Baby's First Space Race updated to version 1.1
Removed Mystcraft. I was using it to make a cosmetic lobby dimension for the planned competition, but decided I could just throw the lobby somewhere in The Overworld, or in a spatial storage dimension.
Removed Tinkers Steelworks. The game was slowing down when interacting with the high furnace, and the steps towards building it were too tedious for the proposed competition time. Feedback confirmed it was a speed bump.
Updated CoFH and Thermal Expansion libraries particularly to try to take advantage of new oregen changes. Did not matter, but it's possible an even newer release will allow me to place more glowstone in the way I prefer.
Replaced the High Furnace steelmaking process with the TE Induction Smelter process.
Turned the "Tools and Toys" section into a two-page spread with extra fill-in quests for things like hammers.
Switched quest book detection for machines to NBT-independent. Now they should detect the machines you craft.
Added back in quest requirements for the actual Tinkers Construct tools. NBT-independence allowed me to detect them properly.
Made the steel ingot requirement for the steel quest use ore dictionary, with the ingot being the Artifice ingot that TE is generating. It wasn't detecting the steel!
Added more vanilla quests.
Added surface lava pools in The Overworld. ATG was not generating enough surface lava, or enough lava period. Now there are lava ponds, with basalt partially encrusting them. By the way, ATG is the intended terrain generator.
Refined extra clay generation. ATG can be scarce with clay, but now some sand will turn into clay right below sea-level in non-arid biomes.
Added quests for alternative methods of generating obsidian in order to build the Nether Portal earlier. I am trying to encourage Nether chaos early and often.
Adjusted nether ore explosion rates so that you get something close to Centralia, but not a runaway chain explosion. Nether Ores are common enough now that these chain explosions are actually kind of entertaining, and can be a clever way to pick up ores like diamonds where you don't have a pick that can handle it. The two new quest paths are channeling lava into the smeltery, or using MFR straws to ... form obsidian in your mouth.
Added speed upgrade awards along the digital miner progression so you don't have to stare at the machines.
Nerfed infernal mobs a little more (took out bulwark). Reduced HP multiplier. Replaced all their loot with various novelty items like jetpacks, OpenBlocks fun stuff, Extra Utilities fun stuff, and various AE2 pieces. No, I don't know why that infernal skeleton was carrying around a molecular assembler! Hopefully when you see an infernal mob now, you'll think "Yaaay!" and charge it. None of the loot should directly affect the planned competition.
Added more wool rewards earlier because the circuit fabricator in galacticraft needs some wool, and I don't anticipate most people having it when they get there.
Added quest chapter notes.
