MagiChem

Deleting and regenerating your MagiChem configs is highly recommended if you're updating from a previous version.

New Features

• All GUIs with recipe selectors now have scroll bars. The recipe panels can also be navigated with the mouse wheel.
• The Circle of Fabrication has become a Tier 1 block that always uses 10 FE/t and takes 90 seconds to craft. Its FE usage cannot be modified.
• Added the Grand Circle of Fabrication, which can be crafted as early as Tier 2. This version retains the old one's modifyable FE usage scale.
• Added the Circle of Toil, a Tier 1 Construct-powered FE generator. Activate the block with a Bell of Bidding set to Interact to bind a construct to it or to remove the construct already operating it. Added the Materia Manifest. This block lists all materia stored within 8 blocks of itself in alphabetical order (Essentia first, then Admixtures). If you select one of the listed Materia types, the Manifest will draw a beam from itself to the container that holds that Materia. You can also activate the block with a Rune of Marking Pair to define a custom area for it to track instead.
• Added the construct Harvest Crystals task. Uses a Mana Cannon to fire sound blasts at crystals that grow from budding blocks when they're fully grown. Despite using a Mana Cannon, a Mana Torso is not necessary.
• Up to six Crystal Candles can be placed in the same block.
• The Coloring Cauldron now has comparator support. [0] Empty; [1] Has dye but no item; [4] Has an item but no dye; [8] An item is currently marinating; [15] An item is ready to collect.

Tweaks & Balance Changes

• The Provide Materia task can now be instructed to always leave at least one materia in the Jars/Vessels the construct is pulling from in order to maintain your containers' typing. This option is set to true by default, but you may need to set it to true on existing programs.
• Dirt can now be made in the Conjurer using Earth Essentia.
• Crystal Candles now have both the minecraft and occultism candles tags.
• Increased the amount of Iris Argenti crafted with the Ritual of the Balanced Scales to 10, and the amount crafted on the Nexus to 12.
• Nigredo Essentia can now spawn in structure loot chests. Nigredo, Albedo, Citrinitas, and Rubedo Essentia can spawn in Manaweave Caches. Which type is available depends on the Cache's tier.
• Added recipes to upgrade basic construct heads to smart heads in the Nexus.
• Power Spikes are now craftable at Tier 1.
• The Circle of Power now generates significantly more power by default: 75/t → 750/t → 7,500/t → 75,000/t. FE usage of MagiChem devices has been modified to account for this change.
• The layout of the MagiChem advancements has been adjusted to account for this update's changes to early game.
• Botania flowers all have Admixture of Color instead of Admixture of Change.
• The amount of Academic Slurry per point of Experience has been increased from 40/point to 100/point. This is a band-aid fix until the Occult Matrix's internal slurry-generating math is rethought.
• Default experience generation of the Construct Study task has been increased by 250%.
• Removed the Iron Block recipe from the Ritual of the Balanced Scales because you can make a Circle of Fabrication at T1 now.
• Unbottled materia in input slots of devices vents out of the device and is voided when the recipe is changed (provided the new recipe has a different type of materia in that slot). Bottled materia in input slots has no change in behavior.
• When sneaking and looking at a device, only the side that can accept Elemental Actuators will display plugin compatibility.

Bug Fixes

• Vinteum Crystal Blocks now drop when broken.
• Fixed a tooltip mistake in the Deluge Purifier's GUI.
• The Cleaning Brush now disappears at 0 durability instead of going into negative durability.
• Elemental Actuators can be paused with a redstone signal again.
• The Deluge Purifier no longer consumes Water Essentia / Eldrin Power an an insane rate if its internal water tank is empty.
• The Fusery GUI now displays tooltips on its item ghosts.
• Random Admixtures generated by distilling Rarefied Waste now correctly appear as unbottled materia.
• Pausing the Grand Distillery with a redstone signal also visibly pauses all attached Elemental Actuators.
