Origins + Create: Automaton

Base Passives

• Heavy Machinery
  • Previously you could walk up 1 block, but the moment the elevation was even a pixel higher, you couldn't walk up the block anymore. You can now walk up a little higher than 1 block
  • Step height changed from 1 -> 1.2

Copper Age

• Fluid Tank
  • Fixed so you can no longer create cobblestone while overstressed
  • Fixed so you can no longer pour liquids while overstressed
  • Reduced cooldown between cobblestone generation from 5 ticks -> 2 ticks
  • You can now drink water/lava buckets even while at full fluid capacity. This will not add any fluids to the tanks.

Brass Age

• Blaze Burner
  • Added a 5 tick cooldown between each stack smelted

Extra Doodads

• Super Glue
  • You can now shift to stay stuck to a wall
• Clutch
  • The clutch sounded quite OP during development, but in play testing it is pretty lackluster, especially if you want to play in hardcore. On top of that, you would normally overstress before you ever die. The clutch has been slightly reworked to make it a little more powerful
  • The clutch now has a 45 minute cooldown, but still regenerates upon death
  • If you overstress, you will use your clutch. The clutch will set your stress to 400, and take away 10 hunger shanks and 20 saturation

Future Plans

I have personally enjoyed making this origin, and don't plan to stop anytime soon. So, I will give a small hint for the next update (which will be 1.1.0), there will be a lot of ups and downs

Base Passives

• Stress-o-Meter
  • The way constant-stress is calculated for this Origin has been reworked as to allow for easier switching between abilities/powers (especially on Forge)
  • This change was made to assist people who modify this origin for personal use. I will not be adding the ability to switch between abilities to this Origin.
  • Constant-stress will now be calculated every tick for each person playing this Origin
  • 4 new tags have been added to help with this change, the tags are as follows: hasDisplay, hasReach, hasHelmet, hasTank.

Brass Age

• Potato Cannon
  • A bug with the potato cannon has been causing the game to crash or enter safe mode when loaded with Forge. I did not know about the bug until a few hours ago as I only test this origin on the Fabric loader. I am deeply sorry for the people who wanted to play my Origin on forge.
  • Fixed the game crashing or entering safe mode when loading the custom_projectile power type from Apugli

/!\ THIS UPDATE WILL REQUIRE YOU TO UPDATE YOUR RESOURCE PACK FOLDER ASWELL /!\

Base Passives

• New Machine Like hidden passive
  • This passive aims to make the player feel less "organic" and more mechanical
  • Insomnia is disabled for the user, meaning phantoms will never spawn for you. You can still sleep to skip the night
  • Natural regeneration is disables as it felt too "organic" as machines cannot heal like people can. This means that huner and saturation no longer heals you

    • Regeneration
    • Instant Health
    • Wither
    • Poison
    • Health Boost
    • Hunger
    • Saturation
• New Fuel hidden passive
  • You can now eat coal and charcoal as food
    • Gives 6 hunger shanks and 3.6 saturation
  • You can still eat regular food
• New Self Repair passive
  • This gives a way for the user to "repair" themselves as natural regeneration is disabled. This passive was heavily inspired by Bastion from Overwatch
  • Stand still for 5 seconds to activate Self Repair. While active, a yellow ring will be shown around you while you repair yourself
  • The speed at which you are repaired heavily depends on your hunger. The following shows the rate of repair depending on the amount of hunger shanks you have
