The tnt:boom node doesn't actually need the on_construct and on_timer functions to remove the node after 0.4 seconds as the tnt_explode function already does this beforehand.
It is useful for protection mods to know who owns an exploding
TNT block. This allows the blocks destroyed by the TNT to be
limited to the same ones the owner could destroy without using
TNT.
TNT placed within a protected area by the area owner, and later
ignited by another player will destroy within the protected area
nodes the igniter may not otherwise be able to interact with. Any
player could significantly increase the size of an explosion by
placing more TNT in an adjacent unprotected area if the original
TNT block was placed withing 1 node of such a boundary. This
feature sounds dangerous, but we are talking about TNT. Players
should use it carefully.
Pass nodename to tnt.burn function where possible to reduce
use of 'get_node'.
Change 'ipairs' to 'pairs'.
Use 'nodeupdate_single(pos)' instead of 'nodeupdate(pos)' to
avoid every node triggering recursion, the loop itself takes
the place of recursion and works upwards through horizontal
planes as required.
This fixes the TNT bug that can crash game when blowing up a container
which holds huge stacks above the norm... e.g. give yourself 65535 snow,
place in chest, blow up, stalled!
* Unused variables
* Unused values (assigned to variables, but overwritten before use)
* Defining already defined variables instead of reassigning to them.
This uses a vmanip to count adjacent tnt nodes and explodes them
all at once, using an inverse square law to recalculate the radius.
The maximum explosion becomes 125 nodes of tnt yielding a radius of
15 nodes, which does not break my machine and makes it return
in under a second.
This makes both bigger explosions and less stability issues.
The drop code has been simplified and now drops at all times a
reasonable amount of drops, never blanketing the area with drops,
even at the larges explosion level.
Particles are scaled up according to explosion size as well - a
bigger explosion will show bigger particles.
To scale the tnt:boom particle, we move it to the _effects() function.
