Add simple lighting (sun), and point light sources (torches, etc.)

This will require writing some simple LightSource classes. OpenGL has a few different types of lights with logs of parameters. It will require a little bit of OpenGL knowledge to write these classes but, once written, will be easy to use to add lights emitting to different things.

Yes, actually a dynamic lighting system would be interesting. I have resumed my work for textures and all the graphics, and with the addition of a lighting system everything will look more beautiful. Thank you for your cooperation.

Speaking of textures, I have already created a branch with separate textures. You can see them here: https://github.com/benmoran56/TerraCraft/tree/independent_images/assets/textures
It allows you to create one image per block. To load them we use the pyglet.resource module, so that internally they are put into an TextureBin (sprite sheet) for performance.

There is one problem, which is why I have not merged the changes. Some of the textures look blurry. Currently, we are setting the texture scaling to "nearest" to have a pixelated appearance. However, when using the pyglet text module, the texture scaling gets reset. This can make the block textures blurry. The next pyglet release has a new option to change the default texture scaling for all textures, so maybe we can wait for that version.

Interesting then pixel perfection and smooth (active / deactivated) will be in the new features of the next release? thanks for the news. Surely it is something very useful. Thank you.
