The Twilight Forest

ADDED:

• Fully implemented the Ore Meter!
  • Right-click with the Ore Meter to detect nearby ore(s).
  • Shift right-click in the air to set the Ore Meter's chunk range (can be a 0-2 chunk radius).
  • Shift right-click a block to lock targeting to that block. The Ore Meter will only detect blocks of that type nearby. This behavior is controlled via a tag (`ore_meter_targetable`).
  • Left-click with the Ore Meter to wipe all its current data.
• Added the Rabbit's Pocket Watch:
  • Equip it on your hotbar to get Speed and Jump Boost.
  • Hold it in your hand/off-hand slot to get Haste as well.
  • Never be late again, or it'll be off with your head!
• Added Emperor's Cloth:
  • Emperor's Cloth can be applied to armor to prevent it from rendering on your player.
  • The cloth can be applied either through normal crafting or smithing. No template is required.
  • A tooltip will be applied to armors affected by the cloth so you can easily tell which ones will render invisible.
  • Equiping armor with Emperor's Cloth will render it invisible to mobs, too. This means having invisibility with said armor will make you fully invisible to all mobs.
  • NOTE: If a modded piece of armor doesn't work properly with the cloth, it's either not tagged properly or it uses a custom armor render layer which we can't support. Please let us know if any armors don't work and we can look into it.
• Implemented Rope:
  • Can be crafted by using 3 Root Strands.
  • Found naturally generating in the woods being used to suspend Firefly Jars.
  • Can be placed on the bottom of blocks or on their sides.
  • It can also intersect with itself and works similarly to vanilla's Scaffolding block when placed and broken.
• A small, red, X now shows up next to the structure icons on Magic Maps if the boss of that structure has been defeated.
  • The Quest Grove will also display as an X when its Questing Ram has gifted its rewards.
• Added a new sound for fortification shields expiring and changed some of the other sounds.
• Added an indicator for how many fortification shields are left on your player on the hotbar.
• Added new texture variants for Red Thread.
• Added particle animations to the Timewood Clock, Heart of Transformation and Minewood Core.
• Datapacks can now control stalagmite/stalactite densities in Hollow Hills, Hydra Hills, and Yeti Caves.
• Right-clicking Empty Canopy Bookshelves and Death Tome Spawner blocks with a Death Tome spawn egg item will now increase that block's amount of Death Tomes.
• Implemented frames for Magic Paintings.
• Added compat for the Tips mod. You can now see 64 unique messages related to Twilight Forest with it.
• Added compat for REI.
• Added compat for EMI.
• Added Moonworm repairing support to recipe viewers.
• Added Recipe Book support in Uncrafting Table menu.
• Added a config option to disable ingredient cycling in the Uncrafting Table.
• Added a config option to allow charms to play the Totem of Undying screen effect instead of our own.
• Added a system that allows for multiplayer inclusive boss battles:
• A new config option: multiplayerFightAdjuster. There are four values allowed here: NONE, MORE_LOOT, MORE_HEALTH, and MORE_LOOT_AND_HEALTH.
• More loot will allow bosses to drop more items based on how many players participated in the fight. Exact chances can be found here.
• Loot is also fully controllable via datapacks, done through two new loot functions and a tag. You can read more about the system here if youre interested in adding dynamic loot drops.
• More health will increase a boss' health based on how players are nearby when the boss spawns. Easy adds 10 hearts per person, normal adds 20, and hard adds 30.

CHANGED:

