Create Big Cannons 5.5.0, with many bug fixes and QoL changes, as well as an aesthetic overhaul to many of the visual and sound effects. Comes with version formatting change, but gameplay changes are otherwise not major.

Added durability and fuze position tooltip to Impact Fuze and Delayed Impact Fuze
Added config to switch between cannon trail styles
Added cannon trail particle
- By default appears the same as campfire smoke
- Particle texture definition can be changed
Added new style for autocannon plumes (createbigcannons:autocannon_plume) and drop mortar plumes (createbigcannons:drop_mortar_plume) separate from big cannon plume (createbigcannons:big_cannon_plume)
- Added separate clientside visibility config options for these plumes
Added Drop Mortar Shell and Smoke Shell to "Fuzing Munitions" ponder

Added filled Big Cartridge to creative search tab
Added separate config for screen shake intensity
Added ability to add Tracer Tips to big cannon projectiles
- Added config to make all big cannon projectiles have tracers regardless if they have tracers, where applicable
- Solid Shot and AP Shot now have block entities to allow tracer placement. Blocks missing them may need to be replaced.
Added screen shake config options
- Screen shake intensity (client)
- Screen shake restitution (client)
- Screen shake decay (client)
- Screen shake range (server)
- Screen shake power (server)
- Screen shake propagation speed (server)
- The faster it is, the less delay there is for players at a distance
Added cannon mount angle goggle display config options
- Added config for angle precision; ranges from 0 to 4 digits
- Added config for yaw display range; can either be -180 to +180 degrees or 0 to +360 degrees, defaults to the latter

Added smoke trails to autocannon projectiles
- Has config for type of trail: Long, Short, and No Trail
Added "ignores_invulnerability" field to projectiles, ignoring projectile invulnerability
- The old "ignores_entity_armor" field now only affects if entity armor is bypassed, not invulnerability
- By default, all CBC projectiles ignore invulnerability, but differ in if they bypass armor
Added custom fluid-based explosion effects to Fluid Shell
- Added registry for fluid shell explosion sound and visual effects based on fluid
- If no effect is registered, defaults to regular explosion and sound effect
Added Pinch of Gunpowder for cheaper machine gun rounds, made in the Crafting Table

- Supported fluids: water, lava, honey, chocolate, all Create Big Cannons molten metals
- Default effect on contact with solid blocks creates particles
- Effect visibility can be configured in the client config menu
Added resource pack system for effect scale by entity type (assets/projectile_hit_effects)

Added fallback graphics for certain objects affected by Iris/Oculus shaders
- Cannon smoke falls back to default textures
- Splinters, glass shards, and leaves use regular block particles
- Emissive textures are not supported by the mod, please make your own resource pack if you want that.
- [Integration] Added integration with FramedBlocks content added in 1.19.2 and 1.20.1

Removed:

Removed legacy cannon plume appearance client config, can now only turn plumes on or off in clientside config
Removed single-projectile shrapnel, grapeshot, and fluid blob entities

Changed:

Updated Ritchie's Projectile Library dependency to 2.0.0
- Improved chunkloading performance
- Replaced PreciseProjectile interface with tag #ritchiesprojectilelib:precise_motion
- Changed screen shake to use Ritchies Projectile Library code rather than Create Big Cannons code
Separated smoke shell smoke particle (createbigcannons:smoke_shell_smoke) from cannon smoke particle (createbigcannons:cannon_smoke)
- Both still use the same textures and particle definition by default
Changed how big cannon plumes look
Changed description of some ponder categories
Rework cannon plume to use better particles
Changed default cannon mount angle goggle display precision from 1 to 2 digits
Improved cannon heating ponder information to clarify layering
Improved sound effects of cannon firing
Tweaked speed and entity damage attributes of Drop Mortar Shell
Tweaked shrapnel spread and shrapnel damage values of Shrapnel Shell
Tweaked grapeshot spread and grapeshot damage values of Bag of Grapeshot
Changed all shrapnel projectiles to a single projectile burst entity to reduce entity count
- Includes: Shrapnel Shell, Bag of Grapeshot, Fluid Shell, and Flak Autocannon Round
- Harder to create chunkbans with new system
- [Addons, integration] Fluid Blob effects registry has been changed to work with Fluid Blob bursts rather than single Fluid Blobs. This will break already existing integration.
Separated flak burst from shrapnel burst
Changed screen shake delay to be on client
[Addons, integration] Added ability to register multiple fluid blob effect handlers for a single fluid type
Refactor projectile properties to be less inheritance-based (BREAKING)
- New approach involves projectile-specific serializers that projectiles must reference instead of getting wildcard
- This will break existing serializers and retrieval of properties
- Some config files will be broken
- All fields that are either "explosion_power" or "explosive_power" are now "explosive_power"
Rework drag kinematics to ease factoring in dimensional density
- All projectiles are affected
- Previously, the drag equation was { vel' = vel * drag * dimensional density }
- The drag equation is now { vel' = vel - vel * vel * drag * dimensional density }
- Changed default drag values of big cannon and autocannon projectiles to 0.001 by default
- Changed default drag values of projectile burst sub-projectiles to 0 by default
Tweaked Mortar Stone to be able to handle equivalent of 3 Powder Charges, up from 1 Powder Charge
Improved in-world effects of fluid blob fluids
- Added ability for fluid blob to affect entities in-flight
- Water-filled Fluid Blob harms entities sensitive to water and douses entities
- Lava-filled fluid blob now lights certain blocks, opposite to water's effects
- Potion-filled Fluid Blob applies its effect to entities while in flight
Improved quick firing breech opening effects
- Add more particles on opening and give them a bit of velocity
- Add a short pickup delay for ejected items, can be configured on server
- Can configure between item going directly into inventory and dropping item, default latter
Improved smoke shell detonation sound
Made shrapnel, grapeshot, and flak impact effect louder and added more particles
Improved explosion effect for Mortar Stone
- Added sound, particles, and screen shake
Autocannon rounds are now visually larger than machine gun rounds in flight
x2 Big Cartridge Sheets (Brass only)
+2 Autocannon Cartridge sheets
Reduced Gunpowder cost of Filled Autocannon Cartridge from 3 to 1
Rework penetration and bouncing (BREAKING)
- Separate hardness and toughness (default: hardness == 1, toughness == blast resistance)
- JSONs must be rewritten
- Most projectiles now have additional config fields "penetration", "toughness", and "deflection"
- Projectiles now shatter if block hardness - projectile penetration > projectile toughness, prevents some fuzes from detonating
- Renamed Resistance Inspection Tool to Block Armor Inspection Tool
- Block Armor Inspection Tool now displays info in a more elegant form similar to goggles
- Block Armor Inspection Tool also displays information on hovered blocks in the inventory
Improved terminal projectile trajectory appearance on clientside
Improved blast propagation for big cannon blast to take current player position into account
Rebalanced projectiles
Rebalanced some block armor values
Rebalanced autocannons to be more accurate
Rebalanced big cannon materials to be more accurate with shorter barrels for stronger materials
- Around 25% reduction in barrel size for steel (12 -> 9 for max charge)
- Almost 50% reduction in barrel size for nethersteel (24 -> 14 for max charge)

[1.20.1] Fixed issue with drill boring scrap loot in 1.20.1

"Now, occasionally you're going to get stuck. It's nothing to get upset about. Don't go hurling your controller at the cat, because it might throw something back, and it'll only escalate, and then, well…" - Stephen Fry, LittleBigPlanet (2008)
