- There is a new custom system for awarding room clear awards when playing on a set seed. This will prevent situations where one player goes the wrong way and gets an Emperor card in a seeded race, for example. It is exactly the same as the vanilla system except for the following changes:
- Instead of being based on the room seed, room drops are based on the starting seed of the run and are awarded in order.

- Smelter no longer has a chance to increase trinket drops.

- Deleted the code that prevents unavoidable damage from Spiked / Mimic Chests during the appearing animation, as the bug was fixed in the vanilla game.
- The "level" console command will now always assume that you are in a seeded race. (Thanks thereisnofuture)
- Note that this patch contains some changes for the R+7 Seeded custom challenge. You may have to redo research that was previously done.
- Normally, special room placement is affected by coin count, key count, health amount, and more. This can be a problem for seeded races, as two players can get slightly different floors. This patch contains a new custom system that is turned on in seeded races and the R+7 Seeded custom challenge to provide consistent level generation. Right before you reach the next floor, the custom system will now manually set all of the things that affect level generation in a seeded way, and then swap them back after the floor is generated. The percentages of getting the outcomes are as follows:
- Devil Room visited: 0% on B2, 100% otherwise
- Book touched: 50% for 0 touched, 50% for 1 touched
- Coins: 50% for 0 coins, 50% for 20 coins
- Keys: 50% for 0 keys, 50% for 2 keys
- Full health: 66% for full health, 33% for damaged health
- Critical health: 75% for non-critical health, 25% for critical health
- Because of the above system, Boss Rushes are no longer manually created in seeded races.
- Previously, rerolled items from player-created pedetals would be seeded based on the particular room. Now, they are seeded based on the start seed.
- The "level #" custom command has been added to the console. This command will take you to the particular stage and stage type for the particular seed. If you are in a seeded race or the R+7 Seeded custom challenge, it will also perform the necessary seeded swapping beforehand. Example usage: "level 5"
- Rooms will no longer be reseeded in the R+7 Seeded custom challenge (for Duality, duplicate rooms, etc.).

- Fixed the bugs where dropped trinkets would morph into something else in the R+7 Seeded custom challenge. (Thanks Gamonymous)
- Fixed the bug where certain things were not seeded in the R+7 Seeded custom challenge. (Thanks Moucheron Quipet)

News:
- While the Devil Room and Angel Room changes introduced last week were seen as an improvement by most of the community, I'm not satisfied until I can make Racing+ the best it can be. Based on community feedback, there is room for some things to be tweaked. Most people were indeed in favor of reducing RNG, but a significant portion liked the "fun" aspect of getting a 4 item devil deal. So, it seems appropriate to strike a compromise between getting fun rooms and getting consistent rewards, so that everyone can get some of what they want.
- Furthermore, a good chunk of people felt like Devil Rooms needed a slight buff, as Afterbirth+ and the Booster Packs have further diluted the pool value. In the previous change, the overall power level of Devil Rooms remained the same. But adhering to this principle is restrictive in that it forces a specific amount of 1 item deals. Adding a few pedestals is a slight buff to Devil Rooms, but it also has the benefit of helping to reduce RNG. In addition to adding pedestals, I've also done some other nerfs for balance reasons.
- Angel Rooms look to be in a good spot, so hardly any changes to them seem necessary.
- The results of the "rock" poll (regarding the Treasure Room change) was 15 to 23 in favor of not changing anything. However, the vast majority of people were for making the change on Basement 1 only, so I've done the work to custom code that, and this should satisfy almost everyone.
Mod Changes:
- Devil Deals have been nerfed:
- There are no longer any enemies in Devil Rooms, so it is harder to get your D6 up and backtracking is more important.
- There are no longer black hearts and Red Chests in Devil Rooms.
- It is no longer possible to get heart drops from fires in Devil Rooms.
- There are more hazards in various Devil Rooms.
- The 2 Red Chests in room #16 have been replaced with 4 bombs.
- The random card in room #15 has been removed.
- There is a 0.6% chance to get a room with 10 Red Chests. (There is a 10% chance to get an item per Red Chest, so this will yield one or more items 65% of the time.)
- Devil Deals have been buffed:
- There is a 23.5% chance to get a room with 1 item (decreased from 31.6%).
- There is a 70.4% chance to get a room with 2 items (increased from 68.4%).
- There is a 5% chance to get a room with 3 items (increased from 0%).
- There is a 0.6% chance to get a room with 4 items (increased from 0%).
- The Red Chest in room #14 has been replaced with a ? card.
- The Angel Room with 2 items behind key blocks (#7) now has 3 items.
- You will now always be able to take an item in the Basement 1 Treasure Room without spending a bomb or being forced to walk on spikes. (Thanks Cyber_1)
- Removed the custom handling for Mushrooms, since the unavoidable damage from skulls was fixed in the vanilla game, and Edmund personally confirmed that he intended for Mushrooms to appear in floors other than 3 and 4.

