4dir is like facedir, but only for 4 horizontal directions: NESW. It is identical in behavior to facedir otherwise. The reason why game makers would want to use this over facedir is 1) simplicity and 2) you get 6 free bits.
It can be used for things like chests and furnaces and you don't need or want them to "flip them on the side" (like you could with facedir).
color4dir is like colorfacedir, but you get 64 colors instead of only 8.
Many games do not care about world align textures, however texture packs should have the capabilities to change that if they have suitable textures. This commmit now introduces a node property override for world-align in particular to force a certain scale on the selected override tiles.
Dropped ServerSoundParams -> moved to ServerPlayingSound. This gets rid of the duplicated
'fade' and 'pitch' values on server-side where only one was used anyway.
SimpleSoundSpec is the basic sound without positional information, hence 'loop' is included.
Recursively added PROTOCOL_VERSION to most functions to reduce the versioning mess in the
future. Per-type version numbers are kept for now as a safety rope in a special case.
On my system this is a reduction from 4664 to 3704 bytes.
This is not for the sake of saving RAM but ensuring
commonly used structures fit into caches better.
Since b2eb44afc5, a texture defined as
`[combine:16x512:0,0=some_file.png;etc`
will not be sent correctly from a 5.5 server to a 5.4 client due to the
overeager detection of unsupported base modifier `[` introducing a
spurious `blank.png^` before the modifier.
Fix this by whitelisting which base modifiers can be passed through
unchanged to the client, and prefix `blank.png` for the others
(which at the moment is just [png:, but the list may grow larger
as new base modifiers are added.)
This permits to make evidence that we have some bad object passing on various code parts. I fixed majority of them to reduce the scope of passed objects
Unfortunately, for some edge cases i should have to expose ISceneManager from client, this should be fixed in the future when our POO will be cleaner client side (we have a mix of rendering and processing in majority of the client objects, it works but it's not clean)
This fixes an out-of-bounds index access when the node resolver was already applied to the schematic (i.e. biome decoration).
Also improves the handling of the two cases: prior node resolving (m_nodenames), and after node resolving (manual lookup)
