# lingo2-archipelago Releases

## v8.0.1 - 2025-11-05

- Fixed issue where The Unkempt - COLOR would disappear when it became logical
  to solve it. It is now always present, and does not logically require cyan
  doors or the orange control center door.
- Fixed issue where you would be expected to solve The Owl - COLOR while it is
  invisible. It is now considered a cyan door.

Compatability notes:

- This client should overall be compatible with worlds generated on v8.0.0. The
  tracker will show the new logic for The Unkempt - COLOR, which reflects when
  it is solvable in game, but may place it in an earlier sphere than it was in
  the original generation. Conversely, The Owl - COLOR is now more restricted in
  the new logic, so you may end up in a situation where you are required to
  solve it but the tracker does not realize it is in logic. However, the panel
  is simply invisible when you don't have cyan doors, meaning it is easy to
  solve it early if necessary.

## v8.0.0 - 2025-11-02

- ~50 new locations were added, such that almost every panel in the game is now
  part of either a location or a connection. Some existing locations were also
  modified or removed to make this cleaner. The only panels that are not part of
  any location or connection are the ones in rooms that you are explicitly not
  supposed to solve (e.g. the letter rooms in Daedalus where you are only
  supposed to solve the panels indicated by the ceiling).
- Multiworld state is now saved in a way that should increase compatibility when
  playing on a client that is a different version than the apworld that
  generated the world, going forward. Complete compatibility is not guaranteed,
  but this fixes some of the glaring issues. Also note that this client is _not_
  compatible with worlds generated on v7.x.x.
- Hinted locations are now prioritized in the tracker, and are displayed in a
  different color.
- Locations can now be ignored in the tracker, which removes them from the
  overlay and puts them at the bottom of the tab in the text client.
- Fixed the Yellow Ending door not opening properly when gallery paintings are
  shuffled.
- The trigger for the gallery painting in The Unyielding is now smaller, so that
  it matches the logical requirement.
- The DIRECTION panels near the Castle in Daedalus are now moved when the roof
  access stairs are present, so that you don't lose access to them.

## v7.2.0 - 2025-10-25

- Doors that rely on keyholders or the control center color panel are now
  "latched". This means they will not close once they've been opened. Because of
  this, the worldports near these doors are now eligible for randomization in
  worldport shuffle.
- Icarus is now optionally randomizable.
- The requirements for accessing White Ending are now customizable. You can
  choose to require a number of endings as well as a number of masteries.
- The "Return To" trigger in The Plaza is now outside of the turtle.
- Fixed a logic error regarding a couple of specific doors in vanilla doors
  mode.
- Fixed a bug where unlocks would not persist if you were playing with all
  letters pre-unlocked and cyan doors on "any double letter".
- Fixed a bug where the client would fail to connect properly when launched from
  a URL if the player name had spaces in it.

## v7.1.0 - 2025-10-07

- Added a "Get Path" button to the locations tracker. This shows you the path
  you're currently expected to be able to take in order to reach that
  location/worldport/goal.
- Worldport names in the spoiler log have been changed to be more descriptive.
- Jumping into The Graveyard from The Sun Temple is now in logic.
- Solving the FLIP panels above the Liberated and Literate entrances by looking
  up is now in logic.
- Renamed some locations so that they're shorter.
- Fixed bug where White Ending would kick the player out of Archipelago.
- Fixed bug where the minimap would be completely white when a texture pack is
  enabled.
- Generation failures while shuffling worldports should be significantly less
  common.

## v7.0.1 - 2025-10-01

- Fixed logic error regarding the Plaza Entrance in The Repetitive. Going from
  The Plaza to The Repetitive does not require the door to be open in vanilla
  doors, but both directions require the door item when doors are shuffled.
- Fixed Worldports tracker tab getting messed up after disconnecting and
  reconnecting to multiworld.
- Improved error messages when failing to connect. The game now also shows you
  when your connection has dropped.

## v7.0.0 - 2025-09-30

- Major update! First and foremost: the client and apworld are no longer
  separate! There is only an apworld now, which you install into your
  Archipelago custom worlds folder as per normal. In order to play a randomized
  world, you open the Archipelago Launcher and click Lingo 2 Client. The first
  time you do this, it will ask you for the location of your Lingo2.exe, which
  you can find by right clicking on the game in Steam and clicking Browse Local
  Files.
- **Built-in tracker**: The in-game text client has a new tab called "Locations"
  which lists the currently accessible locations similar to how Universal
  Tracker does it. There is also an optional overlay you can enable in the
  settings, which shows you some of your accessible locations on screen while
  you're playing. If you're playing with vanilla letters, the tracker won't show
  you locations that are solvable with letters until you collect the actual
  letters, in order to help direct you better. More features will be coming to
  the tracker in the future!
- **Worldport shuffle**: The first part of entrance randomization is here!
  Enabling this shuffles the destinations of the worldports, which are the
  loading zones you walk into in order to change maps. Some restrictions apply,
  which are noted in the option description. The tracker will show a list of
  worldports you haven't entered yet, and will also not show you what lies
  beyond a worldport until you've entered it. There is also a tab in the
  textclient showing you the mapping between worldports you've already entered.
- **Minimap**: There is an option in the settings to show a minimap in the
  corner of the screen. This shows an overhead view of the map you're on, and
  where you are in it. More features will be coming to the minimap in the
  future!
- Fixed the gate outside the Daedalus entrance in The Great not opening when
  control center colors are shuffled.

## Legacy Client v6.7 - 2025-09-19

- Added a compass overlay. This makes it clearer which direction corresponds to
  which compass direction, which is useful since many location/item names
  reference compass directions. It can be enabled in the settings screen on the
  pause menu.
- Compatability update for the changes in v6.6 of the apworld.

## Legacy Apworld v6.6 - 2025-09-19

- Added options that make the requirements for Purple Ending and Cyan Ending
  stricter. With the strict options on, players are required to have all purple
  (level 1) letters in order to get Purple Ending, and all cyan (level 2)
  letters to get Cyan Ending. These options are on by default.
- Renamed several items and locations, mostly regarding changing relative
  directions (left, right, etc) to compass directions. The colored SMILE panels
  in Daedalus now have clearer names too.
- Fixed some minor logic errors.

## Legacy Client v5.6 - 2025-09-17

- Letter locations will no longer reappear after being collected.
- This also prevents a potential scenario in which it is impossible to access
  the location "The Congruent - Obverse Yellow Puzzles" when door shuffle is
  disabled.

## Legacy Apworld v4.3 - 2025-09-13

- Added a location for the anti-collectable in The Repetitive.
- Added trap items. These remove letters from your keyboard until you use the
  Key Return in The Entry, similar to the anti-collectable in The Repetitive.
  This can be controlled using the `trap_percentage` option, which defaults to
  zero.
- Fixed crash on load when using Python 3.11.
