For use on servers that have a mainly creative purpose, the setting
enable_corium_griefing=false will prevent corium from flowing far or
unpredictably and from destroying nodes other than water. All reactor
meltdowns will stay contained.
Reactor `explosion' now replaces the reactor core with a corium source
node. Corium is a new liquid, which flows a bit like lava, but has
the additional feature of destroying nodes to which it is adjacent.
It also randomly turns into a solid form, chernobylite, which makes an
attractive building block. It thus gradually melts its way through the
reactor shielding layers; a meltdown gets worse over time if not cleaned
up promptly.
The mechanism for an active reactor core to damage nearby players is
generalised into a "radioactive" node group. Corium and chernobylite
are radioactive, to varying degrees. Players receive a varying amount of
damage from a radioactive node, depending on proximity. Staying outside
a reactor cube is sufficient to be safe from the active core, but not
sufficient to be safe from a melted core.
Drop support for negative mesecon control. This requires users of
negative mesecon control to invert their mesecon signal externally.
Comment on rationale for the way toggle buttons in formspec are managed.
The code formerly attempted to make the forcefield emitter controlled
both manually and by (inverted) mesecon signal, but the two interfered
with each other. In particular, a newly-placed emitted would be
informed that it was getting no mesecon signal, and would therefore
enable itself. Fix this by adding explicit modes for how the emitter
will respond to mesecon signals: ignore them, obey them positively,
or obey them negatively.
The manual control could have been incorporated into this mode setting
by having two "ignore mesecon" modes: always-enabled and always-disabled.
But it seems more useful to have a separate manual master switch, so that
the emitter can be manually disabled without losing the mesecon mode.
So it is now implemented that way.
LV cables are now paper-insulated, rather than uninsulated (which made
no sense). MV cables are rubber-insulated as before. HV cables are now
plastic-insulated (which they already visually appeared to be). MV and
HV cables are still crafted by adding insulation onto lower-tier cable,
rather than by insulating raw copper; this matches the way machines are
upgraded between tiers rather than crafted afresh.
All electric machine recipes now include cable of the appropriate tier
as the bottom-middle ingredient, immediately below the casing ingredient.
Many LV machines were using a copper ingot in that location.
Commit ee0765804c broke the fuel-fired alloy
furnace, by removing the definition of its formspec that it requires to
set up the form upon construction.
A typo in commit d55ecc39f9 made recipes
for alloy cooking, compressing, and all other craft types sharing that
machine code, to be shown with three ingredient slots instead of the
correct one or two.
The size configuration is no longer cleared when exiting the dialog with
<esc>. The enable/disable toggle button now indicates the current state.
The name of the toggle button now varies according to state, so that
pressing the button multiple times in one state (which can arise due
to lag making the user unsure about whether the first press registered)
only makes the state change that the user requested, rather than toggling
repeatedly.
All electrically-powered machines now consistently indicate their
tier (supply voltage) in their names. As this implies that they are
electrically powered, the furnaces no longer have "Electric" in their
names. The fuel-fired equivalents of electric machines, which exist
for alloy furnace and furnace, now say "Fuel-Fired" to distinguish them.
(The fuel-fired alloy furnace used to say "Coal", which was inaccurate
because it uses any fuel. The fuel-fired furnace, from the default mod,
used to just be called "Furnace", which is ambiguous.)
Electric power generators now consistently indicate their tier and have
the word "Generator" in their names. This makes their purpose much
clearer, and makes obvious craft guide searches produce useful results.
The fuel-fired generators, previously just (ambiguously) called
"Generator", are now explicitly "Fuel-Fired".
To support the glooptest mod (successor of gloopores), define the
gloopores lump->dust grinding recipes if either of the mods is available.
(Formerly only "gloopores" was supported.) Define kalite dust item,
which was previously missing. Make gloop ingots grindable to dust as the
non-gloop ingots already are; incidentally refactor this to automatically
make ingots grindable whenever the ingot can be made by cooking dust.
Add textures for all the gloop dusts. Do the "Steel"->"Iron" renaming
for glooptest-defined tools and items.

