1.5.0 New Horizons now requires [Vanilla Fix](https://outerwildsmods.com/mods/vanillafix/). Might as well ensure the base game is as stable as possible before we go and break everything ourselves right. ## Major Features - Stars can now be set to go supernova at any set time during the loop - After going supernova, stars will be replaced by a stellar remnant. You can set this to be a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole, or create your own custom remnant using a config! - Custom credits can be written in the `addon-manifest.json` file and will appear during the in-game credits. - Added support for custom projection stones, projection platforms, and shared Nomai whiteboards. ## Minor Features - Added support for MegaPiggy's [OWRichPresence](https://outerwildsmods.com/mods/discordrichpresence/) mod. Lets your friends on Discord know when you're exploring NH planets! - An emission map texture and colour can now be applied to heightmap planets. - Geysers can be manually offset, and will start at the spout instead of the shaft by default now - Added geyser tint, force, volume, and interval settings - Overhauled bramble node tints - Can change the "oxygen detected" to mention trees or not with `hasTrees` - Supernova shockwave effect will display on planets when their stars explode. Can be customized with `ShockEffect` module - Added fluid types to tornados. - Added opacity curve to rings. Allows you to fade rings in or out. - Added nomai trailmarkers. ## Improvements - Stars look much better now - Bramble dimensions now disappear when not inside - Proxy planets/stars now have atmospheres, fog, and lightning if applicable - Added plasma splash effect to player - Added splash effects to planets for when they collide with a fluid volume (water, sand, clouds, lava, star) - `removeChildren` now works on all planets and after NH is done adding stuff to them, so you can remove certain things. For example, add a black hole but remove the destruction volume and just keep visuals, or add a star but remove the surface. - Can now specifically set the fact required to show coordinates for a system in the Vessel in your star system config. - Added localization support to some warp drive related lines. - Updated French localization. ## Bugfixes - Fixed pre-crash computers to allow 5 rings - Fixed lots of bramble scale issues - **_Default bramble dimension radius is now 750 instead of 1705_** - Bramble dimension entrances and exits are fixed now - Stop alpha value being set for Bramble fog (has strange effects, fog density should be used instead) - Fixed Nomai recorders not animating - Fixed default tornado type (had been changed by accident before) - Vision torches no longer continue projecting on the ground - Fixed sectors of Attlerock and Hollow's Lantern - Base game assets should stay loaded now regardless of sector shenanigans - Vanilla locator now registers Attlerock, Hollow's Lantern, Map Satellite, Hourglass Focal Point, and Sun Station. Potentially useful for mods which use NH as a dependency. - Fixed a bug where eccentric binary orbits didn't work. - Fixed a bug when adding atmosphere to non-planets. - Fixed the bug where Bob would venture to the center of the Hearth (he's on vacation). - Probably a lot more that I forgor. Thank you MegaPiggy and Trifid for contributing so much to this update.
