Changelog

1.2.0

• Added stable numbered recipe identities so multiple recipes for the same result, including recipes with identical runtime names, are all written to references and can be overridden independently.
• Made recipe application transactional: unresolved crafting stations or resources keep the safe existing state, and newly added recipes are registered only after complete validation to prevent accidental free crafting.
• Made recipe removal and restoration fully live, refreshed connected clients' crafting UI correctly, isolated per-recipe failures, and reapplied overrides after external mods rebuild recipe objects.

1.1.11

• Added top-level item toolTier overrides with baseline restoration and live synchronization, while omitting the vanilla minimum tier 0 from compact references.

1.1.10

• Deferred server-synced item: status-effect icon validation until both effect and item payloads are ready, avoiding transient missing-item warnings while preserving genuine unresolved-reference diagnostics.

1.1.9

• Stopped rebuilding ObjectDB item registers during shutdown restoration, avoiding cleanup warnings when Unity has already destroyed a registered prefab.

1.1.8

• Breaking: Removed item visual.color and visual.emission. Existing item YAML must remove these keys and select an existing donor with visual.material instead.
• Hardened cloned-item and status-effect reloads by ordering clone dependencies, blocking cycles, rebinding dependent references, and deferring network-unsafe clone identity changes until the next world.
• Made startup, shutdown, and world transitions fault-isolated and ownership-safe across overrides, localization, icons, and VNEI refreshes.
• Improved piece reload cleanup and visual ownership so DataForge-managed components are removed only when unused and later visual changes made by other mods are preserved.
• Corrected generated reference defaults, ObjectDB cache invalidation, and station-extension spacing behavior.
• Avoided a HarmonyX type lookup warning when the optional MagicPlugin dependency is not installed.
• Reworked Thunderstore and Nexus packaging to synchronize the source manifest with the DLL version before staging, validating, and atomically promoting release archives.

1.1.7

• Replaced the rarely used extraAmountOnlyOneIngredient recipe resource value with an exact-quality upgrade field, allowing requirements such as SurtlingCore: 0, 5, 2.
• Added automatic reference and full-scaffold detection for exact-quality requirements supplied by compatible recipe frameworks.
• Added the synced Upgrade Material Scaling setting with Vanilla, Flat, and Reduced modes while leaving exact-quality and custom-calculated requirements unchanged.

1.1.6

• Added stats.maxStats: health, stamina, eitr for stackable maximum-stat bonuses on any active status effect, with localized tooltip lines and zero-value reference pruning.
• Added MagicPlugin compatibility that maps native maximum-Eitr and Eitr-regeneration bonuses into stats.maxStats and stats.regenMultiplier, while preserving native behavior until explicitly overridden.
• Removed the specialized healthUpgrade status-effect schema in favor of the generic stats.maxStats field.

1.1.5

• Hardened server-synced localization across language changes, reconnects, world transitions, and live YAML reloads while preserving later token changes made by other mods.
• Added strict validation and size limits to the versioned localization payload so invalid or excessive data keeps the last-known-good configuration.
• Added source file and line numbers to server-side validation messages for item, recipe, piece, status-effect, and piece-category YAML.

1.1.4

• Added whole-category moves between build tools through pieceCategory.yml, including optional localized labels and exact-name merging into existing destination tabs.
• Made category moves reversible, hid emptied source tabs, and kept individual pieces.yml pieceTable assignments as the final priority.
• Improved category YAML validation to support one order/label entry plus multiple source mappings, reject ambiguous conflicts, and document explicit empty sections such as GB_Parchment_Tool: [].

1.1.3

• Added pieceCategory.yml and pieceCategory.reference.yml for per-hammer category ordering and localized display labels.
• Improved exact, case-sensitive category discovery so categories added by PieceManager, Jotunn, and other mods keep stable names instead of shifting to numeric tabs.
• Added Homestead compatibility by leaving its category owner-managed, excluding it from DataForge category overrides, and keeping its tab last.

1.1.2

• Removed DataForge's built-in startup and lobby profiler now that loading diagnostics are available in the standalone LoadTimeProfiler patcher.
• Delayed reference and full-scaffold generation until the required game databases and piece tables are ready, avoiding premature or repeated generated-artifact work.
• Skipped full baseline scans when an unchanged reference-state cache can be reused.
• Reduced global item stack and weight multiplier overhead by keeping lightweight multiplier baselines separate from full item override baselines.
• Refreshed targeted item, recipe, status-effect, and piece baselines when game database prefab instances are replaced across world transitions.

