## What does randomization do in this game?
|
|
|
|
All items and upgrades that can be picked up by the player in the game are randomized. The player starts in the Tower of
|
|
Time HQ with the past section finished, all area portals open, and with the cloud step, and climbing claws already
|
|
obtained. You'll be forced to do sections of the game in different ways with your current abilities.
|
|
|
|
## What items can appear in other players' worlds?
|
|
|
|
* The player's movement items
|
|
* Quest and pedestal items
|
|
* Music Box notes
|
|
* The Phobekins
|
|
* Time shards
|
|
* Shop Upgrades
|
|
* Power Seals
|
|
|
|
## Where can I find items?
|
|
|
|
You can find items wherever items can be picked up in the original game. This includes:
|
|
* Shopkeeper dialog where the player originally gains movement items
|
|
* Quest Item pickups
|
|
* Music Box notes
|
|
* Phobekins
|
|
* Bosses
|
|
* Shop Upgrades, Money Wrench, and Figurine Purchases
|
|
* Power seals
|
|
* Mega Time Shards
|
|
|
|
## What are the item name groups?
|
|
|
|
When you attempt to hint for items in Archipelago you can use either the name for the specific item, or the name of a
|
|
group of items. Hinting for a group will choose a random item from the group that you do not currently have and hint
|
|
for it. The groups you can use for The Messenger are:
|
|
* Notes - This covers the music notes
|
|
* Keys - An alternative name for the music notes
|
|
* Crest - The Sun and Moon Crests
|
|
* Phobekin - Any of the Phobekins
|
|
* Phobe - An alternative name for the Phobekins
|
|
|
|
## Other changes
|
|
|
|
* The player can return to the Tower of Time HQ at any point by selecting the button from the options menu
|
|
* This can cause issues if used at specific times. Current known:
|
|
* During Boss fights
|
|
* After Courage Note collection (Corrupted Future chase)
|
|
* This is currently an expected action in logic. If you do need to teleport during this chase sequence, it
|
|
is recommended to quit to title and reload the save
|
|
* After reaching ninja village a teleport option is added to the menu to reach it quickly
|
|
* Toggle Windmill Shuriken button is added to option menu once the item is received
|
|
* The mod option menu will also have a hint item button, as well as a release and collect button that are all placed when
|
|
the player fulfills the necessary conditions.
|
|
* After running the game with the mod, a config file (APConfig.toml) will be generated in your game folder that can be
|
|
used to modify certain settings such as text size and color. This can also be used to specify a player name that can't
|
|
be entered in game.
|
|
|
|
## 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.
|
|
* Sometimes upon teleporting back to HQ, Ninja will run left and enter a different portal than the one entered by the
|
|
player. This may also cause a softlock.
|
|
* Text entry menus don't accept controller input
|
|
* Opening the shop chest in power seal hunt mode from the tower of time HQ will softlock the game.
