Hi, this is not intended, but i was not able to reproduce this problem. Can you name one mod where this happens?

Dear Homesteaders v1.16.1-rc.2, a unstable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager. Feels likely an eternity since the last update, doesn't it? Time to remedy that!

I'll increase the sword swing speed by 25% next release

Dear Homesteaders v1.16.0, a stable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager. This is it community. v1.16 looks stable enough to me. There are still bugs, but I estimate there's now less than in 1.15.10. This major update contains over 300 features, tweaks and fixes. It's been quite a monumental task to get here. As always, it would not have been possible with the incredible amounts of feedback and bug reports by you, the community. I'm very grateful for your support, thank you so much! The theme of this update did morph a bit during development. We originally wanted to complete some of the homesteading features that didn't make it into 1.15, but now also contains some major rework on how drifters spawn and behave as well as major changes to the games combat. While nothing is ever set in stone, I do hope these combat changes sufficiently address some of the shortcomings that a part of our community (rightfully) critized. Looking forward, the VS Team will focus on a new main game trailer and then begin work on 1.17. Our main topics for the next update are De-Jank and Story Content. We'd like to address some of the unintuive and half finished parts of the game and get to work on the first main story event. Definitely lots more exciting new stuff to be worked on there! Until then, the VS Team is happy to present you: Version 1.16 - Homesteading part 2 and Combat update! Oh and please Note, in about one Week, we'll slightly increase the price of the game, by about 3-4 USD Note2: You can still player your old 1.15 worlds with 1.16. Only two things are not backwards compatible - liquids stored in buckets and barrels will be lost and the new content such as mushrooms will only generate in new chunks. Main update trailer Screenshots / Gifs Server wide auction house: Buy and sell on a global scale...for a price (multiplayer feature only) Rifts: Temporal distortions now spawn in the world that affect drifter spawn Crates: Beautiful single item mass storage, with item labels and visible contents Trunks: Like 2 chests together, but better! Alcohol making: A fruit press, juice fermentation and a distillery for the ultimate drunken VS experience \o/ Class exclusive item: Hacking spear and hacked locusts for the clockmaker Combat update: Added shields and more Liquid system rework: Now easier and more satisfying to use for modders and players alike! Fruit Trees: 9 types of seasonal fruit producers. A flowery delight in spring! Fruit tree dynamic growth: A fruit tree takes a while to mature Fruit tree grafting: Fruit trees are propagated by taking and planting a cutting, but you can also graft it onto an existing fruit tree Forest floors: Forests are so much more foresty now. Mushroom update: Over 34 new types of mushrooms Improved wind effects: Rewritten and triple polished wind sway effects. Example - here's a wind swaying sunflower, before and after Ground storage tweaks: Can now 4x4 place pots, bowls and also optionally center place them Ground storage tweaks: Can now place shoes on the ground and on shelves Easy modded server joining: The game now tries to download mods from the VS Mod DB, no more manual installing required Improved multimaterial chiseling: Can now add new materials much more quickly Armor Stand Feature: They can now carry tools and weapons Drifter Rework: They will now throw stones at you.

