darn

Changes

• Fixed a NullPointerException crash when a fireball with no owner detonates

ironically, i am at my most burnt out when I have the most time to work on the mod.

Changes

• Fixed a bug where the stored chestplate would be lost on death if keepInventory was enabled in the current world

• Fixed a bug where using the Consecrator on Bloody Ice would generate infection points for free

  • This is presumeably an SRP bug that wormed its way over

• Fixed a bug where the Undying enchantment would cause massive amounts of lag due to client item spawning

• Leer can no longer be used on armor stands, no fun allowed

• Remodeled/retextured the Vagrant, at the moment only Tier 0 is finished.

  • As time goes by, I will add each tier individually
  • The goal is for them to all look very different by the end
  • Ironically, this update actually reduced the tier variance, they all look the same now! Nothing I can do for now besides continue working.
    • Then again, the original model barely changed anyway, not much was lost here

• Since the remodel is a WIP, an option is provided in the client settings to use the old one.

• New Item: Ghastly Bandage

  • Intended for the early game, crafted from Rupter Viscera and a Blood Lotus
  • Heals a parasite for 5 HP on use. Also works on other vagrants!

• The /toggleparasite command now supports forcing the target into the hidden state when used via the shouldConceal optional argument.

  • This only works if you are using the command with a name provided (or %s to refer to yourself)

• Fixed the /toggleparasite command not giving back the player's stored chestplate, provided one exists

• The /dendritus command now works similarly to the /srpcbounty command, allowing removal and placement.

• Replaced /setbiomass with /biomass <set|add|subtract>, also works as /biomass <player(s)> <set|add|subtract> for bulk operations.

• Replaced /setkills with /parasitekills <set|add|subtract>, also works as /parasitekills <player(s)> <set|add|subtract> for bulk operations.

Config Changes

• Parasite Player Old Model - Whether Parasite Players use the old model as opposed to the new one introduced in 1.3.4.

Changes

• Fixed the Hijacked Enchanting Table causing the Evolution Phase to reset on the client, where it shouldn't be accessed anyway

• Fixed the Trustworthy Note setting attributes on the client side

• Fixed a conflict with SRPMixins causing beckons to not award points for infection

• Fixed setting Ante Ticks to 0 failing catastrophically, should also fix a similar bug for Wells

• Chestplates are now placed in a hidden slot instead of directly given to the player when you unhide.

  • The slot is accessible in the Malleability Menu, if you wish to remove the chestplate by hand after the fact.
  • The chestplate is automatically reequipped whenever you hide again.

• Niduses are now only turned into Evolution Points if the player is sneaking

  • Also added all of the messaging for the Beckon Harbringer to the Dispatcher Nidus, given the similar functionality.

• The Beckon Harbringer now does a chunk count check like the Dispatcher Nidus, rather than simply checking in a 100 block radius.

• Refactored this mod's interfacing with SRP data (adding evolution points, querying the phase, etc) to include context.

• Added (sort of) support for SRPMixins' Player/Chunk Phases

  • This is why I made the preceding change
  • There will probably be a few more strange bugs with this mod, but for now it should be "compatible"
  • For instance, Wells and the like are a wildcard in that department.

• Also changed like 2 mixins to not be redirects anymore, good riddance

• SRPMixins's dimensional parasite scaling now applies to Parasite Players

• SRP's knockback resistance scaling now applies to Parasite Players

• Fixed a few duplicate UUIDs for the attributes

• Stat scaling configuration can now be modified in game

• The Leer ability now registers near misses as hits, you get 1.5 blocks of leeway

• Changed the internal logic of the Leer ability to hopefully reduce the no willing parasites misfires

• The Masticator and Consecrator no longer spend Fetid Canisters when the player is in creative mode

• Added a config entry to modify the range which Factories can spawn parasites on their targets.

  • Defaults to 6.
  • Setting it to 0 disables the feature.

Config Changes

• Logging Settings - Log Client Data Access - Whether to log whenever this mod gets srp data on the client when it shouldn't Should be good for checking for phase reset bugs

• Stat Scaling - Knockback Resistance Scale - The amount to scale the player's knockback resistance by.

• Mod Compatibility - SRPMixins Scaling - Applies SRPMixins's dimension-based stat scaling to Parasite Players.

• Factory Behavior - Target Teleport Range - The range, in blocks, in which a factory can spawn its bound parasite right on top of its target.

• Bloom Settings - Leer Raycast Width - The amount of blocks of leeway you get with the ray trace

small

Changes

• Fixed Saltines not doing the check to make sure salt blocks are nearby before graduating

  • This is just embarassing

• Fixed the Hijacked Enchanting Table causing a rendering crash in some cases

• The "Enchantment Tailoring" setting should no longer cause all chunks to reroll when enabled vs disabled.

  • Enchantments are now only rerolled if the target item cannot receive them.
  • The setting is still disabled by default, though.

• Added an option for all Hijacked parasites to no longer have biomass interactions.

  • This removes the need to explicitly add them to the related blacklists.
  • Should support other addon parasites out of the box, provided they extend EntityPHijacked.

• As a result of the above change, SRP's existing Hijackeds have been removed from said blacklists.

  • There shouldn't be any gameplay change as a result of this.

• Vanilla SRP's Hijackeds have had their biomass costs increased slightly.

  • They do actually have some meat on their bones.

• Saltines can now only be placed on saltable blocks.

  • They need proper motivation

• Holding SHIFT will display the descriptions of enchantments in the Hijacked Enchanting Table.

• New Enchantment: Bulwark

  • causes Factories to produce parasites with +6 armor and +3 armor toughness per level, up to level 5.

• Added in the missing guidebook entries for the Hijacked Enchanting Table, Rotted Bookshelf, Bleeding Tome, and Diffusion enchantment.

• Rewrote a few of the guidebook options. Still have a lot to do, but at least it's progress.

  • None of the important ones changed, I'm not that productive

• Added an event that is fired after this mod's config is written to/pulled from disk.

  • Since I used Forge's built in Config GUI, there was no event that was fired in between loading and setting up secondary variables.
  • Now, though, a SRPCConfigChangedEvent.Post is fired.
    • This can be used to make runtime-exclusive modifications, like how a preinit hook into SRP's configs would function.
    • There's also a Pre version as well.
    • None of these events use any of Cotesia Glomerata's classes. Make of that what you will.
  • This is probably useless information for those of you who aren't specifically looking for it.

== And now, for the big ones:

• Ante now progresses in increments of 20 days, rather than 10.

  • Realistically speaking, making this longer only serves to help those who were having trouble
  • The Reaction System handles faster progression much better than a short fuse anyway

• Yielding now requires an active Bounty in order to be applied.

  • Over time, I've realized that the current iteration of this effect disincentivizes using stronger parasites over nimbler ones.
  • For packs where gear is plentiful, it may not be as impactful.
  • Now, the effect is a punishment rather than a foregone conclusion.

• Reduced the Gravity potion effect's base damage to 2.5, from 10.

• Reduced the Maximum speed amplifier for Enhanced Mobs from 7 to 3.

• Increased the delay between Critical Hits for Enhanced Mobs

• Fixed disabling Yielding causing a NullPointerException

• Fully removed Burning in Sunlight and related options.

Config Changes

== Main

• Biomass Settings - Hijacked No Biomass Interactions - Whether all hijacked parasites are prevented from having biomass interactions (Ex. being created via a Factory).

• Potion Settings - Gravity - Gravity Damage - Reduced to 2.5, from 10

• Enchantment Settings - New Category: Bulwark

== Armageddon

• Creeping Salt - Saltines Need Saltable Blocks - Whether saltines need a parasitic block below them in order to be placed.

• Ante - Enhanced Mobs: Maximum Speed Amplifier - Reduced to 3, from 7

• Ante - Ante Ticks - Increased to 480000, from 240000

• Ante - Burning In Sunlight Options - removed.

• Enhanced Mobs - Critical Hit Delay - Increased to 60, from 30

• Enhanced Mobs - Yielding Bounty Requirement - Whether an Enhanced Mob needs an active Bounty in order to apply the Yielding effect.

A few loose ends

Changes:

• Fixed the Sentient/Living Pick-axe not mining Chitin stairs and slabs quickly.

• Fixed dying causing factory-spawned parasites to temporarily forget you

• Updated Chinese Translation (Lupus_with_Dusk)

• Fixed Well movement not working. They were stuck in the dimensions they were in.

• Fixed dimension availability check for fixing Wells erroneously checking the well counts in each dimension

• Removed the Death Point Loss multiplier from Enhanced Mobs.

  • Its impact was relegated to the early game and it was ineffective anywhere else.

• Added a flat multiplier for the XP from the Reclamation Table. It is set to 3x by default.

• New Block: Hijacked Enchantment Table

  • Functions as a more deterministic chunk-based Enchantment Table.

    • The goal was add an analogue for enchantments from Villager trading. It isn't a 1 to 1 comparison, though.

  • Each enchantment is sourced from the chunks in a 3x3 grid around the table (centered on the chunk the table is in)

    • The randomness here is akin to that of Slime Chunks: random until you've seen it.
      • (Internally, this and Slime Chunks do similar calculations)
    • North is up in the table UI.

  • Lapis will increase the level of the applied enchantment. Ex. you need 4 lapis for Protection IV.

    • This will also increase the cost.

  • Item Enchantability and Enchanting Power (bookshelves) will reduce the cost by at most 30% and 30%, respectively.

    • These stack additively! You can theoretically get at most a 60% discount. That's with gold tools, though.

  • By default, enchantments are not tailored for the item in the table's slot.

    • This can be changed in the config, however, to only allow enchantments for that item type.
    • This causes every chunk to have a (possibly different) enchantment for every item type.

  • Enchanting costs both levels and biomass, the cost is displayed on the buttons for enchanting.

