To get this update, you have to opt in inside your library: Necesse -> Properties -> Betas -> Select 0.21.x in dropdown. Even though I have been working hard on settlers, they weren't quite ready for this version. This update adds a completely new boss type and a bunch of items around it including a new ore, new armor set and some new weapons. This brings the swamp caves closer to being complete, although there are still a bunch of stuff that can be improved. Boss drops have also been reworked, making it less grindy as you will now get more varied items from its loot table on consecutive kills. To find the new ore, you have to generate a new swamp cave. This means old swamp caves you have visited won't have the new ore. I've also added a couple of dedicated inventory slots for a mount and a trinket slot only accepting trinket ability items. Mounts can still be used the same way as before, but can now also summoned and mounted directly using a new control key. Logic gates have been reworked, adding a new level layer where they can be placed. This unfortunately means that your old gates will be removed, but also makes them much more useful since they don't take up a bunch of space in the object layer. Later on I plan to use this in world generation as well. Of course there have also been a bunch of smaller changes and fixes :) See the full changelog below
