-Added a new Piston Shovel block which may be crafted with 6 iron ingots in a stair shape. The details of its use are left for the player to discover.
-Added new Ladder blocks which are flammable and which can be dislodged by water or falling blocks. This does not affect already placed Ladder blocks so as not to mess with existing builds, but otherwise the new blocks replace the old.
-Added alternate Loose Cobblestone and Brick Stair recipes involving loose blocks of the corresponding variety, rather than just Brick and Stone items. This was done for consistency with other stair recipes.
-Added the ability to rotate a few additional blocks on the Turntable, like Powered Rails, Detector Rails, Shafts, Jack'O'Lanterns, and Stakes as part of the refactoring work described below.
-Added the ability to Silk Harvest various slabs, like grass and mycelium.
-Added conversion recipe from Bookshelves back to Books.
-Changed Chisels to not be efficient at harvesting stone once it has reached a certain damage level (once all the stone items have been harvested / pried loose, and the texture changes to its final level). This is to make early game tunneling less effective given recent increases to Chisel efficiency making it more viable than I had originally intended.
-Changed (refactored) the way block facing works internally for many blocks and how the Turntable rotates attached blocks to help make supporting additional block types easier.
-Changed Cactus to not be destroyed when hit by spider webs.
-Changed Bone and Flesh blocks to drop individual items of their type when in front of a Saw, rather than whole blocks.
-Changed Campfires to be crushed by falling blocks.
-Fixed problem where Snow Cover wasn't melting as intended near fires.
-Fixed a problem with falling Sand Slabs looking like gravel.
Exfoliate!
