitly flips the switch. More than 90% of the servers on the
serverlist support post v25 protocols.
The patch also fixes a bug with greying out of non compliant servers
being done wrongly, the min and max params were mixed.
Fix two bugs related to the reconnect feature
introduced by commit
3b50b2766aeb09c9fc0ad0ea07426bb2187df3d7 "Optional reconnect functionality"
1. Set the password to the stored one
Before, we have done the reconnect attempt with a
cleared password, so using the feature would only
work if you had an empty password.
Thanks to @orwell96 for reporting the bug.
2. Reset the reconnect_requested flag after its use
the_game only writes to the reconect_requested flag
if it sets it to true. It never sets it to false.
If the flag is not reset after its use, all "reset"s
to the main menu will look like the server had
requested a reconnect.
* No function overloading
* Adhere coding style and with method names following
lowercase_underscore_style
* Use std::string in external API, handling these is
much more fun
Don't excavate the overgenerated stone at node_max.Y + 1,
this creates a 'roof' over the tunnel, preventing light in
tunnels at mapchunk borders when generating mapchunks upwards.
1. Copy-paste error: properly test for back-connection.
In the case of two different connected nodebox types, we want to
assure that if A connects to B, that B also connects to A. This test
was accidentally not implemented correctly.
2. Clear the connects_to_ids before deserializing.
With each new connected node, the deserialization code added more
and more targets to the map, since the map wasn't cleared in between
deserialization steps. This caused e.g. wall blocks to connect to
things in the fence connects_to map.
NDT_CONNECTED attempts to connect to any side of nodes that it can
connect to, which is troublesome for FACEDIR type nodes that generally
may only have one usable face, and can be rotated.
We introduce a node parameter `connect_sides` that is valid for
any node type. If specified, it lists faces of the node (in "top",
"bottom", "front", "left", "back", "right", form, as array) that
connecting nodeboxes can connect to. "front" corresponds to the south
facing side of a node with facedir = 0.
If the node is rotatable using *simple* FACEDIR, then the attached
face is properly rotated before checking. This allows e.g. a chest
to be attached to only from the rear side.
We introduce a new nodebox type "connected", and allow these nodes to
have optional nodeboxes that connect it to other connecting nodeboxes.
This is all done at scenedraw time in the client. The client will
inspect the surrounding nodes and if they are to be connected to,
it will draw the appropriate connecting nodeboxes to make those
connections.
In the node_box definition, we have to specify separate nodeboxes for
each valid connection. This allows us to make nodes that connect only
horizontally (the common case) by providing optional nodeboxes for +x,
-x, +z, -z directions. Or this allows us to make wires that can connect
up and down, by providing nodeboxes that connect it up and down (+y,
-y) as well.
The optional nodeboxes can be arrays. They are named "connect_top,
"connect_bottom", "connect_front", "connect_left", "connect_back" and
"connect_right". Here, "front" means the south facing side of the node
that has facedir = 0.
Additionally, a "fixed" nodebox list present will always be drawn,
so one can make a central post, for instance. This "fixed" nodebox
can be omitted, or it can be an array of nodeboxes.
Collision boxes are also updated in exactly the same fashion, which
allows you to walk over the upper extremities of the individual
node boxes, or stand really close to them. You can also walk up
node noxes that are small in height, all as expected, and unlike the
NDT_FENCELIKE nodes.
I've posted a screenshot demonstrating the flexibility at
http://i.imgur.com/zaJq8jo.png
In the screenshot, all connecting nodes are of this new subtype.
Transparent textures render incorrectly, Which I don't think is
related to this text, as other nodeboxes also have issues with this.
A protocol bump is performed in order to be able to send older clients
a nodeblock that is usable for them. In order to avoid abuse of users
we send older clients a "full-size" node, so that it's impossible for
them to try and walk through a fence or wall that's created in this
fashion. This was tested with a pre-bump client connected against a
server running the new protocol.
These nodes connect to other nodes, and you can select which ones
those are by specifying node names (or group names) in the
connects_to string array:
connects_to = { "group:fence", "default:wood" }
By default, nodes do not connect to anything, allowing you to create
nodes that always have to be paired in order to connect. lua_api.txt
is updated to reflect the extension to the node_box API.
Example lua code needed to generate these nodes can be found here:
https://gist.github.com/sofar/b381c8c192c8e53e6062
The MainMenuManager set the console invisible when a
formspec opened over it, but didn't properly close it,
and the chat console never set itself visible again.
Since commit
3b50b2766aeb09c9fc0ad0ea07426bb2187df3d7 "Optional reconnect functionality"
there is a config option named ask_reconnect_on_crash.
It asks the client to reconnect to the server if the server crashed.
It has been implemeted and works, but due to a function parameter not
being passed it never showed effect. This patch adds the parameter
and fixes the bug.
Also fixes the `reconnect` option of minetest.request_shutdown being ignored.
I've written several experimental bits of code that revolve around the
need for a consistent calendar, but implementing one is extremely hard
in mods due to time changes and mods overriding core.get_timeofday(),
which will conflict.
The second part of the problem is that doing this from a mod requires
constant maintenance of a settings file.
An implementation in core is trivial, however, and solves all of
these problems at virtually no cost: No extra branches in server
steps, and a single branch when minetest.set_time_of_day(), which is
entirely reasonable.
We store the day_count value in env_meta.txt.
The use case is obvious: This change allows mods to create an actual
virtual calendar, or properly account for seasonal changes, etc..
We add a "/days" chatcommand that displays the current day count. No
permissions are needed. It can only retrieve the day count, not
modify it.

