As I find myself with some free time I would like to offer helping out in this project, but I don't know where to best start or where my help would be most appreciated.
What you can expect from me; I've written a ton of Lua, I know C, mostly from programming µCs (and courses), and a few other languages. I don't consider myself proficient in C++ yet, but I do know OOP from Java (so, how hard can it be™ - right...?)
Right now I think I need to get to know the codebase first, so if you have any direct ideas of issues for me where to start - just throw them at me before I step on any existing planning...
I saw that issue (https://github.com/cuberite/cuberite/issues/4363) which looks like a good opportunity to start with and get to know the C codebase as it looks fairly simple, not sure on the Lua side, I looked over the issues, but many of them seemed to depend on some design decision
I can also certainly help look through old issues that may be not applicable anymore for one reason or another, but I'd rather code
Cheers
