erle: we made a little discovery that since [png blindly passes on the image data to irrlicht as an in-memory file, it works for inlining images of any format, not just PNG

Now show me some code that has managed to render the same text in a similar quality (e.g. handling single-width/double-width, combining characters, tabulators, automatic kerning) with that…

Yes, multiple times.

To be clear here: I have thought a bit about existing approaches and proposals before I created `unicode_text. If you think that you can come up with something better in your lunch break, go…

I think it would be better to use texture transforms to combine the letters.

Great thought! Now show me some code that has managed to render the same text in a similar quality (e.g. handling…

I'm done with this issue.

If you want to produce less buggy software, read the papers I linked.

If you all want to continue inventing reasons why the bug reported here needs no fix … carry on!

As far as I'm aware, your version of MCLA using software perfectionism is abandoned

Most AAA will leave bugs if the cost is greater than the benefit.

AAA game studios will probably always do the bare minimum – and the result is stuff like peoples' dicks hanging out in…

Flame arrows should set flammable blocks on fire

Lightnings don't reach underground homes.

I concede!

Discussion on adding shovel path remove function mod to main game.
