Industrial Craft 2: Nostalgia

Industrial Craft 2: Nostalgia — 21.1.0-local.18

This is a cumulative changelog relative to legacy IC2 Experimental, including changes inherited from the community port.

Platform and identity

• Available for Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge through the IndustrialCraft 2: Refactored community codebase.
• Renamed the displayed mod, creative tab and related English text to Industrial Craft 2: Nostalgia.
• Retained the internal ic2 mod ID and existing registry names for compatibility with this port's saves and recipes.

Nostalgia additions and improvements

• Added Efficiency, Fortune and Silk Touch support to the Mining Drill, Diamond Drill and Iridium Drill.
• Updated the Miner to apply its installed drill's loot enchantments during automated mining.
• Preserved unrelated enchantments when switching the Iridium Drill's Fortune/Silk Touch mode.
• Added automatic missing macerator recipes for recognized ores, raw metals and ingots based on loaded smelting/blasting recipes.
• Added fallback dust variants for metals without an existing dust, with smelting/blasting back into the corresponding ingot.
• Added recipe-reload handling and JEI support for generated dust recipes and variants. Explicit processing recipes retain priority.
• Added shared ordinary and dense plate tags, and updated IC2 plate ingredients to accept matching tagged materials.
• Added optional tagged-plate recipe alternatives for Create Propulsion: Simulated.
• Added sticky resin to current and legacy shared slimeball tags, plus tagged alternatives for vanilla sticky piston, lead, magma cream and slime block crafting.
• Allowed dried kelp as an alternative to rubber in recipes using IC2's shared rubber-material ingredient.
• Added an optional Create belt recipe using rubber.
• Added Create Mechanical Press processing of tagged tin ingots into IC2 tin plates at a 1:1 ratio.
• Added Create bulk-washing recipes for crushed copper, gold, iron, lead, silver, tin and uranium, preserving IC2 washing outputs and guaranteed byproducts.
• Adjusted the rubber-sheet crafting layout when Create is installed to avoid conflicting with belt recipes.
• Added a persistent, synchronized machine mute button to IC2 block interfaces.
• Moved the mute button to the top left below the information icon's position and reduced its size to 10 by 10 pixels.
• Fixed drills replacing nearby machine or other-player block-break sounds while merely held. Tool break sounds now require the local player's matching block-destruction action.
• Added optional Create wrench support for IC2 machine rotation, Alt rotation, dismantling with machine drops, and sneak-right-click pickup. Safe ownership/content restrictions and build permissions remain enforced.
• Added optional Create mechanical harvester support that harvests mature IC2 crops in place, preserves crop sticks and breeding/care data, and routes produce into mounted storage or safely drops it when storage is full or absent. Empty, crossing and immature beds remain untouched.
• Fixed crop serialization requesting its own unloading chunk, which could stall world saving or server shutdown.
• Updated machine loops to use Minecraft's tickable sound interface for live volume adjustments and sound-muffler interaction.
• Added optional Curios back/body-slot support for all four battery packs, including tool charging and charge-pad recharging.
• Fixed electric charging to use the donor item's correct voltage tier.
• Fixed empty-item-stack validation that could disconnect players when opening machine interfaces such as the macerator.
• Verified machine and component crafting through Create's native mechanical crafter support, including preservation of charge in electric crafting outputs. No duplicate mechanical crafting recipes are required.

Changes inherited from IndustrialCraft 2: Refactored

• Removed legacy item-form UU-Matter and its associated obsolete replication content; modern fluid-based UU processing is separate.
• Removed Refined Iron Ingots, with steel filling their material role.
• Removed IC2 scaffolds in favor of modern Minecraft scaffolding.
• Changed Reinforced Stone acquisition to a recipe using eight stone and one advanced alloy.
• Adjusted tin, lead and uranium ore generation.
• Allowed charge pads to charge items of any voltage tier while retaining charging speeds limited by the pad's tier.
• Added the Mining Filter Card for configuring the Advanced Miner's mining targets.
