Balance: gave Blunt Arrow AP cost a nerf: 50 - L*2 --> 80 - L*2 AI - Units will now target enemies with lowest EFFECTIVE health (HP * Armor Class), not just lowest HP. - Summon abilities no longer belong to the Support tree. Instead they're treated as self-buffs, which is now its own tree that is checked before the roles waterfall. - Units will not pass turn waiting for MP to cast a buff. - The Tank and DPS Close trees will now be completely ignored by "pure ranged" units (i.e. has Ranged DPS prioritized above both, and no melee abilities equipped). - Melee heroes will now only use Mortal Strike if it will kill the target. - Fixed a bug causing units with Leap to hop around randomly. - Interference units will no longer stun a feared target - Now no one anywhere will ever target a summoned unit for healing.

DM rob-wfs on Discord if you want something added to the whitelist. AI - Summon Dwarf will now target tiles near the nearest enemy, not next to the caster. - Support units should no longer send mana to summoned units. - Caverns squads will now buff & summon while rooms are empty, instead of doing nothing. 2025.01.04 - 9 new caverns mobs!

Also made poison & bleed damage affected by Affinities Caverns: play an alert sound when a room is cleared

HERO AFFINITIES: Now your level 30+ heroes can spend ability points on "Affinity" upgrades, giving them bonus damage or damage reduction against specific hero classes or monster types. Find the Affinities interface in the lower left of the Edit Abilities screen! Fixed a serious bug causing Caverns mobs abilities always to be level 0. So, you're going to find mobs a lot more dangerous at the depths you're already at. Since this is likely to cause some players to have to restart Caverns from the first level, I've given everyone 1,000 Pixie Dust to make up for it.
