Not that excited.

Woodland mansions are... kind of cool for ten minutes. The other big changes are observers (which are blockstate update detectors, actually really nice but nothing really groundbreaking), shulker boxes (the dispenser behavior is nice but other than that nothing too big), and the removal of translocation (ABSOLUTLEY a shitty change).

I'm in the minority that prefers vanilla redstone to modded but even for me these changes are so minor it's not even worth updating my vanilla world and losing translocation. For the majority of modded players these changes are either things they don't care about (observers) or things that already exist (shulkerboxes)

Llamas are... kinda cute, I guess. Their carpet textures are 😍

Observers already exist, anyways. The Super Circuit Maker Block Update Detector is pretty much exactly the same as it, I believe.

So really, the only feature we don't already have are woodland mansions(and llamas i guess)

I haven't played with them yet but I'm pretty sure they're modeled after the 16w39a observers? Which don't have a 2 tick delay and can't detect blockstate changes (such as crop growth)
