What's new

Added

  • Mortars can now be heated from below when Create isn't loaded, unlocking heated mixing recipes.
    • Heat sources are defined by the #manual_labour:heat_sources block tag.
  • Added a config option to fill and drain the Mortar's fluid instantly, like a vanilla Cauldron.
    • Defaults to true when Create isn't installed.
  • Added a config option to disable Manual Labour Ponder scenes.
  • Mortar grinding and mixing recipes can now produce fluids through an optional fluid_results array.
    • results is now optional on both, so it's possible for a recipe to output only fluid.
  • Added the manual_labour:manual_assembly recipe type: a multistep Workstone process that needs the item hit a set number of times before it finishes. Works with or without Create.
  • Mortar mixing recipes now take an optional heat_requirement of none or heated.
  • Individual Create recipes can now be excluded from the Mortar and Workstone via a datapack file under data/<namespace>/manual_labour/recipe_exclusions/.
  • Hammers, the Pestle, and the Ladle are now enchantable.
    • Hammers can take Unbreaking, Mending, and mining enchantments (Efficiency, Fortune/Silk Touch).
    • The Pestle and Ladle can take Unbreaking and Mending.
  • Added Hammers, Pestles, and Ladles to #c:tools.
  • Added Hammers to #c:tools/hammer.

Changed

  • Rewrote Millstone code.
  • The Mortar now keeps separate input and output fluid tanks, like Create's Basin.
  • The Manual Assembly JEI category no longer requires Create, and lists both Manual Labour assemblies and Create Sequenced Assemblies that can be finished by hand.
    • Its config toggle is no longer greyed out when Create is missing.
  • Mortar Mixing in JEI now shows whether a recipe needs heat, along with the blocks that can supply it.
  • JEI arrows and badges now have textures when Create isn't installed.
  • Only pressing metal ingots into plates on the Workstone has a chance to fail (75%); every other Create Pressing recipe (e.g. dirt paths, cardboard) now always succeeds.

Fixed

  • Fluid results are no longer voided when the Mortar's tank was full or already held another fluid.
  • A Blaze Burner set to Seething now counts as a heated source.
  • Flint Hammers are now repaired with Flint instead of stone tool materials.
  • Pestles can now be repaired with #minecraft:stone_tool_materials, and Ladles with #minecraft:planks.

Removed

  • Removed the workstone_pressing_yield config option (plate pressing is now a separate Workstone recipe).
