Hold the spawn key when spawning contraptions to see their silhouette before placing them down. This only applies to all contraptions saved in or after this version. This also applies to copying/pasting using the shortcuts.
Empty syringes can push, pull, or be idle. Just like the blood tank.
Limbs no longer have an upper bound on their liquid capacity.
Liquid identifying machine. It displays the make up of its contents.
Blood tank context menu options for each mode
Gate "max power" property that you can set using the context menu.
Minor details to most maps
Brightness setting

The entire syringe system. This will destroy all syringe mods created before this version. All syringe behaviour is now based on liquids. Syringes are liquid containers and every syringe effect is the result of foreign liquid entering the circulation. All syringes, except the empty syringe, are infinite. Attention to modders: you can derive from "OldSyringeBehaviour" instead of "SyringeBehaviour" if you want to keep using the old system.
