what is this farmap code anyway. there is a mod called farmap by slemonide but it doesn't do much other than stall the game. then i see this youtube video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJH6lqLVce4 which seems to show a feature that is very different, seems like it draws larger globs of nodes and then refines the detail as you approach. is this a fork or a build option or something? i don't see the word "farmap" in the minetest changelogs... how does this feature work with mapgen mods? has it been abandoned?
