Spyro: A Hero's Tail: v2.1.0

v2.1.0: Various Misc. Things

Intended for use with game mod version 14 (see attachments).

v2.1.0 contains a handful of new settings, tweaks, and fixes without any particular theming. It's mostly stuff that came up during or shortly after development of v2.0.0 that were either low priority or I otherwise didn't manage to get into an update until now.

⚠ Even if you downloaded the v2.1.0 prerelease, please update your .apworld file with the version here. A logic adjustment and some minor client bugfixes were added to this full version of v2.1.0 that you will miss out on if you don't install the new .apworld below. The game mod is unchanged and can be ignore if you already have version 14.0 of it. ⚠

Additions/Expansions

• New automatic setting to boss_lair_forcing which forces all goal boss to have collectively the highest cost(s).
• Expanded location groups to include per-level and per-realm groups, as well as adding a "Starter Checks" group.
• movement_randomization now allows for individual randomization of each ability, instead of being all or nothing.
• Renamed starting_breath -> starting_breaths to reflect it now allowing for starting with multiple breaths. Can still start with none or with a random breath, if the list is left empty.
  • Random breath does not require auto_corrections to be set to 'fix'. starting_realms was adjusted to be similar in not requiring auto_corrections anymore to get a random realm chosen.

Fixes

• Fixed vanilla_minigame_rewards not working for turret minigames.
• Fixed a missing glide requirement in Dragonfly Falls connecting the end of the level back to the start.
• Improved error handling in /check_goal command.

Tweaks

• Removed glide requirement from the locked chest in the entry area of Dragonfly Falls, as it can be reached from below with just Double Jump quite easily. Similarly adjusted the gem access rule for the Crocovile next to it.
• "Generics" filler item selection process is improved to be more uniform. Each one will be picked once before any are doubled up, and similar as more are picked.
