05:20 MTDiscord <T​echy5> Just curiously, why is inventory serialization so verbose? It seems that it could easily be reduced to a single identifier byte for List/Item/Empty/EndInventory, etc., followed by string16s and binary integers as needed. Is it just too minor to warrant a version update?
06:12 ryzenda   Which cpp file handles placing/drawing the individual node blocks for a map/scheme?
06:12 ryzenda   or which file/function
11:44 sfan5     @T​echy5 legacy reasons, this could've been replaced with version 5 but nobody bothered, there's many things like that
11:44 sfan5     ryzenda: client/mapblock_mesh.cpp
12:37 Krock     inventory serialization must be backwards-compatible to ensure player database compatiblity
13:25 MTDiscord <s​rinivas> would it not be possible to provide a one time upgrade script?
13:26 MTDiscord <s​rinivas> or it can convert the old form into the new form as and when it "sees" it
13:26 MTDiscord <s​rinivas> and be able to interpret both, but prefer the newer form?
13:31 Krock     if even, it would likely be incremental (load from old format, save to new format)
13:33 MTDiscord <s​rinivas> but again, it is very much possible
22:21 lhofhansl Any more input on #10788 ?
