Fought Slime God again after updating and gotta say; MUCH better fight! Barely won, even using infinite flight from the
secret Coznix mount and such from Thorium! It was ridiculous how powerful he was in Expert and I love it!

Great banner!

Also... BIG ISSUES with the ore spawning!!!

This isn't just about trees, you know. This is about a fundamental flaw that lets it spawn in literally any tile, from furniture to stalactites to - as mentioned - Demon Altars.

The solution is to provide a WHITELIST of blocks the ore is ALLOWED to spawn in. Ideally, this list probably contains at least: dirt, stone, ice, snow, mud, clay. Maybe don't include dirt/clay, if the idea is to keep the ore underground.

In 1.1.2 I have experienced Aerialite spawns as far down as the bottom of the Underworld (note: small world size). This demonstrates a flaw in control over where the ore can spawn. If nothing significant has changed except for one variable, nothing much has changed at all.

I could take a look at the ore spawning code for you if you like.

EDIT: I looked at the code, but unfortunately I do not have the documentation on WorldGen.TileRunner. If I had the documentation on the whole WorldGen class, that would be amazing. Unfortunately, being on OSX, I do not have access to ANY tools required to obtain a Terraria source. UGH. Basically, this one thing is locking me out of 90% available features. It doesn't help that distributing the source is illegal.

Yeah, I figured that out after taking a break for a while. I'll fix it so certain ores can only spawn in certain tiles.
