This reverts commit 253c2282917ecade5b8356d592edab40b1d517f5.
Apparently this warning is full of crap. Explicitly
setting use_texture_alpha in the node def does
something DIFFERENT than what the engine says
it's doing enabling it internally. use_texture_alpha
enables alpha BLENDING, which is what we
don't want with interpolation filters, whereas
leaving it off enables alpha THRESHOLDING which
is exactly what we want.
Apparently we will be required to enable
use_texture_alpha explicitly for anything using
any level of transparency, not just alpha
blending, in some future version.
Bypass all group checks, dig literally any node, and try to put
the result in player inventory. Note that this may effectively
DESTROY certain delicate features like the Dais Ex Machina core,
but it can be used to fix virtually any kind of unbreakable node
mess created in a world.
Treat all API mods as a "layer", and use the new
nc_api_all registration to indicate that a mod depends
on the NC API (which ALL NC mods assume they do).
This means that each non-API mod does not need to
worry about which API mods it really needs and which
it does not, nor will they need to be updated for any
internal API restructures.
This is a game, not a modpack, so all mods will be
loaded anyway, and we only care about order. That
means that we don't really need to worry about
having excess dependencies because any mod we
don't actually need will be needed by something that's
loaded anyway. If somebody wants to reuse a
component elsewhere, they're likely to need to do
some work to untangle it anyway, because of the
amount that NodeCore mechanics interact and
interdepend.
- Intermediate number of stages.
- No dizzying rotation.
- Still has a blank first stage for emergency hand-dig.
- More reminiscent of isometric cube motif.
- Lines coming from center make it more "crack-like".
- Now has 24 stages instead of 12.
- First stage is blank, to prevent very long digs from
giving player too much positive feedback.
- Rotation effect.
The key thing here is that for the first 1/24 of the
dig animation, no positive feedback is given to the
player to indicate that the dig is "working." This
should discourage new players from being distracted
by the emergency hand-digging feature.
More dig stages also help players get a better sense
of progress as they're digging things that do take a
long time, since digging in NodeCore tends to be
slower overall than digging in most MT games.
The rotation was thrown in as an afterthought, but
helps give a sense of progress. Hopefully it's not
too distracting or seizure-inducing on very short dig
times; it ends up sort of all blurring into a circle to me
when digging with advanced tools...
This should keep players from being able to trap
themselves permanently by burying or sealing
themselves inside a room with no tools, in theory.
Adjust silk touch logic to prevent presence of dig times
by hand from tripping it.
This may affect game balance of things like not being
able to punch trees in the early game, but since dig
times by hand are so very long, hopefully the effect
will be small.
Item drops are left as-is for now; it just takes a LOT
of patience to dig something without the right tool.
If players are invisible, NodeCore will not add any visible or
audible effects for them, allowing such players to be completely
non-interactive with gameplay.
This allows things like spectator or stealth-admin mods to
function properly.
- Collapse all nodecore "core" mods in the /mods listing, so it's
easier to find the actual add-on mods.
- Parameterize in-game branding to make renaming derivatives just
a little easier.
We can't actually fully texture the top, bottom, and ends of the
hand because it's a wield extrusion, so make the whole thing
consistently banded so all faces look as bad as the ones we have
the least control over.
- Consolidate any "source-only" files into "src" dirs.
- Exclude "docs" dir, mainly in root atm.
- Exclude all dotfiles.
This significantly reduces the size of delivered files, since
esp the player model .blend file is very large.
- Clean up registered_* usage patterns.
- Reduce tendancy of leaves to create stack nodes.
Now they tend to stack up properly in-world more often.
- Tweak damage system to create "headroom" where minor
damage doesn't cost inv slots immediately.
- Make player hand skin color match model skin.
- Cleanup/unify grass abm logic.
- Start installing new sounds by MagikEh

Hexagonal gradients aren't actually a thing, but 6 linear gradients
are a thing. Render them in high-res to minimize the effect of
anti-aliasing gaps, and then shrink them to fit.
- Eliminate health and breath stat bars.
- Players NO LONGER DIE FROM INJURY.
- Players no longer lose walking speed or mobility.
- Players lose inventory slots in proportion to injury; they're
stuffed with an "injury" item, and items they displace are
ejected. Slots are displaced in random order.
- Healing rate is much faster, so players are usually mildly
inconvenienced by injury, but can soon enough pick up their
stuff and leave.
- Health and breath HUDs are gone. Health is visible based on
number of lost slots, and breath uses a vignette to narrow
tunnel vision for O2 loss.
Overall, the old health system has been more of an immersion-
breaking annoyance than anything. This allows health to get out
of the way of the primary gameplay.
UNFINISHED: Need a replacement for the old "suicide to get unstuck"
mechanic.