1.1.1

• Improved incremental override reloads so only changed entries are reapplied while invalid YAML and localization payloads keep the last-known-good configuration.
• Restored item, recipe, status effect, piece, PieceTable category, visual, and localization state cleanly across world and dedicated-server transitions.
• Hardened DataForge-created item, recipe, and status-effect ownership so same-name objects supplied by other mods are not removed during cleanup.
• Improved auto-icon cache invalidation, config reload coalescing, component topology refreshes, and first-apply consistency after reconnecting.

1.1.0

• Added automatic custom hammer category creation for piece overrides, so entries like category: Storage can create usable hammer tabs.
• Reduced effect reference noise by hiding no-op healthOverTime and attackDamage: None entries.
• Optimized hammer category normalization and consolidated ZNetScene startup handling.

1.0.11

• Fixed global item stack and weight multipliers restoring full item baselines on unrelated items.
• Kept stack and weight multiplier application independent so each option only touches its own field.
• Improved compatibility with mods that patch item durability or other shared item fields at runtime.

1.0.10

• Fixed item attack health percentage costs being clamped to 1%, which could make BloodMagic weapons consume far less health than intended when applied through DataForge.
• Clarified item attack cost comments so the fourth value is documented as a percent value, e.g. 40 means 40%.

1.0.9

• Added visual.scale for item attach/drop meshes while keeping icon: auto snapshots readable.
• Added status-effect icon reuse with icon: item:ItemPrefabName.
• Removed item attack projectile and spawnOnTrigger YAML fields to keep attack overrides focused.

1.0.8

• Added item attack projectile overrides for primary and secondary attacks.
• Added full scaffold and reference output for projectile: prefab, velocity, velocityMin, count, accuracy, accuracyMin.
• Kept default projectile tuples hidden from compact reference files.

1.0.7

• Added spawnOnTrigger support for primary and secondary item attacks.
• Improved auto icon cache invalidation with renderer fingerprints and stale cache pruning.
• Fixed auto icon snapshots blending together when multiple icons are generated in the same startup pass.
• Clarified recipe YAML header examples for result amounts and suffixed recipe keys.

1.0.6

• Changed DataForge's VNEI compatibility lookup to resolve only the required VNEI types from the VNEI plugin assembly.
• Reduced HarmonyX reflection warnings caused by VNEI's optional EpicLoot compatibility type when EpicLoot is not installed.

1.0.5

• Delayed item, recipe, piece, and status-effect override application until the game data is fully ready.
• Improved status-effect VFX/SFX prefab resolution for effects referenced by other status effects.
• Suppressed missing custom icon warnings on headless dedicated servers.
• Improved status-effect clone cleanup and refresh across reloads and world transitions.

1.0.4

• Added tooltip lines for status-effect attack damage and skill experience modifiers.
• Added localization defaults and improved missing localization fallback for status-effect tooltips.
• Added piece scale and visual material overrides, plus stationExtension: None support.
• Added automatic VNEI reindexing after DataForge item, recipe, and piece changes.
• Improved piece crafting-station component overrides for adding and removing DataForge-managed stations.

1.0.3

• Added a client-side hammer highlight for crafting stations and their station extensions.
• Changed the weight multiplier option to apply to all item weights while preserving explicit item YAML weight overrides.
• Kept stack multiplier behavior limited to stackable items.

1.0.2

• Changed the mod author/GUID to sighsorry.DataForge.

1.0.1

• Removed dynamic loading of UnityEngine.ImageConversionModule from item and status-effect icon loaders.
• Added a static UnityEngine.ImageConversionModule build reference so custom icon loading and auto-icon cache PNG export keep working without runtime module probing.
• Improved package validation compatibility for Thunderstore by avoiding dynamic Unity module loading.
• Added status-effect ownership interop support so DataForge-owned status effects can be treated as exclusive by companion mods.
• Improved hammer comfort UI behavior, including same comfort-group highlighting and hidden-piece masking compatibility.
• Documented stationExtension add/remove behavior for piece overrides.

1.0.0

• Initial public release of DataForge.
