Tinkers Construct

Note: this alpha will break all addons, but hopefully the changes made here should prevent the need to break addons in later builds.

Modifiers

• Added: padded - reduces knockback of a tool
• Added: dual wielding - allows using a small tool in the offhand
• Added: textures for many modifiers on tools (thanks RCXcrafter)
• Added: dragon scales - dropped when the dragon is damaged by end crystals or TNT, used as an alternative to dragon heads
• Changed: diamond, emerald, netherite, and shiny now change the text rarity of tools
• Changed: reach now requires queens slime instead of manyullyn

Tools

• The scythe and cleaver now shear in AOE when given silky. Kamas, daggers and swords can use expanders (and silky) to get AOE shearing
• Kamas now attack somewhat slower

Materials

• Doubled the effect of cultivated/wood, now granting +50% repair per part
• Greenheart, skyroot, and bloodshroom now can be used to make and repair slimewood in the part builder

Tables

• Lower cost patterns are now sorted first in the part builder, effectively groups small and large parts
• Added back config options to hide most table or anvil variants
• Fix wrong tag for crafting station variants in JEI

Smeltery

• Incomplete smelteries now display a message on right click explaining the problem
• Incomplete smelteries now highlight the problematic block in red
• When holding a book, the block preventing the smeltery from expanding is highlighted in yellow
• Fix melter UI not opening due to empty stacks of fluid tank items

Gadgets and world

• Reduced mining level of cobalt ore to just iron
• Added signs for the three woods added by Tinkers

Advancements

• Added advancement to get the anvil
• Split tool crafting advancement into small and broad
• Move ability advancement to the smeltery tree, as most abilities require the anvil
• Add new advancement for getting 6 extra upgrade slots
• Disable glass cannon advancement, as its not currently possible (but will be once the soul forge is added)

Book additions

• Updated materials and you
• Added puny smelting content
• Added mighty smelting content

• New recipe for the encyclopedia

Data

• Adjusted sort keys of tinker station tools, to add more room for addons to sort new tools
• Moved material melting fluid into a recipe
• Split material casting fluid into a separate recipe, supports tagged fluids and allows a material to be only castable or only meltable
• Most casting recipes now use tagged inputs instead of hardcoded fluids
• Rework composite recipes a bit, instead of composite basins and table, there is composite part recipes and composite materials
• Added the option to hide a material from JEI and creative
• Added interfaces to aid in recipe generation for materials, metals, parts, and tools
• Added repairable tag, so its possible to make a modifiable item with no durability

API

• Harvest and attack related hooks now use context objects to reduce the number of parameters
• Should also mean those hooks remain stable up into the beta release
• Block harvest related hooks now have context related to the originally targeted block
• Attack related hooks now have a flag marking if an entity is the targeted entity and hand used for attacking
• Attack related hooks now are called for all entities instead of just living, a couple are renamed as a result
• Validate hook is now called when the last level of a modifier is removed, to allow preventing removal
• Added tool shear event to allow shearing non-IForgeShearable entities
• Material registry now has hooks on both sides to run events once the registry is fully loaded, and uses a forge event
• Added new tool definition builder, will make it easier to add new tool definition parameters if needed
• Begin changes needed to allow non-part tools to support modifiers

Cleanup

• Removed slimedrops, replaced with slime cake (see gadgets)

• Library cleanup: many classes were moved to new packages and some deleted or moved out of library
• Notable change: MaterialValues is now FluidValues

Misc

• Improve debug display of modifiers and materials
• Fix log spam when tools with old NBT are stored in containers that don't call proper vanilla itemstack hooks
