 Meshes

 If drawtype `mesh` is used, tiles should hold model materials textures.
 Only static meshes are implemented.

+Rooted plantlike drawtype
+-------------------------
+The `plantlike_rooted` drawtype was developed to enable underwater plants
+without air bubbles around the plants.
+It consists of a base cube at the co-ordinates of the node (the seabed /
+lakebed / riverbed node) plus a 'plantlike' extension above with a height
+defined by param2 (maximum height 16 nodes). This extension visually passes
+through any nodes above the base cube without affecting them.
+The node is dug by digging the base cube.
+The base cube texture tiles are defined as normal, the plantlike extension
+uses the defined 'special tile', for example:
+`special_tiles = {{name = "default_papyrus.png", tileable_vertical = true}},`
