• PATCH NOTES SOON, PRIMARALY BUGFIX, BETA -

Content & Systems

• Added a new artiface mob, artifaces are similar to mortars & scale with ore tiers
• Artifaces are mechanical zombies that have increased vertical knockback & Knockback piercing all scaling with level. Artifaces also have a charging attack, to where they will enter a flight mode and preform a dash, dealing 1.2X damage and additional knockback.
• Added an airstrike resonator, airstrike resonators can be crafted using a new redstone cell item & redstone chips.
• Using an airstrike resonator will call down an airstrike at the area you are looking at after a windup & delay. And then once the airstrike is fully active it will then rain down high damage missles, denying the area and dealing damage to anything caught within it

QOL / Balancing

• Mortar warning SFX / VFX now play on the mortar instead of the player
• Buffed cherry bomb to 7 base damage
• Reduced nether mechanical mob spawns, & removed the light check for nether mechanical mob spawns. This should reduce flooding in low light areas & make them more common in general

Content

• Landmines can be placed and then right clicked in order to be set
• Stepping on a set landmine will trigger a short warning ping and then explode, with 5 explosion power at netherite tier
• A set landmine can be triggered by redstone changes or block updates, Allowing landmines to be chain triggered
• If you want to remove a set landmine, you can sneak and mine it away
• Added golden mortars, They can spawn in the nether or overworld underground

Balancing

• Buffed cherry bomb damage to 6->6.5
• Increased ore droprate for netherite mortars and diamond mortars, they should be gaurenteed
• Mortars now have new spawning mechanics, allowing them to spawn all the way down to bedrock, As previously they only copied the ore generation
• This should mean that more varieties of mortars will spawn deeper underground instead of in an ore triangle, This will apply to all future mechanical mobs
• Changed license to ARR

Content

• Barrel bombs wont trigger chain explosives and have a smaller explosion radius as well as a quicker fuse
• Barrel bombs can be kicked once lit to deal impact damage and lessen the fuse

• Each mortar drops the ore of there respective type, and it should make leftover ores more obtainable for certain tiers of bombs and future explosives
