Starlance

Thrusters

• Thrusters now connect when directly adjacent, and can be controlled as one
• They can now set entities on fire, blocks on fire, push entities, evaporate water
• They can now consume fuel (can be set in config). Default is still no fuel for now

New blocks

• Added "Rocket Assembler", which provides a better way of assembling multiple block ships. Benefits include:
  • Can be used in space
  • Can assemble active create contraptions
  • Can be automated
• Added Gyro, which can rotate your ship when powered with redstone
• Added vent block, which simply prevents thrusters from setting fire past it

Bug fixes:

• Fixed Cosmic Horizons crashing on rclick when a custom datapack is enabled
• Fixed thruster particles sometimes persisting after thruster destroyed (maybe)
• Fixed thruster force when at small scales
• Fixed log spam about "Found cosmos dimension, changing world height"

Misc:

• Config option to disable chunk saving in space. Increases performance, but forces builds to be ships in space.
• Config option to place the "platform" in space from a nodule as a ship instead of blocks
• Probably some other stuff I don't remember

Fixed planet collision not working if another ship is unloaded.

Added new language files:

• French (France)
• German
• Hebrew
• Hindi
• Indonesian
• Italian
• Japanese
• Korean
• Polski (Polska)
• Russian (Russia)
• Spanish (Mexico)

Thanks to community contributors!

Bug fixes:

• Default thruster strength is back to 1.2.0's values

Features:

• CBC projectiles have zero G in space dimensions (no planet-dependent gravity yet though)

Still buggy:

• Kontraption helm crashes
• Multiplayer (?)

Bug fixes:

• Thrusters no longer crash the physics stage sometimes
• Thrusters now work better, even if your ship is at top speed
• Players are now placed back into seats during transfer
• Physics bearings are now transported properly when going to space! (not VMod yet though)
• VS ships are properly aligned to coordinates when spawning in space (no longer 0.5 blocks offset)

Features:

• Computer Craft support! Thrusters can now be used as peripherals (wiki coming soon-ish)
• Patchouli support! Some info on thrusters and such can now be accessed if patchouli is installed
• Magnet boots now work on mobs (though I haven't really tested yet)

Still buggy:

• Kontraption helm crashes
• Multiplayer (?)

'Fixes, fixes, fixes'

Bug fixes:

• Nodules are no longer invisible on VS ships
• Magnet boots no longer pull you in spectator or flying in creative
• Works with Cosmic Horizons 0.0.7.3 (confirmed)

Features:

• VS ships can now land at landing pads!
• Optional Create compat in the form of ponders!
• Upped the default thruster strength AGAIN

Still buggy:

• Kontraption helm crashes
• Multiplayer
• Multiple-ships

• Added magnet boots
• Added warning / cancel of multi-block assemblies in space
• Removed Jade compat temporarily (had to revert a bunch of in-dev changes including Jade because of issues that have yet to be tracked down, it'll probably be back next version)

Bug fixes:

• Fixed Air Thruster Hitbox.

Additions:

• Added Jade compatability.

Still buggy:

• Multi-block assemblies in space do bad stuff
• Kontraption helm crashes
• Multiplayer

Bug fixes:

• Create contraptions can now teleport with ship.

Still buggy:

• Multi-block assemblies in space do bad stuff
• Kontraption helm crashes
• Sub-ships (physics bearings, magnetted ships, etc) don't come through teleport
• Multiplayer

Fixed a major crash on startup (not sure why it wasn't always on startup, but oh well)

Mostly bug fixes!

Features:

• Wrench is more clear about modes
• Wrench is now translatable
• Powerful thruster

Bug fixes:

• ALL thrusters now have configurable strength
• Thrusters can now slow you down, even at speed limit
• Air thruster now saves its mode on world reload (oops)
• Kontraption helm MAY no longer crash (have not tested...)
• Fixed planet entry sometimes crashing (StringIndexError)
• Fixed sometimes zero G player even after entering planet

Still active bugs:

• Ships assembled from multiple blocks in space get deleted on entering, or refuse to enter, planets
• Create contraptions and other shipyard entities (things like item frames, paintings) disappear on dimension change
• Multiplayer (Ik, ik, I'll get to it eventually I promise)

• Bugfix: Crash on placing kinetic blocks from Create.

New features:

• Item to change thruster modes is now a wrench, making it more obvious
• Thrusters now have a (configurable) speed limit, to prevent your ships from going too fast to stop!
• Starlance now crashes with a helpful message when wrong VS is used (thanks mods.toml)

Bug fixes:

• Thrusters now save their mode on reloading a world
• WORKS ON OLD VS!!! No longer is a special version needed, latest from modrinth should work!

Known bugs:

• Player can still get left behind on going to space
• Multiplayer still broken
• Thrusters are unable to slow you down if you are at max speed (use drag inducers instead)

First release!

Current bugs:

• Multiplayer collision is buggy. It seems only one player gets transported, and others may get glitched out (usually if seated). However multiple ships may still work?
• When transitioning between planet/space, player may be left behind by ship to be stranded in space or fall down to planet. More likely at high speeds
• Thrusters lose their mode on world reload
• Drag inducer modes do nothing
• Player can't rotate upside down with the ship in space, unless seated