    • The levels are display sugar, internally raw experience points are used

  • The table can enchant items that have already been enchanted, XP cost is increased per existing enchantment.

• New Item: Bleeding Tome

  • Has a designated slot in the Hijacked Enchantment Table
  • Records the enchantments for the chunks the table is used in, allowing you to access them from any table at any location

• New Block: Rotted Bookshelf

  • Twice the enchanting power, immune to the biome.
  • Created by giving a Bookshelf to a Factory.

TO SALT THE EARTH

This changelog may be incomplete. Apologies.

Changes

• Configs have been moved to the srpcotesia directory in the config folder.

  • I made sure to keep the names the same for your convenience.

• Configuration files will now uphold versioning.

  • If an old config file is detected, it will be OVERRIDDEN with the new defaults.

  • The original file won't be lost! It will instead be copied and placed as a backup file in the same directory.

    • Only one backup file can exist per config file, however.

  • This is meant to smooth over major changes as updates progress. I probably won't be increasing config versions unless the file changes significantly.

  • If you are not keen on data loss, you can instead change the VERSION property in your file of choice to the new value.

  • Wrangling Forge's Config API was an interesting experience, to say the least.

  • This can be disabled, of course, with the "Version Checking Enabled" entry in srpcotesia.cfg.

== The new "API" does not do anything to files from before this update. This is a limitation, but it also makes for an easier adjustment.

= Despawning System

• Factory-Spawned parasites can now despawn.

  • They will no longer be marked as persistent, although any existing parasites in your world from before the update will still be persistent.
  • The behavior has been tweaked, however. Instead, 4 other parasites from the same owner must be found that fulfill the specified criteria:
    • Only parasites with an equivalent or higher tier will be counted.
      • Parasites marked with the Macabre Pearl will only count other marked parasites.
      • The Assimilated Ender Dragon will be considered Tier 5 if it is not already higher.
      • Nexus-tier Parasites will only consider other nexus-tiers. Granted they can only despawn in a parasite biome but still
    • The Dendritus prevents its Dispatcher from being culled this way.
    • Saddled parasites are prevented from despawning as long as they have a saddle equipped.
  • If the above succeeds, the parasite will be despawned. This is only calculated when the parasite is about to despawn via normal behavior.
    • A pass also causes the next few calls to pass automatically, to avoid excessive loops.

• New Weapon: Parasitic Guandao

  • The easiest comparison would probably be a Glaive, but the blade has a hook on the back to catch an opponent's weapon (it doesn't actually do that in game, that'd be silly). It also emits Incense, like a Censer.

  • The Incense decreases damage taken by parasites in an area. The strength of this depends on the Blade material.

    • The reduction is much higher if two conditions are met:
      • The attacker has been struck with the weapon (there are particles to indicate this)
      • You are holding the weapon, instead of it being in the hotbar.

  • This rendition is crafted with two variable components: the Blade and the Coating.

    • Think of the blade as what it's made out of, like a Diamond Axe. The harder it is to get its material, the better it is. Simple.
    • The Coating is relegated to mostly vanilla materials. Iron and Diamond are good examples.

  • If you're confused on how it works, just pick the materials with the highest numbers on them that you can find, that ought to work!

  • This weapon is analogous to Terraria's Whips.

    • Deals much less base damage than what you may be used to, at least on tier. It is not meant to be used on its own.
    • Deals AOE magic damage on hit, although the AOE more akin to a sword sweep, and not centered on the mob hit.
      • Consider it a large sword sweep. Does NOT benefit from most damage enhancements.
      • The AOE damage counts as "incensing" the mobs hit, causing Tag Damage to take effect.
      • The sweep will ignore mobs that are not of the same species as the mob you struck, unless they are targeting a parasite.
        • Players are an exception, they are targeted regardless.
      • Hitting a parasite with the weapon will apply this to all nearby non-parasites, minus any AOE damage. It won't deal any damage to the parasite, of course.
    • This weapon has 8 blocks of range. If SRP's weapon packets are disabled, this mod will use vanilla's reach attribute for compatibility.
      • Otherwise, a custom hit packet is used, like base SRP. This will actively attempt to bypass hitting parasites, although the AOE should handle cases where that isn't present.
    • Any mob hit with a Guandao will take increased damage from parasites depending on the Coating's Tag Damage.
      • The material used to coat the blade determines both the Tag Damage and any special material-specific on-hit effects.
      • Tag Damage is reduced depending on the speed at which the parasite is attacking. It is also roughly halved for indirect damage.
    • The Blade material determines the aforementioned cap, as well as the buff intensity and damage of the weapon itself.

  • Certain Enchantments can increase tag damage. These are generally standard damaging enchantments, nothing that takes into account effects a mob may have.

    • For instance, Sharpness (as well as any similar-enough derivatives, like Smite) will provide bonuses to tag damage as if it was regular damage.
    • I really cannot provide a reliable list here, it really depends on how the enchantment is coded. Most probably won't work.

  • In short, better materials = more damage reduction and more parasite damage.

  • You do not need to hold the weapon to provide the defensive buffs, just have it in your hotbar. The buff is weakened if you don't hold it, however.

    • In order for parasites to deal more damage, however, you'll need to be holding it.

  • Parasite Players receive no bonuses from this weapon themselves, only other parasites.

• The handle: Mirewood Pole

  • Mirewood Sticks can be created via trading a Stick, costing 1 biomass each.
  • When combined with Rupter Viscera, a Mirewood Pole can be crafted. This is used as the handle.

• You will need a Blood Lotus to craft this weapon.

  • Trading a (1 block tall) flower with a Factory will net you one. 1 biomass is needed.
  • They can be duplicated with Bone Meal, but can only be planted on Dirt and parasitic soil (Hivesoil, Infested Soil, Visceral Mud, etc)
  • Normally, a Lotus is meant to grow in water. This one didn't get the memo. Poor thing

• Blade Materials: Sparse Chitin, Marrow Chunk, Malformed Bone, Reformed Bone, Vigilant Bone

  • Each one corresponds to a parasite tier.
  • Sparse Chitin is a rare drop from salvaging with a Rupter Factory, but can also be made by trading Leather.
  • The Marrow Chunk can be obtained by salvaging with any Incomplete Form Factory.
  • The Malformed Bone is crafted from Marrow Chunks and Altered Tendons.
  • The Reformed Bone is an upgrade to the Malformed Bone created similarly to the Living Pick-axe, 60 biomass is required.
  • The Vigilant Bone is crafted using a Reformed Bone and two Vigilante Kneecaps, the former of which is from a Vigilante Factory. This has no tag damage cap.

• Vanilla Coatings: Flint, Iron, Gold, Diamond, Hivesteel, Quartz, Prismarine

  • Quartz deals 2x tag damage in the nether, prismarine deals 2x tag damage to enemies in water or rain.

• Ice and Fire Coatings: Dragonbone, Iced Dragonbone, (If RLCraft's fork of InF is installed) Shocked Dragonbone (Fire is not here for obvious reasons)

  • The Dragonbone variant coatings cause parasite attacks to inherit the dragon blood properites, so they will freeze/shock enemies that are hit.
  • The Chain Lightning will deliberately avoid hitting parasites if possible. It will also ignore other parasite players.

• Ores Above Diamonds Coatings: Amethyst, Black Opal

• Factories and the Latch can no longer despawn under any circumstances.

• Player-spawned Rupters will throw themselves at their enemies without a second thought...

  • ...Unless their creator is more than 40 blocks away, or just not present. Then common sense will kick in.

• Parasite player following AI has been tweaked.

  • If the parasite is following another parasite with a lower tier than a player, they will prioritize the player instead.
  • If the parasite can, they will always follow the player that created them.
    • This bypasses the requirement that the player has the required bloom tier.
    • It also takes precedence even over other parasites of higher tier.

• Fixed the Macabre Pearl's teleportation logic incorrectly checking for collision at the parasite's location, rather than the player.

• The Macabre Pearl now prevents parasites from being passively absorbed by Factories. Parasites that have been nametagged are also ignored.

• The above parasites also now produce death messages when they die, like tamed mobs.

• Assimilated/Feral Endermen can no longer teleport any of the following:

  • Saddled parasites
  • If they were not made by a player, any player-made parasite is off limits.
  • Any parasites that were created by a different player.
  • Any parasites that are marked with the Macabre pearl, provided they are not also marked.

• Parasite players don't feel nauseous from eating human flesh (Dissolution/Requiem)

  • They've done worse. Those villagers had it coming

• Fire now drains biomass 3x slower than it did before.

• Attacking a parasite will put them out if they are on fire. You obviously need to be a parasite to do this, of course, and it won't deal any damage.

• Assimilated Humans and Villagers will now keep their factory-spawned status when they become Hosts.

• Factory-spawned parasites will no longer phase through walls towards a target if their creator cannot see said target.

  • If the creator isn't present, they'll act as normal.

• New Item: Nature's Mockery

  • Accumulates kills similarly to the Nidus Accumulator.
  • When it reaches 10 (and when the item is used after (or before) the fact) the stored kills will be converted to 5 biomass each.
    • Using the item when it has less than 10 kills will only give 3 biomass per kill rather than 5.
    • If the player does not have enough space for the biomass, only the maximum amount they can handle will be extracted.
  • The item will be damaged each time it is used, and has 10 uses. It can be repaired either via Mending or a Summoner.

• New Ability: Leer

  • Unlocked at Tier 0. That means you have it at the start.
  • On use, does one of two things:
    • If the player is facing an entity (50 block range), that entity will be immediately targeted by all parasites within 70 blocks of the player, provided they can see the player.
    • Otherwise, all nearby parasites will attempt to path to the position the player is facing. This can be up to 50 blocks away, with the same 70 block inclusion range.
  • If any of the above occurs, following AI for these parasites will be paused for 30 ticks, or a second and a half.

