Create: Smog

0.5.0

Built-in model

• Pollution is now Soot, Fumes, Sulfur and Water, in a ground and an aloft layer. Sources have an emission profile (combustion, smelting, engine, clean, oil).
• Aloft pollution spreads further, drifts with a slowly changing wind and settles back down.
• Rain washes sulfur out of the air into the water. Contaminated water stalls crops.
• Acid rain where sulfur is high. Withers plants, turns farmland to dirt, weathers copper, leaves Acidic Runoff puddles, stings players without a helmet. Each part can be turned off.
• New integration.mode: POTR (default, falls back to BUILT_IN without PoTR), BUILT_IN, or the experimental POTR_AND_BUILT_IN. Only one model runs unless the experimental mode is picked. In POTR mode the built-in model is off and Smog's machines, gauges and the respirator work on PoTR's pollution. PoTR's classes are never loaded without it, and if the integration fails Smog falls back to the built-in model.

Exhaust

• The Flue is now the Smokestack. Short stacks keep exhaust local; tall stacks put up to 85% aloft. A covered stack is blocked. Stacks smoke from the top.
• Exhaust Duct: carries exhaust from a source to a remote smokestack. Leaks at the intake, with smoke, when broken. Routes are cached.
• Electrostatic Precipitator: kinetic filter for the exhaust line. Catches soot as Soot and Industrial Dust; with water it also washes out sulfur as Acidic Runoff.
• Oily exhaust condenses as Waste Oil in the stack base.

Waste fluids

• Industrial Wastewater, Clarified Water, Acidic Runoff, Waste Oil, Industrial Sludge, Refined Oil, all with buckets and treatment recipes.
• Wet Air Scrubbers now return their water as Industrial Wastewater. Washing crushed ores and coking charcoal produce waste too.
• Sludge Cake and Industrial Dust as the solid end of the loop.
• Oil Burner: a Create heater for basins and boilers. Dirty on Waste Oil, clean on Refined Oil and common c: fuels.

Machines

• Smog Sensor: redstone 0 to 15 for air, soot, sulfur or ground water. Smoothed, no flicker.
• Aerometer shows soot and sulfur, and warns under acid rain.

Fixes

• 5x5 panels now reach the sky. Placement used the clicked face for the axis, so a wall built by hand often had mismatched members and never formed. Scrubbers now take the axis of the panel they are placed against. Goggles show progress towards 25 and any mismatched blocks. A full panel works a 5x5 area of chunks and cleans the aloft layer, with a visible beam.
• Blaze Burners never polluted. They now pollute lightly, scaled by heat.
• Plant damage and crop stalling never happened, because the surface check hit leaves first.
• coal_from_soot ignored its heat requirement.

Upgrading

Worlds and configs from 0.4 load as they are. Old chunk values are split into the new kinds. integration.deferToPollutionOfTheRealms is replaced by integration.mode; its default matches the old default. If you had set it to false, set mode yourself. The flue section is now smokestack.