The quarry was digging via dig_node and also manually putting the node's
drops into the tube system. This assumed that dig_node would attempt
to put the drops in the player's inventory, doing nothing if there is
no such inventory. With the item_drop mod installed, dig_node would
instead turn the node into an item entity, so the quarry's strategy would
duplicate the item, making it appear both as an item entity in situ and
as an item in the tube. Instead, the quarry must use remove_node when
it manually processes the drops, just like the pipeworks node breaker.
Override the default mod's iron/steel substance, replacing it with three
metals: wrought iron (pure iron), carbon steel (iron alloyed with a little
carbon), and cast iron (iron alloyed with lots of carbon). Wrought iron
is easiest to refine, then cast iron, and carbon steel the most difficult,
matching the historical progression. Recipes that used default steel are
changed to use one of the three, the choice of alloy for each application
being both somewhat realistic and also matching up with game progression.
The default:steel{_ingot,block} items are identified specifically with
wrought iron. This makes the default refining recipes work appropriately.
Iron-using recipes defined outside technic are thus necessarily
reinterpreted to use wrought iron, which is mostly appropriate.
Some objects are renamed accordingly.
Rather than use the default steel textures for wrought iron, with technic
providing textures for the other two, technic now provides textures for
all three metals. This avoids problems that would occur with texture
packs that provide default_steel_{ingot,block} textures that are not
intended to support this wrought-iron/carbon-steel/cast-iron distinction.
A texture pack can provide a distinct set of three textures specifically
for the situation where this distinction is required.
Incidentally make grinding and alloy cooking recipes work correctly when
ingredients are specified by alias.
Supply the on_refill hook for power tools and cans, to perform appropriate
charging. This is to be used by unified_inventory's creative-mode
refill slot.
The tool workshop is meant to repair mechanical damage to tools, so
is at risk of `repairing' tools that use the wear bar to represent
something other than mechanical wear. It had special-case recognition
of the water and lava cans, which use the wear bar to represent how much
content they're carrying, and wouldn't repair them. But it didn't avoid
`repairing' RE chargeable items, which use the wear bar to represent
how much energy they have stored. It would modify the wear bar without
actually affecting the charge, so the wear bar would jump back to the
correct place when the next charging or discharging event occurred.
To genericise, introduce a new item property, "wear_represents", which
indicates how the wear bar is used for this item. Currently defined
values are "mechanical_wear" (straightforward damage to tools that
start out perfect), "technic_RE_charge" (electrical energy, canonically
represented in the meta rather than the wear bar), and "content_level"
(how full a container is). For backcompat, nil is interpreted as
"mechanical_wear". The tool workshop will only repair "mechanical_wear"
tools. As a bonus, set_RE_wear() will only set the wear bar for
"technic_RE_charge" items: this means developers will notice if they
forget to declare wear_represents, but also means that with no further
changes it's possible to have an RE chargeable item that uses its wear
bar to represent something else.
The injector was in no groups, and therefore not breakable by ordinary
means. This was because the code referred to a defined variable that
went away in the course of a rewrite of the chests code.
the first-seen tier for which the machine was registered. So the
switching station, which is uniquely registered for all tiers, would
only visually connect to LV cable when placed, not to MV or HV cable.
(It would function nevertheless, and cable would connect to the switching
station if placed later.) Change to consider all tiers. Incidentally
avoid a gratuitous iteration through all registered machines.
Disable the flashlight by default.
Use itemstack:{get,set}_{metadata,name,wear,...} rather than {to,from}_table.
Improve the style of part of the code of mischelaneous tools
The idle condition for mv mashines is changed to what it should be
because sending items into the tube is done in idle, so we only care
if there is something left in src
Theyre already tiered with Mk1-3 (at least drill is, more in the future).
Tools can be considered as designed for different tiers of circuits thx to their power needs.
For example Mk3 will require ages to load in LV batbox.
Batboxes load tools timining: LV standard (1000EU), MV 4x faster (4000EU), HV 16x faster (16000EU)
Also since 1EU is the same in any circuit it is possible to move energy from one to another with portable devices like crystals.
Other changes:
- moved charge/discharge functions to battery_boxes_commons.lua
- added UI style backgrounds for all the batboxes
