Via Romana 2.1.0 [Neo/Forge & Fabric] Changelog:

Changes:

• Via Romana now has native builds for Forge and NeoForge which avoids any issues people were having with Sinytra Connector - #58
• Via Romana is no longer using Surveyor Map Framework for map info, we have our own ground-up system which both adds functionality and fixes crashes - #76 #70 #60 #59
  • Instead of Surveyor always scanning all chunks, chunks are now scanned during the charting process resulting in significantly lower storage utilization and performance impacts during normal use
  • Via Romana is still compatible on Fabric with Surveyor-based mods like Hoofprint and Antique Atlas for destination additions on maps
• We now use Moonlight for dynamic tag generation (instead of BRRP), Data Anchor for saving, and Common Network for networking
  • This means existing path networks aren't directly transferable to this update, but can be migrated using /viaromana convert legacyPaths (all networks will be saved to the overworld).
  • Deleting your existing via_romana.json config file is strongly recommended.

Additions:

• Added an estimated biome background layer which makes larger maps look much more complete
  • Added a config for defining custom config colours, useful for both overriding defaults or adding modded biomes (please submit a Github issue if a biome is missing that should be included)
• Added a fallback to biome data when a map is large enough for the added resolution of full chunk data to be diminishing, resulting in a significant speed boost for large map generation

Fixes/Improvements:

• Resolved traveler's Fatigue not applying as expected
• Resolved padding issues with the map screen
• Resolved nodes not saving globally instead of to a specific dimension
• Resolved status messages not correctly reflecting charting radius
• Resolved tutorial not correctly reflecting charting radius
• Resolved invalid block indicator not correctly reflecting charting radius
• Resolved nodes not being placed on the liquid blocks when added to valid path tag list
• Resolved nodes not scanning upwards for ideal placement
• Improved map background tile blending
• Improved node vignette when walking through charting nodes
• Improved underground detection for map screen path spline
• Improved default tag/block inclusions in via_romana:path_block
