Better Than Wolves

April 30, 2012

• Added Redneck Fishing. Yeehaaaaa!
• Added the ability to throw unlit Dynamite if you don't have flint & steel in your inventory.
• Added the ability for dispensers (both vanilla and the Block Dispenser) to shoot dynamite.
• Changed the way stoked fire updates so that it more consistently stays stoked for a longer period.
• Changed the way the Cauldron and Crucible react to inventory state changes which should both improve the rate at which the Cauldron changes its visual inventory height, and resolves a problem in BTB where items wouldn't start cooking immediately upon being deposited in these blocks with a pipe.
• Changed the way Bloodwood Saplings self-plant so that only those dropped from leaves will do so. This avoids a base-class modification, prevents a work-around where the player would drop Bloodwood saplings instead of planting them to avoid angering Pig men, and allows Planters containing soul sand to have a regular collision volume to fix problems with water flowing over them.
• Fixed problem with the bottom rows of the Crucible and Stewing Pot not being ejected when they are tipped.
• Fixed problem with not being able to cook anything in a Stewing Pot if it contained Foul Food and Dung.
• Fixed problem with Ropes and Anchors sometimes being destroyed on chunk-load if the associated Platforms were already in motion when the chunk was saved. This may still happen one last time if your setups were saved with older versions of the mod, but should no longer happen with freshly saved chunks. This involved changing a lot of the code for Pulleys & Platforms in order to increase reliability on chunk/save load so it probably resolved a number of related problems as well.
• Fixed problem with still being able to tell rabid wolves to sit after feeding them wolf chops. Many wolves were harmed in the making of this feature...and how I laughed.
• Fixed problems with the Block Dispenser not being able to swallow glass panes, and not being able to place Wicker, Rollers, and Grates.
• Fixed problem with the Block Dispenser ejecting entities (arrows, eggs, etc.) in such a way that they skipped over the first block they would normally travel through.
• Removed ability to make clay blocks out of Nether Sludge. Sorry guys, but I should have thought this one through better. I have bigger plans for this in the future than fit with these conversions recipes, and I'd prefer to get rid of this now than break more people's automated systems down the road.
