Monster 1.0.5 and Mimicry

[Shevron]

I have noticed something weird with Mimicry since I updated from 1.0.3 to 1.0.5.

All mimicry ores in the nether, turned from a normal mineable mimicry ore, into blocks, which when processed yield stacks and stacks of the stuff!

While I'm not a person that whines about balance, and mimicry has pulled me out crap plenty of times (enderpearls anyone?) this is waaaay out there with the one-sided balance tipping to OP.

Sitting on a normal ledge in the Nether, i can see hundreds and hundreds of stuff in the distance.

Is this on purpose, or someone missed something?

I think it may be related to a particular update from Mimicry...

"[1/6/14_1.3.5]"
"fixed my derp of blacklisting all blocks from mimikinetics; the Upheaver works now"
"consolidated the first 6 block ids into 1 id with 3 meta ids; there are now only 3 block ids in Mimicry;nether will need to be reset with this update"
"added load order support for a few more mods"

I like Mimicry, alot, especially with enderpearls, but it really needs some serious finetuning for it to be in a modpack with other mods...

Does just deleting the dimension (-1) have it reset, or I'd break the world but simply removing it?

deleting the nether dimension shouldn't be causing too much problems... do note you'll lose all your content in the nether, so you better remove your blocks/machines from the nether before doing this

Yeah I know

Already informed the server players to start dismantling their pumps and stuff. I just wanted to make sure that deleting DIM -1 will just regenerate, instead of slapping me with a huge error and breaking the world.

Quite sorry about that. I feel it had to be done. A mod this simple should not be wasting 6 block ID's with 1 block type. As far as the balance concerns, Configs are being added each update or so for better control over balance.

Nether has been reset, and all is well.
