MinitArchipelago randomizer mod

Compatibility notes

• Use the Steam Windows edition and APWorld release 0.6.12 with Archipelago 0.6.7 or later. Its embedded manifest still reports 0.6.11; identify the download by the actual release tag.
• Open Minit Client from Archipelago, connect to the correct slot, then use /patch. Select the original data.win when asked. The client creates a separate patched file and launches the game with it.
• Keep the original game files and back up saves. A separate copy of the game folder is suggested when installation-folder permissions prevent patching. The itch.io edition is explicitly unsupported.
• Remote items arrive after a respawn rather than immediately during the current minute. The old home-base AP sync pickup described in the packaged overview was removed in release 0.6.3; do not search for it.
• For an accessible first run, enable Early Sword, disable entrance shuffle, obscure routes and damage boosts, and set Darkrooms to Off. The default Minor setting still permits some navigation without a flashlight.
• DeathLink is optional. Source notes record pause and respawn edge cases; leaving it off is the conservative first-run choice. Those notes are not an independently reproduced current defect report.
• Version 0.6.12 repairs missing rules on randomized entrances, particularly water routes. Use the current world rather than an older entrance-randomizer setup.
• The reviewed patcher launches Windows executables. Steam having native Linux and macOS versions does not establish support for this mod on those builds.
