What's new
Welcome to Magic Gray Box Project 0.5.0, with one of the longest and most involved quest chapters yet!
The "Digital Applications" chapter brings a ton of new content, with a big focus mod: Oritech!
* Machine Cores are the foundation of every Oritech machine, made through a Compact Crafting chain
* Each core tier has a new set of machines it can be crafted into; this chapter has 5 of them available
* Use some of the tech to gain access to Wild Spirits, Voidshimmer Goo, and a new Hephaestus Forge
* Wrap up the chapter with access to the Ender Crafter and its alternators
With Wild Spirits now in the progression, you can craft some Cataclysm eyes!
* Craft them using materials made available in this chapter
* Netherite Monstrosity, Ignis, Maledictus, and the Harbinger can now be tracked down reliably with them
* Don't over-fight them! Their uses will be made clear in a forthcoming update...
AE2 is fully integrated as well!
* Get to Elite Machine Cores to start constructing fundamental AE2 technology
* Some of the recipes are more expensive, but a few components were made more accessible
* Auto-crafting systems are currently gated to progression that will be finalized next chapter
On top of it all, Hostile Neural Networks has arrived alongside Dyson Cube Project!
* Start simulating your mob drops instead of solely relying on farms and Drygmies
* Invest in a new source of energy that you'll be able to take advantage of later on
Buffs:
* Dielectric Rods can be converted between each other again
* Uraninite is craftable again using Raw Uranium in an Energizing Orb
* Empowered Palis uses Glowing Mushrooms instead of Stardust
Nerfs:
* Removed EMI Loot (ALI made it redundant)
* Oritech's alloys are now exclusive to its Foundry
* Amethyst Fish no longer drops Fluxite
* Silicon can only be crafted with Oritech at the earliest
* Conduit Binder requires an Alloy Smelter now
* Osmium now generates exclusively in the End
* Oritech Pipes are uncraftable in early game and need flux crafting
* Duroplast cannot be used for Oritech crafts
