The MINETEST_USER_PATH environment variable can be used to define a
custom path for Minetest user data. If MINETEST_USER_PATH is empty or
unset, the HOME (or APPDATA on Windows) environment variable is used as
the default user data path; this ensures backwards compatibility with
existing user setups.
4dir is like facedir, but only for 4 horizontal directions: NESW. It is identical in behavior to facedir otherwise. The reason why game makers would want to use this over facedir is 1) simplicity and 2) you get 6 free bits.
It can be used for things like chests and furnaces and you don't need or want them to "flip them on the side" (like you could with facedir).
color4dir is like colorfacedir, but you get 64 colors instead of only 8.
Many games do not care about world align textures, however texture packs should have the capabilities to change that if they have suitable textures. This commmit now introduces a node property override for world-align in particular to force a certain scale on the selected override tiles.

maintainers may use -DENABLE_UPDATE_CHECKER=0 to disable it.
