[Mod] Hiking [hiking]

[martian]

Hiking signs are common where I come from (not glowing ones, but neither are torches.) Missing them in minetest. Not any more! :-)

Signs are applied to rocks, tree trunks, walls. And where there are no objects to apply them to, often poles are used to mark the path. (Very useful in winter.) There are four common colours used: red, blue, yellow and green. Red and blue are mostly used for longer tracks, while yellow and green for local ones or to connect blues and reds.

Spoiler

I think this would be great with paramat's trail.

So glad you like them. The Sunday was not wasted though my significant other would likely disagree. Though he can do /home I do not want my boy to get lost in the country so we spent the day learning lua and fixing and working around issues with multi-storey items. Enjoy!

Looks stellar, definitely going to download and review.

I found a few things that looked like errors when I was doing my review video, created a pull request fixing them. Feel free to merge or not. :)
