- Bellowdemon: Reworked attack pattern, it will now chase its targets aggressively as intended.
- Raptor Grunts and Arachnoshredders: Will now sometimes drop raptor shell 4-packs.
- Raptor Grunts: No longer guaranteed to drop their weapon (but chance is still pretty high).
- Widowmaker: Idle sounds were fixed (was accidentally assigned badass grunt sounds).
- Black helmet and black boot xdeath gib actors were added to the appropriate grunts. (Plasma, Stealth and Rocket for now.)
- Lost Souls: Damage Buffed
- Lost Souls: Now uses the original lost soul attack sound.
- Lost Souls: Fiery sparks added to their pain and death states.
- Grenade Belt: Once picked up, drops any unneeded grenades on the floor instead of wasting them.

v 1.6: (12th Apr '15)
- Added the ArachnoShredder (originaly by SunMadcat)
- Added the Bellowdemon (originaly by SunMadcat)
- Added small raptor shell clips (from amv2k9's MISP)
- Grenadier and Warden's damage resistance has been nerfed further to 0.5.

v 1.51: (19th Oct '13)
- Lost Souls have been replaced by Forgotten One from R667.
- Added a credits lump.
- X-Deaths disabled for Grenadier, Warden, Berserker, and Shock Trooper until suitable gibs are made. X-Deaths for Stealth and Plasma Grunts can still trigger, but they will no longer drop tan-colored helmet gibs.
- Widowmaker: New sounds.
- Warden: Rebalanced.
- Grenadier: Rebalanced.
- Berserker: Given a windup time before he starts firing. Movement pattern made less erratic.

v 1.5: (28th Sep '13)
- Added the Berserker.
- Spawn groups have gone through a slight overhaul.
- Warden and Grenadier: Now block using hitboxes when standing in place (their legs are vulnerable). Their health has been doubled to compensate.
- Warden: Changed the sound of the charge attack and added a slight quake when the player is close. The warden now takes 10% damage and is immune to pain instead of being invulnerable during his charges.

v 1.41: (17th Aug '13)
- Widowmaker: Now checks to see if he has enough room to launch the triple seeking missiles, to prevent them from hitting the ceiling as soon as he fires them (this is done by comparing ceilingz and floorz). If he doesn't have enough room, he'll default to the autocannon.
- Widowmaker: Has been given the NODROPOFF flag, so he will no longer fall down ledges when he dodges back in melee range.
- Grenadier: Now correctly checks his distance before shooting - he won't fire if the target is so far that his grenades can't reach them.
- Skull Wizard: A slight overhaul to his attack damage, patterns and visuals (wide shots use hellknight sprites again).
- Shock Trooper: Now dodges around only when very close to the player. As a result he will generally begin firing sooner when encountered/after reloading.

- Dark Cacodemon: Now correctly bleeds red, like his sprite.

- Skull Wizard: No longer infights with kabro.

v 1.1: (3rd Aug '13)
- Added the Rapid Fire Revenant

Maybe some sort of melee zombie? I always felt that was a niche Doom was missing, a weak melee zombie that would mix in with the lower grunts as cannon fodder only dangerous in high numbers. Maybe make them possessed/zombified civvies or scientists? There are some good sprites floating around for that and it'd be a nice break in between all the projectiles.

And any potential for new Boss types? (Obvious 'later' sorta questions, but I felt like sating my curiosity.)