- All of the room fixes are now in the game again. (Duality, unavoidable damage, etc.)

- Fixed some Devil and Angel rooms incorrectly having vanilla weight values instead of 1.0. (Thanks CrafterLynx)
- More Devil Room balance changes:
- Moved a pedestal from the Red Chest room (#4) to another 1 item room.

- Racing+ will now work with Booster Pack #5. All of the new items are now included in diversity races.
- Since Booster Pack #5 includes new achievements, all save files will no longer be 100%. The Racing+ client should automatially help you install a new one upon connecting to the server, if you wish. You should know that some of the new content will not work with Racing+ enabled.

Note that these times should be taken with a grain of salt, since the timing of the client was a little wonky until v0.15.0 (February 11th).
- Season 2 has now started! The leaderboard has been completely reset. In Season 2, Judas will now start with the Schoolbag, but the category is otherwise the same.

- The website now has a "Tournaments" section, where you can see the currently scheduled matches for the week in the current Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ league, Isaacs of the Round. In the future, it will show past tournaments. Thanks to sillypears for coding this.

- Fixed the bug where the mod would not work on the first race if you used save slot 2 or save slot 3. (Thanks 910dan)
- Fixed the bug where the tenths digit of the timer was inaccurate under certain conditions. (Thanks TheMoonSage and PassionDrama)

- The Booster Pack #4 rooms have now been integrated into Racing+ (and flipped).
- The Booster Pack #4 items will now be included in diversity races.
- The vanilla Schoolbag will now be removed from all pools when you have the Racing+ version of the Schoolbag. Until The Battery synergy is fixed in vanilla, it is better to use the Racing+ version.
- Fixed the bug where you could not play hard mode runs in races with a custom format. (Thanks CrafterLynx)
- Fixed the bug where extra enemies were not being killed upon killing Mom, Mom's Heart, or It Lives! (Thanks ReidMercury and NorBro86)
- Fixed the bug where the Gurdy teleport was not being subverted in three flipped rooms in The Chest. (Thanks Cyber_1)
- Fixed the bug where you would prematurely finish a race if your internet disconnected and you reconnected under certain conditions. (Thanks Molfried)
- Racing+ will now work with the latest patch (Booster Pack #4). The new Booster Pack rooms are not yet integrated. Diversity races won't have the new items yet.
- The mod no longer fixes the champion Scolex, since the bug was fixed in the vanilla game.
- The mod no longer has a custom Broken Modem sprite, since they added a good one to the vanilla game.
- Fixed the bug where holding R to go back to the first character on a custom speedun challenge would not reset LiveSplit.
- You will now get a warning if you try to perform an inproperly formatted command on the client.
- The valid client commands are now listed on the website.
- Fixed the bug where the doors would open prematurely with Rag Man's Raglings under certain conditions. (Thanks thereisnofuture and FezzesOrBowties)
- Fixed the bug where the client told you that the mod was corrupt under certain conditions. (Thanks thereisnofuture)
- Integrated the Trinket Outlines mod by O_o into Racing+, which is a sprite improvement mod.
- Fixed the bug where the Lil' Haunt delay reduction wouldn't work if there was more than one Haunt in the room. (Thanks Gamonymous and NorBro86)
- Fixed the bug where the game would lock up if you joined a race while in a custom challenge. (Thanks Thoday)

