Time Vortex (TARDIS)

# 1.0.10 ## Demat / remat ~3s shorter each Playtest feedback: fades felt about three seconds long after wall-clock lock. - Demat: **20.062s → 17.062s** (341 ticks) - Remat: **24.007s → 21.007s** (420 ticks) - Flight phase unchanged (~20s) Full auto-land trip ≈ **58s** at 20 TPS (plus throttle latency).

# Changelog - v1.0.8 ## TARDIS travel timing (sound-locked + chunks) ### Sound lengths (ffprobe) - Demat **20.06 s** (401 ticks) - Flight **20.06 s** (401 ticks) - Remat **24.01 s** (480 ticks) ### Fixes - Single source of truth: `FlightTimings` shared by exterior entity + interface. - Flight budget was **10 s**; now matches **flight_sound** (~20 s). - Proto demat was **10 s** / jump stack could hit multi-minute; demat/flight use sound lengths, distance add is **capped** (~30 s max extra). - Force-load exterior + destination chunks during demat / flight / remat so anims don’t stall when no players are near the box. - Play `flight_sound` once when demat completes (EUC path). - EUC mid-flight blip interval ≈ `euc_flight_sound` length. ### Expected simple auto-land trip ≈ **64 s** wall-clock at 20 TPS (demat + flight + remat), not multi-minute. No automatic server deploy in this change set.

# Changelog - v1.0.7 ## Capability Fixes and ComputerCraft Support ### Energy Cables (Interface) - Restored Forge Energy exposure on the Vortex Interface for NeoForge 1.21.1. - Cables from Mekanism, Pipez, Powah, and other FE providers can connect and charge the Interface again. ### Item Transfer - Registered item handler capabilities for the Size Manipulator, Scanner, and Keypad so hoppers and item pipes can interact with their inventories. ### CC: Tweaked - Finished Vortex Interface peripheral registration (`peripheral.wrap` type: `vortex_interface`). - Computers can use the existing Lua API: power, throttle, coords, dimension, flight state, exterior sign, and related getters. - Declared ComputerCraft as an optional dependency. ### Stability - Fixed Scanner crashes when scanning outside the TARDIS dimension or without a nearby Interface. - Fixed Scanner GUI data sync so exterior preview values reach the client. - Hardened TARDIS entity lookups against invalid entity types. - Guarded network/connection and bioscanner renderer edge cases that could crash with no players online.

# Changelog - v1.0.6 ## TARDIS Polish and Fixes ### Core Logic & Animations - **Animation Synchronization**: Replaced increment-based travel time with a fixed constant system. Dematerialization is now **strictly** 20 seconds, and Rematerialization is **strictly** 24 seconds, driven by a fixed 20 TPS clock rather than standard world tick speed. - **Fixed Travel Time**: TARDIS travel now takes a fixed duration (30 seconds total) unless the destination chunk needs time to load. - **Travel Safety**: Added a check to prevent initiating dematerialization if the TARDIS is already at the target location. - Users will now receive a "Already at target location" message instead of wasting energy/time. ### Block Entities & UI - **Monitor Priority Swap**: Changed the default display for the Monitor. - **Powered (Active)**: Now shows **Exterior Info** (Your current location and status). - **Unpowered (Idle)**: Now shows **Target Info** (Your set destination and estimates). - **Keypad Data Persistence**: Fixed a bug where saved locations would vanish after traveling or reloading the world. Locations are now properly saved to the block's NBT. - **Keypad UI Reformatting**: Updated the saved location list to be more readable. - New format: `Name (X Y Z) | Dimension` (e.g., `Home (100 64 -200) | overworld`). - Improved selection logic to correctly handle the new format when clicking list entries.

### Diagnostics - **Deep Logging**: Added extensive server-side logging for TARDIS dematerialization and flight sequences. This is to help debug issues where the TARDIS gets stuck in the dematerialization phase on servers.
