	Serialization format versions (for raw map data (blocks, nodes, sectors)):
	== Unsupported ==
	0: original networked test with 1-byte nodes
	1: update with 2-byte nodes
	== Supported ==
	2: lighting is transmitted in param
	3: optional fetching of far blocks
	4: block compression
	5: sector objects NOTE: block compression was left accidentally out
	6: failed attempt at switching block compression on again
	7: block compression switched on again
	8: (dev) server-initiated block transfers and all kinds of stuff
	9: (dev) block objects
	10: (dev) water pressure
	11: (dev) zlib'd blocks, block flags
	12: (dev) UnlimitedHeightmap now uses interpolated areas
	13: (dev) Mapgen v2
	14: (dev) NodeMetadata
	15: (dev) StaticObjects
	16: (dev) larger maximum size of node metadata, and compression