- Fixed the (vanilla) unavoidable damage in Caves/Catacombs room with 2 Mushrooms and 8 Maggots. (Thanks Dea1h and NorBro86)
- Fixed the bug on "Everything" races where a trapdoor would appear about It Lives! under certain conditions. (Thanks Moucheron Quipet)
- Fixed the bug on "Everything" races where the trophy would spawn prematurely on The Chest if you exited and entered the boss room. (Thanks gorthol and Molfried)
Gameplay:
- Fixed the bug where the Gulp! pill wouldn't do anything. (Thanks thereisnofuture)
- Fixed the bug where races to The Lamb wouldn't work properly. (Thanks Gamonymous)
Client:
- The client now uses a much faster auto update system; instead of having to download everything, you will only have to download the changed files.
- Fixed the bug where the client would think your mod was corrupted if it was disabled. (Thanks thereisnofuture)
- Fixed the bug where the client would restart the run if your internet died in the middle of a race.
Gameplay:
- Samael's scythe charge will now be deleted instead of automatically released if you pick up an item. This should help prevent damaging yourself with Ipecac. (Thanks missingyes)
- Fixed the bug where Samael would lose the Dead Eye multiplier if you hit a tear shoot button in between swings. (Thanks Krakenos)
- Fixed the bug where Sacks spawned from killed Blisters would stay alive after killing Mom under certain conditions. (Thanks Krakenos)
Client:
- The client will now check to see if you have a fully unlocked save file upon logging in. If none is found, it will ask you if you want it to automatically install one for you. This save file is actually fully unlocked in the sense that it has every completion mark on the post-it notes, 999 coins in the donation machine, 9,999,999 Eden tokens, and every easter egg unlocked.
- The client will now show you a message if it is restarting your Isaac for you. (It won't do this unless it detects a corrupted mod.)
- The client will no longer let you ready up if you are playing a non-custom race without the Racing+ mod enabled.
- Previously in v.10.0, the automatic corrupted mod repair was disabled. This is now re-enabled and more robust in that it will check for extraneous files in your mod directory.
- Fixed the bug where Lil' Haunt delay canceling wouldn't work under certain conditions. (Thanks Gamonymous)
- Fixed the bug where non-boss Lil' Haunts had boss health bars. (Thanks Krakenos)
- Fixed the bug where fast-clear would not work properly with Stoneys that morph from Fatties.
- Fixed the (vanilla) bug where Globins are not properly killed after defeating Mom, Mom's Heart, or It Lives! (Thanks Gamonymous)
- Added the TehePelo emote. (Requested by Lobsterosity)
- Integrated the Unique Card Backs mod by piber20 into Racing+, which is a quality of life / sprite improvement mod.
- Since the game's mod support is very buggy, Racing+ has always had an issue where when you enable Racing+ for the first time from the mod menu and then immediately go into a game, certain things will not be initialized properly. (For example, boss cutscenes will play during this state.) Racing+ will now detect this corrupted state and show an error message advising you to close and reopen the game.
- There will no longer be a delay before The Haunt sends out his first Lil' Haunt to attack you.
- The spawning of Key Piece 1 and Key Piece 2 are now sped up in the same way that Krampus items are.
- Fixed the bug where both photos would spawn on the season 1 speedrun challenges if you had Mysterious Paper.
- Fixed the bug where the wrong direction would appear after It Lives! or Hush if you had Mysterious Paper under certain conditions.
- Fixed the bug where the Sloth, Super Sloth, Pride, and Super Pride card seeding wasn't being applied to flipped rooms.
- Fixed the bug where the client would not remember that you selected a random character. (Thanks Shigan)
- Fixed the bug where the mod was inproperly deleting A Lump of Coal from Mystery Gift. (Thanks Thalen22)
- Fixed the bug where Krampus' Head would get deleted under certain conditions. (Thanks leo_ze_tron)
- Fixed the bug where the new race tooltip would not show some sections on startup under certain conditions. (Thanks Shigan and Blumpkin Idaho)
- Fixed the bug where you could fight Mega Satan twice if you teleported out of the fight after killing him. (Thanks Gamonymous)
Gameplay:
- Shops are no longer flipped.
- The Y-flipped double Gate rooms and double Mega Maw rooms have been unflipped due to how the patterns from their respective champion versions are much harder to dodge from behind. (Thanks Shigan)
- Krampus' item will now spawn at the beginning of the death animation rather than midway through. This prevents the Krampus item getting deleted if you accidently leave the Devil Room as soon as the doors open. Furthermore, this means that it is now possible to do the "Anti Quick Roll" strategy in Racing+, where you can roll the item before the room is cleared to get an extra charge on the D6. (Note that unlike before, this is now a frame perfect trick.) (Thanks Thoday)
- Unfair Dople / Evil Twin tears that fire on the first frame were previously "fixed" by adjusting the Dople / Evil Twin placement in the room. However, this method did not reliably stop Evil Twin triple shots from hitting the player, so Dople / Evil Twin placement has been reverted to vanilla in all rooms and new Lua code will automatically delete any projectiles fired on the first frame.
- If you enter the Mega Satan room without defeating the Lamb first on the "Everything" race goal, something very bad will happen. (Thanks Shigan and BMZ_Loop)
- You can no longer use the Glowing Hour Glass in the pre-race room. (Thanks Gamonymous)
- If you have the Mysterious Paper trinket, you will now always have a choice between the two photos after defeating Mom. (It is impossible to tell if the player has the real Polaroid or Negative when this trinket is equipped.) (Thanks Molfried and Smoom)
- Fixed the bug where friendly enemies would prevent fast-clear from functioning. (Thanks thereisnofuture)
- Fixed the bug where The Compass was not being removed from all pools in seeded races.
- Fixed the bug where Rag Man Raglings would not work with fast-clear under certain conditions. (Thanks 910dan)
- Fixed the bug where the spike deleting code for the Depths/Necropolis bomb puzzle room was not being applied to the flipped versions of those rooms. (Thanks SlashSP)
- Fixed the bug where you could hear the beginning of the recharge sound every time you reset on Eden.
- Fixed the bug where the number of people ready was not properly updated in the pre-race room if someone left the race. (Thanks Nariom)
Client/Server:
- The server once again shows the race listing. The page has been updated and looks much better than before. Sillypears programmed this, so a big thanks goes to him.
