Hotfix Changes
- Reduced cosmetics during October outside of Halloween modes. Removed lighting change outside of Halloween, because it was dark for some people trying to play the regular randomizer modes.
- Halloween modes light aug now costs energy and is dim. Can be upgraded to level 2 to make it brighter and no longer cost energy. I think this makes it feel even more like a horror survival game.

General Balance Changes
- Buffed regular sword damage and speed
- Reverted old nerf of master pistol 180% vs vanilla 200% (this catches us up with old changes like helmets being added)

- Buffed accuracy for pistols
- Laser sight mods can now be applied to crossbows and plasma rifles
- Fixed quick scope exploit, scope view now has instant shake
- Stealth pistol base damage buffed to 9 instead of 8, so the chances of it overtaking the regular pistol are a bit more likely
- Slightly increased pistol ammo, rates are still lower than vanilla
- Buffed EMP Shield by making levels 1 to 3 slightly stronger (level 4 was already 100% resistance), and all levels make you immune to scrambler grenades
- Buffed Energy Shield by making it use 25 energy per minute like multiplayer, instead of 40 like vanilla
- Heavy Weapon skill (from 100% to 160%) now linearly increases movement speed with heavy weapons instead of only increasing it at the 150% cutoff
- Each level of Microfibral Muscle now also increases movement speed with heavy weapons
- Synthetic Heart now allows boosting some augs past max level (Speed Enhancement aug level 4 is 170%, level 5 is 180%)
- Tweaked combat difficulty scaling for environmental effects, plasma shots should be slightly less punishing for the player now, electricity emitters and pain zones should be doing slightly more damage now due to fixing a bug
- The Untrained Environmental skill's passive is slightly less punishing for the player now
- Zero Rando enviro passive was: -37%, -12%, 12%, 37%
- Zero Rando enviro passive now: -28%, -6%, 14%, 37%
- (hopefully it will still be worth upgrading, especially for using armors)
- Robots have been given a slight damage resistance to plasma again, but still less than vanilla (25% instead 75%)
- Increased darts and flare darts ammo quanitites (not tranq darts)
- Free and infinite Aqualung at level 1, and it can't be upgraded anymore
- Slightly buffed levels 1 and 2 of Vision Enhancement
Major Changes
- Area 51
- Goal locations are now randomized (sorry speedrunners)
- The keypad for the Aquinas Router door is now always unhackable
- So you need to find the computer or datacube to open it
- Hint: When you approach this door, Helios will give you the password for the computer that opens it
- The code for the Blue Fusion Reactor keypads in Area 51 is now learned after you use it once
- Keypads now allow you to type numbers to interrupt the DENIED message (allowing you to guess the last digit of the Blue Fusion Reactor code more quickly)
- The Aquinas Router keypad code datacube no longer has an incorrect code in the GOTY edition
- Made some small fixes and tweaks for the Tong ending
- Fixed some enemy in-fighting on the Page map
- Fixed too many enemies incorrectly spawning at UC 3 in Area 51 Sector 4
- Liberty Island changes
- Goal locations mutual exclusions
- For speedruns this can reduce the difference between good seeds and bad seeds, meaning fewer resets.

- Slightly moved the boat's Top of Statue location so it's easier to see from UNATCO

- Updated the Hong Kong Helibase Purge Gas radius to match visuals, and changed from tear gas damage back to Poison Gas damage (same as vanilla)
- Added the DXMP quick skills menu to single player, and a new similar aug upgrading menu
- To use them, you have to go to Keyboard/Mouse settings and bind keys for "Activate Multiplayer Skill Menu" and "Activate Quick Aug Menu"
- You can close the menus by pressing the bound button again, or escape
- You can now use Augmentation Upgrade Canisters without picking them up, as long as it is highlighted, using either the Quick Aug Menu or the normal Augmentations menu
- Crosshairs now ignore death markers (don't worry, they didn't actually help you aim, it was only an illusion) and have lower highlight priority

- Fixed an exploit where you can sometimes grab items through suspension crates or cabinet walls
- Datacube glow has been moved up slightly on the Z axis, to fix it not being very visible on some surfaces
- Increased rates randomization
- This is how much variety you will see in the overall rates of items, enemies, and weapons for enemies

Major Changes
- You can now pet the dog! And other animals too. With bingo goals.
- Loot Refusal for looting carcasses.
- Check your defaults in the Rando -> Gameplay menu.
- On your inventory screen you have buttons to mark items as trash or not trash. These are only remembered for the current run (since the stats change every run/seed). Marking an item as trash will also drop it.
- Trash items will fall from carcasses when you loot them instead of going into your inventory, but you can still pick them up after.
- Datacubes stop glowing once you've read them, which helps finding datacubes that are close together.
- Reworked the Synthetic Heart augmentation. It no longer uses energy on its own, it just multiplies the energy cost of the boosted augs.
- Reworked the Spy Drone augmentation. Energy cost is reduced greatly, but detonating the Spy Drone now costs 10 energy. (You can disable the aug for free.)
- Fixed the jail mission reducing your grenades and ammo.
- Speedrun mode now defaults to realtime menus. Fixed the crash when changing levels with windows open. Also autorun is a little smarter now. By the way, we now have an official speedrun leaderboard on https://www.speedrun.com/dxrando

- Now the base costs are: 1575 for Trained, 2250 for Advanced, and 3750 for Master
- Nerfed lower levels of speed aug back to vanilla. Max level is still a little weaker than vanilla.
