RFTools (Legacy)

2.60:

• Dimension related changes:
  • Fundamental change in the way that dimlets are recognized by the game. This is an important change that makes dimlets less dependend on world-specific numeric ids. Instead dimlets will be recognized by type and name. Old dimlets are automatically converted when they are used and when starting all dimensions are also automatically converted (the dimension descriptor string format has changed because it no longer contains the numeric ids of the dimlets). This does mean that once you load a world with 2.60 you cannot get back as older versions cannot read this new dimension information.
  • A side effect of this refactoring is that dimlets are now sorted properly in NEI.
  • Fixed a serious bug in single player that could cause the dimension information to be lost/corrupt if a crash happened (for whatever reason).
  • New Volcano Feature dimlet. This adds 'active' volcanoes to a dimension. This is an experimental feature and probably going to change a bit more. For that reason the volcano feature will not be generated randomly for now.
  • New Spawn Special dimlet. Adding this dimlet to a dimension will make the player respawn in that dimension (unless it doesn't have enough power). The respawn position cannot be set yet though.
  • New Weather dimlets. You can also inject these into existing worlds.
  • Fixed the Oregen Feature dimlet. It didn't do anything.
  • New 'respawnRfToolsDimension' configuration option which will make it so that players respawn in the rftools dimension if they die (unless the dimension is low on power).
  • Added various ores to dimlets.json for balancing reasons: Big Reactors, Tinkers Construct, Metallurgy, ReactorCraft, Thaumcraft, Applied Energistics, Factorization, Nether Ores, Mariculture,...
  • Added an option to control what happens if you try to sleep in a bed in an RFTools dimension. You can set it to do nothing (default) or explode (previous default). There is also an option to actually try to sleep. It only works partially though. The sleep sequence seems to start but the time of day actually doesn't change. However, this does set the spawn point to where the bed is (if the respawn settings for the dimension allow it) so it is useful in that respect.
  • Improved formatting output of the dump rarity command.
• Teleportation system changes:
  • Added a warning on teleporting when the matter receiver is getting low on power.
  • Added an option to make a matter transmitter consume power when dialed and idle. Default off so that this does not change default behaviour.
  • New Matter Booster block. Put this block next to a matter transmitter. It will allow the transmitter to send the player to an unpowered receiver. The player will still get some damage and effects but he will not die. The matter transmitter will need a bit more power to do this.
• Various changes:
  • The Activity Probe, Destination Analyzer and the new Matter Booster blocks are now correctly mineable with a pickaxe and will not disappear anymore.
  • Fixed a problem with the configuration comments being lost. This made it hard to configure rftools if you don't already know what the options do. It is recommended to delete the rftools config files after updating.
  • Moved the dimletsettings configuration to dimlets.cfg. If you have your own custom changes you should move them from main.cfg to dimlets.cfg.
