attempt to auto figure out good chest texture

[wsor4035]

trying to do this so dont have to hardcoded texture support for games, was using this for mcl before giving up

if not minetest.get_modpath("default") then
	minetest.register_on_mods_loaded(function()
		local top_chest_tex
		for name, def in pairs(minetest.registered_nodes) do
			if string.match((name:split(":")[2] or ""), "chest") and def.tiles and not def.mesh then
				top_chest_tex = def.tiles[1]
			end
		end
		if top_chest_tex then
			minetest.override_item("bridges:bridge_auto", {tiles = {top_chest_tex}})
		end
	end)
end

so
what if we used xcompat to get a chest item
then used that to get a chest texture

[wsor4035]

xcompat could just have node textures. this issue is probably from before xcompat existed
