Yeah if converting to Hook is at all possible we'd appreciate at least an attempt at it.

EDIT: Oh sweet, looks like you already did it, great! I'm guessing it now runs on all rando seeds, since I'm not seeing any additional qualifiers to when it spawns. Before it spawned only in Overworld Entrance Shuffle, and the impetus for this change was preventing desert spawn softlocks right?

Entrance shuffle and gerudo card shuffle, it was part opening up the logic, part lowering no logic impossible starts and part QoL, but the big impetus for this change is that without her, you can pass the gate backwards as adult but only if you do NOT have a g-card, as you can get caught through the gate to get sent to jail on the other side.

Having the extra guard always exist just prevents there from being any cases where something becomes impossible because you found gerudo card, which is also the reasoning behind have guards offer to throw you in jail.

Yeah I think I'm in favor of the other guard just always being there. Not sure why it was ever so strictly locked down to specific settings in hindsight. Once 9.0.2 is out I'll download this and see if I can hit any edge cases or something.

This also helps in Shuffle Climb so logic is consistently "you can open gate from GF with card & climb, or you can open gate from HW with just card"

Works for me! Like I said I'll want to playtest and make sure I can't hit any edge cases but it looks good from a code perspective.

@leggettc18 when do you expect to have a chance to playtest? would it be better to have someone else look over this PR?

I'm leaning toward merging this and having testing later, as it's already much more open than it was before, so if there are any edge cases, they will be much fewer and farther between as it is. However, are there generator logic considerations that need to be handled?

I'll double check the logic in #5338
