We are leaving alpha at last!

This update is potentially incompatible with old worlds or may cause a few issues when updating. "Optional" dependencies means this mod has cross-mod interactions and are not required for normal gameplay.

Reading these (x/y/z) statements are the default config values that are different across the new preset systems. X = Classic, Y = Death World, and Z = Dark Forest.

• Split Radiogenics Config into 4 categories:
  • Wyrms
  • Creeped
  • Follies
  • Global (Affects Wyrms, Creeped, and Follies alike)
• New config options for Radiogenics:
  • Wyrms:
    • Drop pods cause block damage (false/true/true)
  • Creeped:
    • Immune to Explosions (false/true/true)
    • Immune to Cacti (false/false/false)
    • Immune to Falling (false/false/true)
  • Global:
    • Mob Easter Eggs (true/true/true)
• Wyrms in classic mode are now only immune to falling
• Creeped mobs made into a unified class (That is technical speak for "they now have their own properties")

• Unified more drop pod code for consistency
• Visitor-originating Callous Landing Pods now spawn rovers and soldiers instead of probers

• Removed some unused code
• Visitor no longer gets pushed by its own drop pods
• Visitor drops pods further away from each other
• Improved code for wyrms exploding on death while on fire
  • This should reduce the amount of code in the mod
  • Added internal (invisible) potency stat.
  • Wyrms with 0 potency will not violently explode at death, but provide no evolution points upon death as well.
  • Wyrms, regardless of the configuration rules, will still contribute evolution points on death, so long as they have potency.
• New "potency" stat in wyrms
  • Determines if the mob explodes on death via fire
  • Also determines if the entity has (and how much) evolution points to contribute upon death.
    • If potency is at least 20 or more, every 20 points and after is +1 evolution point added.
  • Potency stats of wyrms:
    • Visitor: 100 (5 evo points on death)
    • Creepwyrm: 45 (2 evo points on death)
    • Soldier: 15

• Creepwyrms can no longer be pushed around and actually stay stationary on blocks.
• New debug mode messages related to evolution points being added and natural decay of evolution points. (Lever 5 debug mode or above needed)

• Updated Strykeling animations

  • Fixed wyrm stats (health, armor, damage, etc.) only being saved to memory (RAM)
  • Before, just follies would do this.
  • Creeped also remember their stats
• Improved animation functions built upon Geckolib
  • Wyrms now use an Animation Array to define and pick out animations, therefore reducing the amount of work needed to define new animations

  • Classic difficulty: Will summon only biters

  • Banishment
  • Smite

  • Wyrms will be less forgiving when swarmed/interrupted
    • Wyrms gain positive potion effects
    • They will knock back the original target in order to clear the way to the new target
    • Certain wyrms can not enrage:
      • Wyrmlings

      • All drop pods
      • All Creeped

Thanks to Carver for reporting some odd bugs involving the invasion mechanic

Welcome to the Hostile Skies update!

This update features new a flying wyrm: The Warrior. Fully capable of dodging player movements and projectiles, the Warrior presents a new threat for those living in the skies, and they are known to come down onto land to terrorize the local fauna and mobs as well. Along with Warriors, Probers have been completed reworked and are unique with how they progress the invasion. Thankfully, it is now easier to identify probers with a new accessibility change: Probers now have unique idle sounds and subtitles (available in Vanilla Minecraft's settings)

Along with this update is a full-blown configuration file change. You will need to re-do your files to carry your edits over, but the new system is more organized and is part of SynapseLib itself. No config reset needed, the files are now located in /config/WyrmsOfNyrus/

I want to thank everyone for following and supporting the mod ever since it's first conception 6 months ago. So much has changed and improved, and with the foundations laid down in front of us, we'll be seeing a faster update schedule.

Changes:

• Evolution system expansion (up to 2000 points are effective now)
• New Prober sounds
• Probers got a full remodel, retexture, and reanimation
• The bodies of Probers will now rotate and roll based on their direction of movement.
• Warriors fully implemented; they spawn from Wyrmlings at a rare chance.
• Updated SynapseLib to v0.3
• Complete configuration overhaul (no config reset needed)
• Most wyrms can now have their stats fine-tuned in configurations
• Tainted Warrior added (needs HBM's NTM to appear)
• New command for modpack devs (PLEASE use /won_invasion startInvasion instead of forceVisit because forceVisit is the VISITOR event that depends on a player directly typing the command!)
• Probers now disappear after ~2 minutes
• Probers only add points if they vanish naturally after killing and hitting entities
• AI improvements
• New Warrior animations

REQUIRES A CONFIGURATION FILE RESET FOR BEST STABILITY! This update includes some vital bug & lag fixes that were found on the previous stable version.

CHANGES & ADDITIONS:

• Creeped Blocks
• Creepwyrms and Hive Creep blocks will now create Creeped variants of blocks. Creeped blocks will eventually turn into true hive creep blocks.
• Warriors (not normally obtainable or encounterable yet until AI is fixed)
• Invasion stage point thresholds are now user-definable through configs, no more multiplier.
• New Creepwyrm model & animations
• Synapse Library updated
• New sounds for wyrmlings
• Maximum invasion event drop distance is now user-definable via configs.

FIXES:

• Workaround to onKillEntity() requires the attacker to hit multiple times (#9)
• Fix to Regular Creepwyrms somehow create active creepstone blocks (#10)
• Code optimizations all around

As usual... ! RESET YOUR CONFIGURATION FILES FOR THE LEAST AMOUNT OF USER-CAUSED BUGS !

What's new:

• Evolution system (Can be disabled)

• Evo: Checks your modlist with mods known to pose some threat or unique opportunities to the wyrms

• Evo: Evo points increase with each wyrm killed by ANYTHING, evo points decay if they have no need to evolve.

• Evo: Evo system can "unlock" wyrms or special (exclusive) variants

• Evo variants: Infectoid Soldier, Uranium Rover

• Evo: Evo system can upgrade wyrms independently from the invasion system.

• Probers have been overhauled (Custom death messages included!)

• Probers now break weak glass blocks

• Probers now deal custom damage types if probing is enabled

• Myrmur updates (AI + stat changes)

• Wyrm models now capable of actually looking at targets

• Rovers are now always hostile.

• Expanded invasion system event pulls.

• NEW CONFIG OPTIONS!

Fixes:

• Invasion wouldn't start naturally (It now does, you don't need the command anymore.)
• Optimized creep spread to ticklag way less when in large quantities.

Potential issues that need further testing:

• Disabling Creepwyrms through the "Disable Hive Creep" option may cause issue. Do at your own risk for the moment!

Initial release to Modrinth.

What's new (compared to the ETB):

• Explosion sounds, both distant and close
• Creepwyrms have knockback resistance
• Hive creep turns inactive sooner
• ES language fixes
• Invasion should start sooner. If this is too late for you, just use /won_invasion forceVisit for the meantime.
