EmakiCooking | Seven World Stations for Immersive Cooking

EmakiCooking 3.0.0 Release

This release adds three new cooking stations (Oven, Juicer, Fermentation Barrel), a virtual display entity system, and heat source ignition, significantly expanding cooking gameplay.

New Features

• Oven: Temperature-sensitive cooking station. Players control heat by adding fuel; supports perfect bake, normal bake, and burnt results based on temperature management.
• Juicer: Press-based cooking station. Players press multiple times to extract fluid (measured in ml), then collect with a container. Supports fluid mode and direct output mode.
• Fermentation Barrel: Long-duration fermentation station. Supports early collection (partial product), normal completion, and over-fermentation (spoiled product). Progress persists across server restarts.
• Display Entity System: Cooking stations show floating item display entities above them. Three backends: auto, packet_events (virtual entities, no entity ID usage, better performance), bukkit (real ItemDisplay). Configurable view distance and refresh interval.
• Heat Source Ignition: Wok and steamer support ignite_heat_source to automatically light/extinguish heat source blocks when ingredients are added/removed. Works with CraftEngine, ItemsAdder, and Nexo custom blocks.
• PAPI Placeholders: %emakicooking_recipe_count% (total recipes) and %emakicooking_recipe_count_<station>% (per-station count).

Improvements

• Config and language files auto-merge new keys on upgrade.
• Fermentation barrel state uses dirty-flag batch persistence to reduce disk IO.
• All stations auto-drop contents when the block is broken.

Breaking Changes

• Station block sources changed from single block_source to list block_item_sources.
• Tool/spatula/heat source fields unified to *_item_sources list format.
• Steamer moisture rules renamed from moisture_sources to moisture_rules with updated sub-fields.
• All recipe input.source → input.item_sources (list), result.output.source → result.output.item_sources (list).
• Old built-in recipes removed; each station directory now has example_recipe.yml.

Upgrade Notes

• New station GUI templates and recipe directories are auto-created.
• PacketEvents display backend requires Minecraft 1.19.4+; auto-falls back to Bukkit on older versions.
• Config version updated to 4.0.0 with new station and display_entities configuration sections.
• Existing recipes must migrate source fields to item_sources list format — refer to each station's example_recipe.yml.