- The server once again shows player profiles. This was also programmed by Sillypears.
- The server now requires that you have the latest version of the client before letting you connect.
- The client will now automatically logout if you logout of Steam in order to curb unscrupulous behavior.
- The client no longer checks to see if you have the Racing+ mod installed when you launch it. (Thanks Hyphen-ated)
- When creating a new race, the client now remembers all of the values that you entered in the last time the client was open. (Thanks Hyphen-ated)
- The client will now perform a more robust check to see if your mod is corrupted. If it detects your mod is corrupted, it will restart your game.
- Fixed the bug where the Chinese racer named "box" would mess up the lobby users list. (It wasn't his fault.)
- Fixed the bug where selecting a random character in the new race tooltip would not include Samael. (Thanks Shigan)
- Removed the "Ctrl+C" and "Ctrl+V" hotkeys since they are not needed anymore.
- Removed the double negative in the "Enable boss cutscenes" checkbox. (Thanks tyrannasauruslex)
- The client will now automatically remove all trailing slashes in your Twitch URL. (Thanks Thoday)
- The server now keeps track of when you enter all rooms and when you pick up all items.
- The server now keeps track of what item you started (in non-seeded races).
- Mid-race placements will now work in races with over 10 people in them. (This was previously disabled to stop the server from crashing.)
- Fixed some placements of Mega Maws and Gates in flipped rooms on The Chest and The Dark Room. (Thanks Thalen22 and thereisnofuture)
- Fixed some miscellaneous bugs with the server. (Thanks PassionDrama and Molfried)
- The server has been rewritten mostly from scratch in an attempt to fix the deadlocking issue that was causing it to crash every once in a while. This process took around 60 hours over the past week, with around 7500 new lines of code.
- The new server should be an order of magnitude faster and will be able to support race ghosts in the same vein that Mario Kart has.
- The SQLite database was replaced with MariaDB. This was the thing holding leaderboards back. Now it should be pretty easy to make them.
- The Golem WebSocket framework was replaced with the Melody WebSocket framework. Golem's handling of WebSockets was causing the deadlock during times of mass sending.
- Are you ready to get flipped? In order to promote run diveristy, all rooms now have the possibility to be flipped on the X axis, the Y axis, or both axises.
- This is probably something that should have been in the original game, but I can only guess that no-one thought of it (or Nicalis was too lazy).
- This will only be noticable in non-symmetrical rooms.
- All room shapes are preserved with the exception of L rooms, which are flipped accordingly.
- Since the probabilities of getting each individual room are the same (discounting entrances), there are no general strategical implications of this change.
- One small exception is that instead of there being only 3 types of top-left L-rooms in The Chest, there are now 12.
- Another small exception is that the trapdoor room on the Caves/Catacombs/Depths/Necropolis is flipped, so you can get it from the bottom now instead of only from the top.
- An enormous thanks goes to Chronometrics for this, as he designed the custom code that allowed this to be programatically done.
- The server will no longer send messages to your Twitch chat if your client is closed.
- In the client, the "Custom" character is now replaced with "Samael" and shows a graphic for him.
- Fixed the bug where mid-race placements were messed up on non-seeded races. (Thanks Shigan and BMZ_Loop)
- Fixed the bug where the Booster Pack #3 items were not in any item pools. (Thanks Flaw98)
- The client installer will now work on 32-bit systems. (Thanks missingyes)
- Fixed the bug where you could take both The Polaroid and The Negative if both spawned. (Thanks Krakenos and CrafterLynx)
- The seed will now be shown in the upper-left hand corner of the screen after finishing a race or finishing a run on a multi-character speedrun custom challenge. Now, players do not have to use Hyphen-ated's item tracker (or manually pause the game) in order to have their runs be legal on Speedrun.com. (Thanks Krakenos)
- The "Unseeded (Beginner)" format is renamed to "Unseeded (Lite)". (Thanks SlashSP)
- Isaac now starts with 1.6 speed (instead of 1.0 speed) in the "Change Char Order" custom challenge. This should making choosing your order a little less cumbersome. (Thanks Thoday)
- If you start with The Polaroid or The Negative in a diversity race, the opposite photo will now spawn after defeating Mom. If you start with both The Polaroid and The Negative, a random boss item will spawn. (Thanks tODDlife, Krakenos, and BMZ_Loop)
- Fixed the bug where the bomb puzzle room in Dank Depths would have invisible collision on squares where spikes were removed. Spikes will still be removed, but now they won't be replaced with rocks. (Thanks Karolmo)
- Fixed the bug where fast-clear would not work if a black worm was spawned from the My Shadow item. (Thanks BMZ_Loop)
- Fixed the bug where big 4 items could fart-reroll into other big 4 items in the "Unseeded (Lite)" format. (Thanks leo_ze_tron)
- Fixed the bug where fast-clear would not work with Hosts that were spawned as a Mushroom replacement. (Thanks Chronometrics)
- Fixed the bug where fast-clear would not work with Rag Man's Raglings. (Thanks BMZ_Loop)
- Fixed the bug where you could sometimes see The Polaroid or The Negative for a frame before it was moved or deleted.
- Fixed the bug where you could sometimes see the trapdoor on Womb 2 for a frame before it was moved or deleted. (Thanks BMZ_Loop)
- Fixed the bug where the trapdoor would spawn closed after Isaac and Blue Baby in the "Everything" race goal. (It will now spawn open like it does after Satan.)
- Fixed the bug where the beam of light that spawns after It Lives! would take a while to activate when reloading the room.
- For the "Mega Satan" and "Everything" race goals, going into the Mega Satan room will count as a new floor for the purposes of updating the mid-race place indicator. (It will show as "MS" as your floor inside the client.)
- Fixed the bug where fast-clear would not work with Samael when his special animations were playing. (Thanks Noowoo)
- Fixed the bug where you could use a Sacrifice Room to cheat on the "Everything" race goal. (Thanks thereisnofuture)
- Fixed the bug where the mid-race places were not calculated properly on the later floors of the "Everything" race goal (for real this time). (Thanks Krakenos)
- Fixed the bug where you could ready up while in a hard mode or greed mode run.
- Fixed the bug where fast-clear was not working with Begottens.

