When picking up blocks after mining them, MC displays a short animation when the item is added to the inventory and the item is showing on the bar. The item kind of grows for a second.

what animation? If this was relevant, it's not now that I can see.

In Minecraft, when the item is placed in a HUD slot, the texture is stretched vertically, then returned to normal. It's subtle, but nice. And there is a Minetest mod that turns items into 3D objects and rotates them on the vertical axis, so some sort of animation is possible at this moment, just not sure if stretching is.

We can keep this one open if someone wants to investigate it. Our items currently just show up in the HUD, without any effect. Even if we don't do it like Minecraft, we could still do some sort of animation.

Rotating items on the vertical axis looks nice for a moment, but it's not that great if it does it all the time, and it also uses CPU cycles for something most people probably don't even actively watch - which would be weird in itself. :)) So a brief animation on item pickup would be nice, not more than that.

This would be something for the client side of things. But this should NOT be done in the game/repo as that would be server side, and the amount of network traffic it would cause would be on par with #1846.

IF anything, this issue should be copied over to the now defunct client repo, in my opinion.
