Changed

• Generated dungeons read more like buildings. Side rooms grow in wings of their kin (a kitchen by the feast hall, cells by the guard room, an ossuary by the burial chamber, a forge by the workshop); a room's purpose sets its light (grand rooms closest lit, the dead's and the cells dimmest); each level down holds a fifth more of the top level's loot and foes; a corridor's niche now and then hides a foe; dvergr open doorways carry the dvergr arch.

• Generated dungeons vary far more. Rooms were all boxes entered in the middle of a wall, each kind furnished one way, torches along every wall. Now:
  • Room shapes: crossings, shrines, tombs and arenas with their corners notched (an octagon's feel), chapels, halls and throne rooms ending in an apse, store rooms, quarters, barracks and the like with a corner cut away or a neck at the door. Walls, beams, the plan's map and the furnishing follow the shape; twins mirror it.
  • Bent corridors: a corridor may run ahead, turn, and enter its room from the side (often in catacombs, warrens, holds and ruins; seldom in a temple). Some rooms are entered on their long side.
  • Two to four furnishings per kind of room, picked by the seed: a mead hall, a hall of the dead, a bare hall of fallen pillars; a chapel's raised altar in a ring of braziers or a nave of rugs and candles; a tomb on a dais; bedrolls round a fire; stock stacked in a corner with a cart; shelves in aisles; a scriptorium; a war room; the boss enthroned over heaps of skulls; a drill room; a dolmen shrine; and more. New props: cobwebs in the corners, chains and hooks from the roofs, bedrolls, weapon stands, training dummies, an archery target, dolmens, candles (where monsters do not come back), a cart, a bath, a round table.
  • Lighting styles per room: standing torches, wall sconces, or braziers in the corners; corridors likewise.
  • Floors: in a stone or grausten dungeon, grand rooms get black marble tiles and lived-in rooms wooden boards, half the time (Furniture at Furnished or Rich). Stone pieces stand on the marble through them, as the game's support asks.
  • Built up inside: in stone and grausten dungeons a great hall, throne room or chapel may carry a loft over the way in (a deck on posts 4 m up, a rail, stairs up one side, braziers and a sentinel on it); arenas and shrines may be sunk a metre below ledges round the walls; a burial chamber may hold a vault, an inner chamber with the sarcophagus inside. Alcoves off rooms and niches off corridors are furnished (a sarcophagus across, a statue between candles, a bed in its bay, a shelf and crates; a single piece in a niche).
  • Clusters: beside its main feature a room gets one or two groups of things that belong together in its corners: a camp, a meal, a scribe's desk, stores, an armoury, an altar, bones, a workbench.
  • Hero pieces: big rooms may get one piece that stands once in the whole dungeon: a dolmen, a fallen giant's statue in parts, a grave slab, a giant's skull or ribs, an altar of crystal, a cart.
  • Corridor kinds: a gate midway under a band of wall, a half collapse, bones along both walls, a runner, vines, sharpened stakes. Dead ends: corridors that lead nowhere but a cache (the biome's chest, loot, sometimes a guard). Catacombs and prisons keep some corridors dark between lit rooms.
  • Pacing: a few rooms stand nearly bare (one piece, a light); clutter never repeats the same thing twice running, and rooms differ in how tidy they are.
  • The whole of the game's prefabs, measured through the editor's models (a bounds driver command): each biome's own growths (vines, roots, surtling cores; guck sacks, tar, muddy scrap piles; icicles, ice shards, snowdrifts, crystals, hung deer; seeker creep, eggs, royal jelly, black cores; charred skulls, wall spikes, gems in the walls; frost cores, frozen dead), its own lights, several kinds of chest, the real crafting stations in kitchens, forges and workshops, measured hero pieces (standing and memorial stones, a wisp fountain, an eternal pyre, a sled, a crane), biome corridor kinds (mud, barricade, creep, icicles, spikes, roots, traps), windows in Ashlands walls, Ashlands and mountain gates. Props that stood at the wrong height (the fallen statue's parts floated metres up) now stand by their measured feet.
  • Lights and decay draw from random streams of their own, so turning Light or Ruin changes nothing else about a dungeon. The tests' copies of the game's data gain the new props.

Added

• A placed dungeon gets the entrance of its kind on the ground. Place in the world now puts the game's own dungeon entrance for the biome (a burial chamber's mound, a sunken crypt's door, a Frost Cave's mouth, an infested mine's, a Morgen hole) on the ground at the middle of the view, facing you, and the dungeon 5000 m above it, laid out where the game lays that entrance's own (a Frost Cave's at the middle of the zone, as the game does). Its door leads up and the door up there leads back out, as in the game's dungeons. Where the biome has no dungeon of its own (the Plains), the portal pair stays. One dungeon fits over a zone: with one there already, nothing is placed and the editor says so.
• Go to the dungeon and Go to the entrance. The view no longer jumps 5000 m up when a dungeon is placed: it stays at the entrance, and two buttons under Place in the world take it up into the dungeon and back down. The Dungeon panel's Go to entrance does the same for any dungeon of the area, next to Go inside.
• Up to 16 levels. Levels went up to 4; the stairs go down as far as 16 now.
• Dungeon blueprints. A blueprint can be a dungeon: switch A dungeon on when saving it in the Workshop (or in the Blueprints tab's Details; it is the tag dungeon). Pasted into a world from the Blueprints tab, it goes 5000 m up behind the entrance of the biome's dungeon where you click, as a generated dungeon does. A portal in the building marks where players arrive and the way they face (the entrance's door out opens there); generated dungeons opened in the Workshop carry that portal and the tag already.
• Claude's generate_dungeon places the entrance the same way, and takes up to 16 levels.

Changed

• The game-data scan reads each location's teleport doors and interior anchor (the tests' copy of dungeon-rooms.json is made again, and keeps the Frost Cave's entrance too).
