Gravel tool feedback incorrect #1

Closed CubicMelon closed 6 years ago

CubicMelon commented 6 years ago

For some reason default:gravel is reported as unable to be mined (red) in tool information line when wielding a non-shovel but can be mined by most anything. Hand tool can mine crumbly but is still reporting red?

Correction: hand tool (and by extension, "holding a node" tool) DOES correctly reflect as green for gravel nodes. Only other tools like axes, picks, and swords report red yet can mine it

Upon further testing this seems to affect all "crumbly" nodes for some reason. Apparently there is some aspect of the mining system that is not being accounted for.

As noted by sofar at https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=19183:

Even while wielding a tool that is incapable of digging a specific node type, you are also in the possession of the "hand" item. In most games, the hand is capable of removing a bunch of nodes that e.g. a pickaxe isn't capable of. If the pickaxe fails to dig a node, the hand tool capabilities will be used.
