Berserker's Multiworld Utilities for Bonta's Multiworld

This is a complete fork of Bonta's Multiworld V31, which assumes you already know how to setup and use that project. Instructions here are only for the additions. This is a drop-in replacement with everything from Bonta's Multiworld included. You can find a guide here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r7qs1-MK7YbFf2d-mEUeTy2wHykIf1ALG9pLtVvUbSw/edit#

Additions/Changes

Project

• Available in precompiled form for Windows 64Bit on Releases page.
• Compatible with Python 3.7 and 3.8. Potentially future versions as well.
• Update modules if they are too old, preventing a crash when trying to connect among potential other issues
• Autoinstall missing modules
• Allow newer versions of modules than specified, as they will usually not break compatibility
• Support for V31 extendedmsu
• Has support for binary patching to allow legal distribution of multiworld rom files
• Various performance improvements
• Various crash fixes

MultiMystery.py

• Allows you to generate a Multiworld with individual player mystery weights. Since weights can also be set to 100%, this also allows for individual settings for each player in a regular multiworld. Basis is a .yaml file that sets these weights. You can find an easy.yaml in this project folder to get started.
• Additional instructions are at the start of the file. Open with a text editor.
• Configuration options in the host.yaml file.

MultiServer.py

• Added a try/except to prevent malformed console commands from crashing the entire server
• Supports automatic port-forwarding, can be enabled in host.yaml
• improved !players command, mentioning how many players are currently connected of how many expected and who's missing
• /forfeitplayer Playername now works when the player is not currently connected
• various commands, like /senditem and /hint use "fuzzy text matching", no longer requiring you to enter a location, player name or item name perfectly
• Added /hint command on the server (use just /hint for help on command)
  can be used as /hint Playername Itemname
  All Itemnames can be found in Items.py starting at line 25
  example:
  /hint Berserker Progressive Sword
  Notice (Team #1): [Hint]: Berserker's Progressive Sword can be found in Hype Cave - Top in ahhdurr's World
  Notice (Team #1): [Hint]: Berserker's Progressive Sword can be found in Blind's Hideout - Far Right in Schulzer's World
  Notice (Team #1): [Hint]: Berserker's Progressive Sword can be found in Palace of Darkness - Map Chest in Thorus's World
  Notice (Team #1): [Hint]: Berserker's Progressive Sword can be found in Ganons Tower - Map Chest in Will's World
• A player-side hint command "!hint" also exists. It needs to be turned on in the host.yaml and is based on points.

Mystery.py

• Defaults to generating a non-race ROM (Bonta's only makes race ROMs at this time) If a race ROM is desired, pass --create-race as argument to it
• When an error is generated due to a broken .yaml file, it now mentions in the error trace which file, line and character is the culprit
• Option for progressive items, allowing you to turn them off (see easy.yaml for more info)
• Rom-Option for extendedmsu (see easy.yaml for more info)
• Option for "timer"
• Supports new Meta-Mystery mode. Read meta.yaml for details.
• Added dungeonssimple and dungeonsfull ER modes

MultiClient.py

• Awaits a Qusb2snes connection when started, latching on when available
• Terminal improvements
• Running it with a patch file will patch out the multiworld rom and then automatically connect to the host that created the multiworld
• Cheating is now controlled by the server and can be disabled through host.yaml
