This was intended to address the problem that ender pearls would not stop on grass, saplings, and other similar objects. However, they don't stop on such objects in MCPE anyway, only PC.
this fixes effect durations being off (mostly), closes#2650
there are still some minor differences, but this is closer matching than the previous version.
This will now throw an exception at the source instead of crashing when the entity is saved, which should put the blame on the correct plugin responsible for this.
This also includes magic method hacks to preserve backwards compatibility, since the fireTicks field is now protected.
This is better for performance because these then don't need to be reevaluated every time they are called.
When encountering an unqualified function or constant reference, PHP will first try to locate a symbol in the current namespace by that name, and then fall back to the global namespace.
This short-circuits the check, which has substantial performance effects in some cases - in particular, ord(), chr() and strlen() show ~1500x faster calls when they are fully qualified.
However, this doesn't mean that PM is getting a massive amount faster. In real world terms, this translates to about 10-15% performance improvement.
But before anyone gets excited, you should know that the CodeOptimizer in the PreProcessor repo has been applying fully-qualified symbol optimizations to Jenkins builds for years, which is one of the reasons why Jenkins builds have better performance than home-built or source installations.
We're choosing to do this for the sake of future SafePHP integration and also to be able to get rid of the buggy CodeOptimizer, so that phar and source are more consistent.
This has the triple bonus effect of a) making a lot of code easier to read, b) reducing Server::getInstance() usages, and c) removing a whole bunch of Server dependencies.
The network and block namespaces are untouched by this commit due to potential for merge conflicts. These should be dealt with separately on master.
This allows controlling how arrows are picked up:
- by anything
- by only creative players
- by nothing
This adds new API methods to Arrow:
- getPickupMode()
- setPickupMode()
This adds new public constants to Arrow:
- PICKUP_NONE
- PICKUP_ANY
- PICKUP_CREATIVE
PhpStorm can't see these or understand how they are being called, which is very annoying for bug hunting. Additionally, we already have the CodeOptimizer for this.
MOP doesn't make any sense anyway.
RayTraceResult is a container which represents the point at which a line hits a bounding box. No dependence on blocks or entities is wanted or needed.
MovingObjectPosition has API changes to allow it to wrap RayTraceResult, but nothing uses MOP anymore anyway.
This would allow modularisation of the pocketmine\\math namespace.
