-Map File Format
-================
-
-Minetest maps consist of MapBlocks, chunks of 16x16x16 nodes.
-
-In addition to the bulk node data, MapBlocks stored on disk also contain
-other things.
-
-History
---------
-We need a bit of history in here. Initially Minetest stored maps in a
-format called the "sectors" format. It was a directory/file structure like
-this:
- sectors2/XXX/ZZZ/YYYY
-For example, the MapBlock at (0,1,-2) was this file:
- sectors2/000/ffd/0001
-
-Eventually Minetest outgrow this directory structure, as filesystems were
-struggling under the amount of files and directories.
-
-Large servers seriously needed a new format, and thus the base of the
-current format was invented, suggested by celeron55 and implemented by
-JacobF.
-
-SQLite3 was slammed in, and blocks files were directly inserted as blobs
-in a single table, indexed by integer primary keys, oddly mangled from
-coordinates.
-
-Today we know that SQLite3 allows multiple primary keys (which would allow
-storing coordinates separately), but the format has been kept unchanged for
-that part. So, this is where it has come.
-</history>
-
-So here goes
--------------
-map.sqlite is an sqlite3 database, containing a single table, called
-"blocks". It looks like this:
-
- CREATE TABLE `blocks` (`pos` INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,`data` BLOB);
-
-The key
---------
-"pos" is created from the three coordinates of a MapBlock using this
-algorithm, defined here in Python:
-
- def getBlockAsInteger(p):
- return int64(p[2]*16777216 + p[1]*4096 + p[0])
-
- def int64(u):
- while u >= 2**63:
- u -= 2**64
- while u <= -2**63:
- u += 2**64
- return u
-
-It can be converted the other way by using this code:
-
- def getIntegerAsBlock(i):
- x = unsignedToSigned(i % 4096, 2048)
- i = int((i - x) / 4096)
- y = unsignedToSigned(i % 4096, 2048)
- i = int((i - y) / 4096)
- z = unsignedToSigned(i % 4096, 2048)
- return x,y,z
-
- def unsignedToSigned(i, max_positive):
- if i < max_positive:
- return i
- else:
- return i - 2*max_positive
-
-The blob
----------
-The blob is the data that would have otherwise gone into the file.
-
-See below for description.
-
-MapBlock serialization format
-==============================
-NOTE: Byte order is MSB first (big-endian).
-NOTE: Zlib data is in such a format that Python's zlib at least can
- directly decompress.
-
-u8 version
-- map format version number, this one is version 22
-
-u8 flags
-- Flag bitmasks:
- - 0x01: is_underground: Should be set to 0 if there will be no light
- obstructions above the block. If/when sunlight of a block is updated
- and there is no block above it, this value is checked for determining
- whether sunlight comes from the top.
- - 0x02: day_night_differs: Whether the lighting of the block is different
- on day and night. Only blocks that have this bit set are updated when
- day transforms to night.
- - 0x04: lighting_expired: If true, lighting is invalid and should be
- updated. If you can't calculate lighting in your generator properly,
- you could try setting this 1 to everything and setting the uppermost
- block in every sector as is_underground=0. I am quite sure it doesn't
- work properly, though.
- - 0x08: generated: True if the block has been generated. If false, block
- is mostly filled with CONTENT_IGNORE and is likely to contain eg. parts
- of trees of neighboring blocks.
-
-u8 content_width
-- Number of bytes in the content (param0) fields of nodes
-if map format version <= 23:
- - Always 1
-if map format version >= 24:
- - Always 2
-
-u8 params_width
-- Number of bytes used for parameters per node
-- Always 2
-
-zlib-compressed node data:
-if content_width == 1:
- - content:
- u8[4096]: param0 fields
- u8[4096]: param1 fields
- u8[4096]: param2 fields
-if content_width == 2:
- - content:
- u16[4096]: param0 fields
- u8[4096]: param1 fields
- u8[4096]: param2 fields
-- The location of a node in each of those arrays is (z*16*16 + y*16 + x).
