This should lower the gap between the SP and MP
experience, since generally tools recharge all day on
MP but only when playing for SP.
Nerfing lux tool capacity should reduce the tendency
to rely on lux for everything after a certain point.
As always, boosted lux is exempt.
These things are way too durable as they are, and it's
actually kind of game-breaking. Players with lux
tools are in an entirely different class from players
without.
Instead, players should be forced to invest more in
lux reactors, or rely more on tempered lode as an
"everyday" tool and use lux for special projects.
Boosted lux is exempt from this nerf, and is now 4
times as durable as ordinary lux. It might not be a
bad idea to allow them not to experience any wear
at all when boosted...
Stone is hardened by creating an elecric field via the Peltier
effect that causes internal crystals to align. Or something like
that.
Stone hardens over time when touching both lava and water.
All stratafiable stone types (lode sign, lode ore, lux ore) are
affected.
Don't reuse damage_per_second for damage on punch and radiant
damage. This allows these to be defined separately, i.e. no longer
assuming that all damage is from "heat" and can radiate. This
allows for things like thorny plants that hurt if you touch them
or stand in them but not if you stand near them.
Thanks to WintersKnight94 for reporting this.
This reverts commit 4a13733e68903904e088fe21d86dec6d927ee7d8.
While I'm still not happy with the desciptions, we probably need
some sensible way to talk about these in chat, wikis, etc.
This always felt kinda redundant and the names
themselves never seemed all that great.
For Lux Burns in particular, I'd rather the radiation
symbol speak for itself.
- No day/night cycle, no sun/moon.
- Get rid of clouds too.
- Skybox is now 100% texture-packable.
- Natural light diminishes with depth.
Night-time no longer disrupts gameplay topside, but
skylights are no longer useful to an infinite depth and
artificial light is necessary for all deep mining.
Treat all API mods as a "layer", and use the new
nc_api_all registration to indicate that a mod depends
on the NC API (which ALL NC mods assume they do).
This means that each non-API mod does not need to
worry about which API mods it really needs and which
it does not, nor will they need to be updated for any
internal API restructures.
This is a game, not a modpack, so all mods will be
loaded anyway, and we only care about order. That
means that we don't really need to worry about
having excess dependencies because any mod we
don't actually need will be needed by something that's
loaded anyway. If somebody wants to reuse a
component elsewhere, they're likely to need to do
some work to untangle it anyway, because of the
amount that NodeCore mechanics interact and
interdepend.
This created a ton of dependency inversions, which
necessitated moving a number of API functions up into
higher layers, and restructuring dependency lists for
a number of mods.
BOLO: non-deterministic load errors due to missed
dependencies.
Infusion of worn tools is slightly faster, but drops off
quickly as tools are more full. Lux tools can effectively
NEVER be perfectly unworn anymore.
This helps balance out lux tools, which, once
unlocked, were also obviating the need for proper tool
resource management, since they could recharge
so easily if you had a spare set in the reactor.
Now, players need to pay attention to which tools are
most/least worn, and keep the most worn ones
infusing to ensure the reactor resource is being used
most effectively.
AISM's now tick against stacks, including in piles, shelves,
and player inventories, (hopefully) efficiently compared to
the old way with separate ABMs. Item entity support is also
possible, but not necessary yet.
This started out as a bugfix for being able to put a torch inside a
shelf, which didn't make much sense gameplay-wise. It ended up
going quite a bit further.
- Aggregate now gets wet in stack form. Swimming with dry
concrete now has consequences.
- Lux reactions, radiation, and infusion should now behave more
consistently.
- Sponges can now wet or dry in stack form, including inside
containers.
- Torch ignition, quenching, and extinguishing is now more
consistent regardless of context, and torches are now more
dangerous, and can ignite things in more contexts.
Guarantee 2 usable slots no matter how many different
injury effects accumulate.
Filled slots will be shared among different damage types
roughly proportionally.
Comb through issues. Shelve some of them. Fix a couple.
Add some ideas and reorganize/recombine others.
Lux tools should infuse in any open container, so shelves should
work fine too.
- Collapse all nodecore "core" mods in the /mods listing, so it's
easier to find the actual add-on mods.
- Parameterize in-game branding to make renaming derivatives just
a little easier.
