Rats and magic

Rats and Magic 1.0.5 — the big Ratlantis update

NEW BOSSES

• PandAce, master of the Marbled Kingdom: he now waits in the great hall of the summit castle. Walk in and an arrival cinematic plays: he rises, bows, greets you by name and draws his katana.
• A real player (his own panda skin), fast katana combos, the AIR SLASH that flies across the hall, a lightning dash-cut, an iai guard that parries your swings, dodge rolls with i-frames, cuts arrows out of the air.
• He reads you: keep your distance or pillar up and he traps you in a bamboo cage; hurt him and run and he sits down to eat bamboo (hit him to interrupt!).
• Phase 2: whirling cuts, bamboo eruptions, and his panda rats join the duel.
• Szy rework: a single 100% resistance pool (60% melee / 40% projectile at the start) that shifts towards the damage you use most — switch damage types to break him. Now a real player with his own skin.

NEW ITEMS

• PandAce's Katana: very fast (2.4 attacks/s), right-click for an air slash that passes through everything.
• Tinker's Wrench (dropped by tinker rats), Corrupted Cheesesteel (Tinkers' Construct material), steel palette blocks.

NEW BIOMES & STRUCTURES (Ratlantis)

• Ironbark Forest: metal trees, tinker outposts (pylon, derrick, gear mill, smithy, silos) and Szy's huge Cheesesteel Works (production hall, smeltery, offices, director's office, rooftop).
• Marbled Cherry Grove: five new builds — five-tier pagoda, moon-gate tea house on stilts, koi garden with arched bridge, blossom shrine with torii, marble gazebo ruin.
• Frostfell Pinewood (NEW): a dark, snowbound spruce forest full of wrecks — broken watchtower, fallen longhall, frozen camp, sunken chapel & graveyard, shattered gate — and, rarely, THE HOLLOW CITADEL: a vast ruined castle with a frozen moat, gatehouse, courtyard, keep... and an empty throne at the top. Next update.
• PandAce's dojo on the summit (taiji floor, torii, panda statues, shrine pavilion).

MOBS

• Tinker rats: their own model (cap & goggles, loupe, apron, tool belt, steam-boiler backpack, mechanical claw arm, wrench) and AI — they throw wrenches, repair hurt allies and Szy, and pop a smoke bomb when cornered.
• Panda rats now fight for PandAce.

New worlds (or unexplored Ratlantis chunks) are needed for the new biomes and structures.