Every trader now gives you access to a server wide auction house where players can buy and sell items To still encourage direct trade, the auction house comes with multiple (configurable) fees: 1 rusty gear for each week of having your item listed 10% sales cut for each item sold Transpot costs of 1 to 8 gears or direct pickup for free Everytime you join the server, you get a status update send to you in chat about your active auctions Server owners can configure the cost or disable the auction house altogether Feature: New storage options! Crates 20 to 25 slot containers for one type of item, without GUI. Left/Right click to take/put one item or hold shift to move entire stacks Can be labelled with a icon label using paper and a pigment Paper can be bought at the commodities and foods traders Trunks: A double size chest with one extra column of space Feature Distillery and Fruit press All fruits can now be juiced in the fruit press Juice can now be fermented into cider Cider can be further distilled into spirit Drinking Cider and Spirit makes you drunk Feature: Fruit tree update 12 types of fruit trees (red apple, pink apple, yellow apple, peach, pear, cherry, orange, olive, mango, breadfruit, lychee and pomegranate) now spawn in newly generated chunks. Break the side branches for a chance to retrieve a cutting. This cutting, when planted, should sprout after a couple of days and eventually mature into a full tree (does not require fertilizer or watering for the time being) Fruit trees will yield fruit once a year, depending on the sort. They'll go through various distinct cycles: Flowering, Fruiting, Ripe fruit, No fruit and then Dormant for decidious trees, which is a leafless version only with branches. The evergreens (mango, orange and olive) stay green all year round. Ripe fruit can then be used for cooking and juicing Fruit trees planted in an unsuitable climate will die Feature: Mushroom update 34 new types of mushrooms, some of them now growing on the sides of trees. Mushroom growth rework: Mushrooms no longer leave stumps when harvested, but will still regrow over time Mushroom world generation rework: The world now has distinct regions where certain only a subset of all mushrooms grow Feature: Auto-modded server install!

Hint: You should be able to increase the chance of it spawning by repeatedly killing corrupt/nightmare drifters Feature: Combat update Added crude wooden shields, when standing 15% chance of blocking 1.5 to 3 damage, when sneaking 85% chance of blocking 3 to 5 damage, depending on the shield type Long blades now also have a wind up time, attack animation and strike effects, much like the spear Mitigate cases where creatures attack players while looking away Ranged aiming accuracy buildup is now about 50% quicker The hurt screen overlay effect now indicates from which direction the attack came from Improved hit knockback on creatures and players Feature: Wind shader rework Much improved code, making it easier for modders to add wind sway effects to their blocks and items through VS Model Creator Fixes heavy wind sway derp on sunflowers and other plants Made storm level winds more impactful Added water storm particles Feature: Ground storage rework Any 2x2 storable can now be placed in the middle Pots, bowls and crocks are now 2x2 ground storable, while still able to transfer foods between them Feature: Liquid system rework Liquid quantities are now shown in litres instead of amount of items Bowls can now be used to transfer liquids, just like the bucket New liquid container: The jug, a 3 litre container Implemented container specific transfer sizes. Buckets let you transfer 1 litre each, bowls 0.1 litre each, jugs 0.3 litre each Liquids such as milk, juices, ciders and etc. can now be consumed for satiety, either from a bucket, bowl or the jug Can now craft bread dough also with a (water filled) bowl + flour Fixed handbook dough recipe showed an empty bucket instead of a bucket with 1 litre of water inside Added sound and particle effects when moving liquids Feature: Character class exclusive items Clockmaker: The hacking spear. Each hit with a hacking spear gives the clock maker a 15% chance to hack a locust, which will then fight by his side. Beware, hacked locus are extremely jealous on one another Malefactor: The sling.