In the calculation of y_start,
when 'column height max' was large it caused
nmin.Y + max_height > nmax.Y - max_height
Now, in this situation y_start is set to the
midpoint between nmin.Y and nmax.Y
Limit y0 and y1 to between nmin.Y and nmax.Y,
otherwise index calculation, which has no checks for limits,
places them at unwanted locations in the voxelmanip
As stated in this forum thread [1], I noticed that there is a
2 second interval in which inventory changes are shown on the
client. @yyt16384 found the source of these 2 seconds:
m_nothing_to_send_pause_timer is set to 2.0 every time there
are no changes to make, but this timer is not reset when
SetBlockNotSent or setBlocksNotSent are invoked. So in worst
case, the changed block will be sent over 2 seconds too late.
With this change, changed inventories are updated almost
immediately, but it causes additional connection load.
This allows mods to perform both asynchronous and synchronous HTTP
requests. Mods are only granted access to HTTP APIs if either mod
security is disabled or if they are whitelisted in any of the
the secure.http_mods and secure.trusted_mods settings.
Adds httpfetch_caller_alloc_secure to generate random, non-predictable
caller IDs so that lua mods cannot spy on each others HTTP queries.
Previously you could steal a secure environment from a trusted mod by wrapping
request_insecure_environment with some code like this:
local rie_cp = minetest.request_insecure_environment
local stolen_ie
function minetest.request_insecure_environment()
local ie = rie_cp()
stolen_ie = stolen_ie or ie
return ie

