-- Snowdrift 0.1.1 by paramat -- For latest stable Minetest and back to 0.4.6 -- Depends default -- Licenses: Code WTFPL. Textures CC BY-SA. -- This is intended to be used as alternative snowfall for the snow mod by Splizard. -- The code is partly derived from weather mod by Jeija and snow mod version 1.8 by Splizard. Version 0.1.0 --------------- * Snowfall only in the snow biomes of snow mod by Splizard. You will need to disable snow mod snowfall. * Minimal processing for less powerful computers. * Snowfall is only seen by a player if the player is outside under open sky. * Each snowflake has it's own random trajectory, initial position, initial velocity and acceleration. * Snow falls at an average of 1m/s. * Snow drifts southwards at an average of 1m/s, a slightly lower speed than the southward cloud drift. * Snowflakes are sized to match 16x16 texture resolution and the icons used in my texture pack. * The snow box around the player is 128x128x32 nodes in size. * Parameter PROCHA controls snow density and processing load, default is 0.5, try 1 for denser snow. Version 0.1.1 ------------- * Mod is too light, doubled maximum snow density, added second snowflake design with a square symmetry. * Snow density is now smoothly varied by how deep into a snow biome a player is.