Feature: Easy multimaterial chiseling - can now easily add more materials to a chiseled block, by dropping blocks into the tool model selector dialog Feature: Added rare polar bear spawn. The other bear types should get added in the future. Feature: Added vertical planks block Feature: Server side moddb install utility - /moddb Feature: New world config to disable class exclusive recipes Feature: Added Alcohol-soaked bandages, and grid recipe for solder bars Feature: Added admin longblade for testing purposes. (Creative mode only) Feature: Added command /gm shorthand for /gamemode Feature: A new set of main menu backgrounds, half of which are made by the community (please contact me if we shouldn't use your screenshot) Feature: Added 2 new sets of colorful creative mode blocks. One set of strong light and another with weak light, but both with max glow. Feature: Leather can now be dyed to make certain clothes (and a shield) instead of making the clothes in a barrel. Tweak: Improved creative inventory search, e.g. when searching for "stone" the loose stones are near the top now Tweak: Major Crop rebalance. Doubled growth times and yields for most crops with some exceptions. (Experimental) Rye Cold Dmg changed to -12, Cold Mult to .75, and Heat Dmg to 27 (same heat dmg as turnip). Spawn conditions of Rye were changed to be in the -12 to 14 temperature range. Overal rye should now be more suited to northerly climates. Rice Heat Damage ceiling increased from default to 46. Peanut growth time was doubled, but yield was left alone. Amaranth growth time not changed, since its already about 50% of irl. Yield still doubled though. Cassava growth time was left alone, being already rather long (though still nowhere near irl). Yield was still doubled to keep the satiety per day vaguely 'competitive'. Doubled pumpkin mother plant growth time, but did not touch anything else, for now. Pineapple was not touched due to already being a very long growth time and its also the only farmable fruit. Tweak: Creature ai tweaks, applies to all creatures Slower look around speed They now tend to wander further Mitigate chasing derp (where creatures turn back for a second) Fixed walking sideways in 3rd camera mode caused animals to target wrongly Creature attack knockback now proportional to damage Tweak: Lots of visual tuning and polishing Fine tuned snow accumulating and melting to be a bit less abrupt. Fine tune wind affected particles Fine tuned explosion particle spawning a bit and made them more proportional to the explosion radius Fine tuned Aurora visuals Fine tuned teleporter sounds and teleport effect First person held item position/rotation polishing Fine tuned first person attack/interact animations some more Dark blocks now get a white selected block outline for easier chiseling Added more water bubbles when walking in water Zoomed in all spear gui transforms. Looks weird but can tell apart spears more easily now. Tweak: Lots of other gameplay balancing Slight speedup when walking in water, for creatures and players Windmills no longer work underground, unless worldconfig undergroundWindmills is set to "true" Standing still now reduces your hunger rate 4-fold instead of 3-fold Buffed all bow by +0.25 damage.

For a first code sample, check out ItemProspectingPick.cs Feature: Improved mounting system. Should now be properly network synced \o/ Sneak to unmount a IMountable is no longer hardcoded. It must now be handled by the IMountable itself, see BEBed.cs as example. Feature: Ability for custom gui/fp itemstack renderers, register via api.Event.RegisterItemstackRenderer() Feature: *byType precedence: For the Json assets blocktype, itemtype and entitytype, can now define an attribute as well as a *byType attribute, whereas the latter takes precedence, e.g. stackSize: 32 would be overwritten by stackSizeByType: { "*": 16 } Feature: Explosion code upgrades Explosions radii have an upper limit, which is now doubled, reaching it nonetheless now throws a more informative exception Fixed particle lag and upper cap issues, as they now spawn async Fixed a crash in the lighting engine when explosions go beyond chunk boundaries Added blockDropChanceMultiplier argument to CreateExplosion() to reduce block drops by explosions (large explosions drop *a lot* of blocks) Feature: .gltf models now support most flags Feature: Added api.Render.RenderItemStackToAtlas(), allows rendering of an itemstack into a texture atlas Feature: Can now set amount of inventory columns for GenericTypedContainer blocks Feature: Add initialDelayOffsetMs arg to Event.RegisterGameTickListener() to mitigate lag spikes from many listeners running code at the same time Feature: Added withInheritance argument to api.ModLoader.GetModSystem() Feature: Added new render stage EnumRenderStage.AfterBlit Feature: Added client side api death event Feature: Added sapi.HandleCommand() to run a custom command through code Feature: In the json assets, can now define a "ucontents" property to define contents of containers.

