Don't load the whole digging area when only a small piece is relevant.
Also, move the (time expensive) check whether the air above a block is free to the last position, which spares unneccessary checks when multiple quarries are placed together, or a quarry has to loop over air for another reason.
The changes that this covers are that the alloy furnaces now have one
"src" inventory instead of a "src" and "src2"; that the tool workshop
is now MV; and the existence of MV compressor, extractor, and centrifuge.
Squeeze the range of material shielding values. The strongest shielding
materials get weaker, and weaker shielding materials, especially low-end
ones such as dirt, get stronger. The radioactivity of the active
reactor core is increased so that the standard shielding is (still)
only narrowly sufficient.
Make the "radioactive" group value be the safe distance in millimeters
rather than meters, to allow for intermediate values. Use such
intermediate values for the uranium blocks, using the existing formula
with this finer quantisation. All other radioactive nodes retain their
existing radioactivity exactly.
Tool workshop can now accept tools to repair via tube. It has upgrade
slots. Battery upgrade reduces its power consumption. Tube upgrade
makes it eject fully-repaired (or unrepairable) items via tube.
Make the generic processing machine code willing to complete more than
one processing cycle in one ABM cycle, and more generally to carry
over leftover processing effort after completing a processing cycle.
The src_time meta item now represents accumulated processing effort
(time multiplied by speed) in a scaled form (to retain fractions),
rather than just time in integral seconds. This affects the MV furnace,
with speed 4 and most recipe times being 3 s, and will be essential for
faster furnaces.
The quarry used to get stuck when it encountered an undiggable node.
Change it to skip past that node, digging whatever later stuff it can.
Necessarily, the current digging position becomes semantically-significant
state: it is no longer sufficient to search the quarry cuboid from the top
on each iteration. The current digging height is reported in the quarry's
interaction form, and can be reset to the top using a button on the form.
Where there is a non-air node within the quarry directly above the
next node to dig, it blocks the quarry's access to that node, even if
everything involved is diggable. Thus an undiggable node casts a shadow
of undug nodes below it. Resolving undiggability of a node is a major
reason to use the restart button.
The switching station and supply converter only semantically connect to
cables in particular directions. Make them visually connect only in
the matching directions. This is done by special-casing in the cable
update logic. If more irregular items arise in the future, or the
existing items start to need facedir logic, this should be generalised
into something like the connect_sides system for pneumatic tubes.
