Vtweaks Extra — 1.1.0

Addon for Compound V Tweaks (itself an addon for Compound V).
This update adds a permanent power-stage adjustment system, new Specimen Jar / Chemical Tank recipes, and several balance and presentation tweaks.

Additions

Specimen Jar

• V Rubish (red texture)
  Intermediate item used to craft the Power Decreaser.
  Tooltip (purple, same style as V Residue): Mix with Protein Slurry in Chemical Tank
• V Amplifier Essence (purple texture)
  Intermediate item used to craft the Power Amplifier.
  Tooltip (purple, same style as V Residue): Mix with Stabilized Slurry in Chemical tank

Chemical Tank / consumables

• Power Amplifier (drinkable, enchanted glint)
  Tooltip (dark purple): Permanently Upgrade your Compound V Power by 1 stage
• Power Decreaser (drinkable)
  Tooltip (dark red): Permanently Decrease your Compound V power by 1 stage

The Chemical Tank now accepts Protein Slurry as a primary input, in addition to Stabilized Slurry.

New recipes

Specimen Jar

• V Rubish = 2 Redstone + 1 Fermented Spider Eye + 2 Rotten Flesh + 1 Apple
• V Amplifier Essence = 1 Golden Apple + 2 Chorus Fruit + 1 Diamond + 1 Ender Pearl

Chemical Tank

• Protein Slurry + V Rubish → Power Decreaser
• Stabilized Slurry + V Amplifier Essence → Power Amplifier

All four recipes show up in JEI, in the same Specimen Jar and Chemical Tank categories as Compound V Tweaks.

How the serums work

Power Amplifier and Power Decreaser affect all staged powers from:

• Compound V
• Compound V Tweaks
• V1 Overcharge

(V1 Overcharge is supported so these items also work on that addon’s powers.)

Each use moves those powers by one stage, up to the max cap set by the mod the power comes from.

Works on mobs

Both items also work on mobs that have a compatible power.
Right-click the mob — same idea as giving Compound V or Anti-V to a creature.

Consumption

If the action would change nothing (no power, already at max for the Amplifier, already at min for the Decreaser), the item is not consumed and drinking is blocked. Same rule on mobs.

Going 1 stage above cap

This comes from base Compound V
Drinking V1 while a power is already at max can push it one stage above the official cap.
The Power Amplifier will not have effect on that extra stage, if the power is already at or above max, the Amplifier is refused and is not consumed.
The Power Decreaser can lower that extra stage (e.g. stage 6 → 5).
