## [2.0.0] — 2026-03-07 — Major Update

### New Features

**Wheel Size & Thickness Detection (Geometry Overhaul)**
- Wheel diameter is now measured from the actual blocks built by the player — no more fixed size table
- Any size and shape works: round, octagonal, square, etc.
- Wheel thickness (depth along bearing axis) is also detected automatically
- Multi-layer wheels (2, 3, 4+ blocks deep) are fully supported
- Goggles now show `Wheel Size: 9x9x2` (diameter x diameter x depth)

**Stress Capacity**
- Scales with wheel area (radius squared) AND thickness (depth)
- 3x3x1 = 2,048 SU — 5x5x1 = 8,192 SU — 7x7x1 = 18,432 SU — 7x7x2 = 36,864 SU
- More blocks invested = more power generated

**Water Flow Detection (Improved)**
- Full grid scan of the wheel plane — detects water flowing at any position (not just 4 cardinal points)
- Diagonal water paths and asymmetric channel setups all work correctly
- Water detection depth matches actual wheel thickness
- Lava and other flowing fluids also work

### Changes

**Optional Dependencies**
- Jade and JEI are now optional — the mod loads and runs without them
- Jade/JEI integration still available when installed

**Sound**
- Uses default Create kinetic sound (same as all kinetic blocks)

**Code Cleanup**
- Removed all debug/info logging

### Bug Fixes
- Fixed Jade goggle tooltip showing incorrect Stress Capacity (was showing base value instead of actual SU)
- Fixed water detection checking wrong world positions
