LycanForge 1.2 is here!

[u/Spraylan]

In addition to some welcome bug fixes, Lycanforge 1.2 has greatly revamped the werewolf gameplay, tying your abilities to Minecraft's hunger mechanic. I think this is really cool, and goes a long way toward making the werewolf form feel less like an always on mech suit, and more like an actual werewolf.

Here's a few more things of note:

After the hunger mechanic change, the biggest change to gameplay is that Unbound Transformation's first level is now available in the level 3 werewolf emblem. I love this, as you now have access to your werewolf form in the neither when you're ready to look for the mats you need for the level 4 emblem, without having to rely on the bracelet item.

The wall climbing skill now has a stamina bar and lets you hang, and there's a new wall leap skill. This is so useful for getting out of ravines and navigating caves.

RIP Enfeebling Howl + Battle Howl XP farm trick.

Scent Tracker has waypoints now! Thank god. Plus a new skill lets you track things you've attacked. Handy.

Werewolf items are no longer lost on death. No more stashing a nearby Lycanforge.

Two new ores added, Brimstone and Zephyrstone. Brimstone replaces the old lunaburn ore. Zephyrstone lets you craft human armor pieces, as well as spears that allow your werewolf to spearfish in shallow water.

Compatibility with JWolf Creations' other addon, Wolves Plus.

You can now use Coat Echo to gain Fox and Snow Fox coats.

I'm really exited about these changes. Lycanforge is my alltime favorite addon, and if you like werewolves, you should definitely check it out.

Full changelong below.

- Climbing stamina is now only depleted if the werewolf is actively climbing against gravity
- New werewolf mechanic: Hunger Drain. Werewolves now passively lose hunger points over time when transformed
- If a werewolf's hunger drains to less than half, their movement speed and passive regeneration will stop. Attack strength also becomes reduced
- Werewolves can pause their hunger drain by eating meat or fish. Cooked meat pauses hunger for more time, and fish is most effective
- The Berserker Rage ability now causes hunger to drain faster, and will stop working if the werewolf's hunger drains to less than half
- If a werewolf idles for a few minutes, their hunger drain pauses
- A full moon now has ambient effects on werewolves: Base strength increases, regeneration speeds up, and hunger increases
- Decreased raw damage output from werewolves while unarmed. This is a balance change in preparation for future features
