+# Example Changelog File
+#
+# Note: This file, and files beginning with ".", and files that don't end in ".yml" will not be read. If you change this file, you will look really dumb.

+# When it is, any changes listed below will disappear.

+# Optional: Remove this file after generating master changelog.  Useful for PR changelogs that won't get used again.
+delete-after: True
+
+# Any changes you've made.  See valid prefix list above.
+# INDENT WITH TWO SPACES.  NOT TABS.  SPACES.
+# SCREW THIS UP AND IT WON'T WORK.
+# Also, all entries are changed into a single [] after a master changelog generation. Just remove the brackets when you add new entries.
+# Please surround your changes in  double quotes ("), as certain characters otherwise screws up compiling. The quotes will not show up in the changelog.
+changes: 
+  - tweak: "Melee weapons are now on par with bullets for internal organ wounding."
+  - tweak: "When internal organs are damaged, the pain felt is now less."
+  - tweak: "The severe brain damage event now happens at 150 brain damage instead of 100."
+  - tweak: "Things that aren't sharp now have an overall less chance of cutting."
+  - tweak: "Brute and burn damage now apply less pain overall."
+  - bugfix: "IPCs, Dionae and so on now once again die at -100 damage."
