nodecore-cd2025/WISHLIST

========================================================================
           -----===== PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION WISHLIST =====-----
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remember, check out the CONTRIBUTING file for guidelines on contributing
to the project!

- Help (PRs and/or advocacy) with Minetest engine issues:
	- >5.0.1 Release: Improvements already in the development branch
	  of the engine are expected to benefit NodeCore, e.g. #8701.
	- #7245: This is blocking making navigation challenges and
	  distinguishing nodes with similar appearance into gameplay
	  elements.
	- #8141: We want cleaner player name labels, and to move
	  the touchtip from screen-space into node-space.
	- #7020: This bug requires NodeCore to maintain a workaround for
	  the engine in its own code.
	- #TBD: Engine should not render ents that are inside a mapblock
	  for which the mapblock mesh is not yet rendering, to prevent
	  transient X-ray viewing at view distance edge.

- Publicity and player content:
	- Help spread NodeCore!  Share your experiences, screenshots,
	  videos and streams!
	- Let the developers know if you have shared something about
	  NodeCore, or would like guidance creating something to share.

- Translations, including:
	- New languages.
	- Updates for future content.
	- There is some interest in "joke" languages, such as Pirate,
	  Pig Latin, or xckd Simple.  Translations are welcome for them,
	  but they don't have official ISO codes so finding a place to
	  put them could be tricky.

- Player model enhancements
	- Check that UV maps are consistent with existing skins,
	  e.g. MTG Sam or MC Steve, for TP authors to more easily
	  adapt existing skins.

- Improved versions of any art assets (sounds, textures).
	- All textures for base inclusion should be 16x (keep
	  high-def textures to texture packs).
	- It must be practical to maintain a consistent style for
	  other assets, including future related ones.
	- Animated fluid textures (especially both stationary and
	  flowing water) would be especially appreciated.

- Help maintaining the hint system.
	- Development of hints often lags behind development of new
	  features, sometimes significantly.
	- Hint organization and content is subject to improvement.
