Nuclear Tech 1.18.2-0.0.19.1

Nuclear Tech 1.18.2-0.0.19.0

Centrifuge, volcanoes, Polish translation and fixes.

What's Changed

Gameplay

• Add Centrifuge
  • Not the gas one
• Add volcanoes and tectonic missiles
• Fix RBMK column placement checks (#27)
• Fix RBMK column piston push reaction to be blocking
• Fix RBMK column block drops (#28)
• Fix machines not being synced properly when re-entering chunks (#30)
• Fix Piglins freezing the game when picking up non-barter items
  • This was a very peculiar one. Turns out, Piglins literally throw air when putting something into their inventory if it isn't full. That was a very special property that the client-side hazard system didn't like. TL;DR, the item tracking in the hazard system on the client has been completely redesigned to intercept network packets and watch for items instead.

Localization

• Add Polish translation by @JulekJulas in #32
• Proofread Polish Translation by @cakedon in #33
• Output completion rates for translations when generating

Customization

• Add a config option for allowing detonations of bombs outside the loaded world

Cosmetics

• Add Alcater's cape (for his 1.12.2 fork of the mod)

Code Quality

• Add abstract unit formatter, used for energy and fluid GUI hover displays
• Get rid of HazardItemEffect
• Get rid of unused launch pad network message

API

• Port ExplosionVNT, a modular extension to the vanilla explosion algorithm

Binaries

• Update Kotlin compiler to 1.8.0

Misc

• Add contributing guidelines
  • I think the project is ready to accept contributions now

Nuclear Tech 1.18.2-0.0.18.0

RBMK, fluid ducts, IO improvements and fixes.

Keep an eye out for any discrepancies between the original 1.7.10 version of the mod and this port concerning RBMK behavior.
Have fun testing! (RBMK dials are in the config folder)

---

Gameplay

• Add the RBMK
  • Albeit partially (missing irradiation channel, cooler, heater, crane, digamma meltdown and perhaps some other things)
    • Look I'm kinda busy all the time and I'll have even less time later, so let's just make a release now
      • Did I already mention it's almost 3 am right now?
  • Chunkloading is probably just as dangerous as in 1.7.10, but I might fix that soon
  • Steam cannot be processed and is basically useless right now
    • Just void it into some mod's storage or something
• Add fluid ducts and IDs
  • Compatible with other mods
• Fluid and energy IO networks now try to distribute stuff as fairly as possible
• Fix a general IO issue, machines' ports should now connect properly

UI/UX

• Fix tooltip flickering in the combustion generator GUI for the burn time

Compatibility

• Make templates listing server-safe, see #20

---

Gameplay

• Add some machine upgrades
• Update the Electric Furnace to also support machine upgrades
  • Contributed to the 1.7.10 version by Adam29Adam29
• Fix energy cable connection issue

Graphics

• Use 3D models for items of large machines (i.e. Assembler)
  • The Press is still left out on that, since it uses JSON models
• Use BlockEntity rendering for Fat Man and Little Boy
  • With that, enabling experimentalForgeLightPipelineEnabled in forge-client.toml is no longer needed for proper shading, yay

Nuclear Tech 1.18.2-0.0.15.0

Energy network, some survival crafting, code refactor and fixes.

Most work went into moving code around and changing things for better development efficiency. Also, cables are finally a thing.

Enjoy testing the energy network for all its bugs and glitches!

---

Gameplay

• Make progression up to the Chemical Plant playable in survival
• Fix Chemical Plant recipe (previously used polymer ingots instead of insulators)
• Add cables
  • Only coated cables available for now
    • They use the old texture because I have yet to figure out connected textures
  • I'm not yet happy with the energy distribution (energy is not taken from and distributed to machines evenly)
  • Should work with other tech mods such as Mekanism
• Add Hopper IO to the Combustion Generator
  • Other machines will receive it soon enough as well

UI/UX

• Any remaining visual glitches for energy gauges should now be gone

Audio

• Convert stereo audio files to mono
  Minecraft's sound engine doesn't like stereo sound files and doesn't attenuate them properly, so those were fixed
  • Chemical Plant operating
  • Missile takeoff
  • Mini nuke explosion (unused)
• Cut away silence from Anvil fall sound effect
• Remove artifacts from Shredder sound loop

Code Quality

• Rename and/or move almost every file or function somewhere else
• Extract the core functionalities of most machines into base classes
• Remove middleman for contamination capability handler
• Replace weird old bobcode oil generation with new sphere math code
• Move special localization keys into one file
• Exclude run directory from IDE via Gradle plugin
• Whatever other things that have been refactored

Compatibility

• A crash with another mod due to (my) improper implementation of energy capability functions should be fixed (refer to #15)
• A peculiar null pointer crash that appeared when updating Forge, related to the radiation capability, should be fixed

Misc

• Bug reports now use GitHub's new issue form syntax, for higher quality reports

---

Perhaps some other things were fixed as well by the code cleanup, or introduced. Who knows?
Test it, or spot it here in the thousands of lines of code that changed:

Nuclear Tech 1.18.2-0.0.14.0

Chemical Plant, new hazard system and many fixes.

The license has been changed from GPLv3 to LGPLv3 due to a legal incompatibility with Minecraft linking into the mod.

This build has rather big changes concerning items and registry names, as well as multi-block structures. Generating a new world is highly recommended!

Have fun testing!

---

Gameplay

• Add the Chemical Plant
• Add Uranium Hexafluoride
• Port the modern hazard system
  • Hazards actually work for items on the ground
    • Schrabidium and related items will apply blinding effects depending on distance also when on ground
• Port more items from the parts tab

• Animate the Press (finally)

UI/UX

• Fix the search bar in the Template Folder rendering above items' tooltips
• Fix NTM Anvil search bar not unfocusing properly when deselected
• Fix Launch Pad energy gauge using max value constant of Electric Furnace

• Max out the volume on all siren tracks
  • It should be loud enough now

Customization

• Most of the materials available in NTM are now tagged for compatibility with other mods
• Add a config option for disabling the newer phased explosion algorithm, updating blocks immediately instead and bringing the old "animation" back

Code Quality

• More material groups
• Material conversion recipes are now automatically generated via material groups
• Remove an unnecessary log error message for the template folder search tree reload failing
• Genericize multi block structure parts and ports for use with almost any machine

API

• Add a slot item handler that doesn't cause glitches with contents changing
  • I blame Forge

Binaries

Performance

• Port the generalized spiral point algorithm for calculating craters, contributed to the original by haru315
• Rubble that spawns for missile explosions is ported as a particle instead of an entity

Graphics

• Fix mushroom cloud not rendering properly with Fabulous! graphics mode
• Mushroom cloud lingers for 2.5 more seconds after the explosion is finished
• Mushroom cloud fades out when in Fabulous! mode
• Rubble from missile explosions lingers for a lot longer than in 1.7, slowly sinks into the ground, and fades out when in Fabulous! mode

Customization

• Add an experimental format for configurable fallout transformations

Code Quality

• Add some helper extension functions for easier modification of ResourceLocations

API

• Mods can register explosion algorithms and acquire already existing ones, theoretically also from other mods
• Add TargetDesignator interface

Misc