-
-zlib-compressed node metadata list
-- content:
- u16 version (=1)
- u16 count of metadata
- foreach count:
- u16 position (p.Z*MAP_BLOCKSIZE*MAP_BLOCKSIZE + p.Y*MAP_BLOCKSIZE + p.X)
- u16 type_id
- u16 content_size
- u8[content_size] (content of metadata)
-
-- Node timers
-if map format version == 23:
- u8 unused version (always 0)
-if map format version == 24: (NOTE: Not released as stable)
- u8 nodetimer_version
- if nodetimer_version == 0:
- (nothing else)
- if nodetimer_version == 1:
- u16 num_of_timers
- foreach num_of_timers:
- u16 timer position (z*16*16 + y*16 + x)
- s32 timeout*1000
- s32 elapsed*1000
-
-u8 static object version:
-- Always 0
-
-u16 static_object_count
-
-foreach static_object_count:
- u8 type (object type-id)
- s32 pos_x_nodes * 10000
- s32 pos_y_nodes * 10000
- s32 pos_z_nodes * 10000
- u16 data_size
- u8[data_size] data
-
-u32 timestamp
-- Timestamp when last saved, as seconds from starting the game.
-- 0xffffffff = invalid/unknown timestamp, nothing should be done with the time
- difference when loaded
-
-u8 name-id-mapping version
-- Always 0
-
-u16 num_name_id_mappings
-
-foreach num_name_id_mappings
- u16 id
- u16 name_len
- u8[name_len] name
-
-- Node timers
-if map format version == 25:
- u8 length of the data of a single timer (always 2+4+4=10)
- u16 num_of_timers
- foreach num_of_timers:
- u16 timer position (z*16*16 + y*16 + x)
- s32 timeout*1000
- s32 elapsed*1000
-
-EOF.
-
-Format of nodes
-----------------
-A node is composed of the u8 fields param0, param1 and param2.
-
-if map format version <= 23:
- The content id of a node is determined as so:
- - If param0 < 0x80,
- content_id = param0
- - Otherwise
- content_id = (param0<<4) + (param2>>4)
-if map format version >= 24:
- The content id of a node is param0.
-
-The purpose of param1 and param2 depend on the definition of the node.
-
-The name-id-mapping
---------------------
-The mapping maps node content ids to node names.
-
-Node metadata format
----------------------
-
-1: Generic metadata
- serialized inventory
- u32 len
- u8[len] text
- u16 len
- u8[len] owner
- u16 len
- u8[len] infotext

- s32 velocity.y * 10000
- s32 velocity.z * 10000
- s32 yaw * 1000
-
-Itemstring format
-------------------
-eg. 'default:dirt 5'
-eg. 'default:pick_wood 21323'
-eg. '"default:apple" 2'
-eg. 'default:apple'
-- The wear value in tools is 0...65535
-- There are also a number of older formats that you might stumble upon:
-eg. 'node "default:dirt" 5'
-eg. 'NodeItem default:dirt 5'
-eg. 'ToolItem WPick 21323'
-
-Inventory serialization format
--------------------------------
-- The inventory serialization format is line-based
-- The newline character used is "\n"
-- The end condition of a serialized inventory is always "EndInventory\n"
-- All the slots in a list must always be serialized.
-
-Example (format does not include "---"):

-==============================================
-Minetest World Format used as of 2011-05 or so
-==============================================
-
-Map data serialization format version 17.
-
-0.3.1 does not use this format, but a more recent one. This exists here for
-historical reasons.
-
-Directory structure:
-sectors/XXXXZZZZ or sectors2/XXX/ZZZ
-XXXX, ZZZZ, XXX and ZZZ being the hexadecimal X and Z coordinates.
-Under these, the block files are stored, called YYYY.
-
-There also exists files map_meta.txt and chunk_meta, that are used by the
-generator. If they are not found or invalid, the generator will currently
-behave quite strangely.
-
-The MapBlock file format (sectors2/XXX/ZZZ/YYYY):
--------------------------------------------------
-
-NOTE: Byte order is MSB first.
-
-u8 version
-- map format version number, this one is version 17
-
-u8 flags
-- Flag bitmasks:
- - 0x01: is_underground: Should be set to 0 if there will be no light
- obstructions above the block. If/when sunlight of a block is updated and
- there is no block above it, this value is checked for determining whether
- sunlight comes from the top.
- - 0x02: day_night_differs: Whether the lighting of the block is different on
- day and night. Only blocks that have this bit set are updated when day
- transforms to night.
- - 0x04: lighting_expired: If true, lighting is invalid and should be updated.