• Orb is replaced with Spawn Succor at Tier 5.

  • Succors will travel in a straight(?) line to around 25 blocks in front of the user.
  • Any blocks they break should drop as items. The Succor inherits the fortune level of its maker on creation.
    • Phasing, of course, prevents this.
  • If the player is sneaking when detonating the Succor, they will be teleported to it.
    • If there aren't any solid blocks for 20 blocks beneath the succor, the player will not be able to teleport. This is here to hopefully prevent people teleporting themselves into the void.
  • A succor cannot be spawned if an orb, either from the player or another succor, is already active.
    • Using the ability while an existing Succor is active will cause it to instantly detonate.

• Parasite Players can now use Lures to pause point loss on death for all parasites.

  • This incurs a points contributed cost. The amount of time the pause lasts and the cost depend on the level of lure used.

• Fixed Incomplete Forms not carrying over the player that created them if COTH infection fails.

• Relaxed the Living Scythe/Maul mixins to fix a crash with RLMixins

• Parasites should now inherit any looting effects the player may have.

• The Clotting potion effect now only prevents healing at a 25% chance per amplifier.

  • Enhanced Mobs will now attempt to apply Clotting II if the target already has Clotting I.
  • Salt now applies Clotting II by default.

• Holding LSHIFT while an item tooltip is cycling through factories that can produce that item will stop it from cycling.

• Partial Chinese Translation (zh_cn.lang) by Lupus_with_Dusk

• The XXXX Unlocked messages now have a brief explanation of the ability's functionality.

• Overseers can now perform item repair, like Summoners.

  • As for justification, I assumed that them being the only Pure that can make Biomass entities a reasonable enough reason.
    • If you're still on the fence, just pretend the player is doing the repairing or whatever

• The Masticator now directly states that a Parasite Biome is required to upgrade it to The Consecrator.

• The Masticator/Consecrator's point output now scale multiplicatively with the current Evolution Phase. It is 3x per extra phase.

• Fixed the Dendritus's minimum distance incorrectly adding more range than necessary

• The Electroreceptor is no longer used to find bounties. Instead, the EMF Reader is used instead.

  • The EMF Reader functions as a much weaker analogue to a compass. You'll need to right click on an Enhanced Mob to actually pick up a signal.
  • Once the bounty is found, however, the item will record its location internally.
  • When facing the general direction of the Bounty, it will light up. Following this direction should lead you to the Bounty itself.

• Crafttweaker can now access the Points Contributed of a Parasite Player through their IPlayer instance.

  • This is done with the parasiteKillC field.
  • This is the full list of fields, both existing and the new one:
    • isParasite
    • corpseBloom
    • parasiteKillC
    • parasiteBiomass
    • parasiteMaxBiomass

• Threat-related items have been moved to a separate Creative Mode gui tab. The icon is greyed out.

• Fixed The Pact (Resolute) not being useable on parasites.

• Fixed a bug in the killcount calculation causing Bloom 9 and 10 to be unreachable.

  • As a consequence of this fix, if "Require Evolution Phase for Upgrade" is disabled, any entries added to the list will constitute new bloom values past 10.

  • This technically allows for as high of a max bloom as you wish, provided there are enough entries to give each value a milestone.

  • if "Require Evolution Phase for Upgrade" is enabled, extra values will do nothing as per usual.

  • This quirk literally does not affect most people at all. If you aren't a pack dev just ignore it and accept the bugfix

• Fixed a bug where Phase Boosters would be duplicated on death.

• Parasite Players can now climb walls at the very beginning, provided they are not hiding.

  • I have gone through trials and tribulations to allow for climbing to negate fall damage.
    • Apparently collidedHorizontally is always false on the server for players. That means a custom collision check is needed.
  • You can also Leap while climbing a wall! That means wall jumping!
    • I doubt it'll be of much use, but still!

• The list of parasites that the Bloodstained Saddle can make rideable is now config-driven.

  • I cannot vouch for any additions to this list not looking strange. That is on you.
    • I was going to add the Haunter and Colony Carrier to the rideable list, but they have clipping issues, sadly.
  • Also added Primitive/Adapted Reeker, Summoner, Adapted Yelloweye, Overseer, Light Bomber, Wraith, and Bogle to the list.
  • That also means Flying Parasites are now supported! Hold Space (Jump Key) to ascend, hold X (Mount Descend Key) to descend, hold both to stop all vertical movement entirely (good for managing momentum).
  • Factories, as well as any other Deterrent/Nexus version, are internally blacklisted. They won't work even if they are in the list.

• Parasites that are saddled or under the effects of the Latch will no longer use Dispatcher Tentacles or Succors to teleport, if applicable.

• The Dendritus and the Phasing effect now fully prevent the breaking of light sources and circuit blocks in range/while active. This is toggleable.

==== Enhanced Mob and Ante changes

• Dimensions and/or mobs can now have their enhancement chances reduced/increased with a config-driven multiplier.

  • As a result of this change, The End has had its enhancement chance reduced by a factor of (around) 3, or a 0.3 multiplier.

• Fixed Critical AOE failing if even a single entity did not meet the requirements.

• Fixed Critical AOE having more range than indicated by the config variable.

  • This actually ended up reducing the range by roughly half a block.

• The Latch is now immune to the Critical AOE effect. It is not, however, immune to getting hit directly.

• Enhanced Mobs now deduct 3x more points when killing a parasite than usual.

• Enhanced Mobs can no longer spawn in the Parasite Biome, provided they are within a Node's spread range.

• Fixed the Living and Sentient Maul bypassing Defense.

• Tweaked post-Phase 10 spawning behavior to reduce the amount of Enhanced Mobs present

• Ante stat multipliers have been changed.

  • Ante 2 has had its multipliers completely removed.
  • Ante 5 and 9 are now 1.5 for Defense, rather than 2x. 9 has had its Bane multiplier removed.

• Hyper Armor no longer directly reduces damage taken by its value.

  • It will still convert attacks below its value to healing, but it will do nothing if the damage exceeds it.

• Enhanced Mobs now have a Damage Cap.

  • This effectively serves as a similar minimum hits threshold to that of the parasites' damage cap, but it's a little bit stricter.
  • The following explanation is more of a metaphor. The actual calculation is very simple
    • The mob's total health (including defense if applicable) is divided into (damage cap) equal parts.
    • Damage dealt can at most reduce the mob's health to the next lowest part from the one the mob's current health is in. This next part will only have at most 1% diminished.
  • The cap is reduced by 1 whenever it is exceeded. This means stronger hits aren't entirely useless, and in fact can be more effective if done rapidly enough.
  • The damage cap is calculated AFTER Hyper Armor. This means that the resulting damage may be below the hyper armor threshold without actually causing any healing. Best to take what you can get.
  • If the cap is exceeded, the Enhanced Mob will be Jammed for a half second. This may prevent a crit from triggering!

• The Damage Cap is tripled for bosses. This is configurable.

• The Damage Cap does not increase with Ante, but it can be configured to.

  • This is because I didn't want to overincentivise parasites that attack faster than others.

• All three major stats has been reduced by around half (Bane has been roughly reduced by a factor of six), and the base spawning chance has been quadrupled.

  • The goal was to create a more prevalent presence, and to do that they needed to be much weaker.

• Enhanced Mob Contact Damage and the Daybroken Ante milestone have been disabled.

  • The latter will likely change completely, in its current state it just discourages gameplay.
  • Contact Damage might come back with a nerf in the future.

• Ante will increase whenever the phase goes past certain milestones. This is called a Reaction. You will see "Too fast. Too soon."

  • For instance, when the Phase is 3, Ante will increase to 2 within a few minutes, provided it isn't already 2.
  • Here are the current Reactions:
  • 2 -> 1
  • 3 -> 2
  • 4 -> 3
  • 5 -> 4
  • 6 -> 5
  • 7 -> 6
  • 8 -> 7
  • If a reaction occurs, the next Ante increase will be cancelled to smooth out the transition a bit.

• Critical Hits have been moved down to Ante 3, from Ante 4.

• There can now only be a max of 30 motes in the world.

• Motes now only apply Gravity if the following conditions apply:

  • The target is above them. Wouldn't really make much sense to do that otherwise
  • the target is within 5 blocks horizontally of their target. This does not factor vertical distance.
  • The Enhanced Mob must be standing on the ground.

• Reduced damage from Gravity from 20 to 10, and its velocity per tick from 0.5 to 0.25.

• Gravity no longer deals True Damage if the target is on fire, instead the damage will be 4x greater and all adaptations will be reduced by 2.

• An Enhanced Mob can now only crit every 30 ticks.

• The Signal Jammer's effects now last a full ingame day.

• Passive Mobs will no longer be enhanced until Ante 4.

• Bounties now increase the Enhanced Mob spawning chance by 20%.

• Bounties can no longer be placed by Endermen and, if Lycanites Mobs is installed, Grues.

  • This is due to their teleportation behavior hindering the main way you are supposed to locate bounties.
    • I suppose this is what I get for parroting that over and over.
  • Granted, Grues are far less of an issue since they fly and tend to teleport to their targets anyway, but still.

• Bounties now need Enhanced Mobs to get close to the player to be placed.

  • Physical damage counts. Either the player must attack the mob directly, or the other way around.
    • Attacks via projectiles or other parasites do not count.
  • Otherwise, the mob just needs to get within 5 blocks.

• Enhanced Mobs that have noclip cannot place bounties. For an example, consider the Vex.

  • They can, however, still tattle to other Enhanced Mobs! Granted, you'd need to get close to those for that to matter much anyway.

• Enhanced Mobs will now be present at Ante 0. They will lack most of their abilities, however.

