Subject: Fix incorrect distance computation for visible blocks (#4765)
X-Git-Tag: 0.4.15~123
X-Git-Url: https://git.librecmc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b98f98b367f2c55d5a0bff4bafaaa183b3746403;p=oweals%2Fminetest.git

Fix incorrect distance computation for visible blocks (#4765)

The client would not compute the distance from the camera to
to a mapblock correctly. The result was that blocks that were in
view (i.e. not beyond the fog limit) would not be rendered.

With the improved distance computation, a range adjustment that
existed in clientiface.cpp is no longer required.
