Sometimes the trunks are black.
You can fix this by placing or removing a node next to it.
That way the lighting will get recalculated.

Hello community, I'm quite new to modding in general and for minetest in particular.
Yesterday I started playing a little bit with code and had an idea...
I'm quite certain this idea that I had is not new at all:
A mod which turns the cubic trunks in to cylindric ones.
I had in mind to do this in a non-invasive way.
By that I mean: if you disable this mod you got the normal cubic trunks in your map and no unknown_node-textures on it.
Moreover this mod should support as many other mods (with own trees) as possible, while having no dependencies.
My questions are the following:
Does a (working and downloadable) mod exist which does what I had in mind or something similar?
Any comments (answers, links, ideas, opinions...) are welcome.