• Yielding now only deals 2.5% of maximum health per amplifier. The chance to increase said amplifier is now slightly lower,

• Enhanced Mobs will now receive Fire Resistance instead of being immune to fire damage, and only when they are targetting a parasite.

• New Item: Tally Counter

  • Can be used to get the current Ante value. Ante is now also mentioned by name in the guidebook.
  • I figured something like this was necessary given the new Reaction system would make using the current day counter not feasible.
  • I briefly considered using actual tally marks, but those take up too much space and may be hard to read for some.

• New Item: Frayed Wires

  • Occasionally drops (50% chance) from Enhanced Mobs regardless of Ante. Serves as a common crafting component. Still toxic to have in the inventory.
  • Used, as of now, to make the Tally Counter and EMF Reader. They can also be traded for 5 evolution points.

• Well Sealer recipe outputs have been doubled.

• Bounties can no longer be placed if the block below them is passable. This generally means no floating bounties.

• Removed some lines of text from the Threat-related items. In retrospect, they were a bit of a mischaracterisation.

With that, the new list should be as follows:

• Disclaimer: The schedule will be thrown off if a Reaction occurs. If one does occur, these milestones will occur earlier than expected. A Tally Counter should be used to keep track.

• 0 - Day 0+ - Enhanced Mobs appear, unlock Bane and Damage Cap by default.

• 1 - Day 10+ or Phase 2 - Unlock Speed, Parrying, and Defense

• 2 - Day 20+ or Phase 3 - Enhanced Mobs unlock Motes and Critical Hits

• 3 - Day 30+ or Phase 4 - Enhanced Mobs unlock Hyper Armor, Effect Cap, and Tattling. Sleeping no longer generates Evolution Points.

• 4 - Day 40+ or Phase 5 - Enhanced Mobs unlock Bounties, and Bounty Intervention. Passive Mobs can now be Enhanced,

• 5 - Day 50+ or Phase 6 - Remnants now drop - Enhanced Mobs unlock Yielding. Bane and Defense multiplied by 1.5x

• 6 - Day 60+ or Phase 7 - Motes now deal Yielding minimum damage on hit (They deal no damage prior), Mote count is increased to 2

• 7 - Day 70+ - Critical chance is increased to 75%, Critical Hits apply Clotting

• 8 - Day 80+ - Motes deal regular damage alongside Yielding damage (no longer boss exclusive)

• 9 - Day 90+ - All attacks are critical hits, Defense multiplied by 1.5x

• 10 - Day 100+ - Nothing

• Currently Disabled: Parasites burn in sunlight, Contact Damage

==== TL:DR - Weaker(?) mobs, but more of them are spawning.

• New "Potion" Effect: Trauma

  • Applied via contact with Salted blocks, or while the Ruinous Salt item is in the inventory.
  • Increases damage from Enhanced Mobs, Salt blocks, and Yielding by 40% per level.
  • Increases its amplifier instead of expiring when its duration runs out.
  • Killing a mob reduces the amplifier by 1 stage.
    • The chance of this working decreases by 10% per each amplifier, starting at 100% at I and decreasing from there.
  • TL:DR - Marked for death, kill to gain time.

• A bit of an aside; I considered giving all parasites the opportunity to recieve the Trauma effect, but eventually decided against that.

  • Mostly due to logistics. Figuring out a way to manage it for yourself is already enough work. At least I think

• New Armageddon Mechanic: Creeping Salt

  • Upon death by Enhanced Mob (or an existing salt block) after Phase 3, a Saltine may be placed on the corpse of the victim (provided they are an ADAPTABLE parasite. This excludes all Assimilateds and most Inborns).
    • This has a 0.1% chance of happening. There is an accompanying sound cue.
    • The chance is 75% if the parasite was a Nexus-tier parasite.
      • Nexus-tiers need to have existed for at least 300 ticks (15 seconds) in order to trigger saltine placement.
  • Saltines will assimilate any nearby parasitic blocks into Salted Blocks.
    • If a Graduate Saltine is in range, all Salted blocks will do this.
  • Each block that is salted will deduct 100 evolution points.
    • Whenever a Parasite Biome x/z coordinate is converted into a Salt biome, 10000 points are deducted. There are 256 x/z coordinates in a chunk.
    • Whenever a Node is converted, 50000000 (50 million) points are deducted. This will be broadcast.
    • Whenever a Colony is converted, 500000 (500 thousand) points are deducted. This will be broadcast.
    • Whenever a Dendritus is converted, 1000 points are deducted. This will be broadcast, but only to parasite players.
  • If points are taken during an Evolution Cooldown, the points will be tallied and deducted once the cooldown is up.
    • The amount deducted cannot exceed 1/5 of the current amount of points the parasites have.

• The Dendritus's Phasing is capable of dramatically slowing the spread. If one is active within 100 blocks, that is.

  • This also makes Salt Items no longer apply their effects. Multiple may be needed in dire circumstances.
  • Remember, it is still spreading, albeit comically slowly! Don't use this as an excuse to not do anything about the problem!

• Damage from Creeping Salt can only be reduced by 40% via adaptation.

• New Block Set: Salted Blocks

  • Salted Log, Ice, Earth, Rock, and Wood. The latter three have slabs and stairs.
    • All of these blocks spread Creeping Salt
    • Enhancement chance is increased when spawning on top of these blocks by 50%
    • Ante level of spawned Enhanced Mobs increased to 4 when they spawn on the blocks
  • Salted Vine, analogous to parasite biome vines.
  • Salted Tendril, analogous to infested vines.
  • Salted blocks/vines will damage parasites that touch them, as well as inflicting Trauma and Clotting.

• New Block: Saltine

  • Resembles a parasite remain. The resemblance is purposeful.
  • May become a Graduate Saltine given enough time. This has a 5% chance to be checked every random tick.
    • A few criterion need to be satisfied for this to occur. This is not the order they are checked in.
      • There needs to be a Parasite Player within 200 blocks. This one is mostly here for Multiplayer's sake, I anticipate foul play. It's also toggleable.
      • There needs to be at least 2 Salted Blocks within 2 blocks of the Saltine, not including itself. The number required can be changed.
        • In other words, Saltines will usually only graduate in an area with existing salt blocks, either by its own making or from some other source.
      • The Saltine needs to be far enough away from an existing Graduate. There is around 20 blocks of leeway in this regard, 10% of the effect radius.
      • The dimension needs to not be blacklisted in the config.
  • It is important to note that, unlike other events, Saltines do not inform you what the sound means.
    • Graduation is the exception. It will let you know.
  • New Saltines can only be placed past 80% of the range from an existing Graduate saltine. This is mostly a balancing decision.

• New Command: /srpcsaltine <list|clear> or /srpcsaltine <add|remove>

  • Manages Graduate Saltines. Syntax is identical to /srpcbounty, minus the known parasite functionality.
  • For instance, if you have a Graduate Saltine in a dimension you don't want it in, you could use [/srpcsaltine clear] to remove it.
    • You'll need to blacklist the dimension in the config to prevent new ones from forming.

• New Biome: Salted Plains

  • Whenever a Salted block salts a parasitic block in the Parasite Biome, the biome will be subsumed into the Salted Plains biome.
  • Any mobs which spawn in the biome will have a 100% chance to be enhanced.
  • Mobs take 50% less damage from parasites in this biome. Damage dealt to parasites is increased by 50% as well.
  • Ante level of spawned Enhanced Mobs increased to 8 when they spawn in this biome
  • A Dense Fog will emerge and your vision will be desaturated if you are in the biome and are a parasite.
  • (There should also be built-in REID support)

• New Item: Ruinous Salt

  • Drops from Salted blocks when mined. Silk Touch does not work on them.
  • Rarely damages the player if in the inventory. Clotting is applied briefly if this occurs.

• New Block: Clutch

  • Behaves similarly to TNT.
  • Crafted from TNT, Blaze Powder, Ruinous Salt, and Iron Ingots, this explosive will eradicate any salt blocks within its range.
    • Crafted in batches of 8. How are you going to get exorbitant amounts of explosives?
  • It will also damage Enhanced Mobs and Motes as well. Non-salt blocks and entities outside of that category are unaffected by it.

• New Block: Salt Purifier

  • Biome Purifier for salt biomes. Does not do anything passively.
  • Crafted with Iron Ingots, a Water Bucket, a Biome Purifier, and Ruinous Salt.

• New Item: Salt Compass

  • Tracks Graduate Saltines. Retains the effects of the Ruinous Salt used to craft it.
  • Crafted with Iron Ingots, Ruinous Salt, and a Compass.

• Chitin now has a slab and stairs.

• Diffusion (either with the new enchantment or with Orbs) no longer considers all SRP effects as detrimental.

  • This means they can be diffused properly now! Apparently they were marked as detrimental despite the buffs some give.

• The Trustworthy/Faustian Note will now record the points contributed of any parasite player that holds it.

  • If another parasite player holds it after the fact, the higher point count takes precedence.
  • Once a player uses the note, they will start with the amount of points recorded by the note.
    • It's a lot easier to get a job if you have references.
  • If you somehow already had points before using the note (cheater), and the amount of points is more than the note recorded, then your current count will take precedence.

• Sentient Pick-axe second texture and Pristine Matter have been redone.

  • The Factory and Parasite Player textures are on my retexture list, but those will take a while, and I am very busy.
    • I also plan on reanimating them, as well as adding a model for the higher tiers of the latter. Again, very busy. Don't expect this anytime soon.

• Retextured Recuperation, Antibodies, Scrying, Phasing, Unkindling, Chitin, and the Dread Lamp

• Unkindling is now brewed with a Dirty Needle rather than a Quench. It's also blue now.

