See the doc comments in `common/src/vol.rs` for more information on
the API itself.
The changes include:
* Consistent `Err`/`Error` naming.
* Types are named `...Error`.
* `enum` variants are named `...Err`.
* Rename `VolMap{2d, 3d}` -> `VolGrid{2d, 3d}`. This is in preparation
to an upcoming change where a “map” in the game related sense will
be added.
* Add volume iterators. There are two types of them:
* _Position_ iterators obtained from the trait `IntoPosIterator`
using the method
`fn pos_iter(self, lower_bound: Vec3<i32>, upper_bound: Vec3<i32>) -> ...`
which returns an iterator over `Vec3<i32>`.
* _Volume_ iterators obtained from the trait `IntoVolIterator`
using the method
`fn vol_iter(self, lower_bound: Vec3<i32>, upper_bound: Vec3<i32>) -> ...`
which returns an iterator over `(Vec3<i32>, &Self::Vox)`.
Those traits will usually be implemented by references to volume
types (i.e. `impl IntoVolIterator<'a> for &'a T` where `T` is some
type which usually implements several volume traits, such as `Chunk`).
* _Position_ iterators iterate over the positions valid for that
volume.
* _Volume_ iterators do the same but return not only the position
but also the voxel at that position, in each iteration.
* Introduce trait `RectSizedVol` for the use case which we have with
`Chonk`: A `Chonk` is sized only in x and y direction.
* Introduce traits `RasterableVol`, `RectRasterableVol`
* `RasterableVol` represents a volume that is compile-time sized and has
its lower bound at `(0, 0, 0)`. The name `RasterableVol` was chosen
because such a volume can be used with `VolGrid3d`.
* `RectRasterableVol` represents a volume that is compile-time sized at
least in x and y direction and has its lower bound at `(0, 0, z)`.
There's no requirement on he lower bound or size in z direction.
The name `RectRasterableVol` was chosen because such a volume can be
used with `VolGrid2d`.
Humidity and temperature are now indexed to uniform altitude *over land
chunks* (and water chunks adjacent to land) rather than over the whole
range of altitude. This is necessary in order to satisfy the uniformity
conditions of the formula for weighted sum CDF.
Additionally, fixes the computation of whether a tree should be
generated or not. Previously, it was using a source of randomness
scaled to use much less than the full 0-1 range; this has been resolved.
This makes for much nicer and more gradual transitions between densities
and reduces the amount of completely barren landscapes, while also
making forests larger.
Finally, this commit adds a server command, debug_column, which returns
some useful debug information about a column given an x and y
coordinate. This is useful for debugging worldgen.
