Better Than Wolves

November 30, 2012

IMPORTANT: This version requires a CLEAN install of BTW to function properly. This means that you need to redownload Minecraft (delete your bin directory and run the game without the mod installed), then install 4.38 to it. Just copying over the old install will likely result in bugs and potential crashes. My apologies for this as I normally try to make such changes when vanilla updates to prevent these kinds of problems, but this one slipped through the cracks.

• Added Hardcore Melons.
• Added nether brick Siding, Moulding, Corners, Pedestals, Columns, and Tables.
• Added internal functionality to determine when a block has a center "hard point" to a particular facing to determine if things like torches, Lightning Rods, and Stakes can "stick" to them. This allows for a number of blocks to attach to others that previously weren't possible, and may be useful for add-on authors in establishing similar functionality with their blocks. This also marks the triumphant return of torches sticking to the sides of Panels ;)
• Added the ability to melt down Lightning Rods in the Crucible.
• Changed the order in which the Cauldron processes ingredients so that gunpowder is created before string is converted into wool. This allows for the dumping in of the raw materials required to make Fuses, without your string being turned into wool.
• Changed some code internally to eliminate base classes that were getting modified in the releases of the mod that I wasn't actually modifying. This is what necessitates the reinstall mentioned above.
• Changed Wind Mills & Water Wheels so that they can not be placed when overlapping with another entity, including the player.
• Changed the way vertical Wind Mills are placed to accommodate the above change, and to make their placement more intuitive. They are now placed so that their vertical position starts (either top or bottom) at the Axle you click on. In other words, if you're looking upwards, it will place the Wind Mill going up from the Axle you click on, if you're looking down, then going downwards from it.
• Fixed "pick block" functionality (middle mouse button) to work on a bunch of mod blocks.
• Fixed some Corners not placing properly in SMP.
• Fixed Dynamite not firing out of vanilla dispensers in SMP.
• Fixed Splash Potions not firing out of vanilla dispensers in SMP.
• Fixed Buckets not dispensing properly out of vanilla dispensers in SMP, with Hardcore Buckets disabled.
• Fixed problem with being able to place Urns, Grates, Wicker, and Slats while the player or another entity was in the space the block was to occupy.
