# The release of Dungeon Crawl 0.4 brought with it an
# overhaul of monster colours and monster glyphs.
#
# The goal of this change was to put monsters into more
# consistent groups (e.g. group jackals with hounds, move
# slugs into a group of their own) and to follow a more
# consistent colour scheme where similar monsters would
# have similar colours (e.g. orc priest and elf priest
# are both coloured green now) and the higher level (and
# thus more dangerous) version of an early monster would
# get the brighter colour.
# As an example of the latter, the orc sorcerer has been
# recoloured to light magenta because the orc wizard (the
# easier orc mage version) glyph is coloured magenta.
# Also, the colours of some pairings including small
# snake/snake and yaktaur/yaktaur captain have been
# switched, following the same rule.
# Another important point of the change was to avoid the
# use of dark grey, which can be unreadable on some
# systems, and use light grey, white, or blue, or another
# colour in its stead, as appropriate.
#
# We think that as a result of these changes monsters are
# coloured more consistently, and that their difficulty
# level should be easier to grasp for newbies.
# At the same time we realize that this change might be
# hard on experienced players. Of course we hope that you
# will be able to adapt, but in case there are changes you
# really cannot accept, here are the options necessary to
# make the glyphs of all affected monsters show up as they
# did in version 0.3.4.
#
# You'll find a table comparing old and new settings at
# the end of this file.
