What's new

Features

  • A chiseled bookshelf for every Nether wood
  • Add JEI support (Cincinnasite Forge smelting catalyst)
  • Add proper spawn egg art for naga, jungle skeleton, flying pig, hydrogen jellyfish, and skull
  • Giant willow and anchor tree grow from a 2x2 of saplings
  • Add a gamerule to disable blue obsidian in generated ruined portals

Changes

  • Use FuelBlockTrait and fuel default from WoVer
  • Emit the vanilla loot additions as data
  • Fireruby retaliates on half of all hits instead of a quarter

Fixes

  • CityPiece/DestructionPiece shared a MutableBlockPos cursor across chunks under parallel worldgen (BetterNether#309)
  • Custom reagents were accepted by a vanilla brewing stand but never brewed
  • Hook mushroom turned any potion into healing, not just awkward
  • compat-test's third-party jars bypassed Loom's mod-remap pipeline
  • Medicine-to-bowl conversion read the item count after it had already been shrunk to 0
  • BetterNether saplings and their ground blocks could not be potted in a flower pot
