* Quest Item pickups
* Music Box notes

## Known issues
* Ruxxtin Coffin cutscene will sometimes not play correctly, but will still reward the item
* If you receive the Magic Firefly while in Quillshroom Marsh, The De-curse Queen cutscene will not play. You can exit
to Searing Crags and re-enter to get it to play correctly.
* Teleporting back to HQ, then returning to the same level you just left through a Portal can cause Ninja to run left
and enter a different portal than the one entered by the player or lead to other incorrect inputs, causing a soft lock
* Text entry menus don't accept controller input
* In power seal hunt mode, the chest must be opened by entering the shop from a level. Teleporting to HQ and opening the
chest will not work.
## What do I do if I have a problem?
If you believe something happened that isn't intended, please get the `log.txt` from the folder of your game
installation and send a bug report either on GitHub or the [Archipelago Discord Server](http://archipelago.gg/discord)
## FAQ
* The tracker says I can get some checks in Howling Grotto, but I can't defeat the Emerald Golem. How do I get there?
* Due to the way the vanilla game handles bosses and level transitions, if you die to him, the room will be unlocked,
and you can leave.
* I have the money wrench. Why won't the shopkeeper let me enter the sink?
* The money wrench is both an item you must find or receive from another player and a location check, which you must
purchase from the Artificer, as in vanilla.
* How do I unfreeze Manfred? Where is the monk?
* The monk will only appear near Manfred after you cleanse the Queen of Quills with the fairy (magic firefly).
* I have all the power seals I need to win, but nothing is happening when I open the chest.
* Due to how the level loading code works, I am currently unable to teleport you out of HQ at will; you must enter the
shop from within a level.
