VisionSteps

I am doing a bugfix patch. As part of the patch notes, I want to comment on some points of pain.

True Darkness will be staying. I know people have had issues with it. There is a reason it's there. Tell me you haven't just cranked gamma and ignored darkness as a mechanic, or seen night vision potions as worthless. We have some origins for whom night vision is a massive boon. As a result, anything that would cheapen that power is removed and true darkness is here to stay. Night vision potions and origins will be valuable, as will the torchbow and dynamic lights from an offhand torch.

Boats will be unchanged. I know they row backwards. That is realistic to actual rowing. I know they get destroyed in oceans. We have large ships you can build that dont sink in the ocean. Make ports!

Disabled the Feather Charm and the Tethered Soul. I am unable to tweak their functionality, leaving them as an all or nothing item. Considering the problems they cause, they are now nothing items.

The Hollowing system has been updated slightly. You now have 12 deaths instead of 6 before being Fully Hollowed. In addition, Enchanted Golden Apples (which are now CRAFTABLE) will restore SOME of your humanity (not all.). This does not work when fully hollowed. At that point, the Fey must still be petitioned. Please, be careful with your lives.

Steelskin now have indicators on their abilities

Hominapiums can now regurgitate honeycomb as well as honey

HOPEFULLY the Aaracokra can no longer pick up players. Hopefully. This is getting ridiculous.

You will now get your Mulligan and a book with some server info ON SPAWN! That info is as follows:

DEATHS Check your Origins (the O key by default) and look at Origin 4. That is your Hollowing. It gives debuffs when you die. Eat Enchanted Golden Apples to reduce. If you become Fully Hollow, you will need to Petition the Fey.

INCAPACITATED When you would die, you instead go Down. Another player can pick you up by crouching next to you.

BOATS Normal boats row as they do in the real world: backwards. They also cannot go in the ocean. You will have to make a ship for that.

TRUE DARKNESS Gamma will not help you! Use a Torchbow or Night Vision potions!

SPAWNPROOFING Campfires spawnproof in a large area! Rain does put them out though, so ensure they are sheltered!

FLIGHT Elytra are only available to origins that SPECIFICALLY mention them. If you want to fly otherwise, try building a plane or taming a dragon!

LAND CLAIMS We use the Flan mod for land claims! The golden hoe and stick are the items! /Flan Menu lets you change the settings of the claim you are in, gain more blocks by playing the game!

ITEM MODIFIERS Every item gets a modifier by default! Reroll it using the Anvil!

The ability to fall to the overworld from the ceilands is restored! Also, Bosses of Mass Destruction will no longer spawn there.

MORE PHANTOMS! AGAIN!

Explorer's Compass nerfed! It now takes 3 levels to use and has a max range of 1000 blocks!

Animal Weights now only applies to cows, pigs, chickens, and sheep. No more sick dragons!

Pixies no longer spawn. Their lag shall be NO MORE!

Dragonsteel equipment can now be made by upgrading from Netherite in a smithing table!
