** Fixed an issue preventing damage from being dealt to a Griller hit with a Sting Ray attempting to hit its weak point by shooting through it. Sting Rays that only hit the main body of a Griller will now also deal some damage.

** Fixed an issue where two players attempting to pick up a single Golden Egg just prior to the end of a wave caused one of them to be unable to pick up any Golden Eggs during the following wave.
** Fixed an issue where after playing Salmon Run online, players from your session who appeared in Inkopolis Square were always equipped with the Splattershot Jr.

** Fixed an issue where during a Splatfest, all players you recently played with appeared in Inkopolis Square with a Splatfest Tee with no slots filled in, regardless of the actual status of their Splatfest Tee.

*** Slot 1 - 4000 > 7500
*** Slot 2 - 8000 > 7500

*** Total - 24000 > 22500
* Changes to Multiplayer

** Fixed an issue preventing ink from properly appearing on walls where the wall intersected with a grate.
** Fixed an issue when using Spectator Mode in Private Battle that caused Squid Beakons to not be destroyed after being used.
** Fixed an issue causing walls intersecting with grates to appear uninked when hit with the explosion from a Suction Bomb.
** Fixed an issue causing players to clip into stage objects on Sturgeon Shipyard.
** Specifications for some of the main weapons have been changed.
** Specifications for some of the special weapons have been changed.
** Specifications for some of the sub weapons have been changed.

    too many to list
    mainly multiplayer and SR (if i had to guess they prob went gold so they could produce carts, then used the time between then and release to fix bugs + polish MP)
    1.1.0 -> 1.1.1 code bug fixes
    oh yeah 1.1.0 made the save file encrypted (was plaintext before)"
