This allows to save the language without rewriting pocketmine.yml. Since this is a "standard" config option (something that the user might want to directly modify) it's reasonable to put it in server.properties. pocketmine.yml is generally reserved for more advanced configuration options.
This is annoying and it requires that the server must match this precisely to not cause bugs. Additionally, this code shits its pants when the client hits a spot of network lag.
This can be implemented easily as a plugin. There is no reason whatsoever for this to be in the core.
since we don't have a stats server at the moment, this simply causes long delays on server stop while the server instance attempts to communicate with stats.pocketmine.net.
the footprint of compressed chunk batches is so small now that it doesn't make sense to disable it out of the box. The performance gains from caching chunks are more than worth it.
As of 1.2, the average footprint of these caches is usually ~2% or less of the size of the actual chunk itself. Moving around a lot will frequently cause the same chunks to get sent several times as it passes in and out of your render distance, and the chunk isn't even changing in that time, so the chunk is getting needlessly re-serialized over and over again. So even if your world is not static (for example a creative server) chunk caching will still offer benefits, and the memory expense is so small it's a no-brainer.
Re-implement chunk sending, send chunks inside a radius instead of below a count
This sends chunks in concentric squares around players. When the radius is hit, it will pad out the radius until a full circle of chunks is loaded around the player.
TODO: implement radius-per-tick, send chunks in concentric circles, use radius for player spawning.
To set your server chunk radius, change `view-distance` in server.properties. Values are intended to be the same as MCPE render distance values. With matching client and server render distances the chunks should reach the horizon.
NOTE: You may notice significantly increased memory usage per player when increasing these values to something respectable. This is normal and expected.
A player with render distance 14 for example will cause loading of 600+ chunks. A player cannot however exceed the render distance limit set in server.properties - the server will simply not send any more chunks.
Render distance of 8 chunks is approximately 200 chunks. This is roughly equivalent to the original default max-chunks of 192 in pocketmine.yml, but sent in a circle instead of a square.
Wait for client to request a chunk radius before ordering chunks
Use 8 for default maximum radius (roughly matches old setting of 192)
Calculate spawn chunk count from chunk-sending.spawn-radius
* Added options to disable movement checks and anti-instabreak and API methods to control this
* Fixed anti-flight false positives
* Fix flight toggle kick cannot be disabled
* Added PlayerIllegalMoveEvent
Refactored level\format\generic\GenericChunk -> level\format\Chunk.
Re-added support for async chunk sending
Refactored most Level IO into new namespaces for more organisation
Removed LevelDB loader completely (will be re-added at a later date)
