Dice & Delish

_This update provides the same features and bug fixes for both 1.21.1 and 1.21.3._

# Changelog **The mod formerly known as NerdSoft Kitchen is now Dice & Delish!** New mod ID (`dice_and_delish`), new item group, new banner and branding. This is a rename, not a fork - see the note at the bottom for what that means for existing worlds. A major content update centered on food prep and cooking variety, plus a new performance system. ### New Blocks - **Cutting Board** - place a cuttable ingredient, then cut it with knives - **Skillet** - fries eggs solo or turns them into Potato/Purple Onion Tortillas when a cut ingredient is added mid-cook; can be filled with raw egg liquid via the Iron Cup - **Rice crop** (+ wild variant) ### New Items - Full knife line: **Stone, Iron, Gold, Diamond, Obsidian (new tier), Netherite Knife** - **Cheese**, **Cheese Slice**, **Cheese Sandwich** (raw & toasted), **Grilled Cheese** - **Sandwich Bread** (raw & toasted) - **Cut Potato**, **Cut Purple Onion** - **Tortilla**, **Potato Tortilla**, **Purple Onion Tortilla** - **Rice**, **Rice Bowl**, **Cooked Rice** - **Egg Liquid** Iron Cup content ### New Recipes - Cutting Board: dicing raw chicken, slicing cheese, cutting potato and purple onion - Grill: toasted sandwich bread, grilled cheese, toasted cheese sandwich, cooked rice bowl - Skillet: fried egg, potato tortilla, purple onion tortilla - Iron Cup: draw and pour back raw egg liquid via the Skillet ### Grill Table Relighting - Extinguishing a lit Grill or Soul Grill (water, or a Shovel at 1 durability) now leaves behind a proper **Unlit Grill**/**Unlit Soul Grill** block instead of just going dark - relight it in place with Flint and Steel, a Fire Charge, or a flaming arrow, or craft it fresh with Blaze Powder (add Soul Sand/Soil to relight as Soul instead) ### Performance - New internal **LOD (level of detail) system** - Grill Table and Cutting Board render at reduced detail past configurable chunk-distance tiers, easing load in large builds and farms ### Audio/Visual - Cutting Board and Skillet block entity renderers, with sizzle looping audio for both - New **Hot Skillet** danger state - stepping on a hot Skillet burns the offending entity/player ### Advancements - Expanded advancement tree covering cutting, grilled cheese, tortillas, each crop harvest, knives, and a new capstone **"Gourmet Chef"** advancement for completing every discipline (farming, cutting, grilling, dairy) ### JEI - Added explicit category sort ordering - Fixed recipes silently failing to register with JEI on some launches - the mod's own recipe categories now reliably show up after loading into a world ### Localization - All new blocks, items, advancements, and JEI descriptions translated in both English and Spanish ### Internal / Refactors - The old **Curdle** recipe type (`CurdleRecipe`/`CurdleRecipeInput`) was removed and yogurt/strawberry-yogurt transformations are now handled through the mixing/cup-crafting recipe types instead - New `ModBlockTags` and `ModTiers` registries (the latter backing the new Obsidian tool tier) - Mod ID changed from `nerdsoftkitchen` to `dice_and_delish`; package changed from `com.nerdsoft.mods.nerdsoftkitchen` to `com.panzer.mods.dice_and_delish` > ⚠️ **Existing worlds:** because the mod ID and every registry name changed along with the rename, blocks/items placed under 0.3.0 will not migrate automatically - back up your world before updating, and expect to need a re-registration/rename data fix (or to start fresh) if you're carrying a save forward.
