Compatibility
Changes
Auroral 1.3.0
Added
- Aurora Blooms can now grow on Ice, Packed Ice, and Blue Ice in addition to snow and Shimmering Ice (so frozen ocean surfaces are now valid spawn ground)
- Aurora Blooms placed on a snow layer (manually or by the mod) now sit above the snow layer instead of replacing it, so the snow is preserved as-is
- Aurora Blooms placed in powder snow are now snow-logged: the bloom grows inside the powder snow rather than displacing it, and powder snow is restored when the bloom is broken or wilts
- Glacial Basin output slot can now be emptied by sneak + right-clicking the basin with an empty hand
- Glacial Basin extraction via automation is restricted to the output slot — pipes can no longer pull queued items out of the input slot
- Snow-logged blooms emit faint snowflake particles above themselves so they can still be located when buried under additional snow
- Snow Angels are now tagged as replaceable, so blocks can be placed directly into a snow angel's space without breaking it first
Fixed
- Aurora Blooms can no longer be spawned on a snow layer whose underlying block isn't a valid bloom surface, preventing blooms from being left sitting on stone or dirt after the snow melts
- Aurora Bloom natural spawning now fires a block-place event, so claim-protection mods like FTB Chunks can prevent blooms from appearing inside other players' claimed chunks
- Aurora Bloom surface scanning now picks the topmost snow/ice in a column, so snow layers sitting on top of snow blocks are recognized as the spawn target rather than blocking the place-above branch
- Snow Angels now require both hands to be empty to be created, rather than only the main hand
Tweaks
- When a snow-logged Aurora Bloom dies (daytime wilt or surface lost), it now decays back into powder snow instead of vanishing
Optional dependencies
Projects on Modrinth are automatically available through a Maven repository for use with JVM build tools such as Gradle. To learn more about the Modrinth Maven API, click here.
Note: When available, you should use the creator's maven repo instead as it will have transitive dependency information that the Modrinth Maven API does not. You may also end up with duplicate dependencies if you use a mix of Modrinth and non-Modrinth Maven repositories for your dependencies, because the group identifier will be different when served through the Modrinth Maven API.