Introduce a new contentfeatures version (8). When clients

the tiledef.backface_culling is trustable, but if clients

then the v27 clients know that backface culling settings

clock_gettime() is a far better clock than gettimeofday().
Even better than clock_gettime() is that you can select either
CLOCK_MONOTONIC, or even CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW. These clocks offer
high precision time. And the _RAW variant will never roll back
due to NTP drift or daylight savings, or otherwise.
I've adjusted this code to select the right clock method auto-
matically based on what's available in the OS. This means that
if you're running a very old linux version, MacOS or other,
you will automatically get the best clocksource available.
I've tested all Linux clocksources by selectively compiling and
running a 10k+ timer test suite. In all cases I confirmed that
the 3 POSIX Linux clocksources worked properly, and were
selected properly.
I've modified the OS X compile path to use the high-res clock
source for all time functions, but I can't confirm it works or
that it compiles.
As for WIN32, I confirmed that the used clocksource is indeed
a Monotonic clocksource, so good news: that code section appears
to be exactly what it should be.
`errorstream` must not be overly verbose as clientside it is directly printed
onto the ingame chat window. These days, the serverlist can contain > 200k bytes,
so better print it to warningstream if the data buffer is too long.
Outdated servers are always sending tiledefs with culling
enabled no matter what, as the value was previously entirely
ignored.
To compensate, we must (1) detect that we're running against
an old server with a new client, and (2) disable culling for
mesh, plantlike, firelike and liquid draw types no matter what
the server is telling us.
In order to achieve this, we need to bump the protocol version
since we cannot rely on the tiledef version, and test for it
being older. I've bumped the protocol version, although that
should have likely happened in the actual change that introduced
the new backface_culling PR #3578. Fortunately that's only 2
commits back at this point.
We also explicitly test for the drawtype to assure we are not
changing the culling value for other nodes, where it should
remain enabled.
This was tested against various pub servers, including 0.4.13 and
0.4.12.
Fixes#3598
Backface culling is enabled by default for all tiles, as this
is how the lua parser initializes each tiledef. We revert to
always using the value from the tiledef since it is always
read and serialized.
Mods that wish to enable culling for e.g. mesh nodes, now can
specify the following to enable backface culling:
tiles = {{ name = "tex.png", backface_culling = true }},
Note the double '{' and use of 'name' key here! In the same
fashion, backface_culling can be disabled for any node now.
I've tested this against the new door models and this properly
allows me to disable culling per node. I've also tested this
against my crops mod which uses mesh nodes where culling needs
to be disabled, and tested also with plantlike drawtype nodes
where we want this to continue to be disabled.
No default setting has changed. The defaults are just migrated
from nodedef.cpp to c_content.cpp.
cloneMesh() has to use a switch in order to create a different
mesh buffer type depending on vertex type. (Credit: the new cloneMesh
was written by RealBadAngel.)
To avoid repetitive code, all other methods use getVertexPitchFromType()
to automatically adapt the indexing to the vertex type at runtime.
The pageflip mode requires a stereo quadbuffer, and a modern graphic
card. Patch tested with NVidia 3D Vision.
The mini-map is not drawn, but that's what is done for topbottom and
sidebyside modes as well.
Also most of the time the user would prefer the HUD to be off. That's
for the user to decide though, and toggle it manually.
Finally, the interocular distance (aka eye separation) is twice as much
as the "3d_paralax_strength" settings. I find this a strange design
decision. I didn't want to chance this though, since it's how the other
3d modes interpret this settings.
Previously, we assumed that reply->str was NULL
terminated. However, this turned out to be not true,
as users reported crashes in strlen connected to
where reply->str was appended to an std::string.
Use the method recomended by the docs, to read the
length separately.
Removing the target file on other platforms was enabled likely unintentionally
by commit 5f1f1151d3a9c113902630adc16cc3f4845da7ba.
This may be the reason why there has been corruption of files on Linux on hard
shutdowns.
Previously I described the problem and this fix in issue #3084.
My commit
e2d54c9f9275e4f77ec33be8054621d42945f7a4 "shutdown when requested from lua in singleplayer too"

after the connection init was complete.
Thanks to @sofar for reporting the bug.
Fixes#3498.
If an `XDG_CACHE_HOME` can't be found or `RUN_IN_PLACE` is enabled,
`path_cache` is left at its default of `$PATH_USER/cache`
(at a time when `PATH_USER` is `..`), rather than being reset to
`$PATH_USER/cache` after `PATH_USER` has been properly set.
This allows other applications (e.g. minetestmapper) to interrogate
the database while minetest is running, without causing an almost
certain minetest crash.

Fixes#3362.
Fix regression of commit
5e507c9829942c434a6f1ae7a4f3a488c7e50bef "Add server side ncurses terminal"
where no line termination character was printed after a
lua print outside of terminal mode.
Fixes#3350.
This adds a chat console the server owner can use for administration
or to talk with players.
It runs in its own thread, which makes the user interface immune to
the server's lag, behaving just like a client, except timeout.
As it uses the same console code as the f10 console, things like nick
completion or a scroll buffer basically come for free.
The terminal itself is written in a general way so that adding a
client version later on is just about implementing an interface.
Fatal errors are printed after the console exists and the ncurses
terminal buffer gets cleaned up with endwin(), so that the error still
remains visible.
The server owner can chose their username their entered text will
have in chat and where players can send PMs to.
Once the username is secured with a password to prevent anybody to
take over the server, the owner can execute admin tasks over the
console.
This change includes a contribution by @kahrl who has improved ncurses
library detection.
The Atomic implementation was only partially correct, and was very complex.
Use locks for sake of simplicity, following KISS principle.
Only remaining atomic operation use is time of day speed, because that
really is only read + written.
Also fixes a bug with m_time_conversion_skew only being decremented, never
incremented (Regresion from previous commit).
atomic.h changes:
* Add GenericAtomic<T> class for non-integral types like floats.
* Remove some last remainders from atomic.h of the volatile use.
It isn't possible to use atomic operations for floats, so don't use them there.
Having a lock is good out of other reasons too, because this way the float time
and the integer time both match, and can't get different values in a race,
e.g. when two setTimeofDay() get executed simultaneously.
Cleanup:
* Remove volatile keyword, it is of no use at all. [1]
* Remove the enable_if stuff. It had no use either.
The most likely explanation why the enable_if stuff was there is that it
was used as something like a STATIC_ASSERT to verify that sizeof(T) is not larger
than sizeof(void *). This check however is not just misplaced in a place where we
already use a lock, it isn't needed at all, as gcc will just generate a call to
to the runtime if it compiles for platforms that don't support atomic instructions.
The runtime will then most likely use locks.
Code style fixes:
* Prefix name of the mutex
* Line everything up nicely, where it makes things look nice
* Filling \ continuations with spaces is code style rule
Added operations on the atomic var:
* Compare and swap
* Swap
The second point of the cleanup also fixes the Android build of the next commit.