- Fixed the bug where charmed enemies were stopping fast-clear from happening. (Thanks tODDlife)
- Fixed the bug where fast-clear was not working with Satan.
- Fixed the bug where Frail was making the doors open early. (Thanks tODDlife)
- Fixed the bug where a pickup on top of a trapdoor would play a spawning animation instead of just being moved. (Thanks tODDlife)
- Fixed the bug where the mid-race places were not calculated properly on the later floors of the "Everything" race goal. (Thanks antizoubilamakA)
- When there is more than one Sloth, Super Sloth, Pride, or Super Pride in a room, they should now always drop the same card no matter which order you kill them in. (Thanks Krakenos)
- The "Victory Lap" text will now appear on the top-left hand corner of the screen instead of the top-right. This should make it display more consistently across different resolutions.
- Fixed the bug where the doors would not stay closed after bombing an angel (again). (Thanks SlashSP)
- Fixed the bug where it was possible to play a race on the wrong character. (Racing+ will always automatically change your character to the correct character for the race.) (Thanks Darkwolf)
- The "fast-clear" feature was not working properly in the last patch, but it should be better now. (Thanks CrafterLynx, Cyber_1, BMZ_Loop, and 910Dan)
- Fixed the bug in the "Everything" race goal where Sheol and the Dark Room had the same layouts as Cathedral and The Chest.
- Added a new seeded build: Technology Zero + Pop! + Cupid's Arrow
- Added a new race goal of "Everything", which takes you on an epic journey to kill Blue Baby, The Lamb, and Mega Satan. (This is the mode that will be used for the Papaya Party tournament.)
- The Lamb can no longer move while he is doing a brimstone attack. (This can cause unavoidable damage in certain situations.) (Thanks ceehe)
- Fixed the (vanilla) unavoidable damage on the Dank Depths bomb puzzle room where a spike could sometimes overwrite a rock. (Thanks Nariom)
- Fast-clear will now work properly with Dark Red champions.

