There will only be one difference in the menu with the upcoming v1.0.6

Here’s a list of changes that are expected to come in the next patch for Terraria.

Inventory/GUI improvements:

• Colored inventory boxes.
• Loot All and Quick Stack Chest functions.
• Trash Can which allows you to retrieve the last item thrown away.
• Items picked up will be placed in the bottom right corner of the inventory first.
• Lock button which prevents the hotbar from being altered.
• Four new inventory slots for ammo.
• Exact health value will be shown above the health bar.
• All mana items will be blue instead of purple.
• Health gain text will be green.
• Right-clicking equippable items will equip them.
• Shift-clicking items will vendor them (if trading with an NPC) or will otherwise trash them.
• Ammo consuming weapons placed in the hotbar will now display how much ammo there is remaining.
• The seven most recently connected servers will now be displayed in the Multiplayer menu.
• It is no longer possible to drop items through the spaces between boxes in the inventory.
• Grapple hotkey added.
• New sounds on some currently quiet enemies/events.
• Magic and mana system overhauled.
  • The rate of mana regeneration is based on a percentage of your maximum mana.
  • Regeneration rate further varies depending on your current mana (less = slower).
  • Mana regeneration bonuses have been converted to maximum mana bonuses.
• Healing potion effectiveness reduced and cooldown increased (Potion Sickness debuff which lasts 60 seconds).
• Life now regenerates automatically. The longer it’s been since you’ve been hit, the faster it regenerates.
• Damage given and received has a 15% variance. There is also a 4% chance of a critical hit which deals 100% extra damage (player to enemy only).
• New hairstyles.
• New dungeon content:
  • Spinning spike-ball trap.
  • Locked Chests which require Keys to open.
  • Increased Spike spawn during world generation.
• New Night’s Edge and Dark Lance sprites.
• Items sold to NPCs can be bought back for the selling price.
• Addition and removal of background tiles have now been sped up, as well as 1 tile hole being automatically filled up.
• New status ailments which provide negative effects to both the player and NPCs:
  • Poisoned
  • On Fire!
  • Cursed
  • Darkness
• Jungle Armor stats altered:
  • Increases maximum mana
  • increases magic critical strike chance
  • Set bonus: 16% mana usage
• Necro Armor stats altered:
  • Increases ranged damage
  • Set bonus: 20% chance not to consume ammo
• Improved flail mechanics.
• Different weapons will have different damage types. Eventually in later updates, certain damage types may be more/less effective against certain enemies.
• Cacti no longer cause knock-back.
• Thorny Bushes will now be destroyed after touching them.
• The Band of Starpower now adds 20 maximum mana instead of speeding up mana regeneration.
• Lava Slimes will no longer burst into a pool of lava when killed.

 

Bug Fixes:

• Eater of Worlds will be listed as “flees” when the player exits The Corruption instead of being listed as “defeated”.[5]
• Night Owl Potion will gain its intended purpose.[5]
• Rejuvenation potions will work with the Quick Heal and Quick Mana functions.[5]
• Dungeons will no longer spawn in the ocean.[5]
• NPCs who are far from home will no longer “flip out”.[5]

The most critical changes to the next patch has to lie in the fact that Re-Logic is upping the ante when it comes to bosses such as the Eater of Worlds, which was quite easy once you’ve got anything better than the Gold Broadsword.

Unfortunately for people who have played the game through once and have seen everything, it seems like the next patch will offer little in the way of new items or new areas to explore. However, wait a bit longer – a few months, perhaps – and Re-Logic might just come out with a major upgrade (Terraria 1.1), which would see a widening of the scope of the game. Unfortunately, for now, the next patch still is underwhelming.
