E4: Colossal Hole “Sun/Moon Area - Bottom Center” requires Golden Gloves?

[npcventures]

Hi, I’ve been playing through seed 8ecI5dMU2Xa (my 8th randomized playthrough, generated with a JAR file from February 11, 2022, so it’s possible you’ve fixed this already, although I can’t find logic for it in the code). I went through all the levels I can access and made notes on which key and music coin locations I can access and realized I was stuck. The spoilers suggest that I should be able to access: “E4 Silver : Golden Glove”. The problem is, The key for this is in “Sun/Moon Area - Bottom Center”…which I believe cannot be accessed without the Golden Glove (it requires throwing a Snow Bear; enemy-only barriers block the Spear-bot from being thrown). The level-by-level difficulty breakdown doesn’t offer any advice on how to work around this issue, leading me to suspect it may be a bug. I’m attaching the contents of the spoiler file below.
