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.
Make the injector's mode button lag-resistant. Display the mode on
the button, as is done with other machines' toggle buttons. Describe
the modes using the same words that are now used to distinguish the
corresponding pipeworks objects. Expand name to "self-contained
injector", now that the pipeworks objects are also called "injector".
Show injector item image along with the item name at the head of the form.
Replacing the extractor-based system, uranium to be used as reactor fuel
must now be enriched in stages using the centrifuge. Uranium metal can
exist at 36 levels of fissile content, from 0.0% to 3.5% in steps of 0.1%.
One round of centrifuging splits two dust of a particular grade in to one
dust each of the two neighbouring grades. Uranium of each grade can exist
as dust, ingot, and block, with all the regular metal processes to convert
between them. Uranium from ore exists in lump form, and is 0.7% fissle.
The blocks are radioactive to a degree dependent on fissile content.
Thus the chemical refinement and processing of uranium now follows the
standard pattern for metals, and is orthogonal to isotopic enrichment.
Each form of uranium (dust, ingot, block) intentionally looks identical
regardless of fissile grade.
If technic_worldgen is used alone, it defines only one grade of uranium
(as before), but defines it in the regular metal pattern, with lump, ingot
produced by cooking lump, and block crafted from ingots. It identifies
the metal only as "uranium". The multiple grades of uranium are defined
by the technic mod, which identifies each grade as "N.N%-fissile
uranium". The single grade that was registered by technic_worldgen
is redefined to be described specifically as "0.7%-fissile uranium".
For the redefinition to work, technic_worldgen must load before technic,
so technic now declares a dependency on technic_worldgen.
Each fuel rod is made from five 3.5%-fissile ingots, each of which in
turn requires one to start with five 0.7%-fissile dust, so each fuel rod
is now derived from 12.5 uranium lumps (or 25 if the lumps were first
cooked rather than being ground). This replaces the 20 lumps required
by the former recipes. After setting up and priming the centrifuge
cascade, enriching a full set of fuel for the reactor (six fuel rods)
takes 14700 centrifuge operations. It's intended to be a practical
necessity to automate the centrifuge. In the absence of EU upgrades
for the centrifuges, these operations consume 5.88e8 EU, about 0.97%
of the 6.048e10 EU that the fuel set will produce in the reactor.
The intent is that, in this respect as in others, operating a reactor
should carry a very high up-front cost, but ultimately be very profitable.
The centrifuge, currently only existing in an MV variety, is a machine
that separates a mixed substance into its constituents. Currently the
main use is to reverse alloying of metals. The alloy separation recipes
intentionally only operate on the dust form of metals, making this less
convenient than the original alloying. It also only recovers metal
constituents, not the carbon that went into cast iron or carbon steel.
This change incidentally generalises the technic recipe and
machine infrastructure to handle recipes with multiple outputs.
As unified_inventory's craft guide can't yet handle that, these recipes
are not registered there.
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.
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
<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.
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.
The message to "hold shift" makes an unwarranted assumption about the
user's keybindings. Messages from the server should refer to a key's
game function, rather than its extragame identity.