- Fixed the bug where sometimes pickups spawn on (or get pushed on to) trapdoors.
- Fixed the bug where diversity races would crash when starting with certain trinkets. (Thanks BMZ_Loop)
- Fixed the bug where using Clicker on Samael would cause the scythe to float in the air.
- Reduced the damage penalty on Samael for Mom's Knife from 1.5 to 1.25.
- Fixed the bug where the black champion Widow would open the doors prematurely under certain circumstances.
- Fixed the bug where pickups could sometimes spawn on top of trapdoors and crawlspaces. (Thanks Cyber_1)

- Added a new race format called "Unseeded (Beginner)". This is similar to the Racing+ Light mod. More details can be found on the website.

- When you have the Schoolbag but no 2nd active item, there will now be a faded placeholder graphic of a Schoolbag to indicate this. (Thanks thisguyisbarry)
- Mid-race floor updates are turned off for races over 10 people in order to prevent server crashes. This means that you won't know what place you are in until you actually finish the race. Fixing this in the long term is somewhat complicated.

- Fixed the bug where Lilith was not starting with the Box of Friends inside the Schoolbag in seeded races. (Thanks thisguyisbarry)

News:
- Season 1 is finished!
- Congradulations to Cyber_1 for the best R+9 time of 1:31:02 and Dea1h on the second best time of 1:33:27. I was luckily able to nab third place with 1:33:49.
- Congradulations to Dea1h for the best R+14 time of 2:41:37, Shigan for the second best time of 2:49:48, and CrafterLynx for the third best time of 2:54:08.
- The top 10 times will be stored in a hall of fame page on the website in the future.
- If you want to beat these times, the R+9 and R+14 categories will continue to be tracked on speedrun.com, but the official competition will move on to season 2.
- Season 2 has officially begun! The new category is now considered final; there will be no more major balance changes.
- If you have ideas for season 3, send them to me on Discord, which is planned for November 2017.
Changes:
- Azazel's starting health has been changed to be 3 black hearts and 1 half soul heart. This makes him more powerful, but is closer to vanilla. (Thanks Lobsterosity and Krakenos)
- When you have Mom's Knife, extra stats will now appear in the bottom-right hand corner of your screen to show your accuracy.
- Shots fired when the room is clear of enemies won't count towards the stats.
- The stats won't show if you have more than one knife, Epic Fetus, or Brimstone.
- In the R+7 custom challenge, both The Polaroid and The Negative will now spawn after defeating Mom (instead of just The Polaroid). Neither are required for the trapdoor to appear after Satan. (Thanks SlashSP)
- If there are multiple Mom's Hands or Mom's Dead Hands in a room, they will now fall in 3 frame intervals instead of 1 frame intervals, which will make them look less buggy.
- If you are on a victory lap, the amount of victory laps will now show in the bottom-right hand corner of the screen.

- Fixed the bug where the D6 was not getting removed from item pools properly when playing as Isaac on custom challenges. (Thanks CrafterLynx)
- Putting the Wraith Skull in the Schoolbag will now immediately end the item's invulernability, similar to how My Little Pony and Unicorn Stump work.

- Fixed the bug where you saw the old character briefly after grabbing the Checkpoint custom item.
- Added the Samael custom character for the purposes of testing him out as a potential canditate for season 2. This is a character made by Ghostbroster: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=897795840
- Samael now starts with the D6, the Schoolbag, and 1 bomb.
- Removed Samael's innate ability; he now starts with the Wraith Skull inside the Schoolbag.
- Removed Samael's custom Isaac decapitation animation. (It's pretty satisfying to see, but it gets old after a while.)
- Fixed various bugs relating to Samael. (Sacrificial Dagger now works.)
- Added a new custom challenge for season 2.

- After you have opened the console, you can now double tap R to fast-reset.

