- When receiving tinkering bits, the summary of your current bit locker is no longer shown.
- Made fewer UI-based popups add their text to the message log.
- In the trade and chest interaction UIs, the item info line at the bottom now appears for items on both sides of the menu instead of just the right side.
- The item info line in the trade UI now includes the weight of the item.
- Falling under lithofex gaze now interrupts autoact and motivates NPCs to flee.

- [modding] Hero generation now supports the tag HeroFactionHeirloomChance, which can be used to specify a percentage chance that the hero will spawn with a randomly generated faction heirloom.
201.25 - beta branch
- We revamped Chimera.
- Chimera still restricts the mutations you can acquire to physical only.
- Whenever you buy a new mutation or mutate with Unstable Genome, one of the mutation options (chosen randomly) indicates that you if you pick it, you'll also grow a new body part.
- The body part is chosen randomly from among all organic body parts.
- The body part grows out of one of your existing body parts, weighted toward your body but any non-abstract body part is possible.
- If you have Irritable Genome and Chimera, when you buy a mutation, there's a 1/3rd chance you'll grow the new body part. This is in place of the augmented selection, since you don't choose the mutation when buying one with Irritable Genome. You will get the augmented selections when Unstable Genome triggers, however.

- Updated the default laptop keymappings with new binds for interact, auto-attack, and journal.
- Dystechnia and Quantum Jitters no longer share the same character build code.
- Fixed some bugs with the interactions between body-occupying mutations, rapid mutations, and the mutation level cap that occasionally caused those mutations to not refresh on time.
