Pagophobia 0.1.2-preAlpha

Potions, progression, and polish.

The cold just got a little more manageable! This update adds new potions with two new custom effects, a new progression chain for brewing them, a handheld-warmer and some quality-of-life improvements to item displays.

As always, please report issues on the linked issue tracker!!!

Added

• Handheld Warmer - A small but helpful lantern warming you up as you hold it! But watch out, it has a very limited battery and needs frequent recharging with the charging hub.
• Warmth Potion - Brewed with Frostbitten Leather. Warms you up to counteract the freezing cold. Available as normal, splash, and lingering variants.
• Chill Potion - Brewed with Ice Shard. Cools you down for those hot situations. Available as normal, splash, and lingering variants.
• Ice Shard - Rare drop from breaking ice blocks and it's ascendants (packed ice, blue ice). Fortune enchantment increases drop rates.
• Frostbitten Leather - Crafted from leather and an Ice Shard. Used to brew Warmth potions.

Changed

• Item Names Simplified - Handheld Warmer and Tablet no longer show battery percentage in their names (still visible in tooltips and durability bars).
• Potion Balance - Effects tuned to be useful but not overpowered. Warmth I counteracts mild cold, Warmth II is needed for extreme conditions.

Fixed

• Various small bug fixes and stability improvements, including the "Open Modrinth" button in the main menu update checker screen not working (oops!)

Pagophobia 0.1.1-preAlpha

Minor update - bug fixes, config screen, and update checker.

HELLO!!! I'M BACK! I won't be able to do many updates on the mod right now due to insufficient free time available to me, but you can trust on some quality updates being in the works! Thank you for your patience.

This one is a taste of the quality I like to put into my work. Expect more soon. (-ish...)

As always, please report issues on the linked issue tracker!!!

Added

• Update Checker - Notifies you on the title screen and in chat when a new version is available, with a direct link to Modrinth (both can be disabled in config, speaking of which...)
• Cloth Config Screen! - Replaced the placeholder config screen with a proper scrollable GUI (requires Cloth Config)
• Config Tooltips - Hover over any config option for a description of what it does

Fixed

• Various small bug fixes and stability improvements
