1.1.16

Changes

• Trimmed Neo Vitae's block textures, cutting its share of the texture atlas by about a third. No visual change.
• The Vas Maleficum is now the Spiritus Crucible, and the Spira Infernalis is now the Spiritus Conduit. The old Latin names were confusing people. Existing blocks and recipes are unaffected.
• JEI now has a Spiritus Crystal Growth page, one per aspect, showing how a Crystallarium seeds a cluster, what it costs to grow one out, and how to harvest it.
• Jade now reads out a Crystallarium: the chunk's aspect and Spiritus, formation progress, and whether it is blocked or short on Spiritus.
• Spiritus crystals no longer appear in Mines chest loot. Grow them instead.
• The Ritual of the Full Spring fills tanks faster the more Raw Spiritus the chunk holds, 1,000 mB per refresh plus 100 mB for every point of Raw. The aura is not consumed, so saturating a chunk is pure upside.
• The Torment Nexus now reaps as the ritual owner for Apotheosis, so gear and gems drop at the owner's world tier instead of always the lowest one.
• The owner's world tier is saved to the ritual stone, so a Nexus left running keeps dropping at their tier across logouts and server restarts.
• The Dungeon Keys chapter of the Scriptura Vitae now points out that the realm's trial spawners drop keys, not just the chests.
• The Sigil of Necromancy now caps how many servants one player can have alive at once, ten by default and configurable. It used to summon without limit.
• Necromancy servants no longer produce EV when killed on spikes or by a Well of Suffering, so summoning cannot pay for itself.

Fixes

• Spiritus dropped by mobs no longer clutters your inventory. It is absorbed into your gems on pickup, and any excess is voided while you carry a gem. It also used to end up in your inventory even when a gem had already absorbed it.
• The Tabula Vitae is now solid across its full width. Clicks used to fall through the middle onto the block behind, and breaking one could break the wall instead.
• Items with no durability no longer get pushed straight out of the Athanor tool slot into the output.
• A worn out Athanor tool is now handed back in the output instead of being destroyed, so it can be repaired.
• The Athanor says why it is sitting idle. Hover the progress arrow and it tells you whether the output is full, the tool is worn out, or the chunk is short on Spiritus.
• The Ritual of Speed shared its rune pattern with the Ritual of the Phantom Bridge, so building one could give you the other. Speed now takes two Tenebrae runes beside the master stone, and a Tenebrae Ritual Diviner to build.
• The Ritual of Speed now fires in the direction you build it. It always fired north before, whichever way you laid the circle out.
• Existing Speed circles will not run until the two new runes are added.
• The Array of Loyal Friends no longer brings a pet back still holding items it dropped when it died, which allowed those items to be duplicated. Pets from other mods that carry an inventory, such as Occultism's spirits, are the ones affected.
• The Scriptura Vitae fixes for the Deep Shaped Charge page
• The blast sizes listed for the three shaped charges are now specified in the book.
• The book and wiki said a pickaxe shatters a crystal cluster into shards but that behavior was changed. Mining returns the cluster block. Harvesting by hand also takes one spire per click, not the whole cluster.
• Weak and Strong Tau crops now show their growth stages.
• Breaking an inscribed ritual stone now returns a blank one, so dismantling a circle gives you stones you can build the next one with. The Diviner re-inscribes on placement, and the Inscription Tools still make decorative variants by hand.

Pack Devs

• Athanor recipes can now leave out the tool entirely. A recipe with no tool only runs when the tool slot is empty, so it will not clash with tool recipes that share the same inputs.
• Custom Athanor tools still need adding to the neovitae:athanor_tool tag before they can be put in the tool slot.
