SLR Changelog (FINALLY)

Current

Expect Bugs and Please Report them for the projects sake!

Advancement And Vessel Progression

• Split advancements into public Hunter milestones and private System progression, preventing personal levels, jobs, vessels, DKC progress, and story choices from broadcasting globally.
• Added private advancement branches for System levels, Job Change, all vessel identities, vessel skills, Spiritual Body Manifestations, DKC milestones, and both House Radiru outcomes.
• Vessel skills now unlock through server-authoritative level milestones, with implemented Monarch manifestations unlocking at level 120.
• Ashborn progression uses separate shadow requirements, including stored-shadow counts, Shadow Exchange, DKC floor 10, and level 120 for the final manifestation.
• Existing saves and command-assigned vessels automatically reconcile with the new progression rules without repeatedly updating unchanged state.

Demon King's Castle

• Remade Demon King's Castle as 20 distinct floor cells inside one shared realm, preserving unique environments while allowing inactive areas to unload normally.
• Added unique coordinate-based fog, lighting, particles, sky effects, and a huge fixed blood-red moon for every floor.
• Added complete climbing demon towers and surrounding districts, with progressively taller structures, floor-specific auras, and protected adventure areas.
• Entry Permits unlock and generate floors per player, recover interrupted builds, and open travel paths only when destinations are ready.
• Floor progression counts only the player's reachable assigned enemies and supports reliable spawning, recovery, boss retries, rewards, return travel, and void rescue.
• Added one optional Elite Demon or Demon Knight miniboss per floor attempt, with distinct upper-floor combat profiles.
• Floor 20 requires defeating both Baran and Kaiselin before completion and awarding the owner-bound Kaisel soul.
• Added Cerberus, Vulcan, Baran, Kaiselin, Demons, and Demon Knights with dedicated visuals, behavior, scaling, and rewards.
• Reworked floor 15 around House Radiru, including Esil, a castle and battlefield, training stations, and mutually exclusive mercy or execution routes.
• Sparing House Radiru creates a permanent sanctuary and unlocks a post-conquest return quest; killing surrendered residents grants bonus rewards and the forbidden Cold Blood skill.
• Added live DKC objectives to the hold-Tab display and an operator floor-selector command for testing or recovering floors 1-20.
• Existing saves from retired DKC dimensions migrate into the shared realm while preserving unlocked floors and armed Entry Permits.

Dimensional Rift

• Added a finite war dimension divided into eight distinct Monarch territories surrounding a central battlefield.

• Job Change access now unlocks through System > Quests, with the Igris dungeon locked until its quest is completed.

Dungeon Builder Studio
