What's new

1.0.0->1.1.0

Storm Escape and Rules

  • Added persistent Storm Escape rule presets: settings can now be saved and loaded.
  • Added an experience-output multiplier rule with 0.5x, 1x, 5x, and 10x options.
  • Added Keep Inventory support and improved revive-rule handling, including protection against item loss when the rule is enabled.
  • Added an optional tractor-beam safety rule: disabling a Wither Storm head while it is pulling you prevents one fall-damage event.
  • Added a phase and consumed-block counter while the Wither Storm is locked on.
  • The completion screen now shows the death count when Unlimited Revives is enabled.
  • Updated the default challenge conditions: Wither Storm growth rate is now 0.5, the persistent black hole begins about one minute into phase 0, and cluster-block suction is 5x faster from phases 6–7.
  • Refined looping and Rainbow-tier missile behavior, including more frequent missile launches and no launches while the storm is in fake death.

Enhanced Amulet and Equipment

  • Expanded the Enhanced Amulet with an accessory interface. Accessories can be installed through an anvil and selected with configurable keybindings.
  • Added the Withered Symbiont Detector accessory, which points toward the nearest Withered Symbiont within 150 blocks.
  • Added the Storm Phasometer accessory, providing the Storm Phasometer's use and zoom behavior through the Enhanced Amulet.
  • Added recipes for the new amulet accessories.
  • Fixed Enhanced Amulet outlines and key registration, including proper enabling and disabling of target and Symbiont highlighting.
  • Command Block-enchanted shields can no longer be disabled by axe strikes.

Recipes, Food, and Rewards

  • Added shapeless recipes for Mushroom Stew using Crimson Fungus, Warped Fungus, and a Bowl.
  • Added shapeless Suspicious Stew recipes using Crimson Fungus, Warped Fungus, a Bowl, and a flower.
  • Expanded flower effects for Suspicious Stew, including Sunflower, Lilac, Rose Bush, Peony, Pitcher Plant, and Spore Blossom.
  • Golden Apple Stew and Enchanted Golden Apple Stew now stack to 16 and consume one bowl per use when stacked.
  • Added Netherite Upgrade Smithing Templates to Wither Storm treasure, following the same appearance rules as Netherite Ingots.
  • Added individual Mending enchanted books to the corresponding treasure rules.
  • Storm Stars now retain their Command Block tier and craft into the matching Super Beacon tier.

Withered Symbionts and Command Block Effects

  • Improved Withered Symbiont spawning reliability, including ocean-surface spawning and removal of Command Block tool/book exclusions from valid player targets.
  • Removed the random spawn roll from Withered Symbiont spawning checks for more predictable encounters.
  • Marked Symbionts no longer despawn naturally.
  • Withered Symbiont drops are no longer pulled into the Wither Storm.
  • Added extra vanilla-style Symbiont drops: gunpowder, one cure-ingredient item, and tainted dust. Their quantities are affected by Looting.
  • A beacon-like beam now marks a Command Block book dropped by a Withered Symbiont.
  • Command Block particles used by Symbionts, their abilities, internal battles, and fake-death sequences now match the active Command Block tier instead of incorrectly using Impulse particles. Rainbow remains distinct.

Battle Flow and Fixes

  • Fixed the Small F-Bomb incorrectly leaving a phase-7 Wither Storm in fake death instead of opening the internal space.
  • Fixed normal internal-space battles receiving Practice Mode starter equipment or story behavior.
  • Fixed bed and amulet grants in the affected battle flows.
  • Fixed Wither Storm and player-controlled Storm Avatar Command Block tier synchronization in exposed blocks, rewards, books, and visual effects.
  • Restored missing Chinese localization keys.
