Description
Yet Another Voxel Addon
Fast voxel worlds in pure Lua.

WARNING: This is experimental and may include serious bugs, including crashes. Using a huge number of addons with this will most likely cause even more serious issues.

WARNING: There is currently no way to save worlds. The ingame save system will not work. Please keep this in mind.

For Players
This addon lets you play with a Minecraft-style map. To use it, play the level 'yava_void' in sandbox. The world may take several minutes to generate, depending on your computer's speed. You will probably fall through the map and need to noclip back on top of it.

You will spawn with a voxel gun, which can be used to add or remove blocks from the world. To change the selected block type, open your context menu (DEFAULT 'C') and use the dropdown in the upper left.

The bulk voxel gun can be used to place large cubes or spheres of blocks. To change the size, hold reload and left or right click. Left click to delete the region, right click to place blocks in the region, just like the normal gun.

The advanced voxel gun can be used to place large boxes of blocks. Press reload to set two corners of the box, and left/right click to delete/place blocks.

See the video in the addon's showcase.

For Developers
No formal docs exist yet, but the testbed showcases all of the currently supported features. See 'lua/autorun/yava_sandbox_test.lua' and the 'lua/weapons/' directory.

Recent Changes
A4: July 1, 2018 [Testbed] - Fixed advanced gun attempting to set voxels clientside. - Switched default block type to rock. - Moved voxel guns into the last category, with the toolgun. - Changed map generator, map now has more flat space. [Internal] - Dramatically improved network compression. - Lowered fixed atlas size to 4096. All but a fraction of a percent of GPUs should now be supported. - Stopped chunk builder from explicitly writing the default block type. - The server will now mesh up to 1000 chunks per frame. This should prevent the player falling out of the map. A3: June 10, 2018 [Testbed] - Diagnostic commands for textures. - Voxel guns are now spawnable. - Bulk voxel gun is admin-restricted. - Added automatic workshop dl. - Added advanced voxel gun. [Internal] - Added clientside physics meshes. - Removed unneeded crap from physics meshing. - Dialed back chunk collider's clientside think rate. - Reduced atlas size for older GPU support. - Added warning if GPU does not support hardcoded atlas size. - Attempted to speed up bulk updates by flagging dirty chunks after editing block data.