- The two Frails that replace Scolex in seeded races will no longer spawn on top of each other, which makes it much easier to distinguish between the two of them.
- Cube of Meat and Ball of Bandages will no longer be fart-rerolled in diversity races. (Thanks PassionDrama)

To rectify this problem, Mimic chests now have a custom "Appear" animation if they spawn within a certain distance of the player. If you want to see this in action, use the "spawn mimic" console command.

- Fixed the bug where the unavoidable damage prevention code for Mimics was not firing properly. (Thanks tyrannasauruslex)

- Fast-travel no longer applies to the portal to the Blue Womb. This fixes the bug where the Blue Womb trapdoor would take you to Sheol instead of the Blue Womb. (Thanks Dea1h)
- Fixed the bug where Dr. Fetus bombs could be shot while jumping through the new trapdoors. (Thanks PassionDrama and tyrannasauruslex)
- The 13 luck for the Fire Mind build is now a custom item called "13 Luck". It should now function properly with other items. (Thanks thisguyisbarry)

- Made the fast-reset feature work for people who have reset bound to shift. (Thanks MasterofPotato)
- Fixed an unavoidable damage room in the Caves (#167). (Thanks Dea1h)
- The hitbox on trapdoors and crawlspaces was slightly larger than it was on vanilla due to having to override the vanilla entities. Racing+ now uses custom entities for these, which fixes the bug where you would sometimes accidently walk into a trapdoor while entering a Devil Room, for example. This also fixes the bug where you would sometimes skip a floor when going in a trapdoor.
- Fixed the bug where your blue flies / spiders would kill themselves on the custom floor transition hole. (Thanks CrafterLynx)
- Fixed the crash when a diversity race started with Booster Pack #1 items. (Thanks stoogebag)

- The racing system was rewritten such that you should never have to go back to the menu in between races anymore (unless you need to change your character). You will now start the race in an isolated room, and all races will start by resetting the game.
- Seeded races will automatically start you on the correct seed; you do not have to type it in anymore.
- Pressing the reset key will now instantly reset the game. (This change is experimental.)
- The client now validates that you are not on a challenge before letting you ready up.
- The mod now has some new pre-race graphics, including showing you the goal. (Thanks stoogebag)

- Diversity races that start with the new Booster Pack items will now work properly. (Thanks BMZ_Loop)
- Fixed the unavoidable damage when Spiked Chests or Mimics spawn in Caves/Catacombs room #19. (Thanks PassionDrama)
- In diversity races, when you pick up Crown of Light from a Basement 1 Treasure Room, it will now heal you for half a heart if you are not already at full red hearts. (Thanks Dea1h)

- If Eden starts with Book of Sin, Crystal Ball, Betrayal, or Smelter, they will now start with the Racing+ custom version of the item.

- Fixed the bug where you could recharge your active item by swapping for another active item. (Thanks dion)
- Fixed the bug where items that were not fully decremented on sight rolled into themselves. This involved rewriting both the item ban system and the RNG that the mod uses. The ban system now seeds items one by one starting with the room seed. The RNG is now based on the game's internal RNG. (Thanks Rex and Krakenos, and thanks blcd for ShiftIdx recommendation)
- Fixed the bug where rerolled items would be swapped if one item was purchased beforehand and the other one wasn't.
- Fixed the bug where Schoolbag items were not added to the ban list on seeded races. (Thanks Cyber_1)

- Fixed the bug where some glowing item and trinket images were not showing up properly on the starting room. (Thanks Krakenos)
- Fixed the bug where starting the Boss Rush would not grant a charge to the Schoolbag item. Note that actually clearing the Boss Rush still won't give any charges, due to limiations with the Afterbirth+ API. (Thanks Dea1h, who saw it on tyrannasauruslex's stream)
- Fixed the bug where fart-reroll items would start at 0 charges. (Thanks Munch, who saw it on tyrannasauruslex's stream)

- Before a race, you will see an indication of whether you are ready or not.
- Seeded races now show the starting item / starting build in a manner similar to diversity races.
- Items shown on the starting room in seeded and diversity races now have a glow so that it is easier to see them. (The glow images were taken from the item tracker.)

