Almost all of the events have been eradicated, which significantly improves both generation speed and playthrough calculation.
Previously, checking for access to a location involved checking for access to each panel in the location, as well as recursively checking for access to any panels required by those panels. This potentially performed the same check multiple times. The access requirements for locations are now calculated and flattened in generate_early, so that the access function can directly check for the required rooms, doors, and colors.
These flattened access requirements are also used for Entrance checking, and register_indirect_condition is used to make sure that can_reach(Region) is safe to use.
The Mastery and Level 2 rules now just run a bunch of access rules and count the number of them that succeed, instead of relying on event items.
Finally: the Level 2 panel hunt is now enabled even when Level 2 is not the victory condition, as I feel that generation is fast enough now for that to be acceptable.
- Removes the Pokémon Client, adding support for Red and Blue to the Bizhawk Client.
- Adds `/bank` commands that mirror SDV's, allowing transferring money into and out of the EnergyLink storage.
- Adds a fix to the base patch so that the progressive card key counter will not increment beyond 10, which would lead to receiving glitch items. This value is checked against and verified that it is not > 10 as part of crash detection by the client, to prevent erroneous location checks when the game crashes, so this is relevant to the new client (although shouldn't happen unless you're using !getitem, or putting progressive card keys as item link replacement items)
More speed optimizations for The Messenger. Moves Figurines into their own region, so their complicated access rule only needs to be calculated once when doing a sweep. Removes a redundant loop for shop locations by just directly assigning the access rule in the class instead of retroactively. Reduces slot_data to only information that can't be derived, and removes some additional extraneous data. Removes some unused sets and lists. Removes a redundant event location, and increments the required_client_version to prevent clients that don't expect the new slot_data. Drops data version since it's going away soon anyways, to remove conflicts.
This allows multiple client/connector pairs to run at the same time. It also includes a few other miscellaneous small changes that accumulated as I went. They can be split if desired
- Whatever the `client_socket:send` line (~440) was doing with that missing operator, it's no longer doing. Don't ask me how it was working before. Lua is witchcraft.
- Removed the `settimeout(2)` which causes the infamous emulator freeze (and replaced it with a `settimeout(0)` when the server socket is created). It appears to be unnecessary to set a timeout for discovering a client. Maybe at some point in time it was useful to keep the success rate for connecting high, but it seems to not be a problem if the timeout is 0 instead.
- Also updated the Emerald setup to remove mention of the freezing.
- Connector script now picks the first port that's not in use in a range of 5 ports.
- To summarize why I was previously under the impression that multiple running scripts would not detect when a port was in use:
1. Calling `socket.bind` in the existing script will first create an ipv6 socket.
2. A second concurrent script trying to bind to the same port would I think fail to create an ipv6 socket but then succeed in creating an ipv4 socket on the same port.
3. That second socket could never communicate with a client; extra clients would just bounce off the first script.
4. The third concurrent script will then fail on both and actually give an `address already in use` error.
- I'm not _really_ sure what's going on there. But forcing one or the other by calling `socket.tcp4()` or `socket.tcp6()` means that only one script will believe it has the port while any others will give `address already in use` as you'd expect.
- As a side note, our `socket.lua` is much wonkier than I had previously thought. I understand some parts were added for LADX and when BizHawk 2.9 came out, but as far back as the file's history in this repo, it has provided a strange, modified interface as compared to the file it was originally derived from, to no benefit as far as I can tell.
- The connector script closes `server` once it finds a client and opens a new one if the connection drops. I'm not sure this ultimately has an effect, but it seems more proper.
- If the connector script's main function returns because of some error or refusal to proceed, the script no longer tries to resume the coroutine it was part of, which would flood the log with irrelevant errors.
- Creating `SyncError`s in `guarded_read` and `guarded_write` would raise its own error because the wrong variable was being used in its message.
- A call to `_bizhawk.connect` can take a while as the client tries the possible ports. There's a modification that will wait on either the `connect` or the exit event. And if the exit event fires while still looking for a connector script, this cancels the `connect` so the window can close.
- Related: It takes 2-3 seconds for a call to `asyncio.open_connection` to come back with any sort of response on my machine, which can be significant now that we're trying multiple ports in sequence. I guess it could fire off 5 tasks at once. Might cause some weirdness if there exist multiple scripts and multiple clients looking for each other at the same time.
- Also related: The first time a client attempts to connect to a script, they accept each other and start communicating as expected. The second client to try that port seems to believe it connects and will then time out on the first message. And then all subsequent attempts to connect to that port by any client will be refused (as expected) until the script shuts down or restarts. I haven't been able to explain this behavior. It adds more time to a client's search for a script, but doesn't ultimately cause problems.

- Lost Colony - Animal 9 (Hard Logic) now requires either `Eggman - Jet Engine` or `Eggman - Large Cannon`
Modifies various access rules in the lufia2ac world with the aim of making them evaluate quicker.
Instead of having to determine the reachability of another location, they now only have to count items in state, which is faster.
(Also made it reuse the identical lambda for multiple locations, which might save a smidgen of memory.)
In a lot of cases, Factorio would write data to file first, then attach that file into zip. It now directly attaches the data to the zip and encapsulation was used to allow earlier GC in places (rendered templates especially).

- Entrance randomizer no longer grows with multiworld
- Improved ER success rate again by prioritizing Temple of Time even more
- Prefill is faster, has slightly reduced failure rate when map/compass are in dungeon but previous items in any_dungeon (which consumed all available locations), no longer removes items from the main itempool; itemlinked prefill items removed to accomodate improvements
- Now triggers only one recache after `generate_basic` instead of one per oot world
- Avoids recaches during `create_regions`
- All ER temp entrances have unique names (so the entrance cache does not break)
this allows skipping multiple simplifications of the same object, e.g. item_rules
also update the logic simplification tests to be a proper unittest.TestCase
* add missing groups
* remove set comprehensions
* fix boss essence
* reorganized them
* combine boss essence on creation instead of update
* rename to match option names
* Add missing groups
* add PoP totem
