0.7.2

BetaMoon 0.7.2 expands the Lua engine with reusable fuel rules, persistent capabilities, connected and wireless logical networks, interactive container controls, configurable explosions, manifest-based multi-file mods, and broader debug exports.

Gameplay systems

• Add custom fuel rules with item and metadata matching, configurable burn times, priorities, predicates, and machine scopes. Vanilla furnaces and custom machines can share rules or accept different fuel sets.
• Add typed, persistent capabilities for blocks, items, tile entities, entities, players, worlds, and scripts. Capability values support validation, lifecycle callbacks, and controlled mutation through Lua handles.
• Add persistent world services and logical networks for connected or wireless systems. Scripts can model producers, consumers, storage, relays, channels, remote triggers, and other shared systems.
• Add seven Minecraft-style container GUI controls: buttons, icon buttons, checkboxes, toggle buttons, sliders, text boxes, and choice selectors. The built-in sprites cover interaction, selection, disabled, and invalid states and can be replaced by texture packs under bm_assets/betamoon/textures/gui/controls/.
• Keep container behavior separate from GUI presentation, with keyboard focus, text editing, drag input, script-defined controls, per-state asset overrides, and reusable nine-slice frames.
• Add configurable world explosions with source attribution, fire and terrain policies, affected-block inspection, and before/after callbacks.

Mod packaging, tools, and fixes

• Add manifest-based directory and ZIP mods with arbitrary entrypoints, shared manifest metadata, isolated private require modules, complete-package preflight, and reload tracking. Existing single-file mods remain supported.
• Give each manifested mod an isolated assets/ root for textures, sounds, models, and animations. Directory and ZIP layouts resolve identically, while texture-pack overrides retain their logical paths beneath bm_assets/.
• Expand debug exports with script ownership, expected asset paths, fuels, capabilities, systems, logical networks, container controls, and explosion-related information.
• Package the multi-script Advanced 03 and 08-11 examples as manifested mods that use private require modules. The Beginner 19 export/import lesson remains two separate mods to demonstrate deliberate cross-mod sharing.
• Fix hot reload so changing a registered block, tool, or armor displayName immediately replaces its localization while preserving the native object and existing world state.
• Fix enriched ctx.world:getInfo() snapshots so world-service and item callbacks can read day, time, light-cycle, difficulty, and height data without disabling themselves.