(the value must be an array) Feature: Added Block.PriorityInteract property to be able to sneak interact with a block before sneak interacting with the currently held item. Used for the new crate. Refactor: Recipe systems are no longer engine exclusive. All recipe systems (except the grid recipes) are now moved from api/engine to the survival mod. This means: If you need to look up cooking recipes, reference VSSurvivalMod.dll and exchange world.CookingRecipes with "Api.ModLoader.GetModSystem<RecipeRegistry>().CookingRecipes" or through the helper method "Api.CookingRecipes()" If you only add cooking recipe json files, no changes are required You can now add your own recipe system. Check out RecipeRegistry.cs for reference (still needs handbook support, though) Refactor: All Barrel recipes that have liquids as input or output, instead of quantity and stacksize respectively, these should now define "litres". However for backwards compatibility, if the recipe loader encounters a liquid ingredient or output without a litres definition, it will assume quantity/stacksize = litres and log a warning. Refactor: Rename BlockLiquidContainerBase.GetInContainerProps to BlockLiquidContainerBase.GetContainableProps Refactor: The block code for planks has changed from planks-{wood} to planks-{wood}-hor Refactor: Minor refactor in Weather/WeatherSimulationParticles.cs Tweak: Holding sneak key with .edi enabled shows you item attributes in the itemstack tooltip Tweak: Added the boolean properties CanDrinkFrom, IsTopOpened and AllowHeldLiquidTransfer to BlockLiquidContainerBase, can also be set via json attribute (unless you use the class BlockLiquidContainerTopOpened, which sets them all to true) Tweak: RegisterAiTask and RegisterVtmlTagConverter is now in ICoreApi (through C# class extension in the esentials/survival mod) Tweak: Shape elements of zero size are now no longer tesselated Tweak: New tool: /debug heldstattr key type value Tweak: Added IDisposable interface to many classes that are disposable Tweak: Calling networkChannel.SendPacket() server side without player args now throws an exception Tweak: Added CollectibleObject.TpOffHandTransform Tweak: Added helper methods for ITreeAttribute Set/GetVec3i, Set/GetBlockPos and Set/GetVec3is Tweak: Added ISaveGame.StoreData<T> and ISaveGame.GetData<T>() Tweak: Added SendBlockEntityPacket<T>(IServerPlayer player, BlockPos pos, int packetId, T data = default(T)) BroadcastBlockEntityPacket<T>(BlockPos pos, int packetId, T data = default(T)) Refactor: Massive Windwave/VertexFlags refactor. All wind related vertex flags are now consolidated into 2 properties - windMode and windData. Can now define these 2 values *per vertex* in VS Model creator Refactor: Rework mesh generation of displayed items, such as items in shelves or ground storage. This is now done through the interface IContainedMeshSource for the contained item, instead of hardcoded in each container. Refactor: BlockEntity.OnBlockBroken() now has a new argument IPlayer byPlayer Refactor: Rename AddDecor() to SetDecor() and allow passing air blocks to remove decor Refactor: Merged BreakDecor() and BreakDecorPart() into one method Refactor: Remove API.Common.Action, replaced with System.Action Refactor: GuiElementCellList is now generic Refactor: GuiElementHandbookList is now GuiElementFlatList (now a slightly more basic version than GuiElementCellList) Refactor: Renamed entity "Hitbox" to "Collisionbox" (Hitbox can still be used but is marked obsolete) Refactor: Removed world argument from all methods in ILiquidSink & ILiquidSource Tweak: Seperated creature hitbox into collisionbox and selectionbox (the later is used for attacking and interacting with creatures) Tweak: Removed and consolidated a lot of crushed shape files since they were all essentially the same.

Dear Homesteaders v1.16.0-rc.3, a unstable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager. Besides the usual round of fixes, we've also added a few extra creative mode blocks that felt lacking. They are essentially a subset of the current creative blocks, but light emitting. One with light level 22, and the other one with light level 4, the latter of which allows for some interesting chiseling possibilities. In total, there are 58 new creative mode light source blocks. I hope it inspires you to make some fancy colorful builds Here are all the strongly light emitting ones And a smaller selection of the faint light sources, but still strongly glowing ones, chiseled into rock: Game updates Feature: Added 2 new sets of colorful creative mode blocks. One set of strong light and another with weak light, but both with max glow. Feature: Leather can now be dyed to make certain clothes (and a shield) instead of making the clothes in a barrel.
