Metroid Fusion Notes

Changes from vanilla

• Events, bosses, etc. can now be done out of order, like you'd expect is required for randomization.
• Missiles, beams, and suit upgrades have been split.
• Screw Attack doesn't allow single wall jumps. You'd never encounter this in vanilla without hacking, but it's a fun fact.
• Pickups have been added to multiple locations:
• • Saving the animals
• • Auxiliary Power Station
• • Sub-Zero Containment
• • Quarantine Bay
• • Northeast Atmospheric Stabilizer
• • Cooling the main boiler
• The goal is to acquire a number of Infant Metroids, defeat the SA-X on the Operations Deck, reach the Operations Room to set the self-destruct, and escape.
• • Reaching the Operations Room requires Hi-Jump or Space Jump.
• • Defeating the SA-X requires Charge Beam and Missiles.
• • The level 4 keycard is not required for the Operations Room.
• • The Main Deck music will change to its endgame version when these requirements are fulfilled.
• Room layouts have been changed to facilitate better randomization.
• The self destruct timer doesn't start until you enter the Docking Bay after fighting the SA-X.
• The western side of Sector 5 is always in its pre-Nightmare state, with changes to facilitate acquiring items and traversing to the Nightmare area.
• You can now enable/disable power ups in the pause menu.
• Rooms have been given names (credit goes to the Randovania team). Your current room name can be seen by pressing A on the map screen.
• You can warp to your starting location by pressing L on the map screen. Ingame progress since your last save will be lost.
• The client will sync received items and pickups with the server, allowing you to keep obtained items after game over/resetting/warping to start.
