Bizhawk's "hard reset" option fills RAM with 0x55s. This causes game completion to be erroneously flagged, and likely many erroneous location checks with it. This fix checks for 0x55 and will not proceed to process anything if present.
FFMQR by @wildham0
Uses an API created by wildham for Map Shuffle, Crest Shuffle and Battlefield Reward Shuffle, using a similar method of obtaining data from an external website to Super Metroid's Varia Preset option.
Generates a .apmq file which the user must bring to the FFMQR website https://www.ffmqrando.net/Archipelago to patch their rom. It is not an actual patch file but contains item placement and options data for the FFMQR website to generate a patched rom with for AP.
Some of the AP options may seem unusual, using Choice instead of Range where it may seem more appropriate, but these are options that are passed to FFMQR and I can only be as flexible as it is.
@wildham0 deserves the bulk of the credit for not only creating FFMQR in the first place but all the ASM work on the rom needed to make this possible, work on FFMQR to allow patching with the .apmq files, and creating the API that meant I did not have to recreate his map shuffle from scratch.
