Weird ores (and antigravity)

Description

Mese has many properties and one of them is that together with ruby, it can be turned into antimese. If a ruby and mese block is placed next to each other, after some time an antimese fusion happens where within a 5x5x5 cube around the mese block, the fusion destroys all mese blocks and turns all ruby blocks into antimese crystals. By crafting these crystals into a block and surrounding it with mese crystals in yet another crafting step, an antigravity node appears, which reverts the gravity of all players who are somewhere above the placed node. The antimese crystals can also be crafted into an antimese pickaxe, which is needed to dig Antimese and Antigravity nodes.

Zeg9 has created this mod in 2013 (https://forum.luanti.org/viewtopic.php?t=5721) and I have modified it so that it works again with current Luanti versions.

Changes since Zeg9's Version (Commit e2d0e33)

Bug fixes

  • Fix overeager gravity overriding. Now other mods can override the player's gravity, too, as weirdores no longer resets it in each globalstep.
  • Replace outdated code so that the mod no longer crashes and does not show deprecation warnings

Other changes

  • Add an antimese fusion sound and jitter antimese crystal item drop positions
  • The mod is no longer embedded in a "minetest-weirdores" modpack.
  • Reduce iterations over antigravity node positions, which may improve performance if there is a big number of antigravity nodes in the world
  • Disable old item aliases by default
  • Relicense the mod from WTFPL to MIT (code) and CC-BY-4.0 (textures)
