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.
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".
The size configuration is no longer cleared when exiting the dialog with

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.
