Minetest_game: New flower name?

Created on 13 May 2017  路  6Comments  路  Source: minetest/minetest_game

White Dandelion:
white
Yellow Dandelion:
yellow

I think the textures of white dandelions and yellow dandelions don't match with their names.
Options:

  • change the texture of white dandelions

  • rename white dandelions

Some possible names: chamomile, daisy

I'm happy with daisy because it seems like a flower most people know about, like "rose" and "lily". (Although probably because they are so commonly used in people's names)

We should not rename, to avoid disruption and an alias.
The textures seem fairly accurate, maybe the yellow one can be smaller to match in size, and also occur in a small bunch.

@paramat Actually, from personal experience, I think the textures are reversed. The white dandelion should be the lone, tall flower and the yellow dandelion should be several small flowers.

Also, at this level of definition, white dandelions shouldn't have a yellow core, they should just have a fluffy white ball as a flower.

Google Images for "dandelion"

(Actually, looking at Google Images, the core of a white dandelion shouldn't even be yellow, it's closer to dark green or even black.)

The fluffy ball is the seed phase, the flower itself has a yellow centre.
My feeling is to have these the same rough height, both bunches, and derive the yellow dandelion from the white dandelion texture. The short bunches look better to me and are better scale.

PR #1749

1749 merged. The textures do match the names well.
