From 915807f8db1f3721ad9ffc00a4863ad940010c45 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: est31 Date: Sun, 13 Sep 2015 23:41:17 +0200 Subject: Rename doc/mapformat.txt and update doc to match SRP changes The documentation file contains not just information about the map itself, but also about further files inside the world's directory. Documentation didn't reflect recent SRP addition, now it does. --- doc/mapformat.txt | 583 --------------------------------------------------- doc/worldformat.txt | 591 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 591 insertions(+), 583 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 doc/mapformat.txt create mode 100644 doc/worldformat.txt diff --git a/doc/mapformat.txt b/doc/mapformat.txt deleted file mode 100644 index 2b049adcd..000000000 --- a/doc/mapformat.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,583 +0,0 @@ -============================= -Minetest World Format 22...25 -============================= - -This applies to a world format carrying the block serialization version -22...25, used at least in -- 0.4.dev-20120322 ... 0.4.dev-20120606 (22...23) -- 0.4.0 (23) -- 24 was never released as stable and existed for ~2 days - -The block serialization version does not fully specify every aspect of this -format; if compliance with this format is to be checked, it needs to be -done by detecting if the files and data indeed follows it. - -Legacy stuff -============= -Data can, in theory, be contained in the flat file directory structure -described below in Version 17, but it is not officially supported.
