# - flags
Improvements/fixes for noise parameter input in advanced settings Formspec input for each individual noise parameter and flag. Allow noise flags to be set in advanced settings, previously only settable in minetest.conf. Standardise 'group format' for noise parameters set in minetest.conf, as only these support noise flags. However the older 'single line' format is still accepted to support existing minetest.conf files. Therefore auto-generate minetest.conf.example with noise parameters in 'group format'. Setting 'type' in settingtypes.txt is now either 'noise_params_2D' or 'noise_params_3D', the dimension number is displayed in the advanced settings edit page.

Advanced settings: Make 'controls', 'graphics', 'sound' more accessible Move client 'controls', 'graphics' and 'sound' into the first level to be immediately visible to players who may not realise these come under 'client'. These are the settings that new players or players on a server are likely to want to access while not having understanding of what comes under 'client'. Leave client 'network' and 'advanced' under 'client' as these are more advanced. Move 'show entity selection boxes' from the bizarre location in 'client'>'network' to 'graphics'>'in game'>'advanced'.

# Use multi-sample antialiasing (MSAA) to smooth out block edges.
# This algorithm smooths out the 3D viewport while keeping the image sharp,
# but it doesn't affect the insides of textures
# (which is especially noticeable with transparent textures).
Fix MSAA stripes (#9247) This only works when shaders are enabled. The centroid varying avoids that the textures (which repeat themselves out of bounds) are sampled out of bounds in MSAA. If MSAA (called FSAA in minetest) is disabled, the centroid keyword does nothing.

# - crossview: Cross-eyed 3d
New 3D Mode: Pageflip The pageflip mode requires a stereo quadbuffer, and a modern graphic card. Patch tested with NVidia 3D Vision. The mini-map is not drawn, but that's what is done for topbottom and sidebyside modes as well. Also most of the time the user would prefer the HUD to be off. That's for the user to decide though, and toggle it manually. Finally, the interocular distance (aka eye separation) is twice as much as the "3d_paralax_strength" settings. I find this a strange design decision. I didn't want to chance this though, since it's how the other 3d modes interpret this settings.

# Length of time between active block management cycles
active_block_mgmt_interval (Active block management interval) float 2.0
Allow NodeTimer, ABM and block mgmt interval changes. ABM's are hardcoded to run every 1.0s, NodeTimers are hard coded to run at every 1.0s. Block mgmt is running every 2.0sec. However, these timers can be better tuned for both higher and lower values by server owners. Some server owners want to, and have the resources to send more packets per second to clients, and so they may wish to send smaller updates sooner. Right now all ABM's are coalesced into 1.0 second intervals, resulting in large send queues to all clients. By reducing the amount of possible timers, one can get a far better response rate and lower the perception of lag. On the other side of the camp, some servers may want to increase these values, which again isn't easily doable. The global settings abm_interval and nodetimer_interval are set to current values by default. I've tested with 0.2/0.5 type values and noticed a greatly improved response and better scattering of nodetimers, as well as enjoying not faceplanting into doors with pressure plates anymore.

# Length of time between NodeTimer execution cycles
Change default nodetimer_interval to 0.2s. (#5193) We want to reduce the chance that we get lots and lots of node timers all happening once a second, because we're better off doing small bits of work as they are available. Reducing this to 0.2 seconds will greatly reduce the total amount of nodetimers that elapse at the same instance, while not effecting total work load. This results in a far better chance of the server keeping up with work loads.

# Controls width of tunnels, a smaller value creates wider tunnels.
Tunnels: Completely disable generation when 'cave width' >= 10.0 (#9093) Previously, the only way to disable the 3D noise tunnels was to set 'cave width' > 1.0, however doing so did not disable the very intensive noise calculations or the generation loop. All the other types of cave generation (randomwalk caves, caverns) can already be independently and completely disabled. This feature is now needed more because the small randomwalk caves are now available for use as an alternative to the 3D noise tunnels.

# Map generation attributes specific to Mapgen v7.
Add new Mapgen V7 floatland implementation (#9296) Floatland structure is vertically-compressed 3D noise. Uses a lacunarity of 1.618 (the golden ratio) for high quality noise. Floatlands appear between user-settable Y limits, with smooth tapering at each limit. Simple user-settable density adjustment. Shadow propagation is disabled in and just below floatlands, no shadows are cast on the world surface. Can be reconfigured to create a solid upper world layer between the Y limits, lakes/seas can be optionally added to this.

Tunnels: Completely disable generation when 'cave width' >= 10.0 (#9093) Previously, the only way to disable the 3D noise tunnels was to set 'cave width' > 1.0, however doing so did not disable the very intensive noise calculations or the generation loop. All the other types of cave generation (randomwalk caves, caverns) can already be independently and completely disabled. This feature is now needed more because the small randomwalk caves are now available for use as an alternative to the 3D noise tunnels.

