Now with randomized stores!

Stores are now randomized! There is a limit to the strength of equipment in Chapters 1-4, and a portion of Chapter 5, but after that, anything goes!

I also made monster resistance randomization optional, as well as a significant bug fix with treasures. Enjoy! :)

A couple of bug fixes

I figured out a few bug fixes that makes the enemy patterns and treasure randomization quite a bit more stable. I'm not going to say it's perfect yet, however...

Randomized Treasures and Monster Stats/Attacks

The title says all. But I must caution that there may be un-winnable seeds and cases where the ROM crashes because of monsters changing expressions that shouldn't be able to. Please let me know if that's the case.

Randomized boss fights and equipment use!

I made two new randomizations for you, both optional.

First, I added a randomization of boss fights. The main boss will still be there, but who joins that boss may be different from what you're used to!

Second, I added a randomization of who can equip what item. The hero is the slight exception; he still can equip all Zenithian equipment so you can get through the tower.

I also made a couple small bug fixes; you can take a look at those in the release notes. Enjoy! :)

The customary bug fix release...

I fixed a few things that made the naming algorithm not go the way I was thinking. I also fixed the XP multiplying algorithm. Please see the commit notes for details.

Custom hero names!

Don't like Ragnar as a name? Well now you can make it whatever you want it to be! You also can change... say... Healie's name too!

I recommend deleting lastFile4.txt to reset the saved data before continuing, because the data in there is different from before.

Bug fixes

There are a couple of bug fixes with this release. Please see the commit notes for details.

Lots of new features!

I added a whole bunch of new stuff... like the randomization of heroes and monsters... gold and experience rewards as well... but also a couple of hacks, such as speeding up battles, awarding experience points during Alena's tournament, and so forth.

Solo Hero Challenge released!

There are a couple surprises with the Solo Hero challenge... I think you'll find it quite fun though! You also can adjust the experience gain of the monsters to make it a bit easier for you. Enjoy! :)
