## Quality remarks
Again: There is ***no*** guarantee we will accept anything from anybody.
But we will gladly take in code from others when we feel it saves us work

We mostly use plain merging rather than rebasing or squash merging.
### Inclusion criteria
Depending on what you add, the chances for inclusion vary:
Your commit names should be relatively descriptive, e.g. when saying "Fix #issueid", the commit message should also contain the title of the issue.
### High chance for inclusion
* Gameplay features in Minecraft which are missing in MineClone 2
Contributors will be credited in `CREDITS.md`.
### Medium chance for inclusion (discuss first)
* Features which don't a impact on gameplay
* GUI improvement
* Features from pocket or console edition
## Features > 1.12
### Low chance for inclusion (discuss/optimize first)
* Overhaul of architecture / mod structure
* Mass-itemstring changes all over the place
* Added files have a unusual high file size
* Indentation looks like crazy
* Single commits which add several unrelated things
* Gameplay features which don't exist in Minecraft
If you want to make a feature that was added in a Minecraft version later than 1.12, you should fork MineClone5 (mineclone5 branch in the repository) and add your changes to this.
### Instant rejection
* Proprietary **anything**
* Code contains `minetest.env` anywhere
## What we accept
## Coding style guide
* Indentations should reflect the code flow
* Use tabs, not spaces for indentation (tab size = 8)
* Never use `minetest.env`
* Every MC features up to version 1.12 JE.
* Every already finished and working good features from versions above (only when making a MineClone5 PR / Contribution).
* Except features which couldn't be done easily and bugfree because of Minetest engine limitations. Eg. we CAN extend world boundaries by playing with map chunks, just teleporting player onto next layer after 31000 , but it would cost too much (time, code, bugs, performance, stability, etc).
* Some features, approved by the rest of the community, I mean maybe some voting and really missing any negative feedback.
## What we reject
* Any features which cause critical bugs, sending them to rework/fix or trying to fix immediately.
* Some small portions of big entirely missing features which just definitely break gamplay balance give nothing useful
* Controversial features, which some people support while others do not should be discussed well, with publishing forum announcements, at least during the week. In case if there are still doubts - send them into the mod.

# Missing features in Minetest to recreate Minecraft features
A side goal of the MineClone 2 project is to find any shortcomings of Minetest which make it impossible to recreate a Minecraft feature exactly.
This file lists some of the missing features in Minetest which MineClone 2 would require.
## No workaround possible
For these features, no easy Lua workaround could be found.
### Lua API
#### Tools/wielded item
- “Lock” hotbar for a brief time after using an item, making it impossible to switch item or to attach/mine/build until the delay is over (For eating with delay)
- Tool charging: Holding down the mouse and releasing it, applying a “power level” (For bow and arrows, more charge = higher arrow range) ([issue 5212](https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5212))
- [Dual Wielding](http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Dual_wield)
- Eating/drinking animation ([issue 2811](https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/2811))
#### Nodes
- Light level 15 for nodes (not sunlight)
- Nodes makes light level drop by 2 or or more per node ([issue 5209](https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5209))
## Interface
- Inventory: Hold down right mouse button while holding an item stack to drop items into the slots as you move the mouse. Makes crafting MUCH faster
- Sneak+Leftclick on crafting output crafts as many items as possible and immediately puts it into the player inventory ([issue 5211](https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/5211))
- Sneak+click puts items in different inventories depending on the item type (maybe group-based)? Required for sneak-clicking to armor slots
## Workaround theoretically possible
For these features, a workaround (or hack ;-)) by using Lua is theoretically possible. But engine support would be clearly better, more performant, more reliable, etc.
### Lua API
#### Nodes
- Change walking speed on block (soul sand)
- Change jumping height on block (soul sand),
- Change object movement speed *through* a block, but for non-liquids (for cobweb)
- Add `on_walk_over` event
- Set frequency in which players lose breath. 2 seconds are hardcoded in Minetest, in Minecraft it's 1 second
- Set damage frequency of `damage_per_second`. In Minecraft many things damage players every half-second rather than every second
- Possible to damage players directly when they are with the head inside. This allows to add Minecraft-like suffocation
- Sneak+click on inventory slot should be able to put items into additional “fallback inventories” if the first inventory is full. Useful for large chests
#### Nice-to-haye
- Utility function to rotate pillar-like nodes, requiring only 3 possible orientations (X, Y, Z). Basically this is `minetest.rotate_node` but with less orientations; the purpur pillar would mess up if a mirrored rotation would be possible. This is already implemented in MCL2, See `mcl_util` for more infos

## Project description
The main goal of **MineClone 2** is to be a clone of Minecraft and to be released as free software.
* **Target of development: Minecraft, PC Edition, version 1.12** (later known as “Java Edition”)
* MineClone2 also includes Optifine features supported by the Minetest
* Features of later Minecraft versions might sneak in, but they have a low priority
* In general, Minecraft is aimed to be cloned as good as Minetest currently permits (no hacks)
* In general, Minecraft is aimed to be cloned as good as possible
* Cloning the gameplay has highest priority
* MineClone 2 will use different graphics and sounds, but with a similar style
* Cloning the interface has no priority. It will only be roughly imitated
* Limitations found in Minetest will be written down and reported in the course of development
* MineClone 2 will use different assets, but with a similar style
* Limitations found in Minetest will be documented in the course of development
* Features of later Minecraft versions are collected in the mineclone5 branch
## Completion status
This game is currently in **alpha** stage.
It is playable, but unfinished, many bugs are to be expected.
Backwards-compability is *not* guaranteed, updating your world might cause small and
big bugs (such as “missing node” errors or even crashes).