Add new Mapgen V7 floatland implementation (#9296) Floatland structure is vertically-compressed 3D noise. Uses a lacunarity of 1.618 (the golden ratio) for high quality noise. Floatlands appear between user-settable Y limits, with smooth tapering at each limit. Simple user-settable density adjustment. Shadow propagation is disabled in and just below floatlands, no shadows are cast on the world surface. Can be reconfigured to create a solid upper world layer between the Y limits, lakes/seas can be optionally added to this.

Dungeons: Settable density noise, move number calculation to mapgens (#8473) Add user-settable noise parameters for dungeon density to each mapgen, except V6 which hardcodes this noise parameter. Move the calculation of number of dungeons generated in a mapchunk out of dungeongen.cpp and into mapgen code, to allow mapgens to generate any desired number of dungeons in a mapchunk, instead of being forced to have number of dungeons determined by a density noise. This is more flexible and allows mapgens to use dungeon generation to create custom structures, such as occasional mega-dungeons.

Dungeons: Settable density noise, move number calculation to mapgens (#8473) Add user-settable noise parameters for dungeon density to each mapgen, except V6 which hardcodes this noise parameter. Move the calculation of number of dungeons generated in a mapchunk out of dungeongen.cpp and into mapgen code, to allow mapgens to generate any desired number of dungeons in a mapchunk, instead of being forced to have number of dungeons determined by a density noise. This is more flexible and allows mapgens to use dungeon generation to create custom structures, such as occasional mega-dungeons.

# Controls width of tunnels, a smaller value creates wider tunnels.
Tunnels: Completely disable generation when 'cave width' >= 10.0 (#9093) Previously, the only way to disable the 3D noise tunnels was to set 'cave width' > 1.0, however doing so did not disable the very intensive noise calculations or the generation loop. All the other types of cave generation (randomwalk caves, caverns) can already be independently and completely disabled. This feature is now needed more because the small randomwalk caves are now available for use as an alternative to the 3D noise tunnels.

# Value >= 10.0 completely disables generation of tunnels and avoids the

Cavegen: Wider tunnels in mgflat, mgfractal, mgvalleys As mgv7 is now the default mapgen i re-checked its tunnel width on request, discovered they needed to be wider, and have made this change. This commit widens the identical 3D noise tunnels in the other mapgens in exactly the same way.

Allow noise flags to be set in advanced settings, previously only settable in minetest.conf. Standardise 'group format' for noise parameters set in minetest.conf, as only these support noise flags. However the older 'single line' format is still accepted to support existing minetest.conf files. Therefore auto-generate minetest.conf.example with noise parameters in 'group format'. Setting 'type' in settingtypes.txt is now either 'noise_params_2D' or 'noise_params_3D', the dimension number is displayed in the advanced settings edit page.

Dungeons: Settable density noise, move number calculation to mapgens (#8473) Add user-settable noise parameters for dungeon density to each mapgen, except V6 which hardcodes this noise parameter. Move the calculation of number of dungeons generated in a mapchunk out of dungeongen.cpp and into mapgen code, to allow mapgens to generate any desired number of dungeons in a mapchunk, instead of being forced to have number of dungeons determined by a density noise. This is more flexible and allows mapgens to use dungeon generation to create custom structures, such as occasional mega-dungeons.

Builtin/profiler: Replace game profiler (#4245) Use the setting "profiler.load" to enable profiling. Other settings can be found in settingtypes.txt. * /profiler print [filter] - report statistics to in-game console * /profiler dump [filter] - report statistics to STDOUT and debug.txt * /profiler save [format [filter]] - saves statistics to a file in your worldpath * txt (default) - same treetable format as used by the dump and print commands * csv - ready for spreadsheet import * json - useful for adhoc D3 visualizations * json_pretty - line wrapped and intended json for humans * lua - serialized lua table of the profile-data, for adhoc scripts * /profiler reset - reset all gathered profile data. This can be helpful to discard of any startup measurements that often spike during loading or to get more useful min-values. [filter] allows limiting the output of the data via substring/pattern matching against the modname. Note: Serialized data structures might be subject to change with changed or added measurements. csv might be the most stable, due to flat structure. Changes to the previous version include: * Updated and extended API monitoring * Correct calculation of average (mean) values (undistorted by idleness) * Reduce instrumentation overhead. * Fix crashes related to missing parameters for the future and occasional DIV/0's. * Prevent issues caused by timetravel (overflow, timejump, NTP corrections) * Prevent modname clashes with internal names. * Measure each instrumentation individually and label based on registration order. * Labeling of ABM's and LBM's for easier classification. Giving several ABM's or LBM's the same label will treat them as one. Missing labels will be autogenerated based on name or registration order. * Configurable instrumentation and reporting. Skip e.g. builtin if you don't need it. * Profile the profiler to measure instrumentation overhead.
