Changes:

• Added: Rack mountable floppy disk drive.
• Added: Ability to interact with some item inventories using the inventory controller.
• Added: Support for RotaryCraft power (uses same conversion ratio as AE2).
• Added: Possiblity to define a viewport on GPUs, allowing to copy data from off-screen for performance trickery.
• Added: Cables will now remember which color they have and can also be dyed by being crafted with a dye.
• Added: Reenabled IC2 integration on 1.8.9.
• Added: Possibility to cycle through loot disks by crafting them with a wrench (wrench is not consumed).
• Added: Device info API. Devices may now provide generic information, queryable via computer.getDeviceInfo().
• Added: More helpful messages when trying to run a missing program (when possible) via the new computer.getProgramLocations() API.
• Added: Trading upgrade, allows trading with villagers (Inari-Whitebear).
• Added: Allow defining custom HTTP request headers (invliD).
• Added: debug.playSoundAt (gamax92).
• Added: Parameter to specify AE2 CPU to use when requesting crafting (habnabit).
• Added: ThaumicEnergistics integration (DrummerMC).
• Added: Dyeing of hover boots to change light color (Vexatos).
• Added: Network activity indicator on servers (magik6k).
• Added: Brazilian Portuguese translation (hws689).
• Changed: Racks have been revamped. They can now house other things than servers and how things get connected is a lot more flexible now.
• Changed: Remote terminals are now bound to remote terminal servers which are a new type of rack mountable.
• Changed: Disk drives now also provide a component allowing to check for floppy presence and ejecting floppies.
• Changed: Geolyzer scan area can now be customized to be an arbitrary cube instead of only columns. Total volume must not exceed column volume, though.
• Changed: A couple of recipes. Introduced diamond shards/chips to avoid the massive diamond cost ramping of higher tier items.
• Changed: New font for screens, unscii, sporting much better readability (asie). If you absolutely detest it even after giving it a fair chance, you can restore the old unifont one using a resource pack.
• Changed: OpenOS got a major overhaul, in particular term related things, and also a few new built-in programs (payonel). This would deserve a changelog of its own, really...
• Fixed: Pseudo-hangs when crafting a massive amount of a recipe that produces the same output as it has as input.
• Fixed: A few GregTech recipes and related issues.
• Fixed: Userdata handling in LuaJ.
• Fixed: Power conversion for a couple of mods, oops.
• Fixed: Performance issues caused by compressing data sent to clients too much.
• Fixed: Performance issues caused by disk I/O when sending machine descriptor packets to clients (thanks to Player for pointing those two out to me; we need more BTMs).
• Fixed: Updated LuaJ and fixed a few more bugs in it (gamax92).
• Fixed: Mystcraft integration (ItsTheKais).
• Fixed: Updated BC wrench integration.
• Fixed: Robots being able to suck up certain flowing fluid blocks (effectively a liquid dupe bug).
• Fixed: Generator eating container items if they weren't taken out in time.
• Fixed: Disassembling tablets not dropping upgrade containers installed in them.
• Fixed: Some broken saving logic in 1.8+ due to subtle lifecycle callback order changes.
• Fixed: Fixed MCUs passing out messages other than network messages.
• [API] Added: Added sided version of block drivers, deprecated non-sided one.
• [API] Added: Processors/Memory may now define a provided call budget.
• [API] Changed: Geolyzer related events due to custom scan area.
