NotEnoughItems MEGA

Fork of the GTNewHorizons NotEnoughItems Unofficial, with pack-specific changes for the MEGA modpack. Please use the GTNH forks in your pack, as this fork has functionality changes that don't really fit outside MEGA.

MEGA changes

• Migrated to unified buildscript
• Moved some of the API calls from GTNHLib to Blendtronic to reduce number of dependencies

Branch structure

• master
  • Pack-specific changes that may be divergent from upstream. Based on upstream/migrated-buildscript.
• migrated-buildscript
  • Full feature parity with upstream with simple migrations: Buildscript swap, GTNHLib -> Blendtronic, CCC from MEGA maven.
• upstream-tracking
  • The latest dev branch from the GTNH NEI repo that the repo is managed against. Usually the master branch from GTNH.

After the initial branch creations, EVERY upstream merge to the above branches MUST be done via merge commits. DO NOT rebase.

Versioning scheme

To avoid divergence, we use an upstream-tracking "differential" versioning scheme:

• GTNH release: 2.7.0-GTNH
• First MEGA release: 2.7.0-mega
• Second MEGA release: 2.7.0-mega2
• GTNH updates: 2.7.1-GTNH
• Third MEGA release (not yet rebased): 2.7.0-mega3
• Fourth MEGA release (after rebase): 2.7.1-mega
• and so on...

GTNH changes below

New Features:

• Speed
  • Uses a parallel stream to search the item list over multiple cores, resulting in 2-6x faster searches on average
  • Loads the recipe handlers in parallel
• A textbox for search with most of the features you'd expect - moving forward, backwards, selection, etc
• Bookmarks! Are you in the process of crafting? Bookmark it using either 'A' or configure your own key.
• Toggle bookmark pane. Default shortcut key B. Item Subsets menu is only available if bookmarks are not visible.
• Utility/Cheat buttons line up and wrap based on GUI size
• ItemList is no longer regenerated from the ItemRegistry on every inventory load
• JEI (Or Creative) Style tabs [Optional] Note: Requires explicit support to be added for an ItemStack to render, otherwise falls back to the first two letters of the handler name.
• Tabs/Handlers are loaded from a CSV config in the JAR (or optionally from the config folder). NBT IMCEvents registerHandlerInfo and removeHandlerInfo are available for mod authors to add handler information, using the same fields as the CSV file
• @[Mod]->[item] searching. ex: @Mod.gregtech->iron ingot
• Cycle between Recipe, Utility, and Cheat mode by ctrl clicking on the Wrench Icon
• GT5u Tools/Items and GT6 tools should now properly work with the Overlay Recipe Transfer

Information Page Handler

Want to add some information about a block or item without making a massive tooltip for it? You can add information about any block or item by registering it in the Information Handler.

Information page(s) are displayed when either the uses or recipes of a matching item are searched. All matching items will cycle at the top of the information page.

Your mod can call:

FMLInterModComms.sendMessage("NotEnoughItems", "addItemInfo", nbt);

Where nbt is an NBTTagCompound formatted as described below.

Tag	Type	Description
filter	String	A string filter to match what items should return this information page. modname:itemname, metadata, Ore Dictionary tags, and regex can all be used. The full format may be seen in config/NEI/collapsibleitems.cfg.
page / pages	String / String NBTTagList	The actual text to display. See below for differences between single and multi-page messages. Both formats will automatically translate provided strings.

Single Page Format

Use the "page" string tag when you only want to add one page of information:

NBTTagCompound tag = new NBTTagCompound();
tag.setString("filter", "minecraft:log 3");
tag.setString("page", "Exotic wood found in tropical climates.");

FMLInterModComms.sendMessage("NotEnoughItems", "addItemInfo", tag);

Multiple Page Format

Use the "pages" tag as an NBTTagList of strings when you want more than one page:

NBTTagCompound tag = new NBTTagCompound();
tag.setString("filter", "minecraft:diamond_sword");

NBTTagList pages = new NBTTagList();
pages.appendTag(new NBTTagString("A powerful melee weapon."));
pages.appendTag(new NBTTagString("Can be enchanted for extra effects."));

tag.setTag("pages", pages);

FMLInterModComms.sendMessage("NotEnoughItems", "addItemInfo", tag);

• Each list entry is one page.
• Pages will appear in NEI with buttons to scroll through them.

Item Matching

All items that match filter will show your information page. See config/NEI/collapsibleitems.cfg for the full filter format.

Item Information Config File

If you're a modpack creator and want to make custom item information pages, they can easily be added in config/NEI/informationpages.cfg, which has a few more examples.

Other items of note:

• Remove TMI style
• Removed inventory Load/Save state
