Fixes some other third person camera specific attachments.
Implements a single new flag for entities to be forced visible in first person mode.
Old mods do not need to be updated to use the new flag and are fully backwards compatible.
Move LuaEntitySAO to a new dedicated file
Drop TestSAO (useless object)
Drop the old static startup initialized SAO factory, which was pretty useless.
This factory was using a std::map for 2 elements, now just use a simple condition owned by ServerEnvironment, which will be lightweight, that will also drop a one time useful test on each LuaEntitySAO creation. This should reduce server load on massive SAO creation
* Adds Lua methods 'set_rotation()' and 'get_rotation'. Also changed some method names to be more clear. Instead of an f32 being sent over network for yaw, now a v3f is sent for rotation on xyz axes. Perserved Lua method set_yaw/setyaw so that old mods still work, other wise to set yaw they would need to switch to set_rotation(0, yaw, 0).
In the client, raise lower limit from 30 to 45 degrees, to avoid server
seeing this as a zoom and loading world beyond the server-set limit.
Add minimum in settingtypes.txt and enforce lower limit when set using
minetest.conf.
In the server, distrust the client-sent FOV if below the heuristic zoom
threshold and use the player object property 'zoom_fov' to check it, to
protect against hacked clients.
This causes blocks in front of the player to be rendered sooner and
blocks in the periphal view (that would soon be out of view) a bit later.
Overall this leads to smoother rendering as the player is moving around.
This helps retrieving the right set of blocks when the player is falling,
traveling on cart, or in general traveling in a direction different from
the view direction.
* Add session_t typedef + remove unused functions
u16 peer_id is used everywhere, to be more consistent and permit some evolutions on this type in the future (i'm working on a PoC), uniformize u16 peer_id to SessionId peer_id
* Cleanup network headers
* Move peerhandler to a specific header to reduce compilation times
* Move socket.cpp/h to network folder
* More work
* Network code cleanups
* Move socket.{cpp,h} to network folder
* Move Address object to network/address.{cpp,h}
* Move network exceptions to network/networkexceptions.h
* Client: use unique_ptr for Connection
* Server/ClientIface: use shared_ptr for Connection
* Format fixes
* Remove socket.cpp socket.h from clang-format whitelist
* Also fix NetworkPacket code style & make it under clang-format
* ClientInterface: add a function to verify (correctly) if user limit was reached
CS_HelloSent is a better indicator of active slots than CS_Created, which are session objects created after init packet reception
Switch existing checks to ClientInterface::isUserLimitReached()
Use range-based for loop for getClientIds() used function too
This will fix #6254 (not the memory overhead if init is flooded)
* New TOCLIENT_CHAT_MESSAGE packet
* Rename old packet to TOCLIENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_OLD for compat
* Handle TOCLIENT_CHAT_MESSAGE new structure client side
* Client chat queue should use a specific object
* SendChatMessage: use the right packet depending on protocol version (not complete yet)
* Add chatmessage(type) objects and handle them client side (partially)
* Use ChatMessage instead of std::wstring server side
* Update with timestamp support
* C++11 patchset 10: continue cleanup on constructors
* Drop obsolete bool MainMenuData::enable_public (setting is called with cURL in server loop)
* More classes cleanup
* More classes cleanup + change NULL tests to boolean tests
The previous implementation applied the setting to blockpos_over_limit(),
objectpos_over_limit() and in createSector(), causing many bugs near the
world edge.
First revert the previous implementation.
Rename blockpos_over_limit() to blockpos_over_max_limit() for clarity.
Add a new function to mapblock.h called blockpos_over_mapgen_limit() that
checks against the map_generation_limit setting, and call this only from
the code that decides where mapgen stops.
Use MAX_MAP_GENERATION_LIMIT in objectpos_over_limit() to reduce the
chance of bugs, there is no need to use map_generation_limit here.
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.
