## MineClone2's development target is to...
- Crucially, create a stable, moddable, free/libre clone of Minecraft
based on the Minetest engine with polished features, usable in both
singleplayer and multiplayer. Currently, most of **Minecraft Java
Edition 1.12.2** features are already implemented and polishing existing
features are prioritized over new feature requests.
- With lessened priority yet strictly, implement features targetting
**Minecraft version 1.17 + OptiFine** (OptiFine only as far as supported
by the Minetest Engine). This means features in parity with the listed
Minecraft experiences are prioritized over those that don't fulfill this
scope.
- Optionally, create a performant experience that will run relatively
well on really low spec computers. Unfortunately, due to Minecraft's
mechanisms and Minetest engine's limitations along with a very small
playerbase on low spec computers, optimizations are hard to investigate.

are already implemented.
Polishing existing features is always welcome.

For textures we use the Pixel Perfection texture pack. This is mostly

useful to have texture artists around. If you want to make such

For textures we use the Pixel Perfection texture pack. For older Minecraft

### Stick to our guidelines
### Guidelines
#### Git Guidelines
* We use merge rather than rebase or squash merge
* We don't use git submodules.
* Your commit names should be relatively descriptive, e.g. when saying
"Fix #issueid", the commit message should also contain the title of the
issue.
* Try to keep your commits as atomic as possible (advise, but completely
optional)
* Pushing to master is disabled - don't even try it.
* Every change is tracked as a PR.
* All but the tiniest changes require at least one approval from a Developer
* To update branches we use rebase not merge (so we don't end up with
excessive git bureaucracy commits in master)
* We use merge to add the commits from a PR/branch to master
* Submodules should only be used if a) upstream is highly reliable and
b) it is 100% certain that no mcl2 specific changes to the code will be
needed (this has never been the case before, hence mcl2 is submodule free so far)
* Commit messages should be descriptive and never contain mcl2 specific
issueids - there are other projects who might use commits from mcl2 and
it will confuse their issue trackers.
* Try to group your submissions best as you can:
* Try to keep your PRs small: In some cases things reasonably be can't
split up but in general multiple small PRs are better than a big one.
* Similarly multiple small commits are better than a giant one. (use git commit -p)
#### Code Guidelines
* Each mod must provide `mod.conf`.

#### Developer responsibilities
- You should not push things directly to
MineClone2 master - rather, do your work on a branch on your private
repository, then create a pull request. This way other people can review
your changes and make sure they work before they get merged.
- Merge PRs only when they have recieved the necessary feedback and have
been tested by at least two different people (including the author of
the pull request), to avoid crashes or the introduction of new bugs.
- You may also be assigned to issues or pull
requests as a developer. In this case it is your responsibility to fix
the issue / review and merge the pull request when it is ready. You can
also unassign yourself from the issue / PR if you have no time or don't
want to take care of it for some other reason. After all, everyone is a
volunteer and we can't expect you to do work that you are not interested
in. **The important thing is that you make sure to inform us if you
won't take care of something that has been assigned to you.**
- Please assign yourself to something that you want to work on to avoid
duplicate work.
- As a developer, it should be easy to reach you about your work. You
should be in at least one of the public MineClone2 discussion rooms -
preferrably Discord, but if you really don't like Discord, Matrix
or IRC are fine too.
- If you have developer privileges you can just open a new branch in the
mcl2 repository (which is preferred). From that you create a pull request.
This way other people can review your changes and make sure they work
before they get merged.
- If you do not (yet) have developer privs you do your work on a branch
on your private repository e.g. using the "fork" function on mesehub.
- Any developer is welcome to review, test and merge PRs. A PR needs
at least one approval (by someone else than the author) but the maintainers
are usually relatively quick to react to new submissions.
### Maintainer status
Maintainers carry the main responsibility for the project.
#### Maintainer responsibilities
- Making sure issues are addressed and pull requests are reviewed and
merged, by assigning either themselves or Developers to issues / PRs
merged.
- Making releases
- Making sure guidelines are kept
- Making project decisions based on community feedback
- Granting/revoking developer access
