This is an experimental copy for testing Poikilos' issue mirroring system. Note that Gitea's migration tool can import issues, but the "Issues" checkbox is disabled when "This repository will be a mirror" is enabled (it is for this repo).
You can not select more than 25 topicsTopics must start with a letter or number, can include dashes ('-') and can be up to 35 characters long.

## Related Projects
- https://github.com/Poikilos/b3view: My fork of b3view is required to use the utilities/blender/count_objects.py script.
The following subprojects were moved to other repos for clarity and better git practices:
- https://github.com/Poikilos/node-enliven-minetest: deferred, core feature replaced by in-game skin changing; uploading new skins may be re-added, but with a moderator approval system.
- mostly used for upgrading run-in-place installs of any Minetest version, but has some WIP code for live maps that should be upgraded to work with Leaflet.js or replaced by MTSatellite.
- also has some code for editing conf files using Python
- This part will be moved to https://github.com/Poikilos/voxboxor

This section is a temporary dev discussion record for the purpose of tracking meta (issues about issues). In other words, this section has version-specific points that clarify reasoning such as prioritization, difficulty, or impact of issues or solutions. It may clarify why some issues are undecided, need feedback, are lowered in priority (such as via "Bucket_Game-future", "non-trivial"), etc.

Modifying the models would be complicated. They were never designed to align with the pixels on different resolutions. This may require lots of model editing or image editing to use mobile-sized textures. The problem is that even if you make some edges right, the pixel, at a low res, may be shared with another face. We could try reverting to the old higher resolution then upscaling instead of downscaling and see if the pixels line up, and if not then hand editing would work since there would be enough pixels that they aren't used twice on more than one polygon. I can try it.

`<Poikilos>` I'll provide a patch. A good compromise would be to to some resizing and editing to make a better dye pile rather than reverting the nice bowls to the 16x16 MTG dye piles. The patch would also have to cover unifieddyes since that seems to override some of them since they aren't uniform. In any case, dye and unifieddyes images should be uniform anyway.

`<Poikilos>` Ok can do.
