For example, signs and clocks. Display can be dynamic and/or different for each node instance. + +**Limitations**: This lib uses entities to draw display. This means display has to be vertical (and "upside up") on Minetest before version 5.0. + +**Dependancies**:default + +**License**: LGPLv2 + +**API**: See [API.md](https://github.com/pyrollo/display_modpack/blob/master/display_api/API.md) document please. + +For more information, see the [forum topic](https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?t=19365) at the Minetest forums. + +## Deprecation notice (for modders) + +### December 2018 +Following objects are deprecated, shows a warning in log when used: +* `display_modpack_node` group (use `display_api` group instead); +* `display_lib_node` group (use `display_api` group instead); +* `display_lib` global table (use `display_api` global table instead); + +These objects will be removed in the future. + +## Change log +### 2019-03-14 +- __dispay_api__: Display API now detects automatically whenr rotation restrictions have to be applied. + +### 2019-03-09 +- __display_api__: Display nodes can be rotated in every directions (if running Minetest 5 or above). +- __display_api__: New setting to restrict rotations to Minetest 0.4 abilities (restriction enabled by default). + +### 2018-12-14 +- __display_api__: New `yaw` attributes, entities can now have different angles with node. |
