VORTEX Foundations

Hello! Been a bit, and that's probably for a reason. Progression is getting a large overhaul, and it starts with a hefty changelog. This is the beginning of the second era, or third, however you may see it.

In all cases, this 2.5.0 alpha update is but a snapshot, a glance into a future not yet ready for release. Just throwing this out so that people can try it out! And give feedback as soon as possible.

Don't forget to join our discussions over on Discord, the link to it now available through the Multiplayer menu. Oh right, the title screen got revamped! Tell me about your opinions in the aforementioned server, see you soon.

Notable Changes

• Brand new main menu screen!!!!!!

Multiplayer Screen now has Vanilla or VF server tabs Check out this changelog ingame oooo...

• You now need to light up furnaces and such in the early game. Config pending.
• Rain no longer extinguishes campfires.
• Snow can now accumulate... But not up to a full block. Feedback required on accumulation speed.
• Brand new electricity with Create: TFMG, completely replacing the old system.
• New Cobblestone generation method in the works, try it out!

You can cast lava into Cobbled Deepslate through casting basins. Cobblestone output for crushing Cobbled Deepslate has been doubled.

• Villages are all brand new, and all very large.
• Deep on the sea floor, you can find vents of certain stone types... Explode them to awaken their power, then turn lava into the corresponding stone by pumping it next to the vent.

Deep sea drilling, now available.
