Two things have been happening.
**Incorrect Events**
Spoiler logs containing events that just straight up have an incorrect name and shouldn't be there. E.g. "Symmetry Island Yellow 3 solved - Monastery Laser Activation" when playing Laser Shuffle where this event should not exist, because Laser Activations are governed by the Laser items.
Now to be clear - There are no logic issues with it. The event will be in the spoiler log, but it won't actually be used in the way that its name suggests.
Basically, every panel in the game has exactly one event name. If the panel is referenced by another panel, it will reference the event instead. So, the Symmetry Laser Panel location will reference Symmetry Island Yellow 3, and an event is created for Symmetry Island Yellow 3. The only problem is the **name**: The canonical name for the event is related to "Symmetry Island Yellow 3" is "Monastery Laser Activation", because that's another thing that panel does sometimes.
From now on, event names are tied to both the panel referencing and the panel being referenced. Only once the referincing panel actually references the dependent panel (during the dependency reduction process in generate_early), is the event actually created.
This also removes some spoiler log clutter where unused events were just in the location list.
**Item classifications**
When playing shuffle_doors, there are a lot of doors in the game that are logically useless depending on settings. When that happens, they should get downgraded from progression to useful. The previous system for this was jank and terrible. Now there is a better system for it, and many items have been added to it. :)
* Refactor postgame code to be more readable
* Change all references to options to strings
* oops
* Fix some outdated code related to yaml-disabled EPs
* Small fixes to short/longbox stuff (thanks Medic)
* comment
* fix duplicate
* Removed triplicate lmfao
* Better comment
* added another 'unfun' postgame consideration
* comment
* more option strings
* oops
* Remove an unnecessary comparison
* another string missed
* Another was missed
* This would create a really bad merge error
Changes:
* Hints should feel a lot less same-y now ("Priority hints" are no longer always hints in disguise)
* Keep Hedge Mazes 1-3 and Pressure Plates 1-3 are added as locations in all settings
* Desert Final Room Hexagonal & Desert Final Room Bent 3 are added as locations
* Entries in exclude_locations that are referring to panels are now sent through slot data. This means they can be pre-skipped on the client side.
Fixes:
* Logic error in the Stoneworks that led to more restrictive seeds than necessary
* Logic error for Theater Flowers EP that led to more restrictive seeds than necessary
* Fixed crash in plando when "item" is a dict with weights
* Spoiler log locations were in random order per region, now they are consistent
* Make all Keep Pressure Plates logically required for the Laser Panel
* Added more Tutorial checks
* Added the remaining two Shipwreck Boat EPs to the exclude list for normal
* Improved itempool filling system, added warning if usefuls had to be eaten
* Moved creation of said warning string to utils
* Fixed logic bug causing broken seeds on Mountain Floor 2
* Hints system change
* Expert Logic Fix
* Fixed typo
* Better wording
* Added missing games to junk hints
* Made sure Entrance names are unique
* Fixed missing Obelisk Side
* Disable Non Randomized + EP Shuffle fix
* Fixed disable_non_randomized precompleted EPs being 'disabled' instead of 'precompleted'
* Fixed if/elif error
* Tutorial Gate Open local symbol item becomes local_early_item in expert instead
* Bump required client version. There is a beta client that sends 0.3.9.
* Removed print statement, oops
* Fixed itempool manipulation in pre_fill
* Replaced string concats with fstrings
* Improved make_warning_string function signature

* Improved performance on removing multiple items from multiworld itempool
* Comment
* Fixed errors with the code
* Made removal from itempool not fail unit test for multiple references
* Moved all item creation to create_items, got rid of itempool modifying system
* Colored Squares is no longer a good item, that's outdated
* Removed double if
* React to from_pool: false by removing a junk item
* Fixed warning if only Fnc Brain was removed
* Make use of string truthiness instead
* Made reading of plandoed items safer

## New Features:
- EP Shuffle (Individual or Obelisk Sides, with varying difficulty levels)
- Ability to play without Puzzle Randomization (I.e. vanilla + AP layer)
- Pet the Dog to get a Puzzle Skip :) (No, really.)
## Changes:
- Starting inventory behavior improved (Consider starting items like doors and lasers logically even if they aren't part of the mode)
- Audio Log hint system improved (On low hint counts, you will no longer get the same locations hinted every time, i.e. always hints are shuffled)
## Fixes:
- Many fixes to symbol requirements
- Fixes to "shuffle_postgame" (What checks are evaluated as "postgame" in specific modes)
- Logically irrelevant doors are now "useful" instead of "progression"
New options:
Shuffle Doors: Many doors in the game will open on their own upon receiving an item ("key").
Variant - Shuffle Door/Control Panels: Many panels in the game that open doors or control devices in the world will be off until receiving their respective item ("key").
Shuffle Lasers: Lasers no longer activate by solving the laser panel, instead you will get an item that activates the laser.
Shuffle Symbols: Now that there is something else to shuffle (doors / door panels), you can turn off Symbol Rando.
Shuffle Postgame (replaces "Shuffle Hard"): The randomizer will now determine by your settings which panels are in the "postgame" - Meaning they can only be accessed after you can complete your win condition anyway.
New option: "Early Secret Area" (Opens a door to the Challenge Area from the start of the game)
New option: Victory Conditions "Mountaintop Box Short" and "Mountaintop Box Long"
New options: Number of Lasers of Mountain, Number of Lasers for Challenge
New option & item: Add some number of "Puzzle Skips", which let you skip one puzzle in the game
Many logic fixes
