Block the clouds ?

Hello.

In sky buildings, clouds can traverse the walls. It's disturbing in internal view.
It could be nice to fix it. Block the clouds at walls.

Thanks you !
JP

I think this is not possible because it would cost too much ressources on servers!
If clouds were real nodes it would be also cool because you could build in heaven!

Just as an idea, there is a mod out there that generates a "magic beanstalk" and at the top, there are "clouds." this is a substance that you can build on, and can walk on. if you were to use this mod, or a fork of it, you could build just about cloud level, and still have it all work.

If it's the case, maybe a simpler solution would be to only display clouds when they're far enough (from the viewer). Sure, clouds MIGHT appear inside the bigger buildings, but after all it could also happen in real life if buildings were big enough.

If clouds were real nodes it would be also cool because you could build in heaven!


If "heaven" is to be made, a dedicated cloud-looking node-type would be a must-have anyway, wouldn't it?

There's always the Native American Rain Dance. However, if you are unable to locate a loincloth, or unwilling to wear it, I would then recommend adding the following line to minetest.conf:
Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.
Code: Select all
enable_clouds = false
