0.15.11 Beta - Big Turn to Big Chests

New Block - Chest

• Each individual chest can store 800 of a single type of block

• Multiple chests can be welded together to create a bigger chest

• Welded chests can store welded structures

• Chests will automatically pick up adjacent blocks

• Chests extrude blocks when powered (extruding face has to be flat)

• Unwelding two chests that store welded items will also unweld the stored blocks

• After researching "Stacked Fabrication", welding two chests can weld the stored items, if they have the same stack count.

New Uses for Catalyst Core

• Catalyzed Motors can rotate welded structures, as an instant teleportation

  

• Catalyzed Displays make a large 5x5 hologram. The mouse cursor disrupts holograms.

  

Block Changes

• Pedestals can pull out of chests

• Extractor, Combiner, and Creator now ignore inductors on the front AND back

• Teleportores now have a trail effect

• Sensors on charge mode detect emitter blocks, actuators, and actuator bases

• Sensors on machining mode now detect manipulators and emitter blocks

• Accelerometers and sensors in moving mode now update after blocks that push

• Tweaked update propagation for teleportores teleporting teleportores

• Sensors on charge mode now update after wires and superconductors

• Combiner combining is now on a lower update rank than combiner extrusion

• Pushes that hit a search depth of 1000 now instantly fail, instead of looking for an alternate route. The search for an alternate route was a massive performance hit that rarely would succeed. This change is effectively is a more consistent global push limit of 1000 blocks.

Block Bug Fixes

• Fixed teleporting dynamic data blocks, like command block or chest

• Fixed some cases of water disappearing

• Fixed beams not changing color when a beam goes through a glass while that glass is being injected

• Water being next to other water no longer prevents it from being teleported

UI

• When interacting with inventories, tap right click over an empty slot to drop 1

• Added WAILA info for spark catcher

• The backpack window can now be moved when it is bigger than the game window

Technical Changes

• Added \n newlines to localization files

• Console command prefer_backpack_over_hotbar that changes the behavior of holstering blocks

• Added new command buggy_disable_global_push_unfail. This will probably break things, but is useful for performance testing,

• Added new command buggy_disable_light_updates. This will definitely break lighting and sensors on light mode, but is useful for performance testing

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a startup crash when shaders are disabled

• Localization files that are not valid UTF-8 will now log a message in the console instead of crash

• Fixed argument parsing for grant_passive

• Fixed guidebook crash

• Fixed a crash when piecing together pieces of the background diorama

• zoom command is now limited to the same as zoom_increase and zoom_decrease

• removed duplicate translation BLOCK_STATE count

• Fixed particles on tile_tick_multithread

• Fixed particle lifetime when in chair

• Fixed crash when a sound in an unloaded chunk gets unloaded when tile_tick_multithread was on