•  Updated the Ice Bomb:
  • Now travels 93% faster.
  • It now once again uses the correct particles.
  • The particle trail it leaves is now centered on the thrown bomb.
  • The Ice Bomb no longer stops in mid-air when colliding with an entity. It instead applies it's effect on it and keeps going.
  • It now lasts 5 seconds instead of 4.
  • Fixed the Ice Bomb not applying its effect on the first second.
  • The snow layer that the Ice Bomb makes is now slightly rounded, with a small additional second layer.
  • The Ice Bomb now remembers how much time it has left if it is unloaded.
• Block and Chain updates:
  • Block and Chain chain links now act chain-like instead of stretching forward as the block travels.
  • The chain links on the Block and Chain are now part of the renderes instead of separate entities.
• The Carminite block has been tweaked:
  • It now uses metal sounds (like a Block of Diamond).
  • It now has a hardness of 1.5 (like a Block of Amethyst).
  • It now requires a pickaxe to break.
  • It is no longer considered sticky by Pistons.
• Many internal refactors for Twilight Forest dimension generation have been made:
  • Revamped cave generation.
  • Fixed chasms generating on the surface, more dirt for tunnel generation, and occasional big rooms.
  • Fully eliminated our custom chunk generator and split its functionality off to various sub-systems. We only use Vanilla's noise-based generator now. Expect improved compatibility for addon structures in the Twilight Forest dimension.
  • Terrain generation now uses a density function in the noise-based generator.
  • Specific Twilight Forest structures (Hollow Hills, Labyrinth, Hydra Lair, Yeti Caves) now modify noise-based generation in ways similar to how vanilla's structures modify the terrain. This will help compatibility when generated in new dimensions.
  • The Giant's House have been split off from the Troll Cave structure and are now their own structures. They still show as a singular icon on the Magic Map and are still gated behind defeating three specific bosses.
  • In singleplayer, Twilight Forest's biome generator now shows specialized info on the F3 debug overlay.
  • Re-implemented ferns into TF's world generation.
• Changed how some items are held:
  • Lamp of Cinders, Ore Magnet, and Moonworm Queen no longer face the player when held in the left hand while in first-person view.
  • The way the Lamp of Cinders and Ore Magnet are held has been adjusted for third-person view to be more tool-like.
  • The Moonworm Queen third-person position has been shifted slightly.
• Rewrote the weather rendering code. Locked weather effects are now much less harsh on the eyes and look closer to how the 1.7 effects look.
• Block and Chain and Cube of Annihilation projectiles now filter blocks based on Vanilla Item Stack's `CanDestroy` nbt list if used in Adventure Mode.
• Bug blocks may now be placed on leaves.
• Marked Questing Ram banner as Not Yet Implemented.
• Changed a pixel on the Timewood Clock texture.
• Spiral Brick blocks can now be waterlogged.
• Etched Nagastone no longer switches axis direction on placement if sneaking
• Previously empty containers in Druid Huts now generate with junk items.
• Changed the chest Knight Phantoms drop their loot in.
• Minor changes to a few subtitles for scepters and Lich clones.
• The floating text in the Final Castle gazebo can now be removed.
• The Lich now teleports back to the boss room if it gets too far away.
• The Lich now teleports back to the center of the boss room during phase 3 if it gets stuck trying to go down the stairs.
• Nerfed the blizzard restriction a little bit to not start hurting you as quickly.
• All passive animal tempt/breed items are now controlled via tags.
• Updated all structure NBT files to use the proper data version. This will now be done automatically every Minecraft update.
• Pinch Beetles will now drop you immediately when they die instead of when they get removed from the world.
• The player's food bar will now render when riding a hostile "mount" like a Pinch Beetle or Yeti.
• Revamped Ruined Foundations with some stairs, slabs, and fences.
• Switched Transformation Powder and Crumble Horn interactions to use data maps instead of fake recipes. If you have a datapack that adds/changes either of these, they will no longer work. You can read about data maps here. Transformation Powder transformations are located in data/twilightforest/data_maps/entity_type/transformation_powder.json, and Crumble Horn transformations are located in data/twilightforest/data_maps/block/crumble_horn.json.
• Slightly reordered the item and equipment Creative tabs to account for new items.

• The Crumble Horn now uses the horn tooting animation.
• Made animal spawns happen a bit more often in the dimension.

• Re-added back the Hydra death animation from earlier versions.
• All of TF's damage types are now appropriately tagged with NeoForge's tags.
• Trimmed magic tree core config.
• Transferred Aurora Block model variants from its blockstate to a custom baked model. This fixes the pattern mismatching.
• Changed the Final Boss Spawner to have an (NYI) tag.
