What's new

v0.5

New job: Miner

  • Give a pickaxe to an allay that's following you (hold Allay Interact and right-click it) and it becomes your cave buddy. Unlike other jobs it needs no chest: it works around you while you explore.
  • It looks around your cave for ore it can actually see, picks the best one (diamond before gold, iron, copper, coal...), mines the whole vein, then flies back and puts the ore and the XP straight into your inventory.
  • If stone or dirt is in the way to a vein, it digs straight through it (natural cave blocks only, never builds). Stone it digs gives nothing.
  • Your pickaxe's enchantments count (Efficiency, Fortune, Silk Touch), it uses durability, and it hands the pickaxe back before it would break. It mines slower than a player.
  • Ores from other mods work too, ranked by the pickaxe tier they need.
  • Outfit: a miner's cap with a candle on the brim that lights up the cave around it, a grey shirt and blue denim overalls. It holds its pickaxe the whole time, swings it with its own mining animation, and holds the ore it's carrying in its other hand.
  • Vein marker: only you see where your miner is working, through walls: an outline round the vein in the ore's colour (coal grey, iron tan, gold yellow, diamond cyan...), and/or a small ping icon over it. Choose Outline, Ping, Both or Off in the mod's config screen (Allay Folks Display).
  • It can be up to 64 blocks from you while mining (minerRange in the config) and flies back rather than teleporting, unless it gets stuck or you go further.
  • The Undead Allay pauses mining while it fights, then goes back to its vein.

Biome mod compatibility

  • Allay homes now also spawn in biomes from Terralith, Biomes O' Plenty and Oh The Biomes We've Gone, and in any mod's biomes that use the shared NeoForge biome tags. All optional: nothing changes without those mods.

Changes

  • The config screen has proper names and descriptions for every setting.

Fixes

  • Allays whose door is set back in a hole or under an overhang had trouble getting home. They now fly to the open spot in front of the door, and hop in if they're stuck nearby.
  • Allays bobbed at the edge when flying down into pits and holes. They now go down smoothly.
