    So far all that is known is the Diamond shard required for the labware.

    So, since MPT doesn't seem keen on releasing info, here's what i've found so far:
    • Imprinting, mutating, sampling, mutagen production is nearly instant
    • Power usage is down about 5x across the board, including industrial apiariesr
    • Mutagen production is now limited to bee specific items
      • Royal Jelly: 400 mB
      • Propolis: 200 mB
      • Pollen: 350 mB
      • Phosphor: 150 mB
    • Likewise, labware takes diamond shards (come from diamndi bees only) to craft (as leo mentioned), and craft 16

    Edit: more stuff
    • Imprinters now have a 0% chance of killing pristine bees, 45% for ignoble (I think)
    • Mutatron (advanced) has 5% kill chance for pristine, 35 ignoble

    Seems to be right from what I know about the changes. Granted, I can't say for sure. Pathaleon will be better able to say when he comes on Sunday.

    Also, for the record: Nobody has refused to release any information in regards to anything in this update. I have simply been busy dealing with other more important matters than posting every last detail in regards to an update to satisfy you.

    And for the record, I never said anyone refused. But since I heard 10 different people asking and no answers, I decided to figure it out myself.

    Just a heads up for people logging in: GregTech will unify ingots/dusts in your inventory to Greg Tech ingots/dusts, automatically.

    Literally just re-genning several configs to clean them up since some recent updates deprecated some settings, removing configs for old mods that aren't going to be re-added... just basic clean up. Nothing that affects gameplay.
