⚡ Blitz: Alpha 0.1.0

🚀 The First Public Alpha Release! Welcome to the foundation of Blitz. This update establishes the core mechanics of packet-based electricity, mechanical basics, and grid safety.

✨ New Features & Content

⚙️ Primitive & Mechanical Age

• Added the mechanical production chain: Wooden Crank, Mortar, and Spring Winder.
• Implemented the core spring-tension system.

🌳 The Rubber Age

• Added Rubber Trees and Resinous Logs.
• Added the Tree Tap to extract Raw Rubber, which can be smelted into Cured Rubber.
• Introduced low, medium, and high Insulation Tiers for safe wiring.

🔌 Electrical Infrastructure

• Added Copper, Gold, Tin, Iron, and Glass Fiber cables.
• Added LV, MV, and HV Transformers for voltage management.
• Added the Fuse Box alongside Copper, Gold, Tin, and Iron Fuses for grid protection.

🔋 Power & Machines

• Added generation and processing blocks: Solar Panel and Macerator.
• Added the Universal Battery Station for energy storage and transfer.

⚖️ Gameplay & Balance Changes

• Packet-Based Energy: Blitz energy now travels in discrete packets, completely changing how power is managed.
• Raw Power is Dangerous: Feeding raw generated energy directly into low-voltage machines is now highly unstable.
• The "Solar Trap": The classic Solar Panel -> Copper Cable -> Macerator setup is no longer safe. An LV Transformer is now a strict requirement for early-game survival.
• Unified Math: Cable limits, fuse ratings, and machine inputs are now strictly tied to the same energy mathematics.
• 3-Stage Overload System: Grid failures now follow a clear escalation path: Warning ➡️ Damage ➡️ Explosion.
• Ghost Power Eliminated: Fixed a bug where phantom energy would accumulate in unpowered cables.
• Processing Tiers Established:
  • Mortar: Manual, slower, lower yield.
  • Macerator: Electric, powerful, higher yield.

📖 The Blitz Guidebook

• The Blitz Guidebook is now automatically granted upon first joining a world.
• Added a simple crafting recipe to recreate the book if lost.
• Fully Localized: 100% supported in both English and Turkish.
• New Chapters: Added comprehensive sections for Mining & Tools, Processing & Dusts, Grid Safety, and Ages & Progression.
• Visual Learning: Added 3D in-world visualizations showing Correct vs. Incorrect machine
