==================
Engine Decorations
==================
If a call to biome_lib.register_on_generate() contains items and biome
definition settings that are suitable, biome_lib will pass that call on to the
engine instead, to use its built-in decorations feature, since it'll be much
faster than Lua.
For this to work, first the item to be added must either be a node, or a
table with a list of nodes that biome_lib would normally pick from randomly.
That is to say, you cannot specify an L-tree or a function here, as the engine
does not support that sort of thing (biome_lib will just switch to its normal
handling if you do).
Second, these biome definition items must not be present:
* below_nodes
* avoid_nodes
* avoid_radius
* neighbors
* ncount
* depth
* near_nodes_size
* near_nodes_vertical
* temp_min
* temp_max
* verticals_list
* delete_above
* delete_above_surround
The plantlife_limit definition item is ignored when checking if a particular
call can be routed to the engine.
The call given to the engine will use the remaining biome definition items in
the following manner:
deco_type = "simple",
flags = "all_floors"
decoration = node or table with node list
place_on = surface
y_min = min_elevation
y_max = max_elevation
spawn_by = near_nodes
num_spawn_by = near_nodes_count
param2 = \_ set to the range specified by the biome definition's
param2_max = / random_facedir table, if present, otherwise omitted
noise_params = {
octaves = biome_lib.fertile_perlin_octaves,
persist = biome_lib.fertile_perlin_persistence * (250/biome_lib.fertile_perlin_scale),
scale = ((100-biome.rarity)/100) * (math.min(biome.max_count, 6400)/6400),
seed = biome.seed_diff,
offset = 0,
spread = {x = 100, y = 100, z = 100},
lacunarity = 2,
flags = "absvalue"
}
If the biome definition's check_air setting is false, "force_placement" is
added to the decoration's flags setting.
If the biome def's spawn_replace_node is set to true, the decoration's
place_offset_y is set to -1 (otherwise it is omitted).
