Changelog

[3.4.7]

Changes

• Added the ballastRighting server option to set how hard ballast tanks pull a submarine back upright, 0 turns it off (#137)

Bug Fixes

• Fixed servers crashing with "Body has been removed" when a ship with sails or a rudder was removed
• Fixed lag spikes each time a Vista camera feed refreshed near a submarine with an oxygenated hull (#138)
• Fixed 2x2 and 3x3 Submarine Propellers launching the submarine when they left the water
• Fixed the Boat Engine pushing from above its propeller and still pushing with its propeller out of the water
• Fixed the Oar of Boat moving a ship while standing on a block next to it instead of on board
• Fixed the underwater sun shafts and caustics of the Vortex Engine jumping to another place when swimming under a block
• Fixed sun shafts and caustics showing under water that the sky does not reach, such as below a bedrock ceiling or very deep down
• Fixed sun shafts, caustics and plankton showing on the land around you while swimming in a waterfall
• Fixed a sail made taller after being rigged no longer lowering all the way when its halyard runs to a winch on another part of the ship
• Fixed the frame rate dropping sharply with many single-block sub-levels loaded
• Fixed sails tilting the ship towards the wind: the wind now only pushes the ship forward (#139)
• Fixed sailing ships slowly turning to one side with the rudder straight

[3.4.6]

Changes

• Added Light Resolution to the Vortex Engine video settings (lightResolution): half and quarter resolution are much lighter on the graphics card and keep the edges of blocks sharp
• In the Pixel light style, distant glowing blocks are merged into fewer lights
• Every ship, boat and other Sable sub-level now casts shadows and tints the coloured light of the Vortex Engine, not only the submarine you are in
• Added Reflections to the Vortex Engine video settings (reflections, off by default): water, glass and other see-through blocks reflect the scene and the sky
• The shadows of the Vortex Engine now follow the shape of blocks: slabs, stairs, doors and trapdoors cast a matching shadow, and thin blocks like shafts, fences or carpets no longer cast the shadow of a full cube
• Players and mobs now cast shadows in the coloured light of the Vortex Engine
• The Vortex Engine switch now takes effect after a restart, and turning it off removes the engine from the game entirely instead of only hiding what it draws
• Added Temporal Accumulation to the Vortex Engine video settings (temporalAccumulation, off by default): the light is blended over several frames, smoothing its grain and its edges at half or quarter resolution
• The Vortex Engine video settings now fit on one page with the most useful settings, named like the settings of a shader pack (Shadows, Bloom, Volumetric Light, Light Shafts); every other setting is behind the Advanced Settings button
• Create Deep Seas and Create High Seas now treat the salt, river and spring water of TerraFirmaCraft as water, through the new create_submarine:water fluid tag that other mods can add to (#129)

Bug Fixes

• Fixed the buttons of the photosensitivity warning being out of reach in a small window or with a large GUI scale; a long message now scrolls with the mouse wheel
• Fixed black shadows flickering on kelp, lianas and other thin blocks lit by the Vortex Engine
• Fixed boats floating in singleplayer but barely floating, sinking or capsizing on servers with selfRighting having no effect, and their dry holds counting as flooded on servers, so players drowned and items floated inside: every other dimension of the server wiped the holds of the boats each tick (#131)
• Fixed sails still pushing the ship when lowered, which also made anchored ships dip their bow into the water
• Fixed a thick fog covering the world with Complementary, and the sea fog showing outside of ships with Iris Flywheel Compat or Iris Veil Compat (#128, #130, thanks to SpacEagle17)
• Fixed death messages showing a translation key when a diver was crushed, gave in to the pressure or suffocated while fleeing a mob (#127)

Removed

• Removed the Volumes, Vanilla and Hybrid light styles of the Vortex Engine; Flood and Pixel remain and get every feature of the engine. A config set to a removed style falls back to Flood
