* Added Fluid Storage Cells
* Added Fluid Import Bus
* Added Fluid Export Bus
* Added Fluid Storage Bus
* Added Fluid Terminal.
While holding a item with the FLUID_HANDLER_ITEM_CAPABILITY, such as a tank
Left click on a fluid to extract the fluid
Right click to insert the fluid
Comparable/Comparator implementation now use fast Java built-ins for
primitive types rather than hand-coded versions. Also DRY some code
and simplify logic.
This maintains the "biggest stack first" notion of "ascending", but
also fixes the inconsistent/accidental reversal of sort by mod (the
mod name should sort the same direction as the item name).
* Reworked cable connections
Added enums for cable variants and sizes.
Rules for connections between a cable and another cable or grid member
are much more simple without any exceptions for certain combinations.
1/ Connections are rendered as the lowest type between cores.
2/ Each type uses are core for clear separation.
3/ The core will always be on the cable with the higher order.
* Updated Grid API
Added Nonull/Nullable/Nonnegative where applicable.
Deprecated unused methods
Changed concrete classes with interfaces (HashMap -> Map)
IGridTickable will no longer accept null as TickingRequest. Do not
implement it, if it should not tick.
* Renamed parameter to match conventions
To reduce the amount of instanceof checks, it will now compare the same
subtupe.
Comparing an ItemStack and IAEItemStack can simply wrap it before
calling it. Heavy use should already use an IAEStack internal.
Analogue for fluids or other types.
The Cell registry now ensures that the first handler is our own as other
addons might depend on it.
Updated docs to match the new requirements.
Made internal handler classes final.
* Rework fuzzy comparison for 99 percent threshold
The current implementation is quite convoluted and can handle 99%
incorrectly when items exceed a certain damage range.
* Use metadata explicitly for comparison
Some item could use metadata to pack damageable and undamageable items
into the same id. Thus could lead to get ItemStack#getItemDamage() to
return bogus values for undamageable items.
Updating the blockstate of invalid TEs will cause Forge to restore the
block including the TE leading to invalid TEs sticking around after
being moved.
* Reworked IO Port to handle custom StorageChannels in a better way.
* Added a transferFactor to `IStorageChannel` to allow addons to speedup the IO Port to transfer faster. E.g. 1000 mB fluid as fast as transfering 1 bucket (item) per operation, not just 1 mB.
* Also some changes to avoid moving fluids being 1000x as energy expensive as items.
* Adds a debug generator for ForgeEnergy.
This adds a simple debug block to test external energy injection via
ForgeEnergy and not rely solely on creative cells.
The energy has two functions. The first is acting as an infinite
ForgEnergy battery, this is unused by AE2 itself as nothing pulls
energy.
The second one is injecting energy every tick into any adjacent block
accepting ForgeEnergy.
The base generation is 8 per tick, but this is increased by the power of
adjacent TileEnergyGenerators.
Adds a more abstract approach to map a cap to a certain type instead of
the hardcoded ForgeEnergy case.
Reorders the check from exact ItemStack > ModId > ForgeEnergy to
ItemStack > Cap > ModId. Thus the mod wildcard will be used last.
Support for ForgeEnergy and FluidHandlerItems by default.
Result for items supporting multiple capabilities is not defined.