• New Enchantment: Tachysensia

  • Dense tissue for movement speed

• New Treasure Enchantment: Undying

  • Factories will drop themselves on death instead of being cast to the void never to return

• New Enchantment: Hive Protection

  • For the Guandao, emulates the Protection enchantment for nearby parasites, reducing damage they take.
  • The maximum level is 6 to account for only needing 1 enchantment rather than 4 for a full set of armor.
  • There is an SoManyEnchantments-exclusive Advanced variant which provides double the protection, as well as an extra 3% damage reduction per level.

• New Enchantment: Diffusion

  • Causes the Guandao to apply any effects you have to nearby parasites. There's a catch, however:
    • The effect amplifiers will be capped at the enchantment's level. So if you only have Diffusion I, any resulting application is capped at that amplifier.
      • It only goes up to level 3 as well, so that's the best you're going to get.
    • Furthermore, the effects only really last as long as the incense itself does.
  • Orbs are meant to be a more robust way of diffusing effects, but even with these stipulations Diffusion may be better in certain cases.

• Parasite player regeneration now uses setHealth() like other parasites instead of heal(). This change is toggleable.

  • The amount of value a single point of biomass provides is also now configurable.

• Reduced the costs of certain parasites: Reduced cost of Mangler to 9 Reduced cost of Adapted Arachnida to 45 Reduced cost of Adapted Manducater to 40 Reduced cost of Adapted Yelloweye to 40

Just some housekeeping

None of the retextures are here. I want to release all of those (alongside any remodels) all at once, so that will take a while. It'd look strange if I didn't.

Changes

• Incomplete forms produced via mobs being below the health threshold will now have their owners properly marked now.

• Added recipes to create the Nidus Accumulator from Altered Tendons or Toxic Lungs, instead of Dispatcher Membranes.

  • For that matter, Dispatcher Membranes can be used as a substitute for Beckon Membranes when crafting the Beckon Harbringer. Go figure.

• The Macabre Pearl now also shows what parasites are yours when held, alongside the Factory. Additionally, Loyal parasites will have the witch potion particle effect when either item is held.

• Light Block breaking behavior for parasites now ignores all infected blocks from this mod, rather than just light sources. It might have already done that, but better safe than sorry.

• Removed a since-deleted lang entry from the tooltip for the Bloody Clock.

• Using the Macabre Pearl on a Factory will cause any parasites it creates to be Loyal, as if the pearl was used on them.

  • Also touched up the on-use messages a bit. They now imply the new factory capability that the item has, as well as that it does nothing of value for other Deterrent parasites.

• Factories are now forced as Factory-Spawned internally. Just figured that made sense.

• Added a bit of dialogue for trying to use a Macabre Pearl on a Latch. That would be pointless.

• New Item: Blighted Mirror

  • Shows Beckons and Dispatchers in a similar vain to the Glowing effect while held. Works in the offhand as well.
  • This may look strange if Shaders are enabled, but the mobs should still be visible through blocks.
    • There's also a new mixin for the Entity Culling mod, since that doesn't check for glowing.
      • Specifically NOT the one made by meldexun. That one should already work. There may be a warning about a class not existing now but that's harmless
  • Obtained by trading a Strange Bone with a Factory. Requires Tier 3.

• New Item: The Pact (Resolute)

  • For those of you who didn't know, The Pact can be used while sneaking to prevent the consumption of the item and the ensuing Evolution Cooldown.
    • However, this can be annoying and the item could be used without sneaking accidentally. That and people might not have known this.
  • Crafting The Pact with a Dispatcher Membrane will produce a "Resolute" version that will never be consumed, or create a cooldown.
    • As a caveat, however, it will also not create a Scent Gland, much like when sneaking with the original Pact.
    • This makes it more of a utility item than a means to an end.

• The Pact now must actually remove parasites in order for it to receive the 10 second cooldown. If it doesn't, it'll only be 1 second long.

  • This is NOT the Evolution Cooldown. This is the standard Minecraft item cooldown. Just so we're clear.

• Fixed Monarchs not yielding parasite parts when salvaging with a Factory.

• Fixed Fear Panic behavior affecting non-parasites. Very embarassing, I'd hate to be the guy that did that

• Parasite Players will have their particles from the Rage effect rendered at knee level to prevent blocking their view.

  • Additionally, Parasite Players will not have their particles render if they are hiding. This prevents the Rage effect from giving you away.

  • On top of this, your particles won't even render in First Person anymore! They will only render in Third Person now. This is configurable.

  • Most of these changes are both client side and only apply to you. Any other parasite players you see will have the particles render normally, aside from the hiding change.

  • Granted, it appears the particles don't appear more often than not for other entities anyway. Not sure why that is, it happened even before I messed with the code. Oh well.

Config Changes

• Client - Macabre Pearl: Show Loyal Parasites - Whether a Loyal (Macabre Pearl) parasite will emit particles when you are holding a Factory or Macabre Pearl.

• Client - Show Factory Spawned Parasites - Now mentions the Macabre Pearl as well.

• Client - Parasite Player Rage Particles - Whether Parasite Players can see their own Rage particles. If false, takes precedence over the 'Third Person Rage Particles' setting.

• Client - Third Person Rage Particles - Whether you can see your own Rage particles while in Third Person mode only.

This one. THIS ONE. The main reason it took this long was just figuring out issues that kept cropping up, it's like a game of whack-a-mole and I'm not having fun anymore

Don't even get me STARTED on Requiem. The 1.12.2 version of the mod is ancient. DO NOT ADD THE RUPTERS TO THE POSSESSION LIST. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. The list of parasites is small for a reason. I would not recommend expanding it. If you ask me to fix it I will eat your soul

There's likely still a few hiccups or things not mentioned in the changelog, a lot has changed over the three month long dev cycle (if you can even call it that)

Please, for the love of all that is carbon-based, delete and redo your config files. Hell, a whole new one has been added!

OH ALSO, Enhanced Mobs and Ante are here, and some new items (and a functional block) have joined them. The certainty of steel Even now, they still aren't entirely finished so to speak. The things I have planned aren't entirely necessary quite yet though.

maybe i should take a break

-------- A temporary bug fix has been implemented for parasites not losing points. This can be toggled in the config.

  • One to reduce your immunity frames, and hit through your defenses
    • It will fight back if you remove it
  • Another to remove your healing entirely, at least it should

  • Oh also the Masticator has a direct upgrade now

• Items tell you if they come from a Factory or not now

• Enchantments in the creative menu

• New Factory Enchantment! It's just Dense Tissue for attack damage

• New parasite-related items!

  • An item to despawn all parasites
  • An item to spawn a special Scent
  • An item to despawn a specific parasite
  • An item to ride certain parasites
  • An item to read parasite killcount

  • An effect to Assimilated Enderman your enemies
  • Levitation and Resistance can now also be applied. I'm not explaining how, use JEI!

• and more(TM)

Changes

• The text in the guidebook has been darkened to increase visibility. It should still be slightly redder than the normal text to indicate that the writer is different

  • For reference, the text is meant to have been written (vandalized) by the player.

• Compatibility with Requiem/Dissolution.

  • Parasite Player ghosts cannot possess most non-parasite mobs. Any mob they do successfully possess will be converted into its Assimilated Variant if possible.
  • Possessing an Assimilated Adventurer or Thrall will allow a Parasite Player to exit the ghost state, regaining their original form.
  • The Health UI may break if you heal. I'm not even going to TOUCH that, it's purely visual and this mod is old as hell
  • Cotesia now adds on an extra list of possessable entities which cannot be possessed by non-parasite players.
    • This, much like Requiem/Dissolution's whitelist, is configurable.
    • Entities that are present in both lists will produce the same behavior, they will only be possessable by parasite players.

• New Item: Electroreceptor

  • Shows parasite killcount when used on one. There's a bit of suspension of disbelief going on here
  • Also reads the Biomass and Kills Contributed of parasite players, but they need to not be hiding.
  • Does not require that the user is a parasite, somehow

• New command: /assimilateplayer

  • Forces the Trustworthy Note cutscene without requiring the item. Does not work if the player is already a parasite or is a ghost.

• The no-parasite-killing requirement for the Trustworthy Note is now toggleable. It's also mentioned in the config now.

  • My sincerest apologies to those of you who got rupter'd before you could find the note.
    • Even if it's a skill issue-

• Armageddon-related config options have been moved to their own config file, srpcotesia_armageddon.cfg

  • Additionally, the structure of the options has changed drastically, each mechanic should have its own category now, rather than all being lumped into the same one.

• Random Point Loss has been removed. I am willing to add it back if some wish for it to return, but the mechanic was gathering dust.

• Enhanced Mobs and Ante are now enabled by default. The Timer, however, is still disabled.

  • Both of these were and still are intended to give Singleplayer playthroughs depth.
  • Them being disabled by default, however, kind of defeated their purpose for most players. This should fix that.
  • Enhanced Mobs have also received a few nerfs to their attributes. I am willing to modify these if it becomes too easy.

• Enhanced Mobs' abilities are also now gated behind Ante levels.

  • Below are the new milestones. All of these should be configurable.
  • You may notice some new mechanics here. They are mentioned later on in the changelog.
  • That includes the multipliers! They are config-driven and can be placed at any Ante level you wish. New ones can be added, too.
  • The expected result is that up until Day 40/50, Enhanced Mobs shouldn't cause too much trouble. You aren't really rewarded for fighting them, either.

