Ocarina of Time Randomizer: Random Settings League changelog

2.0.0

Changes compared to the season 2 tournament. Up to date as of Dev-R commit e226a04 and plando-random-settings commit 3a4ca5f.

  • The inventory display on the file select screen has been reworked. Notable changes:
    • The Master Sword icon now indicates whether it's currently in your inventory (i.e. start as adult) rather than open Door of Time.
    • Ruto's Letter/Open Fountain is no longer shown.
    • Triforce Piece count is only displayed once the first piece has been collected. The in-game pause menu still shows the total even without any collected pieces.
  • Changes to hints:
    • Ganondorf's Light Arrows hint no longer logically requires the Stone of Agony or Mask of Truth. (#1183)
    • Deku Theater Skull Mask is now an always hint in the Tournament (Season 3) distribution, even with Complete Mask Quest, but no longer an always hint in the Tournament (Season 4) distribution, even without Complete Mask Quest.
    • Colossus GS Bean Patch (which previously had the misleading text “a spider buried in the wasteland holds”) is no longer a sometimes hint. It has been replaced with Wasteland GS (which has the very similar text “a spider in the wasteland holds”).
    • Barren hints are now more likely to be closer to 50% overworld and 50% dungeon.
    • The Tournament (Season 4) distribution now has 2 barren hints with 2 copies each, and the gossip stones in front of the Temple of Time no longer all give the same hint.
  • Minor changes to weights:
    • The geometric distribution now uses the same probability for the two highest numbers. So for example the probabilities for 11 MQ and 12 MQ are now both 2/8192 (previously 11 MQ was 2/8191 and 12 MQ was 1/8191), and 0 MQ is now 4096/8192 (exactly 1/2) rather than 4096/8191. This also affects starting hearts/items/songs/equipment.
    • The new weights file format removes some rounding imprecisions, which technically changes some of the weights slightly.
  • Minor changes to entrance randomizer:
    • In All Locations Reachable, there will now always be a spawn, owl drop, or warp song leading to the Graveyard Warp Pad Region, even if it's also reachable via the Shadow Temple exit.
    • Warp songs can no longer put you inside or outside of a grave.
    • If cows are shuffled, both entrances of Impa's house will now be in the same hint area even if a warp song leads to one of them. (#1217)
