`perlin` | Perlin noise. Functional, but currently contains artefacts I'm having difficulty tracking down.
`perlinmt` | **Default**.Perlin noise, backed by Minetest's inbuilt `PerlinNoise` class.

`sin` | A sine wave created with `math.sin()`.
`white` | Random white noise.
`red` | Red noise - has a lower frequency than white noise. Ref [Noise Functions and Map Generation by Red Blob Games](https://www.redblobgames.com/articles/noise/introduction.html).

```
## `//noiseapply2d <threshold> <scale> <command_name> <args>`
Like [`//ellipsoidapply`](#ellipsoidapply), but instead only keeps changes where a noise function (defaults to `perlinmt`, see [`//noise2d`](#noise2d)) returns a value greater than a given threshold value.
Also takes a scale value that controls the scale of the noise - -higher values result in smaller "blobs". If you're operating on small areas, then a value of at least 10 is advised as "blobs" are by default on the scale of ~50 nodes.
As with `//ellipsoidapply` for advanced users `//multi` is also supported - but make sure your modifications stay within the defined region - otherwise they be kept regardless, as `//noiseapply2d` only applies the masking to the nodes in the defined region.
Any suggestions on how to provide more customisability without making this command more difficult to use or significantly more inconsistent with other `//*apply` functions are welcome - please [open an issue](https://github.com/sbrl/Minetest-WorldEditAdditions/issues/new).

## `//scol [<axis1> ] <length>`
Short for _select column_. Sets the pos2 at a set distance along 1 axis from pos1. If the axis isn't specified, defaults the direction you are facing. Implementation thanks to @VorTechnix.
