not sure how the game physics works 100% but i love to play with the wind settings and mods for weather and wind and sailboats and other entities created to be affected by the wind. a real paraglider catches thermals and can soar and stay up all day, as long as there are thermals to catch. would be nice to have a mod which could do the same in minetest. i doub't it's possible at the moment, but since it's an open source engine, and there are already wind mechanics, making updrafts, or thermals under thick clouds, should be able to be programmed. if only i had the skills.
nevertheless, always interesting to see the neat things people are creating with mods for minetest. can't wait to be able to craft this one on the current server i'm playing on which has this mod, Moonlight Falls, a beautiful server.
The idea is very good. There is no wind in techage, but you could realize some kind of thermal (slope where the sun shines). I've had something like this on my mind for a while. But it's not finished yet...
