PolyFactory

Full Changelog: https://github.com/Patbox/PolyFactory/compare/0.10.4+1.21.11...0.11.0+26.1

• Wind Charges now affect Windmills by giving them temporary speed boost.
• Moved the guidebook implementation into separate library/mod: https://github.com/Patbox/booklet
• Fixed Pipe and Cable in walls breaking in case of Polymer-based custom wall blocks.

• Added the guidebook "Factories and you!":
  • Crafted with a Book and Iron Nugget.
  • It's a guidebook to the mod, with main goal of making it easier to pick up for new players.
  • You use it to open new ui.
  • It's still a bit early on and doesn't describe everything, but most important basics are already there.
• Added Gearshift:
  • Crafted with 4 Planks, 2 Copper Plates, 1 Steel Gear and 2 Axles.
  • Similar to Clutch, but instead of disconnecting two sides of a mechanical network, it flips it's direction.
  • Powering it with Redstone will prevent it from slipping, keeping the rotation direction as is.
  • This behaviour can be inverted with a Wrench.
• Added Deep Storage Container:
  • Crafted with 8 Steel Plates and 1 Steel Block.
  • It's a 2x2x2 multiblock (like Steam Engine) that can store items.
  • It stores 338 stacks of items (split into 8 pages of 42 stacks).
  • Pages can be changed by left-clicking the button.
  • Button's looks can be changed by having an item in cursor and then right-clicking it on the button.
  • Hoppers / Funnels / etc. do not care about pages, seeing this block as one big inventory.
• Added Item Output Buffer:
  • Crafted with 4 Steel Plates and 4 Wooden Plates.
  • It's directional storage block that acts as an extension of machine block output containers.
  • It can hold 18 stacks of items.
  • To connect it to an output of machine block, you sneak and then place it against output point of the machine (for most it's the opposite side of the input/back).
  • If you use Funnels or Hoppers on it, the output slots of connected block will also be available for them.
  • However, UI of the block will only show its own slots.
  • When opened from the front, it will allow you take items, but not place them in. When opened from the back it allows both placing and taking items.
• Tweaked Fluid Pipe logic to push fluids more evenly in pipes that have more than two neighbors.
• After locking Copper Pipes with a wrench you can now change which faces they point at.
• Slot-Aware Funnel will no longer be limited by blocks directionality when inserting items.
• Pipe with Redstone Valve will no longer place itself as inverted by default.
• Fluids are now visible in Polydex.
• Steam Engine can now be set to require redstone signal to work.
• Squeezing a Wet Sponge in Mechanical Press can now generate 1 bucket worth of water.
• Updated texture (and internally model) of Clutch to match style of Gearshift.
• Updated texture of Artificial Dye to match modern vanilla dye textures.
• Removed some invisible quads from the Conveyor models.
• Mechanical Placer should now act closer to regular player placing behaviour.
• Improved Mechanical Presses fluid output handling. Fluids can now be set as required (unused by PolyFactory).
• Fixed spelling of Faucet (from Fauced).
• Fixed Mechanical Mixer not allowing to craft recipes with fluid output even if there is enough space with input fluids taken.
• Fixed Ice and Snow not changing block-based temperature.
• Fixed Faucet block not giving you output item correctly when using last item of a stack.
• Fixed Pipes pulling fluid from waterlogged Mechanical Pumps and Copper Pipes with Redstone Valve.
• Fixed Filtered Copper Pipe rendering as a solid block rather than transparently.
• Fixed advancements not working when other mod updated the Factory Tools library.
• Fixed missing strings for list and game event in Data Extractor.

• Added Moldmaking Table:
  • Alternative way to create Unfired Clay Molds without having a base/shaping item (like ingot).
  • Uses 4 Clay Balls, 1 Clay Block or 1 other Unfired Clay Molds as an input.
  • Provides Stonecutter-like ui.
  • Crafted either with 1 Copper Ingot, 1 Plank and 2 Wooden Plates in Crafting Table or by casting 1 Ingot worth of Molten Copper on a Crafting Table.
• Added Digital Clock:
  • It sends Game Time data every tick.
  • It also displays current time.
  • Crafted with 4 Steel Plates, 1 Redstone Chip, 3 Copper Ingots and a Clock.
• Tweaked how Data Receivers handle incoming data.
  • Receiver can now specify if it can receive data instantly, allowing it to handle data from multiple sources.
  • Previously (and by default) all data was first stored and only handled by provider at the end of the world tick, allowing them to handle only single message per tick.
  • For example, Speaker can now play multiple sounds at the same time, rather than semi-arbitrarily selecting only one sound to play.
• Improved Funnel Blocks:
  • You can set max size of item stack put to/extracted from container Funnel is attached to.
    • Worth noting it won't bypass specific limit of conveyor / inventories. Conveyor still can only transport 16 items at the time.
  • You can configure it using a Wrench. You can also use the F special action to open an UI to input the value directly.
  • Changed the collision shape to be the same as Trapdoor, matching other similar blocks from the mod.
  • Model was made slightly slimmer, to match the hitbox better.
  • The block support collision shape was unchanged (aka kept as full cube), to prevent blocks in existing worlds from popping when updated.
• Tweaked Mechanical Ejector, Mechanical Fan and Conveyor code to move players more accurately and handle player's riding mobs (horses/etc).
• Changed Cable sound to Wool (most noticeable with Polymer Sound Patcher enabled).
• Placing Cabled Data Blocks without cable will now flip their facing direction when pressing shift.
• Fixed Orientable Cabled Blocks being replaced with Cable when placing cable in them.
• Fixed Item Reader not being rotated correctly visually.
• Fixed textures being added to "blocks" atlas, when they should be in "items".
• Fixed block outline allowing to see through a block for most PolyFactory blocks:
  • This was not fixed for blocks that have texture with partial alpha, such as colored lamps, Item Reader, Hologram Projector and Nixie Tubes.
  • Additionally it might improve the block rendering performance slightly.
• Fixed last slot of Mechanical Crafter not storing it's disabled property.

  • By default, when player rides it, the direction it goes depends on player's facing direction.
  • When they are powered by Redstone (with block nearby), they will drop currently riding it entity.
  • Can be configured with Wrench, allowing to disable entity catching and player control.
  • Crafted with 3 Steel Places, 4 Iron Chains and 1 Steel Ingot.

  • New data output block, used to show progress.
  • While it uses cable system, it can also extract data from other blocks (like Storage Counter).
  • For progress information, it will start at zero and end at max value / capacity.
  • For Redstone signal it will show value between 0 and 15 (max redstone signal).
  • For other signals it will display between 0 and 100, based on double value.
  • Can be placed on walls and floor, with floor allowing to rotate it.
  • You can change its style between Default (white background), red-green and green-red.