On Windows Release x64 bit build this changes:
ProfilerGraph::put
1.68% -> 0.061%
ProfilerGraph::draw
12% -> 17.%
So yes, there is a tradeoff between saving profiling data
(executed always) and drawing the profiler graph (executed very rarely).
But usually you don't have the profiler graph open.
For several years now, the lua script lock has been completely broken.
This commit fixes the main issue (creation of a temporary rather than
scoped object), and fixes a subsequent deadlock issue caused by
nested script API calls by adding support for recursive mutexes.
When compiled with optimizations, the most recent versions of clang seem
to 'optimize' out a crucial "and %reg, 0x7FFFFFFF" instruction in noise2d(),
probably because it somehow assumed the variable n would never become greater
than that amount.
Indeed, signed integer underflow is undefined behavior in C and C++, so while
this optimization is "correct" in that sense, it breaks lots of existing code.
Solved by changing n to an unsigned type, making behavior well-defined.
Previously, the server called FATAL_ERROR when a Lua error occured.
This caused a (mostly useless) core dump.
The server now simply throws an exception, which is caught and printed before
exiting with a non-zero return value.
This also fixes a number of instances where errors were logged multiple times.

Use this macro to disallow copying of an object using the assignment
operator or copy constructor. This catches otherwise silent-but-deadly
mistakes such as "ServerMap map = env->getMap();" at compile time.
If so desired, it is still possible to copy a class, but it now requires
an explicit call to memcpy or std::copy.

Previously, the invocation of Logger::addOutput(ILogOutput *out) led to
an out of bounds write of the m_outputs vector, resulting in the
m_silenced_levels array being modified.
Fortunately, the only caller of that method was android system logging,
and only since a few commits ago.
-> Get rid of Logger::logToSystem and use normal downstream output system for android instead
-> Give the downstream output system more information: enrich the log function of ILogOutput
with information and add ICombinedLogOutput for easier use.
-> Make Logger::getLevelLabel() static and public so that it can be used by downstream log output.
-> Add g_ and m_ prefixes where required

Flushes the buffer of rollback actions that wait to get saved in two more situations:
1. Flushes in the destructor of the rollback. This makes the server not
forget the last < 500 rollback entries when it shuts down.
2. Flushes the rollback when /rollback_check is invoked. This is neccessary
as otherwise it leads to confusion if users want to test the rollback functionality
by placing a node and then executing the check on it, or if the actions were
very recent out of other reasons.
Everywhere where wstrgettext was used, its output was converted back
to utf8. As wstrgettext internally converts the return value
from utf8 to wstring, it has been a waste. Remove the function, and
use strgettext instead.
- setOpenedTrees(): this internal function was calling setSelected()
to update m_selected. Since setSelected() calls autoScroll(),
this caused the scrollbar to scroll back to the selected row
in some cases when that shouldn't be done.
For example, clicking the "+" to open a tree caused autoscroll.
Fix this by making setOpenedTrees() modify m_selected directly.
- setDynamicData(): set scrollbar position after calling
setSelected(), not before. This avoids setSelected()'s autoscroll
messing up the scrollbar position again.
- setSelected(): If an invisible row is selected, open all parents
of the selected row in order to make the selected row visible.
This fixes the issue where all the trees are closed again whenever
you return from the setting edit dialog to the settings tab.

The invsize formspec element is outdated. Even though,
it is still supported, only a deprecation warning is shown,
introduced by commit [1]. The lua context passed to the
log_deprecated method added by commit [1] is NULL for the
invsize deprecation warning, as its run on the client and not
the server.
Commit [1] has removed checks for NULL inside the log_deprecated
method, resulting in a crash when a formspec with an invsize
element is parsed. This commit puts the check back.
Fixes#3260.

