• Also added is the extensive CraftTweaker API to allow authors to create their own custom upgrades.
• Mechanical upgrades can listen to all machine events to allow authors to write upgrades with more complex mechanics.
• Hot reload support.

Bug Fixes

  • StatedMachineComponentBlock
    • This block changes as the state of the machine controller changes
    • There are two states: IDLE, WORKING
    • Register custom blocks via the CraftTweaker API

• (Important) Rewrite part of MMCE's event system to accommodate both Forge's event system and CraftTweaker's event system.
  • The following events have been changed:
    • RecipePreTickEvent has been merged into RecipeTickEvent
    • FactoryRecipePreTickEvent has been merged into FactoryRecipeTickEvent
  • The following external methods have been changed for CraftTweaker:
    • RecipePrimer.addTickHandler() -> RecipePrimer.addPostTickHandler()
    • RecipePrimer.addFactoryTickHandler() -> RecipePrimer.addFactoryPostTickHandler()
    • MMEvents.onMachineTick() -> MMEvents.onMachinePostTick()
  • New methods:
    • MMEvents.onMachinePreTick()
• Optimize the performance overhead of ItemOutputBus (#14 by jchung01).
• Fix the occasional possible runtime jamming issue.
• Fix a certain degree of selective-tileentity-update that caused some blocks to not update in time.
• Rewrite TileMachineController to optimize performance and fix most of the known bugs.
• ParallelController now has a minimum value of 0 instead of 1.

• Optimized execution speed of asynchronous tasks (effect up to 75%).
• Optimized average time consumption calculation algorithm.
• Redirection of ItemOutputBus is no longer immediate.
• New CraftTweaker Recipe Events:
  • FactoryRecipeFailureEvent
  • RecipeFailureEvent

Features:

• Increase the time interval for the mechanical controller to update the redstone signal (may have side effects).
• Add performance consumption display for controllers (Experimental).
• After some consideration, "Daemon Thread" is more appropriately renamed "Core Thread".
• Significantly optimize the performance overhead of asynchronous task submission.
• Added new recipe adapter.
  • TConstruct's Alloy Recipe and Melting Recipe (provides preset temperature checks).
  • Melter for NuclearCraft Overhauled.
• All machinery and machine recipes moved to postInit loading to accommodate registration of some special mods.
• Factory Controller now works correctly in World Structure Preview.

Fixes:

• Fix issue where addBlock() method of BlockArrayBuilder was not getting meta values from IItemStack correctly.
• Fix issue where FluidPerTickOutput was not working correctly.
• Fix machine upgrade checks for some special block not working correctly.
• Fix the parallelization of factories not working correctly.
• Fix an issue where the client cannot reload within the server.

Major Experimental updates: Factory System

• The Factory System is an out-of-the-box, highly customizable, modular system
• Default machinery recipes are still available on the Factory.
• "Threading" system
  • In contrast to normal machinery, the recipe execution in the Factory System is done by multiple "threads"
  • There are multiple threads within a factory system, and these threads work without interfering with each other.
  • CraftTweaker API
    • Add permanent/semi-permanent recipe modifiers to threads.
    • Allows a fixed thread name to be assigned to a recipe, so that it can only be executed by threads with the same name.
    • Allows setting a recipe to "Single Thread" mode so that it can only run at most one of this recipe at a time in the factory.
  • Multiple recipes may be completed per thread, and threads are automatically reclaimed after a period of inactivity.
  • Also, there is a thread variant: daemon "threads", which are always present in the factory and are decorated with a special color in the GUI.
    • Allows to set recipes for threads to work with via the CraftTweaker API.
    • Allows setting a fixed thread name.

General updates

• (Experimental) mechanical multi-cube recipe modifier
  • Just like modifiers in the machinery file, but in multiblock form.
  • Added via ZenScript.
• New CraftTweaker API
• 4 new recipe events
  • FactoryRecipeStartEvent
  • FactoryRecipePreTickEvent
  • FactoryRecipeTickEvent
  • FactoryRecipeFinishEvent
• 1 new mechanical event
  • SmartInterfaceUpdateEvent
• Fix the issue that the item input/output bus sometimes does not display items properly on the client side.
• selective-tileentity-update is now enabled by default.

• Fix ZenUtils strong dependency.

• Experimental: Hot reload feature (requires ZenUtils, reload triggered by the command /ct reload)
  • Support for reloads:
    • All machinery registered with JSON and CraftTweaker
    • All recipes registered with JSON and CraftTweaker
    • All recipe adapters registered with JSON and CraftTweaker
    • All event listeners
    • JEI display that allows reloading of existing recipe content (Registered recipes only, cannot be added or removed)
    • Dynamic reloading of structure previews (Blueprints and JEI)
    • Dynamically add new machinery (Can't delete machinery)

• HOTFIX: Fix the problem that the flux plug point eats up all the energy.

• New mod support: Flux Networks
  • When compatibility is enabled in the profile (enabled by default), EnergyInputHatch and EnergyOutputHatch are allowed to transfer more than Integer.MAX_VALUE (2147483647) per Tick.
• The One Probe compatibility update
  • EnergyInputHatch and EnergyOutputHatch can now display progress bars in the TOP window for more than 2.1G.
  • When the controller fails in the middle of running a recipe, the TOP window displays a red progress bar.
• Fix the inaccurate transmission speed of item bus.

• Allows preview of larger mechanics (original MM was 20).
• InputBus can now automatically pull items from surrounding containers.
• OutputBus can now automatically eject items from inside to nearby containers.
  • When exporting items, the mechanic will give priority to exporting items to a container near the OutputBus.
• Fixed the issue where the mechanic's Modifier was not working
• Add a new CraftTweaker API: addSyncTask(Action action)
  • Since MMCE works asynchronously, using the recipe function could break the world.
  • So this method is provided in this release to provide a safe synchronous implementation for authors.

• New RecipeAdapter
  • NCO Infuser
  • NCO Chemical Reactor
• Performance improvements.
• Optimize large structure checks (Forge Server only).
• Provide formatted text for the display of values in the energy input and output hatches.
• Fix an issue that still checks structures when a blueprint is required for mechanical configuration and there is no blueprint in the controller.
• Fix certain potential problems.
• Fix incorrect modifier for CatalystInput application.

• New Feature: Parallel Recipe Process
  • When there is at least one parallel controller in the structure and the configuration options machine-parallelize-enabled-bydefault and recipe-parallelize-enabled-bydefault are both enabled, the machinery is automatically parallelized.
  • Most of the parallel controller options can be configured in modularmachinery.cfg.
• Increase the maximum horizontal length of the item input in the JEI preview to 4.
• Fix catalyst input is not consumed.
• Fix the phenomenon that the controller sometimes turns into a normal controller.
• Fix a small probability that the controller GUI will cause the game to crash.
• Fix #9.
