Changelog 1.2.0 – Summary

Core Architecture & Performance

• Signal channels are now fully independent, preventing cross-channel interference.
• Mixins are restricted to Redstone-type blocks, improving compatibility with modded blocks.
• Cobalt Energy Blocks can now properly power modded redstone blocks in situations where this was previously impossible.
• Chunk data is now cached locally, reducing repeated chunk lookups during updates.
• Signal transmission data is stored at the Level/BlockState level instead of per class, reducing memory usage.
• Overall performance has been significantly improved, especially for large wire networks, resulting in less overhead and fewer lag spikes.

Cobalt Wires

• Completely redesigned architecture for improved performance.
• Fixed multiple visual issues when placed on non-sturdy block faces.
• Improved update handling and consumer behavior.
• Expanded compatibility with modded blocks that rely on standard redstone APIs.

Cobalt Rails

• Fully reworked structure and updated texture.
• Reclassified as a Cobalt Energy Block (CEB).
• Can now receive energy only from other Cobalt Energy Blocks.

Cobalt Relays

• Reworked architecture and inherited the same stability fixes as Cobalt Wires.
• No longer interact with torches or blocks attached to their sides.
• Can only transfer power vertically (up and down).
• Only connect and transfer energy with Cobalt Wires and compatible Cobalt Energy Blocks.

Converter

• Received a major overhaul.
• Introduced the new FLOWING_SIDE property to track the direction of energy flow.
• Fixed the energy-loss bug that occurred during energy-type conversion.
• Resolved all feedback-loop issues.
• Fixed update and signal transmission bugs that could temporarily power adjacent blocks.
• No longer plays its activation sound when waterlogged.

Cobalt Torches

• Received the same bug fixes and stability improvements as Cobalt Wires.

Cobalt Repeaters & Comparators

• Now share a more unified implementation.
• Use the same optimized signal-processing system as Cobalt Wires for improved efficiency.

Cobalt Dust Block

• Updated texture to better match the appearance of powered Cobalt Wires.
