Most of the port is pretty simple. The main problems are regarding
changes to Minecraft's rendering system.
- Remove several rendering tweaks until Forge's compatibility it
brought up-to-date
- Map rendering for pocket computers and printouts
- Item frame rendering for printouts
- Custom block outlines for monitors and cables/wired modems
- Custom breaking progress for cables/wired modems
- Turtle "Dinnerbone" rendering is currently broken, as normals are not
correctly transformed.
- Rewrite FixedWidthFontRenderer to to the buffer in a single sweep.
In order to do this, the term_font now also bundles a "background"
section, which is just a blank region of the screen.
- Render monitors using a VBO instead of a call list. I haven't
compared performance yet, but it manages to render a 6x5 array of
_static_ monitors at almost 60fps, which seems pretty reasonable.
- Languages are converted to JSON
- Rename most *(_advanced) blocks to *_{advanced,normal}. It's more
verbose, but means they're sorted together.
- A couple of changes to the ROM to work with some Java changes.
- Update recipes and advancements to not use damage values.
These act similarly to conventional wired modems, but with the advantage
that they are a full block. This means they can be attached to
peripherals which are not solid (such as chests). Further more, as they
do not have a direction, they allow wrapping peripherals on all 6 sides.
It's worth noting that wired modems do not require a cable - they will
automatically form connections to adjacent network elements when placed.
There was a very small gap between the turtle frame and the top of the
turtle body. This increases the height of the body by one pixel, adding
a little bit of overlap and ensuring the frame renders on top fixes
this issue.
- Lower case all model and texture names
- Move model registration code into preInit - this ensures we don't
get texture/model errors in the preInit stage.
This uses Minecraft's colour tinting system in order to change the
colour of turtle models. This removes the need to have 16 models and
textures for each colour, reducing texture atlas space and hopefully
memory consumption.

Updated the source code to the version shipped as the 1.80pr0 alpha
release. Also removed some unnecessary files from the LuaJ subfolder
which were bulking up the repository.
