Changelog

Beta 0.8

Backpacks no longer use the chestplate slot. Now to equip or unequip them you must use the new buttons in the GUI.

Added the Campfire block. It is a spawn point marker. Works in tandem with sleeping bags (but not regular beds). To use, simply place near (8 blocks) from your backpack, sleep in the sleeping bag. Wake up, take your backpack, leave and die. You will respawn at the campfire.

Completely integrated the CopterPack. Only available when Buildcraft is installed. It can use Buildcraft, Forestry and MFR fuels:

• Sneak + N (Or the hose switch button) to turn on/off. N to switch between Hover and normal modes.

Added the Steam Jetpack. Only available when Railcraft is installed. You can load water with buckets or by standing in water pools. Add coal. Be careful.

• Sneak + N (Or the hose switch button) to turn on/off.

Added the clockwork crossbow (creative only, WIP). Uses arrows.

Added a GUI overlay for all wearables to show Tank Information.

Added an optional status effects GUI overlay. Enabled by default.

Added inflatable boats. They don't break on impact. Just that and look pretty for the moment.

Increased the Machete's damage value to reflect its cost. Also increased slightly its usefulness with wood.

Slightly increased the Piston Boots' armor value.

Removed the Adventurer's suit. It will come back as a different armor set.

The hose can now "milk" mooshrooms too and fill your backpack with mushroom stew, like it does with cows and milk.

Added abilities to the following backpacks:

• Iron Golem: Makes you inmune to fall damage while worn.

• Sunflower: If you are under the sun, will slowly feed you.

• Mooshroom: Makes mushroom soup in the same way the cow produces milk.

• Spider: When wearing this backpack you'll be able to tame spiders and ride them. Simply right click a spider for this to happen.

• Horse: Horses or donkeys you tamed and assigned a name with a Name Tag will follow you when you are wearing this backpack.

• Rainbow backpack's ability will now stop the sound AND the buff if you remove it.

Added more config options.

Added more localization strings.

• Issues #37, #40, #36, #34, possibly #32, #31 and many more not reported at GitHub, including the on death placement, the weird dissapearances, the enchantment problems, the NBT erasing, the Bat backpack weird night vision problem, and some synchronization bugs with different clients. Hose issues have been resolved as well.

Probably created more exciting, exotic, fun bugs.
