What's new:

- CSB for DSB!
- Added sys_monster_enter_level (and a monster_level_info table) to emulate only allowing certain monsters
- Added functionality to trigger_controller to duplicate and/or gates
- Increased maximum spawn queue size so CSB will work properly
- Added option to only draw a single wallitem per wall (required for direct ports of FTL DM/CSB)
- Monster generators can now be given a maximum number of activations
- Added option for triggers that are opby_party_carry to trigger when the thing is not carried
- Added off trigger for triggers that only fire when their opby moves off of them

- Fixed monster ranged attacks being somewhat overpowered compared to DM
- Teleporters now queue when trying to teleport monsters to an occupied space
- Made monsters not quite so eager to blast down doors
- Made iron keys a bit easier to see on the floor; they are about as visible as in FTL DM now
- Fixed an error that caused some custom doors to be drawn improperly
- Fixed a crash when saving a dungeon containing a large number of unused champions
- Fixed various bugs in handling the number of experience points given
- Fixed subtle monster AI bugs that made some puzzles in CSB far too difficult
- Fixed an AI bug that sometimes made monsters attack too rapidly
- Added a better fusing Chaos sequence
- ESB now supports setting the subskills of champions directly

Eventually!

The Lua code that automatically converted CSB (included with DSB CSB) kinda sorta works for DM. I'll have to tweak it to get a fully functional DM. Ideally, I'll have to figure out some means of exporting DM champions to CSB, too-- the current exporting method is really lazy and does only what is needed to make CSB work.
