Changelog

1.0.0

• First public release of the standalone H3ZM LaserMine, with the custom mine and swappable LM-B1 battery.
• Includes the reviewed placement, ARM/SAFE controls, battery gauge, hand and quickbelt poses, audio, and configurable damage and energy settings.
• Includes the final 3x cyan zap-contact effect with a bright white core and a 4 m pooled flash, lasting at most 200 ms.
• Adds the approved cover, H3VR Homebrew feedback link, credits and Ko-fi support information.

0.9.2

• Add pooled cyan forked discharges at zap contacts, enlarged 3x overall after playtesting, with a 210 mm white core, a weaker second pulse and a 4 m flash using H3VR's shared low-priority light. The effect finishes within 200 ms.
• Set the ARM/SAFE switch sound to a 0.8 multiplier of the native click event.
• Restore the original reviewed mine/battery grip poses; remove the additional pitch introduced in 0.9.1. Keep laser-grab registration in raw controller space so filtered input cannot bake a temporary rotation difference into the held pose. Close grabs retain free orientation.
• Align batteries to all three axes of rectangular magazine pouches, with the label and charge bar on the inward-facing side. Head position no longer twists the pack across the slot.
• Remove the unreleased GitHub repository link from package metadata.

0.9.1

• Reduced placement volume by 50% (0.8 to 0.4), activation by 20% (0.4 to 0.32), and ARM/SAFE switch volume by 50% (native-event multiplier 0.65 to 0.325).
• Refined the default mine and battery grip pitch from the paired VR screenshots, preserving grip contact positions, yaw and free close-grab behavior.
• Batteries stand upright in magazine pouches with the label and charge bar facing the player. The native quickbelt pose is chosen on insertion, including left/right pouch orientation.
• Retained the reviewed package artwork/text, mine_charge startup clip and 500 energy per activation.

0.9.0

• Increased default EnergyPerCharge from 250 to 500: a fresh default-capacity battery now provides 20 activations before damage-related drain.
• Changed charge-up audio from suitchargeok1 to mine_charge at the existing 0.4 volume; applied reviewed package/battery wording and added the Utility search tag.
• Applied the reviewed mine and battery default laser-grab poses; close grabs remain free to follow the hand.
• Added the finished layered-cover exports for the package, item spawner and H3ZM shop, showing an active mine on a wall.
• Unified the H3ZM family naming, item descriptions and search tags; clarified standalone use and player damage in the README.
• Playtest polish: placement ray starts 20 mm inside the housing; outward reach reduced from 150 to 120 mm without moving the planted contact anchor.
• Enlarged printed lettering by approximately 20%; doubled SAFE/ARM decals and changed ARM to a brighter muted red. Mine inventory size changed from Medium to Large.
• Added native metal-magazine collision sounds, magazine handling sounds on insertion/removal and a quiet vanilla mechanical switch click.
• Placement thuck now plays for every successful placement, including SAFE or unpowered mines; energy-start feedback remains gated by power/ARM state.
• Reduced charging volume from 0.8 to 0.4, activation from 0.6 to 0.4, and zap from 0.5 to 0.325.
• Corrected doubled beam tint and changed amber from RGB (1, 0.45, 0.025) to (1, 0.60, 0.035); beam and emitter now change state color in the same frame.
• Accept contact-up batteries rotated 180 degrees and snap to the standard seated orientation.
• Extended confirmed native current/legacy empty-mag and all-mag cleanup to loose batteries, protecting held, quickbelted and seated packs.
• Added custom v06 mine art and the separate LM-B1 single-use battery.
• Added native-style battery seating, pull-out hot-swap, spawnlocking and saved charge.
• Added the physical ARM/SAFE switch, unified power states and revised status light.
• Added a cyan glowing emitter/lens and surface impact halo, with amber charging/recharge pulses and stun flashes.
• Fixed battery reinsertion after native Rigidbody recovery; verified with actual game trigger delivery.
• Added configurable charge cost, recharge delay, battery capacity, laser damage and resilience.
• Added DamagePlayer (enabled by default): native player damage once per charge window, sharing the normal energy cost/cooldown and respecting scene damage rules.
• Added the approved thin battery charge bar: faint green emission, yellow below 50%, red below 20%, and dark at empty. No numeric readout or new text.
• Added damage-to-energy drain and periodic release from moving or invalid supports.
• Added companion/related-item registration and targeted legacy crate compatibility.
• Added new mine and battery artwork.

0.1.3

• Added a configurable active damage period so multiple Sosigs can join one zap charge.
• Added green wrist-radar contacts for planted mines in Take and Hold.
• Added H3ZM disruption with a flashing cooldown indicator.

0.1.0

• Initial package scaffold.
