Better Than Wolves

Version 4.B0000001

Mar 8, 2019

• Added Hardcore Trim. This means that Shears are now required in order to harvest the top of Hemp plants, without also killing the bottom. Non-player harvesting (Pistons, Block Dispenser, etc.) isn't affected by this, so as to not interfere with existing builds.
• Added Straw as a new item. It is harvested from the bottom block of mature Wheat, and may be fed to cows and sheep.
• Added the ability for playas to enchant hoes.
• Changed Hemp to only drop seeds when the top of the plant is harvested, not the bottom. The texture has also been changed to reflect this.
• Changed Endermen to not be able to teleport onto block types that mobs can't spawn on (eg. wood). Light levels still do not affect this however.
• Changed the Iron, Gold, and Diamond Hoe recipes to consist of 3 Shafts in a vertical line, with a single ingot to the top/side, instead of the two ingots it previously required, to better balance it relative to other tools. The Refined Hoe recipe remains unchanged.
• Changed the Brick Oven to allow the player to add any size fuel (logs, etc.) when it is in the last visible stage of burning down (the non-whole-log texture) to make it a little more user friendly.
• Changed a number of mobs and animals to set fire to other entities that they attack while on fire, similar to how zombies worked previously.
• Changed a few things about how entities are unloaded to hopefully reduce the occurrences of players becoming invisible to each other.
• Changed (reduced) the time it takes to weave Wicker as it was rather excessive when making Hampers.
• Changed (refactored) how tool enchantability works internally to clean up the related code a bit.
• Fixed burning wolves and players dropping cooked instead of burned meat.
• Fixed a problem where Reeds could no longer be placed on blocks diagonal to water.
• Removed the recipe for Grass Planters as they opened up a number of exploits with regards to feeding animals, and they no longer really had an intended purpose within the mod. Such Planters already within your world are unaffected by this change, but new ones may no longer be created.
• Added new Wet Brick and Uncooked Nether Brick items as the interaction between the clay ball items being applicable as both mortar and placeable brick blocks was creating unnecessary interface confusion. They're created with a single item of the corresponding type in the crafting grid.
• Changed the various forms of mortar (Clay, Slime, and Nether Sludge) so that it can be applied to blocks regardless of whether you're sneaking or not. Hence the need for the above new items.
• Changed the color of Nether Sludge to help visually differentiate it from Nether Brick.
• Changed Buckets to no longer place as blocks for similar reasons. I need to rework that system before proceeding further as it was way too prone to unintended consequences like accidentally placing buckets in lava while sneaking. Until then, they may still be placed with Block Dispensers if you really feel the need to play with their block form.
• Fixed a duplication exploit with Wicker Slabs.
• Fixed an issue where mobs could spawn on ladders.
