Stone Soup 0.11 (20121001)
--------------------------
 
0.11 Highlights
----------
* A new branch: the [[Spider's Nest|Spider Nest]].
* The [[Swamp]] branch is less annoying now.
* Missile enchantments are no more.
* Monster [[constriction]] vs the player has been overhauled.
* New monsters: [[Arachne]], [[Fannar]], [[orb spider]], [[bog body]], [[Hell Sentinel]].
* Removed monsters: [[Jozef]], [[bog mummy]], [[midge]], [[Pit fiend|Pit Fiend]], [[hairy devil]].
* Lots of new vaults and tiles.
* [[Crawl options|Config file]] overhaul: lists require += when appending, you don't need to upgrade your config by hand anymore (after this last(?) time).
 
Branches, environment
---------------------
* New [[wizlab]]: Roulette of Golubria.
* A metric buttload of new vaults, including several new branch endings and a full-level vault for deeper parts of the main dungeon.
* A new [[Dungeon Sprint|Sprint]] map by st, based on the [[Ziggurat]].
* [[Vault|Vaults]] are more common.
* There are three new level layouts for the dungeon and various branches.
* You don't lose portal vaults after being banished from one.
* Escaping the [[Abyss]] places you where you came from, but grants short-term immunity to most forms of [[banishment]].
* [[Pandemonium]]: slightly fewer exits to the dungeon are placed, but there are many more exits through the abyss (which will return you to the Dungeon).
* The [[Elven Halls]] are only three levels deep.
* [[Branch]] difficulty doesn't depend on where their entrance was anymore.
* Traps of a given type deal the same damage no matter where they are.
* [[Axe trap|Axe traps]] got axed.
* [[Wax wall|Wax walls]] are no more.
* There are no more randomly generated [[Door#History|secret doors]], but they can still be found in vaults.
* The [[Swamp]] has an improved layout, with smaller and more compact levels, and more trees. It is also less misty than before.
* Swamp trees are now mangroves, and are opaque.
* Spider Nest: replaces the old spider portal vault, contains the gossamer rune of Zot.
* Games will have one of the Spider Nest or [[Snake Pit]], and one of the Swamp or [[Shoals]], guaranteeing one poison themed branch and one water themed one.