• 0 - Day 0+ - Nothing

• 1 - Day 10+ - Enhanced Mobs appear, unlock Speed, Parrying, and Defense

• 2 - Day 20+ - Enhanced Mobs unlock Motes and Bane, Defense multiplied by 2x

• 3 - Day 30+ - Enhanced Mobs unlock Hyper Armor, Effect Cap, and Tattling

• 4 - Day 40+ - Enhanced Mobs unlock Critical Hits, Bounties, and Bounty Intervention

• 5 - Day 50+ - Remnants now drop - Enhanced Mobs unlock Yielding, and gain Contact Damage. Bane and Defense multiplied by 2x

• 6 - Day 60+ - Motes now deal Yielding minimum damage on hit (They deal no damage prior), Mote count is increased to 2

• 7 - Day 70+ - Critical chance is increased to 75%, Critical Hits apply Clotting

• 8 - Day 80+ - Motes deal regular damage alongside Yielding damage (no longer boss exclusive)

• 9 - Day 90+ - All attacks are critical hits, Bane and Defense multiplied by 2x

• 10 - Day 100+ - Parasites burn in sunlight

• With that being said, the Timer (still WIP) now applies Clotting to all parasites when The Threat is 80% present, which disables healing.

  • With the new values, this means it will likely occur around day 60. The exact percentage is configurable, although a bit of math is required.

• Buglin Tunnels will no longer work if the closest player to them is a parasite.

  • Additionally, if they are within 32 blocks, they will decay as well.

• The Ante Ticks config option now mentions an estimate of how many ticks are in a real-life day, for convenience.

• SRP can no longer convert a mob if it has been removed from the world. Not sure if this will fix the incomplete form duplication issue, but we'll see.

• Three new crafting ingredients (technically only two, but eh)

  • Remnants - Special discs dropped by Enhanced Mobs after Ante 5, tied to the entity they dropped from. Assembling 5 different Remnants using a Lithograph will yield Chip Fragments!
    • The Remnant in the creative menu can be used on any mob to obtain their Remnant.
    • Data-Driven (NOT CRAFTTWEAKER, json only) recipes can include a Remnant for a specific mob using the srpcotesia:remnant ingredient factory. use "entity" to specify a specific mob via resource location.
      • An example of this is the Well Magnet recipe.
  • Chip Fragment - Used to craft Callous Chips. Unstable, but safe to have in your inventory. Produced with a Lithograph
  • Callous Chips - Crafted from Chip Fragments, used in a few different crafting recipes.
    • Applies Yielding I as long as it is in your main inventory.

• New functional block, the Lithograph

  • Converts Remnants into Chip Fragments. Produces 3 Chip Fragments (Configurable) for every 5 unique Remnants.
  • The Remnants inserted into a Lithograph must be unique, no duplicates. The block has 5 slots, all of which must be filled.
  • Item addition and removal is identical to the Osmosis.

• Multiple new usable items!

  • Well Magnet - Teleports the nearest Well to around 100 blocks from your current location. Destroyed upon use.
    • Requires, among other assorted ingredients, a Wither Remnant.
  • Signal Jammer - Jams Enhanced Mobs for 10 seconds, preventing them from dealing critical hits. Destroyed upon use. - Also prevents them from tattling on you to nearby Enhanced Mobs.
  • The Pact - Made from Pristine Matter from a Stage III or IV Beckon and a few other materials, dismisses (despawns) all parasites in the world with a few exceptions:
    • If used on its own, it will not remove Nexus Tier parasites.
      • If used on a Nexus Tier, all nexus tiers at or below that nexus's stage will be removed.
    • Nexus tiers that are managing a placed block/structure in the world, such as a Node or Dendritus.
    • Placed Factories.
    • Factory-Spawned parasites that are FORCED to persist (Using The Pact on one nullifies this restriction). For instance, an Adapted Summoner spawned by a Factory is exempt, but any parasites it creates in combat are not. This abides by the Factory Persistence config option.
    • If used while sneaking, parasites will be removed without consuming the item, or playing sounds to other players.
      • Otherwise, the item is consumed and a Scent Gland is produced referencing the highest tier parasites dismissed.
  • Scent Gland - Upon hitting an entity, it will spawn a Scent that will spawn the entities indicated in its tooltip. The item will be consumed.
    • Scents spawned this way will not concede to other scents.
    • Parasites spawned this way are not salvageable, but are considered Factory-Spawned. They can despawn, however.
  • Dismissal Wand - Use on or hit a parasite with it to despawn that parasite. Only works for Parasite players or those in Creative Mode.

• Scents are now visible to parasite players as a blue undulating prism. This can be disabled in the config, if you wish.

  • I wasn't intending on making anything flashy here. Don't get your hopes up.

• Turning parasites into biomass should now produce a Cyst containing any blocks they broke beforehand, along with any other items they picked up in the process. This excludes the saddle, that drops on its own.

• Scents and SRP's spawning mechanics will now ignore persistent Factory-Spawned parasites as well as the Factory and Latch, at least in terms of mobcap calculation.

• The well drain message now indicates directly that points were stolen, instead of just implying something got stronger. Wells don't do that

• Changed one or two lines of dialogue that didn't match with the speaker

  • Also a chance to modify some lines I didn't like.

• A Callous Chip can be used to replace the Diamond Block in the Well Sealer recipe. It gives the same amount of sealers.

• Improved interactions between Minimum Damage, Defense, and Hyper Armor.

  • Hyper Armor will reduce Minimum Damage by half if the damage dealt is below it. Hyper Armor will only heal for regular hits, though, not true damage.
  • Other than that, Minimum Damage will completely bypass Hyper Armor, instead damaging Defense first.
  • This should ideally fix issues where Enhanced Mobs would give parasites free killcount without actually dying.
  • Note, however, that none of these changes will apply to other forms of True Damage. Those will work as they did before, for better or for worse.

• Enhanced Mobs' critical damage multiplier has been reduced to 2x, from 4x.

  • As a consolation, fire damage attacks will now receive the critical bonus. Those don't have SRP's fire damage multiplier anyway, strangely enough, only onFire and inFire get that luxury.

• Enhanced Mobs now deal AOE damage on a crit. This deals 70% of the attack's damage as Auric Fire damage.

  • Due to event order shenanigans, this may not reflect the actual damage amount in highly modded environments. Not much I can do about that, though.

• Enhanced Mobs can now Parry attacks from naturally spawned parasites (this doesn't affect you, unless you make a change in the config...)

  • Whenever a mob they are targetting (or a stray parasitic projectile, not arrows) is moving towards them, Enhanced Mobs may issue a Parry, indicated by sweep particles and a totem sound effect.
  • The parry window is 15 ticks, or 3/4ths of a second. If attacked during this window, the attack will fail and the Enhanced Mob will stun the attacker and any nearby parasites.
    • The stun lasts 4 seconds for parasites, and 2 seconds for parasite players.
    • Enhanced Mobs cannot deal critical hits during this window.
  • If the parry succeeds, there is only a 1 second cooldown, meaning another parry can occur directly after.
  • If the parry fails, however, they will have a 4 second cooldown for using it again.
  • With that being said, maintaining a constant distance from the Enhanced Mob should prevent parries in general.

• Enhanced Mobs can no longer receive any negative potion effect with an amplifier greater than II (configurable), instead lowering the amplifier before application.

  • Like everything else related to Enhanced Mobs, this only applies if the mob is fighting a parasite.
  • This can be disabled by setting it to -1 or lower.

• Enhanced Mobs will now deal contact damage once every half second.

• Enhanced Mobs are now immune to onFire, inFire, lava, and hotFloor.

• Enhanced Mobs are now immune to Slowness, Needler, and all knockback from parasites.

• Enhanced Mobs now use a Fire Charge sound effect, rather than a Flint and Steel click.

• Speaking of sounds, the Well formation sound and the new Discovery sound both have subtitles now!

• Discovery System: Enhanced Mobs will no longer target parasite players that are hiding, at least at the start...

  • They now need evidence to prove a mob is a parasite before using their special abilities. Such evidence includes:
    • Being attacked by, or attacking the suspect. This only induces targeting if the suspect was indeed a parasite.
    • Holding a Factory. Other items may have reasoning, however shaky it may be, but holding one is a dead giveaway.
    • Riding a parasite.
    • Being close enough to receive the effects of the COTH aura. This has its own config option/distance value.
      • This means that Enhanced Mobs will now target hiding parasites of all kinds (Any mob with COTH II or higher that isn't a player, or any parasite player that uses the hiding function) if they are close enough.
      • This may cause mob infighting. The COTH Rework prevents this from happening very often, however, and Enhanced Mobs are already less prevalent in areas with lots of mobs with COTH.
    • Specifically in the case of parasite players, they will remember if you are a parasite and will attempt to tell other nearby Enhanced Mobs that you are a parasite every second.
      • This also has its own config option, if you want to reduce the distance or disable it entirely.

• There is a sound cue for when a parasite player is discovered by an Enhanced Mob. I am not a sound designer, so bear with me here.

• Also, passive Enhanced Mobs are still beholden to the Discovery System, so they can and will tattle on you to the others if they find out you are a parasite.

• The above change should also now be applied to Enhanced Lycanite's Mobs as well. This also fixes their AI since it didn't target hiding parasites before if they were Enhanced.

• If an Enhanced Mob that has discovered the player is left to their own devices for too long, they may place a Bounty.

