Via Romana: Infrastructure-Driven Fast Travel

Additions:

• Added Block Substring Blacklist to config, adding strings here can avoid crashes with mods that have conflicts with Via Romana's block tag creation system, if adding an entry fixes a crash on your end please report it so I can add it for future updates.
• Added Node Clearance that is used to indicate tunnels on Teleport Map Screen

Fixes:

• Added hat layer to player head indicator on Teleport Map Screen: Issue Link
• Improved charting on slopes to not attached to an existing node if it's below 1 block from the players Y level, this allows for charting up tight stairways: Issue Link
• Fixed conflict with Diagonal Blocks mods (eg. Diagonal Walls, Diagonal Fences, Diagonal Windows): #57
• Fixed Surveyor Map Framework crash: #59

The mod has been rewritten to use a new system for charting, linking, and teleporting.

Charting

Charting is now done using the Charting Map item. It has a built in tutorial, infrastructure block indicator, the ability to start, stop, and cancel charting, as well as node action buttons. Charting a path now places a set of nodes along your route which are visible to the player, these nodes will form a path upon finishing charting.

Linking

Linking is now handled from the sign edit GUI, you simply right-click on an existing sign and press Add To Path if the sign is within range from a node. Pressing this opens the Sign Link screen which allows for destination customization before confirming the link.

Teleporting

Teleporting is now handled using the Teleport Screen. It is accessible by left-clicking a linked sign. Opening the screen will display a map of the path that sign is connected to, along with every other sign destination on that path. Clicking on a destination will teleport you to it.

Bug Fixes

• Prevented removing Travellers Fatigue by drinking milk - Issue #30
• Fixed charting being allowed despite being too far from previous node - Discord Link

Bug Fixes

• Improved teleportation
  • Player stays riding mount post-teleport
  • Footstep sounds now pull from block data
  • Prevented a fall damage bug from occurring
• Prevented Patchouli recipe errors on Forge
• Removed debug overlay screen & gamerule as it caused nothing but problems

Potential Fixes

These issues were not specifically targeted, but seem to have been resolved inadvertently during the refactoring:

• Unable to re-create Spartan Shield incompatibility
  • Unable to recreate likely the same/similar issue mentioned in Discord
  • Unable to recreate likely the same/similar issue mentioned in Issue #40

• Added planks & crafted mud blocks to via_romana:path_block

Note:

The Forge and Fabric builds now have full pairity, going forwards both builds will update together. This may break your KubeJS scripts as the tags have changed.
