• Magic Shroom Swords now come in multiple colors. Red, green, and blue
• Bone Shotgun has an alt ability: Bloody Vomit

• New 'on a plate' sprites for Coffee, Flat White, Mocha, Carrot/Kiwi/Cactus/Tomato/Grape/Pineapple/Avesmingo/Toxic/Ultimate/Alien Fruit/Reef Juice, Automato/Reef Shake, Sweet/Tropical Punch, Hot Hot Hotpot, Meatballs, Milk, Bolted Milk, Whiskey/Rootpop Flask, Orangenergy/Wine/Cordial Glass, Bloody Puss, Ham Sandwich

• Removed some of Betabound's object resprites that Nuggubs's Vanilla Texture Pack does a better job with (metal crate, primitive crate, market clothes stall, wrecked crate, market weapon stall)

- Equipment
• Swinging Vine and Slime Hand Grapple now have landing sound effects
• Grappling Hook now visibly has a hook in the muzzle until you shoot it
• Altered Force Field tech description to make it clearer how it differs from the Shield tech
• Betabound will no longer attempt to stack blueprints if OpenStarbound is installed, because it makes blueprints stackable.
• Certain items are now visually held (GPS, Time-Telling Wrist Mechanism (now known as Watch), Health Monitor, Portable Radio, Toxic Flower (now known as Photosynthesis Panel), Survival System, All-Seeing Cape, Portable 3D Printer)
• Renamed Toxic Flower (held item) to Photosynthesis Panel, changed description and inventory icon
• Removed Automatic Parachute Pack as it was redundant with the wearable Parachute Pack and the Parasol item. Any existing copies of this item will be replaced with suitable replacement items.
• Rename Time-Telling Wrist Mechanism to Watch. The description is still extremely redundant (intentionally so), I think it's better to have the joke in the description. Plus, it was actually known as the 'Time-Telling W. M." in-game because its name was so long. Anyway, thanks for coming to my TED talk!

-=- Recipes -=-