- If you can't calculate lighting in your generator properly, you could try
- setting this 1 to everything and setting the uppermost block in every
- sector as is_underground=0. I am quite sure it doesn't work properly,
- though.
-
-zlib-compressed map data:
-- content:
- u8[4096]: content types
- u8[4096]: param1 values
- u8[4096]: param2 values
-
-zlib-compressed node metadata

+
+MapBlock serialization format
+==============================
+NOTE: Byte order is MSB first (big-endian).
+NOTE: Zlib data is in such a format that Python's zlib at least can
+ directly decompress.
+
+u8 version
+- map format version number, this one is version 22
+
+u8 flags
+- Flag bitmasks:
+ - 0x01: is_underground: Should be set to 0 if there will be no light
+ obstructions above the block. If/when sunlight of a block is updated
+ and there is no block above it, this value is checked for determining
+ whether sunlight comes from the top.
+ - 0x02: day_night_differs: Whether the lighting of the block is different
+ on day and night. Only blocks that have this bit set are updated when
+ day transforms to night.
+ - 0x04: lighting_expired: If true, lighting is invalid and should be
+ updated. If you can't calculate lighting in your generator properly,
+ you could try setting this 1 to everything and setting the uppermost
+ block in every sector as is_underground=0. I am quite sure it doesn't
+ work properly, though.
+ - 0x08: generated: True if the block has been generated. If false, block
+ is mostly filled with CONTENT_IGNORE and is likely to contain eg. parts
+ of trees of neighboring blocks.
+
+u8 content_width
+- Number of bytes in the content (param0) fields of nodes
+if map format version <= 23:
+ - Always 1
+if map format version >= 24:
+ - Always 2
+
+u8 params_width
+- Number of bytes used for parameters per node
+- Always 2
+
+zlib-compressed node data:
+if content_width == 1:
+ - content:
+ u8[4096]: param0 fields
+ u8[4096]: param1 fields
+ u8[4096]: param2 fields
+if content_width == 2:
+ - content:
+ u16[4096]: param0 fields
+ u8[4096]: param1 fields
+ u8[4096]: param2 fields
+- The location of a node in each of those arrays is (z*16*16 + y*16 + x).
+
+zlib-compressed node metadata list
+- content:
+ u16 version (=1)
+ u16 count of metadata
+ foreach count:
+ u16 position (p.Z*MAP_BLOCKSIZE*MAP_BLOCKSIZE + p.Y*MAP_BLOCKSIZE + p.X)
+ u16 type_id
+ u16 content_size
+ u8[content_size] (content of metadata)
+
+- Node timers
+if map format version == 23:
+ u8 unused version (always 0)
+if map format version == 24: (NOTE: Not released as stable)
+ u8 nodetimer_version
+ if nodetimer_version == 0:
+ (nothing else)
+ if nodetimer_version == 1:
+ u16 num_of_timers
+ foreach num_of_timers:
+ u16 timer position (z*16*16 + y*16 + x)
+ s32 timeout*1000
+ s32 elapsed*1000
+
+u8 static object version:
+- Always 0
+
+u16 static_object_count
+
+foreach static_object_count:
+ u8 type (object type-id)
+ s32 pos_x_nodes * 10000
+ s32 pos_y_nodes * 10000
+ s32 pos_z_nodes * 10000
+ u16 data_size
+ u8[data_size] data
+
+u32 timestamp
+- Timestamp when last saved, as seconds from starting the game.
+- 0xffffffff = invalid/unknown timestamp, nothing should be done with the time
+ difference when loaded
+
+u8 name-id-mapping version
+- Always 0
+
+u16 num_name_id_mappings
+
+foreach num_name_id_mappings
+ u16 id
+ u16 name_len
+ u8[name_len] name
+
+- Node timers
+if map format version == 25:
+ u8 length of the data of a single timer (always 2+4+4=10)
+ u16 num_of_timers
+ foreach num_of_timers:
+ u16 timer position (z*16*16 + y*16 + x)
+ s32 timeout*1000
+ s32 elapsed*1000
+
+EOF.
+
+Format of nodes
+----------------
+A node is composed of the u8 fields param0, param1 and param2.
+
+if map format version <= 23:
+ The content id of a node is determined as so:
+ - If param0 < 0x80,
+ content_id = param0
+ - Otherwise
+ content_id = (param0<<4) + (param2>>4)
+if map format version >= 24:
+ The content id of a node is param0.
