4.1.0

🧜 Mermaids and Mythical Creatures v4.1.0 - Ready for Update 7, Plus Four New Bras

Built for the Update 7 pre-release (Hytale Server 0.7.0-pre.5.1), so your server is ready the day Update 7 lands.
4.1.0 needs an Update 7 server. Servers still on Update 6 (0.6.x) should stay on Mermaids 4.0.1 - 4.1.0 will not run there.
Back up your worlds before moving to Update 7. A world saved on the pre-release isn't guaranteed to open on Update 6 again - a Hytale change, not a Mermaids one.

Four new tops to wear with your tail, each in its own color, crafted at the Mermaids Workbench (Armor tab):

Starfish Bra - two plump sea stars on a pearl halter
Kelp Bandeau - golden kelp gathered under a coral sea star, strapless
Nautilus Bra - tiger-striped nautilus shells on a fine gold chain (tier 2 Workbench)
Siren Scale Bra - woven from shimmering Mermaid Scales and trimmed with pearls (tier 2 Workbench)
All four protect like the Seashell Bra (+250 Oxygen, +10 Health, 8% physical and projectile resistance) and have Wardrobe entries too.
The Seashell Bra has a new, much lighter model (22 parts instead of 54): the same ribbed scallop shells on a slimmer cord. Every Seashell Bra you already own updates by itself, in all ten dyes.

Update 7 changed how the game stores the world, so everything that reads the blocks around you was rebuilt: water for transforming and staying wet, rain shelter, the cauldron and mud transformation blocks, the vampire's water shelter from the sun, the Trident's tide boost, the Siren Song's lure, and where your companion appears.
Mermaids still never loads ground just to look at it, and while the ground under you is still loading (stepping into a dungeon, say) you aren't treated as on dry land, so drying out doesn't start early.

In Update 7, damage from a burn or poison counts as coming from whoever applied it. Mermaids keeps those ticks from counting as bites: a Vampire doesn't drink or lifesteal from every tick of a burn they started, and a Werewolf isn't hit by the silver multiplier on every tick of a poison. Both keep their 4.0.1 balance.
The death screen now says what got you: "You dried out on land!" or "You were burned to ash by the sunlight!" - in all four languages.
The Mermaids, Werewolf, Vampire and Lamia menus only return to the Mythical Creatures menu when you press Escape or Back - closed by the game or another mod, they stay closed.
The update notice no longer tells a server running a newer build than the latest listed release to "update"; the Info tab and /mermaids info agree with it.

Built for Hytale Server 0.7.0-pre.5.1 (Update 7 pre-release).
Works with Cultivation 0.11.0, also built for Update 7 - the Merfolk race and the Siren Song technique load as before.
Pair it with Mermaids Premium 1.6.0 and the free Mermaids v2 Tails 1.1.0, both built for Update 7 alongside this release.
The optional integrations (Orbis Origins, Endless Leveling, Wardrobe, the hunger and thirst mods and the rest) haven't changed - each needs its own Update 7 version to load on an Update 7 server.
Hytale retuned some of its own sounds in Update 7. The transformation chime, the Siren Song and the potion drink use them, so they play a little quieter now.

Want more tails, more companions, and more ways to be a mermaid? Mermaids Premium registers straight into the menus you already use - nothing new to open, nothing new to learn:
The Orca and Dolphin tails - whale flukes on the Curve Tail's body, with the orca's black-and-white markings or the dolphin's pale belly, and four whale fins of their own
215 tail colors across 13 palette families - on every Curve tail, the Orca and Dolphin, and the original tails from Mermaids v2 Tails
18 companion species across Reef, Drift and Shallows, on top of the base mod's own two
24 exclusive shimmers across four themed families and 7 curated tail presets
47 vampire skin colors and 3 extra vampire eye colors
5 full race lines for Endless Leveling - Mermaid, Werewolf, Vampire, Merfolk and Lamia (with the Venom Fangs passive)