  • Bounties cannot be placed if the Enhanced Mob is being watched by a player that is less than 25 (configurable) blocks away.
  • This has a 10% chance of happening each time it is rolled. That's configurable if you want it to be even lower. The Signal Jammer can also prevent placement of Bounties.
  • Bounties are tough metallic blocks that keep track of known parasite players. Every Bounty in a dimension will share their knowledge.
  • Any Enhanced Mobs that spawn in range of a Bounty will inherit its knowledge as well. They have 1000 blocks of range, which increases by 1000 more for every other Bounty in a dimension.
    • Bounties cannot be placed in range of an existing Bounty. Instead of placing a Bounty, Enhanced Mobs will communicate their knowledge to the existing one.
      • Any Enhanced Mob that receives the effects of a Bounty cannot place a bounty ever again.
    • If 4 or more Bounties exist in a dimension, their range will become effectively infinite. This can be changed or disabled if you wish.
  • Any Parasite Players discovered by Enhanced Mobs will be sent to a Bounty if in range as well.
  • Bounties increase the mob enhancement chance by 10% for each one that exists in the world.
  • Intervention: Every 30 seconds that a known parasite player is in range of a Bounty, all Enhanced Mobs within 60 blocks will spawn a single mote to chase them, regardless of sight.
    • Rememeber that Motes can teleport their owners to the target if they connect.
    • Both the time needed and the distance can be configured.
    • This also gives the target Yielding III.
    • Motes spawned this way last twice as long as normal Motes.
  • Bounties will only clear their list of known parasite players if there are none left in the world, and the mobs they informed will never forget (they will not tattle or place a new bounty, however)

• The Bounty also has an animated texture! I would never shamelessly plunder an mcmeta file from SRP's Biome Core block, that would be stealing!

• New Command: /srpcbounty

  • Can be used to list all existing Bounties, known Vagrants, or modify said lists via standard addition, removal, and clearing.
  • Usage: /srpcbounty <list|clear|listtargets|cleartargets> or /srpcbounty <add|remove> or /srpcbounty <addtarget|removetarget>

• The /ante command now has a new argument, "recalibrate"

  • This recalculates Ante based on the current world time, good if for some reason you had it disabled for a while

• The newly added Electroreceptor can be used to obtain the coordinates of the nearest Bounty, but there's a catch:

  • Firstly, the Electroreceptor must be used on an Enhanced Mob.
  • Secondly, each use has a cooldown, and only communicates one random coordinate (x, y, or z) each time.
    • It may be easier to simply backtrack to previous locations you have visited, since that is likely to be where a Bounty has been placed.

• The mob enhancement chance is now 10% at base. With the timer disabled, that is where it will stay (provided no Bounties are active)

• A message is now sent to the player if an attack fails due to Hyper Armor

  • Otherwise, the player will be told how much defense the entity has.

• The Ante requirement for burning in sunlight has been increased to 10, from 7.

  • It also has a warning message that plays when Ante reaches this threshold.
  • It no longer directly deals fire daamge. Instead, the parasite will be set on fire and given Yielding II. Fire Resistance can prevent this, but the sunlight will still occasionally remove that.
  • This means it will occur on day 100, but with Wells active it will likely occur earlier if you aren't proactive enough.

• Fire Resistance can only be removed by sunlight every second, rather than every tick. The chance has been increased to compensate.

• Wells will now appear and drain points every 20 days, rather than every 10.

• Wells now subtract more points than they used to.

• The Well grace period has been extended to day 30. This means that the first Well will appear on day 50.

• The maximum distance from the origin that a Well can spawn at is now 5000 blocks, from 20000.

• The Phasing effect now prevents tracking via the Vagrant Divining Rod.

• Latches are now immune to Suffocation damage.

  • They also refer to their owner's oxygen when in water, so they won't drown until their owner does.

• Reduced the Latch's attack damage and maximum health. They now start at 5 and increas by 2 per tier.

• The Latch now properly awards kill credit to its owner.

• Fixed crash due to concurrent AI modification.

• Fixed crash due to clashing with NoExpensive's @Overwrite mixin.

• Fixed crash caused by a non-living entity attacking an Enhanced Mob.

• Fixed crash when querying which dimensions were blacklisted for Well spawning.

• Fixed Flying and Heavy Carrier harming parasite players with their explosions.

• Fixed Parasite explosions breaking blocks in range of a Dendritus.

• Fixed Epic Siege not preserving AI predicates.

  • This fixes parasite player AI targeting for mobs defined in SRP's "attack parasites" mob list.
  • It also fixes Enhanced Mob targetting, since that was broken as well.

• Fixed the Dazed effect preventing the death screen from loading.

• Well command "fix" argument is now suggested when using tab completion.

• Increased the volume of the sound played whenever an Enhanced Mob heals from Hyper Armor

• Fixed Enhanced Mob damage going through shields. The Shield will now take the brunt of the damage.

• Fixed the new attributes applying after Parasite Adaptation, rather than before as it should.

• Fixed being able to block attacks using an empty Brew Sac.

• Fixed duplicate particles on hiding parasites. Syncing of the COTH effect has also been improved.

• Fixed Well point subtraction not intensifying with each Well added, or subtracting points when no Wells were present.

• Successfully infecting a creature will now send a status message alongside the sound cue.

• Fixed desync with the Fear effect's parasite player specific behavior.

  • Also added a item cooldown to indicate what item failed. The Fear effect can cancel the main and offhand individually, meaning one can succeed but not the other.
  • This fix won't be applied in the case of SRP's original Fear behavior being enabled. That is experimental, though, so it is to be expected.

• Items can be blacklisted from obtainment via Factories in the Extra Parasite Drops setting. Using a - rather than a +, one can specify a drop to be removed instead of added.

  • a * can be used in place of an entity id to apply the change to every parasite mob. This goes for adding drops as well as removing them.
  • These are applied in the order present in the config file.
  • All of this applies to creating drops via Factories, not the actual drops from the parasites.
  • For example, if you want no parasite to ever yield Strange Bones, you'd add "*-srparasites:bone"

• JEI should now show factories for every parasite present in the creative menu.

  • Additionally, JEI can also be used to see what factories a Factory Enchantment can be applied to, such as Fluidity or Virulent.
  • JEI Loads on game startup, unlike most of this mod's config options. As a result, JEI will need a game restart if any sizeable changes are made, like registering a new parasite.

• New Potion Effect - Unkindling

  • Reduces fire-based damage sources by 25% per level
  • Also applies Fire Resistance for non-parasite mobs.
  • Can be brewed in a brewing stand using a Quench and a Fire Resistance potion. It can also be strengthened and extended like any other potion effect.

• Unkindling also reduces Enhanced Mob critical damage.

  • However, this reduction is static; Only 50% no matter the amplifier. (With a 2x bonus, this effectively disables the extra damage)
  • It also only applies if the original attack dealt non-fire damage. Otherwise, Unkindling functions as normal, meaning 25% per amplifier.

• New Potion Effect - Yielding

  • Causes 5% of maximum health (per amplifier) to be dealt as true damage each hit from a living entity.
  • Also reduces Immunity Ticks by 10% of the entity's maximum immunity ticks per amplifier.
    • In other words, it reduces your immune time by 10% per amplifier. Mods which modify immunity frame behavior may cause this to break or otherwise function differently than expected.
  • Damage will usually pierce shields.
  • Very unstable. It's potion color may temporarily change from time to time.
  • Attempting to remove the effect or prevent it from being applied will cause it to lash out and attack the offending entity.
  • Applied by Enhanced Mobs on hit.
    • Critical hits can cause it to stack. The chance of doing so is a 1 in (current amplifier) chance.
    • Since the effect reduces I-frames, I figured some limitations were necessary.
  • Yielding IV or higher will cause true damage regardless if a living entity caused the hit, meaning hits from fire will receive the true damage bonus as well.

• This mod's effects can no longer be cured with Milk, excluding Recuperation.

• The factory parasite players start with will always be a Buglin factory. This can be changed in the config, or forced to be unbound if an empty string is used.

  • Additionally, a recipe has been added to create a Buglin factory from any existing factory in the crafting menu.

• New Item - Bloodstained Saddle

  • Allows riding certain parasites. Said parasites will show particles around them while holding the item, or if they are currently rideable.
  • Only works on parasites you made, similarly to the Macabre Pearl
  • The control scheme is similar to that of a horse, minus the slowdown from jumping.
  • Current List: Assimilated & Feral Horse, Assimilated & Feral Pig, Monarch
    • The speed parasites travel at increases as the tier goes up. So a Feral is faster than an Assimilated, but not as fast as a Pure.
  • Can be obtained by trading a Saddle with a Factory. Requires Tier 1.
  • Increases Step Height to 1 block if needed, and prevents fall damage for the parasite saddled.
  • The saddle will drop if the parasite dies or is absorbed. It will only drop in those cases, however; removal from existence will delete the saddle as well!
  • Saddled Assimilateds will not melt into moving flesh.
  • Some higher-tier parasites may not take kindly to being ridden around, or rather, not being able to reach their target. They might teleport you around with Dispatcher Tentacles, or break blocks occaisonally (provided a Dendritus isn't active).
    • You also cannot control their special skills, like the Monarch's leap.
    • The internals for this does not support Flying parasites currently, so if there are any planned it might take a bit to come out.

• An internal mixin has been added to prevent rubberbanding for riding particularly fast parasites.

  • This mixin should fail silently, however, if for some reason it cannot apply.

• New Item: Nidus Accumulator

  • A redo of another item from the dead and buried MCreator project, the Nidus Accumulator will transform into a Dispatcher Nidus when its bearer kills 15 mobs.
  • It needs to be in the hotbar to collect kills, and only one Accumulator can receive a kill at a time.
  • The Nidus also won't be placed on the ground, that way parasites won't accidentally trigger it.
  • The item is mentioned now in the Dispatcher Nidus tooltip, to indicate that it is the intended way to make Niduses at a reasonable rate.
    • Granted, just stealing them does work despite its difficulty, it's just annoying for both you, the parasite you took it from, and another unmentioned beneficiary.

• Added upgrade paths for obtaining Feral parasites.

• Added an entry to the guidebook for Upgrading parasites with a Factory. Also mentioned upgrading to Feral a few times.

• Added config entries to allow for certain damage types to have a limit on how much damage reduction adaptations can provide.

• The SIV Beckon Player upgrade now has a list of dimensions where it does not work.

• In a pinch, Essential Segments can be used instead of Beckon Membranes to create a Beckon Harbringer.

