Sliders technology

Update 1.0.2!

1. Complete rework of the Timer Workbench!

Timer Workbench: The timer workbench now works as a block that lets you insert upgrades directly into your timer. Instead of consuming an upgrade, you can now open your timer and implement upgrades with different values! For example: some Temporal Stabilizer Upgrades will add 3 minutes of exploration, others an hour…
A timer will now unlock two random slots by default, but slot upgrade items allow you to unlock up to 5 slots per upgrade type! The new overlay is very intuitive.

Added the “Slot Enhancer Upgrade”: this item allows you to unlock an additional random slot in your timer!

Added the “Dimensional Phasing Station” block: this block is used exclusively to apply a Phase Modulator (to remove overheat from a timer) or a Single Use Crystal Buffer (to reduce the remaining time of a damaged timer).

Added Single Use Crystal Buffers
To clearly separate the permanent Crystal Buffer upgrade (which permanently buffs damaged timers) from the one-time-use crystal items that reduce remaining time, I created two distinct items: the Single Use Crystal Buffer and the Crystal Buffer.
Single Use versions are craftable, while permanent Crystal Buffers can only be obtained through the Research Table.

Research Table adjustments:

Slide Enhancement Chip drop rate increased to 25%

Probability tweaks for several upgrades

Upgrade weighting: The number of Slide Enhancement Chips inserted into the Research Table increases the success probability of the research! Each upgrade now has a different value/power level (55% Common, 25% Uncommon, 10% Rare, 7% Epic, 3% Legendary).

Reminder: the Timer Recycler now lets you recycle upgrades/timers/components to obtain either Slide Enhancement Chips or upgrades depending on the value of the recycled item!

Added Patchouli as a dependency to allow for an in-game tutorial book!

Removed Pehkui dependency, which was previously used for just one dimension.

Added a server-side config file to adjust most mod probabilities/variables, as well as to add custom dimensions to the pool of dimensions timers can visit.
