871ded6e6a Increase prospector's charge capacity
The low capacity of the prospector turned out to be annoying, while the
other limitations do not substantially detract from fun.  Also adjust
recipe to include a blue energy crystal, to explain the source of the
charge capacity.

78128fd49a Tweak energy crystal recipes
Use silver instead of gold in the recipe for the red energy crystal,
and mithril instead of gold in the recipe for the blue energy crystal.
This provides more appreciable steps in the expense of the upgrades,
which were too similar, and in particular makes the blue energy crystal
less ridiculously cheap.

5ec2d10dbc Vary cable insulation type with tier
LV cables are now paper-insulated, rather than uninsulated (which made
no sense).  MV cables are rubber-insulated as before.  HV cables are now
plastic-insulated (which they already visually appeared to be).  MV and
HV cables are still crafted by adding insulation onto lower-tier cable,
rather than by insulating raw copper; this matches the way machines are
upgraded between tiers rather than crafted afresh.

430b310eb4 Machine casing item
The casing is intended to be an ingredient in craft recipes for machines.
It isn't actually used in any recipes yet.  Although mainly a craft
item, it is defined as a node type, mainly to get an appropriately cubic
inventory image.  It is incidentally possible to place it as a node:
this makes some sense, although the empty machine casing isn't actually
useful as a node.

636b0f20df Handheld prospecting tool
The new tool will say whether a target block type is present in a
specified region, to allow for more targeted digging.  It is deliberately
quite weak, with several limitations: only stores enough charge for a
small number of shots; target can only be set by pointing at an example
node; range is limited; accuracy is less than 100%.  Some of these
limitations should probably be ameliorated, but not entirely eliminated,
in the future when we have a better idea of game balance.

The inventory image is only a placeholder.

2d6f34df15 Better forcefield control dialog
The size configuration is no longer cleared when exiting the dialog with

The name of the toggle button now varies according to state, so that
pressing the button multiple times in one state (which can arise due
to lag making the user unsure about whether the first press registered)
only makes the state change that the user requested, rather than toggling
repeatedly.

4ea213c1e0 Reduce mithril chest to gold chest size
Due to concerns about form appearance, reduce mithril chest size to avoid
its form exceeding screen height.  This reduces it to the same size as
the gold chest.  Having two chest types of the same size looks silly now,
but will be reasonable as soon as mithril chests get their long-planned
special features.

96ad67b9ef Buff chest sizes
Make the inventory sizes of all the technic chests larger, to provide
a more appreciable benefit from upgrading chests, more in keeping with
the resources spent on the upgrades.

Currently the game engine doesn't handle large forms well.  The size
of an inventory slot is fixed relative to the screen height, and a
form that exceeds either screen dimension will extend off the screen,
making parts of it inaccessible.  The tallest a form can get and remain
usable is 13 slots, and even that slightly overspills the screen height.
The maximum usable width depends on the screen aspect ratio.  For the
narrowest common ratio, 5:4, the widest a form can usably get is 15 slots,
again slightly overspilling.  Combined with the layout of the chest forms,
this implies a maximum practical chest inventory size of 15x7 (= 105),
slightly smaller than the largest Minecraft chests.

To provide roughly equal size steps in the five upgrades from wooden
chest (staying at 8x4 = 32) to mithril chest, the steps need to be of
about 15 slots instead of the former 4.  The new sizes are:

    wooden   8x4  32
    iron     9x5  45
    copper  12x5  60
    silver  12x6  72
    gold    15x6  90
    mithril 15x7 105

To make upgrading from the old chest sizes to the new sizes more
convenient, the inventory size is now set not only upon chest construction
but also when accepting form input, at the same time as rewriting
the formspec.  So after upgrading the technic mod, viewing an existing
chest upgrades it to the new size.  The first time a pre-existing chest
is viewed its form will have the old dimensions, looking broken due
to the inventory background image now having the new number of slots.
The second time it is viewed the form will have the new dimensions,
and the full new number of slots will be usable.

c394984ae5 Handle lag better in drill
If a mining drill is apparently applied to a non-pointable node, do
nothing rather than drilling as normal.  This situation usually arises
from lag, where the news of a node having been drilled didn't reach the
user quickly enough and the user thereby applied the drill twice to the
same node.  The second drill attempt would formerly consume charge and
then find that all the nodes it wanted to dig had already been removed.

7c4b7046cc Rationalise machine terminology
All electrically-powered machines now consistently indicate their
tier (supply voltage) in their names.  As this implies that they are
electrically powered, the furnaces no longer have "Electric" in their
names.  The fuel-fired equivalents of electric machines, which exist
for alloy furnace and furnace, now say "Fuel-Fired" to distinguish them.
(The fuel-fired alloy furnace used to say "Coal", which was inaccurate
because it uses any fuel.  The fuel-fired furnace, from the default mod,
used to just be called "Furnace", which is ambiguous.)

Electric power generators now consistently indicate their tier and have
the word "Generator" in their names.  This makes their purpose much
clearer, and makes obvious craft guide searches produce useful results.
The fuel-fired generators, previously just (ambiguously) called
"Generator", are now explicitly "Fuel-Fired".

23603e7f41 Full glooptest support
To support the glooptest mod (successor of gloopores), define the
gloopores lump->dust grinding recipes if either of the mods is available.
(Formerly only "gloopores" was supported.)  Define kalite dust item,
which was previously missing.  Make gloop ingots grindable to dust as the
non-gloop ingots already are; incidentally refactor this to automatically
make ingots grindable whenever the ingot can be made by cooking dust.
Add textures for all the gloop dusts.  Do the "Steel"->"Iron" renaming
for glooptest-defined tools and items.

4d20e4473e Stop quarry duplicating items
The quarry was digging via dig_node and also manually putting the node's
drops into the tube system.  This assumed that dig_node would attempt
to put the drops in the player's inventory, doing nothing if there is
no such inventory.  With the item_drop mod installed, dig_node would
instead turn the node into an item entity, so the quarry's strategy would
duplicate the item, making it appear both as an item entity in situ and
as an item in the tube.  Instead, the quarry must use remove_node when
it manually processes the drops, just like the pipeworks node breaker.

68b7bcc28e split default iron/steel into three metals
Override the default mod's iron/steel substance, replacing it with three
metals: wrought iron (pure iron), carbon steel (iron alloyed with a little
carbon), and cast iron (iron alloyed with lots of carbon).  Wrought iron
is easiest to refine, then cast iron, and carbon steel the most difficult,
matching the historical progression.  Recipes that used default steel are
changed to use one of the three, the choice of alloy for each application
being both somewhat realistic and also matching up with game progression.

The default:steel{_ingot,block} items are identified specifically with
wrought iron.  This makes the default refining recipes work appropriately.
Iron-using recipes defined outside technic are thus necessarily
reinterpreted to use wrought iron, which is mostly appropriate.
Some objects are renamed accordingly.

Rather than use the default steel textures for wrought iron, with technic
providing textures for the other two, technic now provides textures for
all three metals.  This avoids problems that would occur with texture
packs that provide default_steel_{ingot,block} textures that are not
intended to support this wrought-iron/carbon-steel/cast-iron distinction.
A texture pack can provide a distinct set of three textures specifically
for the situation where this distinction is required.

Incidentally make grinding and alloy cooking recipes work correctly when
ingredients are specified by alias.
