# Beetlebox 1.1.0 Changelog ## mechanics ### Beetle Breeding - requires a Candle and a Flower, and two beetles placed in tank - once Larva is produced, it can be collected into Larva Jar - resultant Larvae will take an assortment of traits from both parents - Larvae rearing requires patience. the Beetlepack and Incubator can help. ### Beetle Taming - requires two (unique) Logs, any Jelly Cup, a Mushroom, and a beetle placed in tank - once the beetle eats the jelly five times, it will becomes tames - once Larva is produced, it can be collected into Larva Jar - the type of Mushroom used determine the class of the resulting tamed beetle: Red Mushrooms create Infantry Beetles, and Brown Mushrooms create Projectile Beetles. --- ## machines ### NEW: Incubator - speeds up Larva growth - 6 slots for Larva Jars ### REMADE: Beetle Tank - allows for beetle taming and breeding - all operations require a Substrate base - has additional slots for decor ### TWEAKED: Boiler - 2000mb max, 250mb usage ### REMOVED: Legendary Tank - doesn't have any real purpose as is, and needs a substantive rewrite before it will work with the new tank mechanics --- ## tools ### NEW: Beetlepack - backpack for your bugs - opens with configurable keybind ('b' by default) - occupies chest slot, or back slot if Trinkets is installed - 6 slots for Beetle/Larva Jars - deploys tamed beetles - in combat, as either Infantry or Projectiles (depending on beetle class) - Infantry Beetles attack like regular mobs, as ground units - once the beetles close in, this can deal heavy damage, but leave your bugs susceptible to damage - Projectile Beetles fire like a projectile for a single hit, then return - projectile beetles enjoy invulnerability, but cooldowns make this a slower tactic against larger targets - alongside Elytra flight (they like the view) - deploys tamed beetles - speeds up Larva growth (slower than Incubator, but faster than unaided) ### NEW: Larva Jar - Beetle Jar full of Substrate - stores a Larva while it grows - rewards Beetle Husks upon Larva maturity ### NEW: Substrate - wood mix for bug keeping --- ## quality of life - added tooltips to some confusing items - wild beetles have normally-distributed stats --- ## disclaimer i've been working on this update since mammoths walked the Earth, so i may have missed some minor updates. hit my line in the Discord or elsewhere if you have any qwuestions!
