blocks being regenerated at x=30912

[jn]

To explore the size limits of a Minetest world, I teleported myself around, and to watch the map generator's progress I wrote this little piece of Lua:

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

minetest.register_on_generated(function(minp, maxp)
        print("generated block: "..dump(minp))
end)

When I stand near x=30912, the map generator seems to generate new blocks (the lua callback is called), but they don't appear in the client and they seem to be gererated over and over again (part of the log run through "sort | uniq -c":

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

    117 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = 0}
      3 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = -112}
      2 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = -128}
     30 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = 16}
    137 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = -16}
      7 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = 32}
    142 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = -32}
      1 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = 48}
    402 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = -48}
      1 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = 64}
    279 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = -64}
     19 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = -80}
     14 generated block: {y = 0, x = 30992, z = -96}

It feels like a bug :-)
