Unreleased

[3.0.0] - 2022-06-11

Changed

• turned into a modpack (i.e. properly separated moreblocks and stairsplus)
• refactored and rewrote a ton of stuff
• got rid of some dead code (e.g. "ownership.lua")
• more API for creating node variants, e.g. trap nodes, all_faces, shapes
• parameterized resources (sounds, textures, craft materials) to make it easier to integrate w/ other minetest "games"
• actually implement luachecking - stop ignoring problems
• fix some unreported bugs (e.g. dependencies which weren't declared, unused code)
• i'm rewriting large parts of the mod and creating a sane API, i'm bumping the version
• create a default-on "legacy" mode to allow new servers to not commit to creating so many useless shapes by default

Fixed

• stairsplus:register_custom_subset computes the wrong "cost" for elements
• * Material disappears from Recycle output slot
• * Would it be possible to port to mineclone? - no plan to actually make moreblocks mineclone-aware, but will lay the groundwork to make this very easy.
• Minor issue causing warnings in MT 5.5.0 with texture alpha clipping
• maybe: world aligned textures
• maybe: [Make microblocks work for nodes with layered textures](Make microblocks work for nodes with layered textures)
• * Make variants of nodes that can burn also burnable
• Add screenshot in README.md #151
• maybe some of the other bugs/PRS, but they mostly either seem to be fixed or unfixable

* not yet fixed, but planned

2.2.0 - 2021-06-28

Changed

• Refactored recipe override mechanism to avoid re-coding recipes when we only want to change the amount produced.
• Realigned rail recipe to the changes made in Minetest Game.
  • All rail recipes (standard, power, break) were boosted by 50%.

Fixed

• Shapeless crafting recipes are now handled in redefinitions.
• Aliases are now resolved in Stairs+ circular saw cost calculation.
• Fixed strange placement behavior for non-default Stairs+ nodes.
• Fixed stairs placement over oddly-shaped nodes.

2.1.0 - 2020-12-14

Added

• Clean Glass versions of Trap and (Super) Glowing Glass.
• Compressed desert cobblestone.

Changed

• Revised placing strategy that takes into account which side of the face (top/bottom for horizontal, left/right for vertical placement) is being clicked. Aux (sprint/special, default E) key can be used to place the node with the orientation it would have if placed from the other side. When placing nodes next to nodes of the same gategory (e.g.slab to slab) the other node's orientation is copied, flipping it placing on top or below an upright or upside-down node. In this case the aux key will disable the special processing of same-category nodes.

Fixed

• Revised minetest_game crafting recipe overrides to match Minetest 5.0.0 and later.

Removed

• Legacy Stairs+ conversion code.
  • It was only required to import worlds last edited before Q3 2013.

2.0.0 - 2019-11-25

Added

• Stairs+ nodes for ice.
• settingtypes.txt file to allow configuring settings in the main menu.
• Polish translation.

Changed

• Stairs+ nodes now emit one light level less compared to full nodes to make up for their smaller visual size.

Fixed

Changed

• Stairs+ are now displayed in the creative inventory by default.
• Localization files now use the gettext .po format.
• Updated intllib support to avoid using deprecated functions.

Fixed

• Node rotation now works correctly when placing Stairs+ nodes.
• Stairs+ glasslike nodes' textures are now easier to see.

1.2.0 - 2018-11-24

Added

• Stairs+ nodes for basic_materials's concrete, cement and brass blocks.
• Listring add for circular saw.
• Stairs+: New API function stairsplus:register_custom_subset(subset, modname, subname, recipeitem, fields).

Fixed
