Better Than Wolves

September 10, 2012

• Added Hardcore Grinding. This removes the vanilla recipes for bone meal, sugar, bread and cake, requiring the player to use the Mill Stone to grind each of these (wheat may be ground into Flour, then baked into bread or crafted into cake). Thanks to Sarudak for originally proposing this idea, and for going so far as to create a BTW add-on mod that convinced me of what a great idea it is :)
• Added Rotted Arrows as a new item.
• Added ability to fill water bottles from non-source water blocks, as this is rather useful in Hardcore Bucket mode.
• Added some of the newer mod blocks to the creative inventory.
• Added internal functionality for removing vanilla crafting recipes, as this was needed for Hardcore Grinding, and should prove useful for add-on mods.
• Added recipe for breaking down arrows in a stoked Stewing Pot. It's not lossless though.
• Changed (reduced) the amount of Bone Meal required to make Kibble, to help balance its overall usage in relation to fertilizing crops.
• Changed the amount that villagers buy books and paper for, as their relative value didn't make a whole lot of sense given that it was more productive to sell unfinished vs. finished and more resource intensive goods. This effectively decreases the value of paper slightly, while increasing the value of books significantly.
• Changed the Column recipe to be two vertical strips of stone in the crafting grid instead of 1, and to produce twice as much. This is because it fits the recipe for the Pedestal much better, and just looks better overall.
• Changed the Arcane Scroll drop types on pigmen and magma cubes to adjust for the removal of the blaze drop below.
• Fixed problem with weird artifact water being left behind when placing a water bucket with Hardcore Buckets enabled.
• Fixed problem with buckets not showing up in the creative inventory with Hardcore Buckets enabled.
• Fixed problem with the Block Dispenser being able to pickup end portals.
• Fixed problem with villagers selling Hemp and writable books in SMP, rather than buying them.
• Fixed problem where librarian villagers were buying Hemp instead of Priests. This simply would not do.
• Fixed red particles when living entities come into contact with a powered Saw.
• Fixed Placenta! Woot! :)
• Removed the Arcane Scroll drop from blazes, as the only way to effectively farm them is through spawners.