- Fixed the bug where enemies spawned after touching the trophy under certain conditions. (Thanks MasterofPotato, Ou_J, and Cyber_1)
- Fixed the bug where on seeded races, the door to the Treasure Room that was inside a Secret Room would behave weirdly on Basement 1.
- Fixed the bug where the depths STB wasn't getting loaded. (Thanks Lobsterosity)
- The Racing+ versions of The Book of Sin, Crystal Ball, Smelter, and Betrayal now work with the item tracker. If you haven't already, make sure that you download the latest version of the tracker. (The item tracker will now also auto-update if you have v2.0 or higher.) Thanks goes to Hyphen-ated for this.
- The Racing+ custom items Schoolbag, Soul Jar, Victory Lap, Off Limits, and Debug will now work with the item tracker. Thanks also goes to Gromfalloon for the artwork on the Soul Jar icon.
- Smelter will now make consumed trinkets appear on the item tracker. (This will only happen if you use the Racing+ mod.)
- The item tracker will now show the smelted random trinket in diversity races.
- Godhead is removed from the special diversity Basement 1 rerolls.
- If the goal of a race is Mega Satan, the chests will now be deleted after Blue Baby and The Lamb as a reminder. (Thanks Krakenos)
- Fixed the spawning of the key pieces if the race goal is set to Mega Satan. Additionally, a Get out of Jail Free Card will now spawn instead of two key pieces. (Thanks BMZ_Loop)
- A Get out of Jail Free Card will now spawn next to the Mega Satan door if you visit the starting room after finishing a race.
- The Forget Me Now that spawns after a race has been replaced with a custom item called Victory Lap. Victory Lap is a passive item, so you don't have to give up your active items anymore to reset the floor.
- Added a feature where Blue Baby will be replaced on a Victory Lap with 2+ random bosses. The number of bosses will continue to increase with the amount of total victory laps that you have done.
- Fixed the bug where Keeper would lose a coin container under certain conditions. (Thanks Cyber_1)
- Fixed the bug where Krampus' head would turn into A Lump of Coal under certain conditions. (Thanks Cyber_1)

- The bug where the aformentioned items would not start fully charged is also fixed.
- Fixed a client crash when diversity races started with certain items. (No-one actually reported this out of the 12 people that it happened to. WutFace)
- Fixed the (vanilla) unavoidable damage when a Mimic spawns on top of you. (Thanks henry_92)
- All Spike Chests will now spawn as Mimics instead, since there isn't really a point in having both of them. (Thanks thisguyisbarry)
- Mimics are rediculously trivial to spot, so their graphics have been experimentally reverted back to the pre-nerf graphics. You can tell them apart from normal chests by just looking for the beginnings of the spikes protruding from them. It's fairly easy to see if you just pay attention and look for it. It can be very rewarding when you are paying attention and it pays off: https://clips.twitch.tv/AssiduousSillyLardTwitchRPG
- Fixed the unavoidable damage that occurs when Spiked Chests and Mimics spawn in very specific rooms that only have a narrow path surrounded by walls or pits (Caves #12, Caves #244, Caves/Catacombs #518, Caves #519, Womb/Utero #489). In these rooms, all Spiked Chests / Mimics will be converted to normal chests. If you find more rooms with narrow paths like these ones, let me know.
- Hosts and Mobile Hosts are now immune to fear.
- Maw of the Void and Athame will no longer be canceled upon exiting a room.
- Fixed the (vanilla) bug where having Gimpy causes the Krampus item to be different than it otherwise would have been. (Thanks Dea1h)

- Added the FeelsAmazingMan emote (requested by MasterofPotato).
- Added the DICKS emote (requested by MasterofPotato).

- Fixed a bug with the "/r" command on the client. (Thanks to InvaderTim for coding this.)
- The lobby users list is now properly alphabetized. (Thanks to InvaderTim for coding this.)
- Your "save.dat" file will no longer be overwritten if the client encounters an error and you restart the program. This fixes the error message that tells you to restart in the middle of your run. (Thanks henry_92)
- Fixed the bug where the in-game timer would disappear from the screen once you finished the race.
- Previously, pickup delay on pedestals was only reduced for freshly spawned pedestals. Pedestal delay is also set to 18 upon entering a new room, so this class of delay is reduced to 10 as well.
- Fixed the bug where Keeper would get stuck on 24, 49, or 74 cents. (Thanks Crafterlynx)
- Fixed the bug with Schoolbag where if you took damage at the same time as picking up a second active item, it would delete it. (Thanks Ou_J)
- Fixed the bug with Mom's Hands and Mom's Dead Hands where they would stack on top of each other when falling at the exact same time. Instead of falling with a 30 frame timer, they will now fall with a random 25 to 35 frame timer. (Thanks ceehe)
- Fixed the bug where the Lil' Haunts on The Haunt fight would be messed up. (Thanks Thoday)
