# Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins
|
|
|
|
## Where is the options page?
|
|
|
|
The [player options page for this game](../player-options) contains all the options you need to configure and export a
|
|
config file.
|
|
|
|
## What items and locations get shuffled?
|
|
|
|
Completing a level's exits results in a location check instead of automatically bringing you to the next level.
|
|
Where there are secret exits, the secret exit will be a separate location check. There is one exception, Hippo Zone,
|
|
that does not have a separate check for its secret exit. The Hippo Zone secret exit will still bring you to the Space
|
|
Zone.
|
|
|
|
Ringing the Midway Bells in each level that has one will register a location check. If the "Shuffle Midway Bells" option
|
|
is turned on, then ringing the bell will not grant the checkpoint, and instead you must obtain the Midway Bell item from
|
|
the item pool to gain the checkpoint for that level. Holding SELECT while loading into a level where you have unlocked
|
|
the Midway Bell checkpoint will start you at the beginning of the level.
|
|
|
|
Unlocking paths to new levels requires finding or receiving Zone Progression items. For example, receiving the first
|
|
"Turtle Zone Progression" will unlock the path from Turtle Zone 1 to Turtle Zone 2. Paths to secret levels are separate
|
|
items, so Turtle Zone Secret will open the path from Turtle Zone 2 to the Turtle Zone Secret Course.
|
|
|
|
Depending on settings, there may be some "Zone Progression x2" items that open two paths at once.
|
|
|
|
The path from Tree Zone 2 to the branch to Tree Zone 3 and 4 is one unlock, so both levels will open at this point.
|
|
|
|
Besides the zone progression unlocks, the following items are always shuffled:
|
|
- Mushroom: required to become Big Mario. If you are Fire or Bunny Mario and take damage, and have not obtained the
|
|
Mushroom, you will drop straight down to Small Mario.
|
|
- Fire Flower: required to become Fire Mario.
|
|
- Carrot: required to become Bunny Mario.
|
|
- Hippo Bubble: required to use the bubbles in Hippo Zone to fly.
|
|
- Water Physics: Mario will fall through water as though it is air until this is obtained.
|
|
- Space Physics: the Space Zone levels will have normal gravity until this is obtained.
|
|
- Super Star Duration Increase: you begin with a drastically lowered invincibility star duration, and these items will
|
|
increase it.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, the following items can be shuffled depending on your YAML options:
|
|
- The 6 Golden Coins: note that the game will still show you the coin being sent to the castle when defeating a boss
|
|
regardless of whether the coin is actually obtained in that location.
|
|
- Mario Coin Fragments: As an alternative to shuffling the 6 Golden Coins, you can shuffle Mario Coin Fragments,
|
|
a chosen percentage of which are needed to assemble the Mario Coin. You will start with the other 5 coins.
|
|
- Normal Mode/Easy Mode: you can start the game in Normal Mode with an Easy Mode "upgrade" in the item pool, or start in
|
|
Easy Mode with a Normal Mode "trap" item, swapping the difficulty.
|
|
- Auto Scroll: auto-scrolling levels can be set to not auto scroll until this trap item is received.
|
|
- Pipe Traversal: required to enter pipes. Can also be split into 4 items, each enabling pipe entry from a different
|
|
direction.
|
|
- Coins: if Coinsanity is enabled, coins will be shuffled into the item pool. A number of checks will be added to each
|
|
level for obtaining a specific number of coins within a single playthrough of the level.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## When the player receives an item, what happens?
|
|
|
|
There is no in-game indication that an item has been received. You will need to watch the client or web tracker to be
|
|
sure you're aware of the items you've received.

had enough memory values mapped out to make my work significantly easier.
