API to register more leaky nodes

[tuedel]

It would be great to have some kind of API for adding more leaky nodes, though I'm not sure how to do this properly without much performance impact.

I don't suppose changing an ABM is possible after registration?

Edit: At least there could be a group:leaky which other mods can use.

Sounds like a sane idea

I think it should be doable with minetest.register_on_mods_loaded(function()) and a basic registration api..

Even better, if that works 👍

I need to use vacuum for a project if i get ultra motivated i'll add an easy reg or as workaround:
~ Open physics_leakage.lua
~ line 11 add nodes group or node name to end eg

-- air leaking nodes
local leaky_nodes = {
	"group:door",
	"group:soil",
	"group:pipe", 
        "group:tube",
        "group:new_group",
        "modname:node_name"
}

save and launch game, nodes should now leak like sieve.