+
+The purpose of param1 and param2 depend on the definition of the node.
+
+The name-id-mapping
+--------------------
+The mapping maps node content ids to node names.
+
+Node metadata format
+---------------------
+
+1: Generic metadata
+ serialized inventory
+ u32 len
+ u8[len] text
+ u16 len
+ u8[len] owner
+ u16 len
+ u8[len] infotext
+ u16 len
+ u8[len] inventory drawspec
+ u8 allow_text_input (bool)
+ u8 removal_disabled (bool)
+ u8 enforce_owner (bool)
+ u32 num_vars
+ foreach num_vars
+ u16 len
+ u8[len] name
+ u32 len
+ u8[len] value
+
+14: Sign metadata
+ u16 text_len
+ u8[text_len] text
+
+15: Chest metadata
+ serialized inventory
+
+16: Furnace metadata
+ TBD
+
+17: Locked Chest metadata
+ u16 len
+ u8[len] owner
+ serialized inventory
+
+Static objects
+---------------
+Static objects are persistent freely moving objects in the world.
+
+Object types:
+1: Test object
+2: Item
+3: Rat (deprecated)
+4: Oerkki (deprecated)
+5: Firefly (deprecated)
+6: MobV2 (deprecated)
+7: LuaEntity
+
+1: Item:
+ u8 version
+ version 0:
+ u16 len
+ u8[len] itemstring
+
+7: LuaEntity:
+ u8 version
+ version 1:
+ u16 len
+ u8[len] entity name
+ u32 len
+ u8[len] static data
+ s16 hp
+ s32 velocity.x * 10000
+ s32 velocity.y * 10000
+ s32 velocity.z * 10000
+ s32 yaw * 1000
+
+Itemstring format
+------------------
+eg. 'default:dirt 5'
+eg. 'default:pick_wood 21323'
+eg. '"default:apple" 2'
+eg. 'default:apple'
+- The wear value in tools is 0...65535
+- There are also a number of older formats that you might stumble upon:
+eg. 'node "default:dirt" 5'
+eg. 'NodeItem default:dirt 5'
+eg. 'ToolItem WPick 21323'
+
+Inventory serialization format
+-------------------------------
+- The inventory serialization format is line-based
+- The newline character used is "\n"
+- The end condition of a serialized inventory is always "EndInventory\n"
+- All the slots in a list must always be serialized.
+
+Example (format does not include "---"):
+---
+List foo 4
+Item default:sapling
+Item default:sword_stone 1 10647
+Item default:dirt 99
+Empty
+EndInventoryList
+List bar 9
+Empty
+Empty
+Empty
+Empty
+Empty
+Empty
+Empty
+Empty
+Empty
+EndInventoryList
+EndInventory

+==============================================
+Minetest World Format used as of 2011-05 or so
+==============================================
+
+Map data serialization format version 17.
+
+0.3.1 does not use this format, but a more recent one. This exists here for
+historical reasons.
+
+Directory structure:
+sectors/XXXXZZZZ or sectors2/XXX/ZZZ
+XXXX, ZZZZ, XXX and ZZZ being the hexadecimal X and Z coordinates.
+Under these, the block files are stored, called YYYY.
+
+There also exists files map_meta.txt and chunk_meta, that are used by the
+generator. If they are not found or invalid, the generator will currently
+behave quite strangely.
+
+The MapBlock file format (sectors2/XXX/ZZZ/YYYY):
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+NOTE: Byte order is MSB first.
+
+u8 version
+- map format version number, this one is version 17
+
+u8 flags
+- Flag bitmasks:
+ - 0x01: is_underground: Should be set to 0 if there will be no light
+ obstructions above the block. If/when sunlight of a block is updated and
+ there is no block above it, this value is checked for determining whether
+ sunlight comes from the top.
+ - 0x02: day_night_differs: Whether the lighting of the block is different on
+ day and night. Only blocks that have this bit set are updated when day
+ transforms to night.
+ - 0x04: lighting_expired: If true, lighting is invalid and should be updated.
+ If you can't calculate lighting in your generator properly, you could try
+ setting this 1 to everything and setting the uppermost block in every
+ sector as is_underground=0. I am quite sure it doesn't work properly,
+ though.
+
