Bdragon 1.9.0

Play from the first hours

• Dragon Altar: new recipe, the lectern recipe with the Dragon Codex in the middle of the top row (any wooden slabs + 1 bookshelf + the Codex).
• Dragon Codex: now crafted with 1 book + 1 gold nugget (shapeless).
• Quest 2, The Dragon's Hoard: now 1 gold nugget, 1 gold ingot and 1 gold block (no more diamonds, emeralds or iron).

Wild dragons and nests

• Wild dragons only live in their nests: no more rank I and II dragons wandering in the wild. A spot with no room for a nest has no dragon at all.
• Nests are placed from the world spawn (not from 0, 0), with no nest within 1,000 blocks of it. The rank still grows with the distance. New config option: nestFreeRadius.
• No more respawn: once its dragon is defeated, a nest stays empty for good and its chest is yours to loot.
• Nests are now found in the Nether and on the End islands too: a nest is built a little beside its spot when the exact place has no room (narrow cave, edge of an island).
• The Nether Dragon now nests in the Nether Wastes (the basalt deltas, all pillars and lava pools, had no room for its nest).
• Museum chests now hold exactly what each quest asks.
• Existing worlds: the nests are decided again with the new rules.

Horns

• The Challenge Horn now calls a dragon of your level (the rank of your next challenge, rank V for a legendary dragon), of a random race.
• New: 11 Elemental Horns (Challenge Horn + an essence, shapeless). They call a dragon of that race, at your level. The way to hunt the alpha scales of your race.
• Sneak + blow: the horn reveals the nearest nest of your level instead, and is kept.
• A called dragon always appears in the open (no more dragons stuck in the netherrack).
• A dragon called by a horn flies away if you leave it (more than 128 blocks, logged out or dead) for one minute.

Locate a nest

• New command /locate nest [race] [rank] (also /bdragon locate): the nearest nest that still has its dragon. The race and the rank are optional; use any as the race to give only a rank (/locate nest any 5).
• Click the green coordinates to teleport there (cheats needed).

Spawn eggs

• 66 spawn eggs in their own creative tab: ranks I to V and the alpha of each of the 11 races.
• The alpha eggs spawn the real alpha bodies when the race has one (Sylvan Tortoise, Tempest Dragon, Moon Dragon, Sun Steed, Nether Demon), with twice the health of a rank V dragon.

3D items

• The horns, dragon scales, alpha scales, essence vials and orbs of power now have 3D models in the hand, on the ground and in item frames (the inventory keeps the flat icons).

Codex and museum

• The Codex is now in English only and much shorter: the quests to do (with your progress), the essence recipes and how to become an alpha. The language switch was removed.
• The Bdragon Museum world is fully in English for every player (signs, panels, world type name).

Config

• Removed lairRespawnDays (dragons no longer respawn). Added nestFreeRadius (default 1000).
