Items can from now on have effects that trigger when a creature is killed. The current use of this functionality can be seen in the new donor created item Pearlescent Soul Stone. The Soul Stone increases it's charges each time the player kills a creature and when fully charged it's power can be released to provide the same effect as using a Scroll of Enchant. This new "on kill" trigger can be used to create a lot of interesting items, for instance weapons that heal when a creature is killed (as opposed to the drain ability that exists now and work while the target is alive), wands that recharge when a target is killed or items similar to the Pearlescent Soul Stone that charge and when fully charged provides an on-use effect of some kind.
An interesting change for room contributors is that pressure plates can be used to open the new and otherwise impassable Iron Doors. This can be expanded to unlocking gates and doors as well but it should be done in collaboration with the Dweller community. Oh, yes, pressure plates and dart traps are hidden now! And there might be something else that is triggered by pressure plates as well...
There's also two new monsters and two new quests, one of which gives a really nice reward!
