## Howto register a display node
* Register display entities with `register\_display\_entity`
* Register display entities with `register_display_entity`
* Register node with :
 - `on\_place`, `on\_construc`, `on\_destruc` and `on\_rotat` callbacks using display\_lib callbacks.
 - `on_place`, `on_construct`, `on_destruct` and `on_rotate` callbacks using display_lib callbacks.
 - `display_lib_node` group. This will make this node have their entities updated as soon as the mapblock is loaded (Useful after /clearobjects).
 - a `display\_entities` field in node definition containing a entity name indexed table. See below for description of each display\_entities fields.
 - a `display_entities` field in node definition containing a entity name indexed table. See below for description of each display_entities fields.
### Display_entities fields
`on_display_update` is a callback in charge of setting up entity texture. If not set, entity will have no texture and will be displayed as unknown item.