This might break some mods, but it is important for all uses of the param2 to
be documented.
This doesn't need a serialisation version or network protocol version change,
as old clients will still work on new servers, and it is bearable to have
new clients getting non rotated plants on old servers.
It returns the index used in mg->biomemap for a given biome name.
The biomemap is useless without this unless you re-register all existing biomes,

4. Make findSpawnPos() respect the border
2 fixes a lua crash if a player drops an item outside map bounds.
3 fixes an assertion crash if a player leaves when being outside map bounds,
and then rejoins.
Because the count is serialized as u16, this would cause overflow.
If minetest later deserialized a mapblock with an incorrect
static object count, it would be unable to find the NameIdMapping
(which comes after the StaticObjectList) and abort with an error
such as "Invalid block data in database: unsupported NameIdMapping
version" (issue #2610).
Sidelen larger than 16 is essential for low density decorations
With sidelen > 16 chunksize may not be divisable by sidelen if
chunksize is changed, in this situation setting sidelen = chunksize
is desirable and should not create error messages.
Change a remaining assert(0) call to FATAL_ERROR(msg).
There was a regression since commit
ced6d20295a8263757d57c02a07ffcb66688a163 "For usages of assert() that are meant to persist in Release builds (when NDEBUG is defined), replace those usages with persistent alternatives"
where when an "uncatched" exception is thrown inside a "side thread",
the program doesn't abort anymore.
This led to the problem @netinetwalker experienced where the emergethread
got an unhandled exception for loading a mapblock while redis was loading,
(see #3196) and then jmped outside its loop to work down its queue.
This resulted in the server not doing any emerges anymore.
Thanks to @netinetwalker for spotting the error, proposing a fix, and testing it.
Error due to @est31's merging changes to PR #3202 to add more error reporting for invalid reply types, commit:
524a7656e3e5cd671b05c13e2ad69cb84bad0423 "redis: throw error if block request failed"
Now we branch out on the valid reply type "not found".
On world load the collision code can not see node boxes, since the
nodes have not been loaded. Thus it collided only at the next full
node. However, standing on a slab on world load leaded to sinking into
it until the world finished loading. Then one maybe fell further, if
the node below was not walkable.
Now, with this commit, when no node around the player has been loaded
it simply does not move the player.
Fixes#3196. Before, we didn't throw an error, and the engine thought the
block isn't occupied. But in fact it might be that redis is still loading,
and the block does exist in the database. The result was a cheesy map.
Why doing things simple ? Use pointer instead of strings to save players and remove them.
Saving players by name does a lookup to find pointer we already have ! Idem with removePlayer
Also remove unused removePlayer(peer_id), it's never called

Use std::queue instead of std::set, we don't need such a heavy container.
Don't convert position to int to convert it back to float in the next function.
The legacy code added in commit
d879a539cd19ddd1ee34afec2512fb2238de2822 - "Add minetest.swap_node"
for sending the whole mapblock to older clients on the case of a node
modification with swap_node, had the problem that the block chosen to be
sent to the client was referenced with node coordinates and not with
block coordinates, resulting in getting the wrong block sent to the client.
Entity positions are serialized as F1000. Disallow placing
entities outside safe borders with the minetest.add_entity
call.
Note that this patch only enforces those boundaries for
placing entities, moving entities that move outside boundaries
aren't affected.
Thanks to @nanepiwo for pointing this out.
1. Do two renames:
* SER_FMT_CLIENT_VER_LOWEST -> SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST_WRITE
* SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST -> SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST_READ
Now the two define values are consistently named with the _WRITE defines
SER_FMT_VER_{HIGHEST,LOWEST}_WRITE, and to better point out what the two
serialisation versions actually are for.
2. wrap some lines in doc/worldformat.txt, and point out that the node
timers are serialized at a later point, as this can cause confusion about
what now happens (if one doesn't strictly read the if block's conditions).
3. some whitespace fixes in NodeTimerList::serialize, and one new comment.
Modders are now able to select the range of ore column height,
and the midpoint at which they 'grow' starting from.

clust_size is now deprecated for this ore type.
Its obvious that "u16 command" is inside every packet, therefore this
commit removes all mentions of the command, if non-array like notation
is used. We already didn't add "u16 command" to new packets or removed
it at packet changes, so now we remove it from existing packets.
Use in-place locale directory if that exists, and

-> Regression of commit [1] where if we use RUN_IN_PLACE=false,
but don't make install, locales aren't found. One might
think this is no regression, as its no bug, but all other
