* Player properties: Set correct default collisionboxparamat2017-05-07
| | | | | | | | | Recent commit b6f4a9c7e1a4f0bac66fd6f6ff844425ac775975 removed a hardcoded player collisionbox which resulted on falling back to an incorrect default. This stopped players walking through 2-node high spaces and made the player slightly wider. Improve docs for custom player collisionbox feature and reformat nearby lines.

* Use a settings object for the main settingsShadowNinja2017-05-06
| | | | | | | This unifies the settings APIs. This also unifies the sync and async registration APIs, since the async registration API did not support adding non-functions to the API table.
* Add option to also check the center to `find_node_near` (#5255)red-0012017-05-04

* Set sky API: Add bool for clouds in front of custom skyboxparamat2017-05-02
| | | | | | | Default true. Add 'm_clouds_enabled' bool to sky.h, set from new bool in 'set sky' API. Make 'getCloudsVisible()' depend on 'm_clouds_enabled' instead of 'm_visible' (whether normal sky is visible).

* Fix click-digging torches (#5652)you2017-04-28
| | | | Torches are dug instantly again. When the digging time is 0, a delay of 0.15 seconds is added between digging nodes. If the left mouse button is released, the delay is set to 0, thus click-digging.
* Allow mesh and nodeboxes to wave like plants or leaves. (#3497)Auke Kok2017-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We introduce a new value for "waving" - 2: 0 - waving disabled 1 - wave like a plant 2 - wave like a leave Plantlike nodes will only allow waving = 1, but for leaves we will permit both 1 and 2 since current minetest_game sets it to 1 for all leaves. This makes it somewhat backwards compatible. For mesh and nodebox, values 1 and 2 are both valid, and the node can wave in both fashions as desired. I've tested this with the crops:corn plants, which are mesh nodes, and the results are really good. The code change is trivial as well, so I've opted to document the waving parameter in lua_api.txt because it was missing from there. Nodeboxes likely will not wave properly unless waving = 2. However it's possible that waving=1 may be desired by some mod developers for geometries I have not tried, so the code will not prohibit either value for mesh and nodebox drawtypes. Add lua_api.txt documentation for this feature and document both the existing functionality and the expansion to mesh and nodebox drawtypes.

* Fix incorrect formspec-tooltip doc, add detail in 'floodable' & 'on_flood' ↵Bluebird2017-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | docs (#5660) * Fix incorrect formspec tooltip documentation * Improve `floodable` and `on_flood` documentation. The original documentation did not specify that liquids should not themselves be floodable. This is probably something that should be mentioned.
* Tiny documentation fix. (#5659)Bluebird2017-04-26
| | | There are plenty of lines longer than 80 characters, and spliting the function declaration across two lines can be momentarily confusing.
* Player data to Database (#5475)Loïc Blot2017-04-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | * Player data to Database Add player data into databases (SQLite3 & PG only) PostgreSQL & SQLite: better POO Design for databases Add --migrate-players argument to server + deprecation warning * Remove players directory if empty
* Sneak glitch: Set default to falseparamat2017-04-22
| | | | | | | | The 'sneak glitch' physics override now controls whether a player can use the new move code replications of the old sneak side-effects: sneak ladders and 2 node sneak jump. This completes our intention to replicate the old sneak side-effects in new code and provide them as an option that is disabled by default.
* Add on_flood() callback.Auke Kok2017-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This callback is called if a liquid definitely floods a non-air node on the map. The callback arguments are (pos, oldnode, newnode) and can return a `bool` value indicating whether flooding the node should be cancelled (`return true` will prevent the node from flooding). Documentation is added, the callback function was tested with a modified minetest_game. Note that `return true` will likely cause the node's `on_flood()` callback to be called every second until the node gets removed, so care must be taken to prevent many callbacks from using this return value. The current default liquid update interval is 1.0 seconds, which isn't unmanageable. The larger aim of this patch is to remove the lava cooling ABM, which is a significant cost to idle servers that have lava on their map. This callback will be much more efficient.
* Soft node overlay (#5186)Dániel Juhász2017-04-21
| | | | This commit adds node overlays, which are tiles that are drawn on top of other tiles.
* Light update for map blocksDániel Juhász2017-04-20
| | | | | | | | | This is not really different from the light update of a voxel manipulator. This update does not assume that the lighting was correct before, therefore it is useful for correction. Also expose this function to the Lua API for light correction, and allow voxel manipulators not to update the light.

* Sneak: Add option for old move codeparamat2017-04-17
| | | | | | Temporary option for the old move code for specific old sneak behaviour. Enabled by setting the added 'new move' physics override to false. By default 'new move' is true.

* Hardware coloring for itemstacksDániel Juhász2017-04-08
| | | | | | | | | | Adds the possibility to colorize item stacks based on their metadata. In the item/node definition you can specify palette (an image file) and color (fallback color if the item has no palette or metadata). Then you can add palette_index to the metadata. Dropped itemstacks with different colors do not merge.

* Light calculation: New bulk node lighting codeDániel Juhász2017-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | This commit introduces a new bulk node lighting algorithm to minimize lighting bugs during l-system tree generation, schematic placement and non-mapgen-object lua voxelmanip light calculation. If the block above the changed area is not loaded, it gets loaded to avoid lighting bugs. Light is updated as soon as write_to_map is called on a voxel manipulator, therefore update_map does nothing.