• Parasite Players can now eat cakes. They will be consumed whole, to not waste any biomass.

  • The Cake will not be eaten if the biomass provided is below 1.
  • With the default food conversion rate, this gives 3 biomass for a whole cake.

• The Factory-spawned tag should now properly apply to mobs converted into Ferals or Hijackeds.

• The Masticator now properly reports internally as enchantable. It now has an enchantability of 10.

• The Masticator's block value has been reduced to 1, from 10.

• The Masticator now only deals one instance of Minimum Damage instead of eight every 4 ticks.

  • It also deals 5 points of miasma damage every 12 ticks.

• The Masticator now only applies Poison I and Corrosion I, they are no longer stacking.

• New Tool: The Consecrator, produced by using either a Masticator or Moldered Segments on a Stage IV Beckon in the Parasite Biome.

  • Deals 10 points of miasma damage instead of 5.
  • Applies Viral I alongside Poison II and Corrosion II.
  • Converts blocks into Biome blocks, sneaking converts them into Beckon infested blocks instead.
    • This tool adds 10 points per block, akin to the pre-nerf Masticator.
  • If it converts a block in range of a Node, it will convert the surrounding blocks' biome to the Parasite Biome if possible. 600 Points Contributed will be awarded for each block biome conversion.
    • This doesn't actually add Evolution Points. It's just accounting for the amount of blocks the biome will likely convert on its own, mostly vertically.
    • This is configurable, of course. The biome behavior can also be disabled if one so desires.

• New Enchantment: Flaying

  • Basically Dense Tissue, but for attack damage instead of maximum health. Increases it by 10% per level, up to 50% at level 5.

• Cunning is now a Treasure enchantment, and it has been buffed to add 2 minimum damage per level instead of 1.

• Reduced drop rates and chances for Factory Innards from Parasite Players and Factories.

• Books for this mod's enchantments are now present in the creative menu. Additionally, if you wish to include all levels of said enchantment, that has a config option.

• Enhanced Mob Bane interacts with the parasite damage cap.

  • If a parasite has a damage cap, the Bane will be reduced by ((damageCap - 1) / (damageCap * 3)) as a percentage.
  • So a damage cap of 5 reduces bane by 26%. A dc of 15 reduces it by 31%.

• The Living and Sentient Armor sets now provide 40% and 60% (configurable) damage reduction for hiding parasite players, respectively.

  • The DR is divided into each piece, so a piece of Living armor will provide 10% DR. You can mix them, if you like unoptimal DR or haven't made the whole set yet.
  • This DR only applies if you are hiding.
  • Damage cannot be reduced below 1.
  • This is mostly a nod to Nexus DR; In some cases, Nexus tiers will only take 40% damage.

• The Living and Sentient Armor sets now no longer add a vulnerability to any fire damage, instead of just inFire and onFire.

  • To be more specific, it no longer applies the SRP weakness to damage that would ignite an entity (like a fire aspect sword), instead only applying to onFire and inFire like other parasites (and parasite players at base) do.
  • This usually doesn't come up in non-pvp scenarios, especially considering the armor is unobtainable as of this patch.

• Added guidebook entries for Gravity and Yielding. Also touched up the Enhanced Mobs entry, giving it priority status among other improvements.

• Enhanced Mobs no longer apply Gravity passively. It is now done through Motes.

• Enhanced Mobs will, every 3 (configurable) seconds, send a Mote after their target. (Boss mobs will spawn 6, such as the Wither)

  • Motes are repurposed and improved Shulker Bullets which trade in their Levitation effect for Gravity, teleportation, and if Yielding is involved, a bit of percentage damage.
  • They are faster than normal Shulker Bullets, and for their first 10 seconds of existence, phase through walls and incoming attacks, indicated by blue particles.
    • If a Mote breaks on a surface and its target is not alive or is removed from the world, and its owner has a new viable target, a new Mote will emerge from the previous one to attack it.
  • Motes cannot be dodged via Phasing.
  • Motes normally do not deal damage, however there are very notable exceptions:
    • As mentioned earlier, the Yielding effect will proc its true damage effect whenever a Mote strikes a victim.
    • Motes spawned by bosses, such as the Wither, will deal the mob's Bane value as damage on hit. This can be critical damage as well.
  • By default, line of sight is not required to spawn a Mote, only being targeted (being discovered becomes the criterion if that system is enabled). A check can be enabled in the configs if you wish.
  • On impact, it will deal some projectile damage (which can crit) and then do one of the following:
    • If possible, apply Gravity (certain amount of blocks above the ground, etc.)
    • Otherwise, it will teleport the Enhanced Mob to the Mote's location. There is a configurable blacklist for preventing certain mobs from being able to teleport with Motes. Shulkers, for instance, cannot do this.
      • It also fails if the Enhanced Mob is not in loaded chunks.

• Enhanced Mobs cannot attack or be harmed within a half second after teleporting with a Mote.

  • This is completely ignored if the mob is within 2 blocks of their target before teleporting.

• Ante is now capped at 10.

• Recuperation now only heals every 1.5 seconds, rather than every half-second.

  • Its heal rate is effectively a third of what it once was.

• Scrying's bonus is now additive, adding the experience value of the entity killed per amplifier. This dramatically reduces the amount of extra points it provides.

  • I cannot understate how much of a drastic nerf this is. It goes from 125 points per XP point down to a measly 3 per XP for the same amplifier.
  • With the new value, a Zombie kill only gives around 5 extra evolution points/biomass with Scrying I.
  • This was a necessary change, however, as I feel this effect was a little overpowered.

• Brews now only apply effects for 5 seconds.

• Brew Base damage is now 6. Sticks, Flint, and Iron Ingots are no longer used as damage modifiers.

  • Instead, Altered Tendons are now used to reset the damage amount back to 6.

• Items will now show which Factory they can be produced with in their tooltip. They will cycle if multiple can provide it.

  • This can be disabled if you wish.

• The Explosion brew effect has been changed dramatically.

  • It is now brewed using a Bogle Charge, a special drop obtained from salvaging drops from a Bogle Factory.
  • It deals 3x the brew's base damage on a direct hit. This applies separately from the explosion itself.
  • The explosion now has power 5 + the amplifier of the brew.
  • The damage of the brew itself and the explosion should stack.
  • The cost has been increased to 20, from 10.
  • It is now incompatible with Harm, and vice versa. This effect is intended to be an upgrade.

• Wither Bane now requires a Wither Skeleton Skull to be brewed instead of a Nether Star.

• Wither Bane now only deals 50% of the brew's damage.

• Poison Bane now deals 80% of base damage.

• Wither Bane and Poison Bane are now incompatible.

• Apply Wither is now brewed with Soul Sand.

• New Brew Effect: Repeat - Costs 10 biomass - Brewed with a Nether Star.

  • Activates the effect directly preceding it in the Sac's effect list.

• New Brew Effect: Rally - Costs 20 biomass - Brewed with a Dendritus

  • Teleports the closest parasite within 20 blocks, but farther than 5 blocks, to the brew's impact location.

• Brew incompatibilities are also config driven too! Add a flag to the regular config string (also separated by the semicolon) and use that flag for both effects.

  • An example is provided for Explosion and Harm. Any number can be used, as long as both effects use the same number.

• Viral is no longer added to brews using a Reeker Fang. That item adds Apply Poison now.

  • It is now applied using Virulent Breath, a replacement for Dragon Breath that is obtained from Assimilated Ender Dragon clouds.

• Viral is now capped at II from Brew Sacs.

• Recuperation is now capped at II from Brew Sacs.

• Brews can apply a few new potion effects:

  • Longarms Armor Fragment - Resistance - Max amplifier III - 5 biomass
  • Shulker Shell - Levitation - 5 biomass

• Assimilated Ender Dragon clouds now give Virulent Breath rather than Dragon's breath.

  • Virulent Breath can also be traded in for Dragon's Breath using a Factory.
  • It also replaces the Reeker Fang as the reagent for the Viral effect in Brew Sacs.

• Values for the Reclamation Table have been nerfed.

  • They have received changes to better align with the actual XP values provided by the parasites the items are obtained from.
    • For instance, Beckon Membranes now only give a mere 5 XP each to better align with the Stage I Beckon, which only gives 16 XP by default.
  • Also, the Summoner Core can now be reclaimed. Not sure how I missed that one.

• The Macabre Pearl will no longer teleport parasites to places they will suffocate in, unless the offending blocks can be broken by the parasite.

  • This doesn't check for any MobGriefingEvent cancellation, so the pearl may still make a mistake under rare circumstances.
  • Phasing will remove this restriction.

• The Macabre Pearl can now be used to teleport all loyal parasites (that's the moniker for those you've used it on) to the user.

  • This will also clear their attack target.
  • This also does not have a collision check. be wary.

• Parasitic Flora (Beckon and Parasite Biome tendrils) are now transparent for parasite players.

  • This can be disabled in the config, of course. The transparent textures are located in this mod's resources, same , since I couldn't find a way to dynamically change them.

• The Access Transformer should also finally be in the jar now. I mean it was probably there before I never checked-

  • This is developer stuff, it doesn't affect gameplay.

• Scape and Spartan: Parasites's weaponry can now be repaired by Summoners, Adapted or otherwise.

• Point yield from the Phasing effect has been reduced. Points are now only generated for the outer edge of the parasite's hitbox, generally speaking.

  • Phasing is also much slower now. It only procs every 2 seconds rather than every half-second, to better emulate parasite block breaking.
  • As a consolation, the distance travelled each teleport has been increased to 3 blocks from 1.
    • Additionally, the maximum hardness multiplier has been increased to 3.5x, from 1.5x. This means that Preeminents can phase through Obsidian, provided I'm not bad at math.

• Beheading now only needs 3 damage (1.5 hearts) in order to proc now.
