+**The changes break a few minor things:**
   * The signal aspect formspec uses dropdown indexing, which requires Minetest 5.4.0 or later.

     * The signal aspect is "adjusted" before being passed to the signal, i.e., the signal aspect passed to the signal is not guaranteed to be the same as the one passed to ''advtrains.interlocking.signal_set_aspect''.
     * ''advtrains.interlocking.signal_get_real_aspect'' gets the aspect of the signal directly from the node definitions. Note that, especially for Ks signals, the result is not guaranteed to be constant
-    * There is no API for setting the signal aspect while bypassing the cache and signal aspect adjustments, as the latter is sometimes necessary with the introduction of type 2 signals. **Do not call the ''advtrains.set_aspect'' function in the node definitions directly.**
