Fixed

• Absolutely terrible oversight in the serialisation and deserialisation of wires. Wires should no longer turn pink / disappear after paste or load. This should also fix a whole bunch of other problems to do with the serialisation of specific objects.
• An awful design flaw to do with continuous activation signals. This should not introduce any unexpected behaviour unless you expect something to be broken. Some contraptions may rely on this inconsistency, and they will break. Most contraptions will benefit from this and behave a lot more consistently. It should also reduce (pretty much eliminate) activation signal limit warnings.
• Improved fast moving wire performance

• More intense bullet metal impact sounds
• If set to "Drain", the blood tank can now spill into other containers. This means you can finally make a nitro-glycerine shower. It can also spill onto non-container objects, but this will not transfer the liquid effects onto that surface.

• Lava pool to Hybrid
• Buttons have a double trigger mode
• Underwater objects may transfer charge to other near underwater objects
• Tempered glass pane
• You can hold M (can rebind) while using pins to snap to the center of mass of the underlying object. This is useful for things like putting pins in the exact center of wheels. It also magically allows you to put pins outside the object. This may be extended to other tools in the future, but it's just pins for now. It's pins.
• Liquid container pressure now travels through valves and such. This may introduce some unfamiliar, however correct, behaviour.
• ModAPI.OnLinkCreated and ModAPI.OnPinCreated events. The modding wiki is being worked on intensely so these events may not be documented for a while. They are invoked when a link device is created (currently only the phase link) and when a pin is created, respectively.
• Partial proper documentation: https://www.studiominus.nl/ppg-modding/internalReference.html. It isn't completely done yet so there may be some issues. Not everything has an explanation yet but I have done the most important parts.

Changed

• Default value for "Liquid overflow limb exploding" setting is now "Disabled"

• Made the "Pacifist" achievement less strict.

• Center of mass indicator bugs
• Resized wings violating the laws of physics
• Incorrect layering of worm staff worms
• Syringe and other stabby item problems to do with limb crushing and disintegration
• Pink enhancing serum can no longer weaken limbs
• Major water bugs (this changes the WaterBehaviour significantly and if your mod depends on this then it will break)

Removed

• That "Made it easier to grab moving objects while following them" thing because it actually made things less easy

[1.19.2] - June 28 2021

Added

• Setting to disable liquid-overflow-limb-explosion

Changed

• Syringes won't push liquid into a limb if it already has some in it

Fixed

• Drastically decreased the capacity of the tank in a car
• Made humans a little stronger
• Atom bombs glow a bit
• Beings don't start panicking the moment they're under water
• Rewrote limb connectedness system. For mods, this means that CirculationBehaviour.IsConnectedToMainBody and CirculationBehaviour.IsDisconnected are obsolete (still available with behaviour unchanged). Use Limb.NodeBehaviour.IsConnectedToRoot instead.

• Weird spawn silhouette delay bug

Removed

[1.19] - June 19 2021

Added

• Hold the spawn key when spawning contraptions to see their silhouette before placing them down. This only applies to all contraptions saved in or after this version. This also applies to copying/pasting using the shortcuts.
• Empty syringes can push, pull, or be idle. Just like the blood tank.
• Limbs no longer have an upper bound on their liquid capacity.
• Liquid identifying machine. It displays the make up of its contents.
• Blood tank context menu options for each mode
• Gate "max power" property that you can set using the context menu.
• Minor details to most maps
• Brightness setting

Changed

• The entire syringe system. This will destroy all syringe mods created before this version. All syringe behaviour is now based on liquids. Syringes are liquid containers and every syringe effect is the result of foreign liquid entering the circulation. All syringes, except the empty syringe, are infinite. Attention to modders: you can derive from "OldSyringeBehaviour" instead of "SyringeBehaviour" if you want to keep using the old system.
• Almost all spawnable item thumbnails
• Map ambience is now stereo

Changed

• Rewrote most Steam integration, mod loading, and contraption loading to be done in the background. This should fix the phenomenal startup times if you have hundreds of mods. Do note, however, that I can't control what modders make their mods do upon loading. Some mods may still freeze the game and there's nothing I can do to prevent that.
• This update will forcibly recompile all your installed mods. If you have lots of them, this will take a while. This will only happen once, though.
• Also switched to Facepunch's C# implementation of Steamworks which you won't really notice.

• Ambient temperature input permanently blocking user input
• Strange Tesla coil business
• Tank barrel displacement issues
• Phenomenal startup times if you have hundreds of Workshop subscriptions
• Infinite android "blood" amount
• A bug where you sometimes couldn't delete a contraption
• Other minor bugs that nobody hopefully noticed

[1.17.3] - May 16 2021

Removed

• OKAY I REMOVED THE BUG REPORT FORM. Jesus Christ. What is wrong with all of you. Within the first hour of releasing the update, I had to IP ban an embarrassing amount of people. As a side note, please uninstall Sanguinem Triae because about 50% of all the reports I received were caused by it. No offense to its creator, but this is a disaster.

Do note that creating an infinite signal loop will still slow your game down, it just won't freeze anymore.
