Magic Gray Box Project

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
