Arsenal of Vehicles is updated to **0.1.2**.

- Updated the Tiamat aircraft carrier with its boat dock inside the stern, including two slips, a central pier, and stairs into the hangar.
- Restored solid ship decks, hulls, walls, and stair surfaces when using Lithium.
- Fixed movement up and down the carrier's dock, hangar, and island stairs.
- Reduced the carrier model's triangle count by approximately **66%**, reducing rendering work with shaders.
- Included vehicle tie-downs, hull flags, JEI workbench recipes, updated submarine sonar, and optional Xaero radar integration.

Controls now prioritize Arsenal of Vehicles and reduce conflicts with other mods.

- **Left Ctrl:** vehicle descent. **Shift:** exit vehicles.
- **V:** vehicle mode or submarine view. **G:** seat or fitting interaction. **H:** lift controls or battleship weapon selection. **Left Alt:** vehicle free look.
- **L:** quest book. **B:** backpack. **M:** world map. **J:** waypoints. **N:** new waypoint.
- **R / U:** JEI recipes and uses.
- **[ / ]:** AE2 and Refined Storage wireless access. **Ctrl + ]:** Refined Storage wireless crafting.
- **F8:** shader selection. **F10:** toggle shaders.

Survival balance and map settings have been configured for the pack.

- Reduced fire, ice, and lightning dragon cave and roost generation chances from **50% to 35%**. This affects newly generated terrain.
- Set Ore Excavation to a **64-block limit** and **16 blocks per tick**, with empty-hand excavation disabled.

- Positioned the minimap in the upper-right corner.
- Restricted map and waypoint teleportation and map-policy editing to Creative mode through the pack's server policy.
- Limited entity radar to supported ship and submarine control stations. Ship radar hides submerged submarines and their occupants; submarine sonar filters out passive wildlife.
