## [0.1.36.0] - 2026-10-23

### INFO:
**Version 0.1.36.0** represents a major update focused on recipe stability, the new Pattern Port for AE2 integration, and critical bug fixes.

**Special Thanks:**
- **Knozyy** – Lead developer of recipe stability fixes, Pattern Port system, and priority system restoration.

### Added

#### #92 – Fix Running Recipes Losing Inputs or Outputs (CRITICAL)
- **Running recipes pause instead of being dropped** when structure unforms temporarily.
- Machine reforned after >10 seconds no longer ditches recipes; stall timers refresh while unformed.
- Recipes continue when structure forms again; only recipes not matching the new structure are dropped.
- **Block break detection refined**: only blocks actually part of the machine unform it; breaking nearby cables/torches no longer clears running recipes.
- **Output validation strengthened**: all outputs of a recipe must fit together before start and finish.
- New `IPortStorage.simulationCopy()` creates detached port copies for pre-flight output checks.
- Generic `OutputSimulation` validates all recipe outputs that support simulation (items, fluids, energy, Mekanism chemicals).
- Output entries report `plannedOutputs()` (post-chance-roll / weighted-pick amounts).
- **Per-tick outputs wait for room** instead of being discarded; `RecipeOutputs.canProcessTick()` checks per-tick outputs and pauses recipe if they don't fit.
- **Breaking controller still loses recipes** (unchanged); mana, kinetic, air outputs still checked one-by-one (non-copyable ports).

#### #93 – Missing Controller Definitions & Flex Input Round-Robin
- **Creative tab crash fix**: removed controller definitions no longer crash (`Registry Object not present` on FTB Quests icon lookups).
- Filter absent item entries and skip absent controller items/blocks during lookups.
- **Flex input round-robin scheduling**: flex inputs now participate in controller scheduling (previously used slot order only).
- Reusable inputs (`chance: 0`) with `max_types` now rotate through kinds instead of selecting the first indefinitely.
- Controller usage order passed into flex probes; picked kinds recorded only for successful recipe runs.
- Default mode retains slot-order fallback; cost, matching-input, output-capacity checks unchanged.
- Example: Essence Forge with six seeds, `max_types: 3` now runs kinds 1–3, then 4–6, then 1–3 again.
- Parallel recipe limit does not multiply the flex batch.

#### #94 – Fix Output Port Priority Being Lost & Jade Display
- **Priority setter bug fixed**: `PrioritySetterItem.useOn` now calls `setChanged()` on block entity.
- Previously priority was only saved to disk on other changes; after restart/reload ports reverted to priority 0.
- Priorities now persist correctly across sessions.
- **Jade priority line restored**: registered for all block types (previously only specific port blocks; Mekanism chemical ports were missing).
- Only MM output ports send priority data; other blocks show no change.

#### #95 – Pattern Port: Run AE2 Patterns Without Input Ports
- **New block `mm:pattern_port`**: AE2 Pattern Provider interface for direct pattern execution.
- Placed like Input Gateway: built into machine or next to input port; no crafting recipe.
- Pattern Provider pushes patterns without using input ports; MM runs patterns through `ICraftingMachine` capability.
- **Pattern matching & validation**:
- Pattern cached per recipe until reload; matched on first push, reused for subsequent runs.
- Pattern's inputs must exactly match recipe's requirements (items with NBT, fluids, chemicals, amounts).
- Pattern's main output must be one of the recipe's sure (`chance: 1`) outputs.
- Flex recipes not matched; smallest recipe ID wins on multiple matches.
- **Pattern execution**:
- Started only when machine is formed, redstone/recipe conditions met, parallel limit available, and non-pattern inputs (energy, catalysts, per-tick) present.
- Pushed items/fluids/chemicals go into run's own buffer (Input Gateway stays unused).
- Outputs AE2 can hold go back to Pattern Provider; others go to machine output ports or wait in buffer (never discarded).
- **Persistence & UI**:
- Multiple patterns can run simultaneously up to parallel limit (pattern runs + normal recipes count together).
- Pattern runs pause with machine, survive chunk/world reloads, return held items on recipe removal.
- Jade shows running patterns, waiting outputs, last push refusal reason.
- Controller screen displays pattern progress.
- **Dependencies**: AE2, Applied Mekanistics, Mekanism all optional; dev builds load Applied Mekanistics for GameTests.

### Fixed
- Creative tab population and controller lookups skip registry entries removed by a world/server registry remap instead of crashing on a removed controller.
- Round Robin also rotates the kinds selected inside flex recipes, including reusable inputs and NBT variants. Only kinds in a successfully started run advance their turn; `max_types`, cost and output capacity checks still apply. The controller saves the history across reloads.
- With six reusable seeds and `max_types: 3`, the first three run together, then the other three; the controller's parallel recipe limit does not multiply that batch.
