For some reason when I call this function it only ever returns the given stepsize or nil.
This seems strange since the only reference to it I can find is in environment.cpp

https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/src/environment.cpp#L357

This looks like it should indeed return true or false.

What Minetest version do you use?

It's a fairly recent build compiled just after kaeza's changes to player.lua model handling.
Will update to 0.4.8 soon but I don't see any changes to line_of_sight in environment.cpp

I remember that line_of_sight() was broken and got fixed, it also seems to work for me now.

line_of_sight() works for me, only the return value is not what is documented. I will update now and see if that changes anything.

Thanks.

It was sapier!

i _think_ its fixed now: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/4f246f0e2278aa677a74c631b25e760e8a197a3f
