10 months ago A few things:
- The money wrench location becomes available when you purchase all of the items in The Shop (logic takes this into account)
- The way the money wrench works in vanilla is that it uses an actual flag to determine if you can enter the sink or not; the money wrench isn't actually an item in game. That's added for the rando. Because of this, I can prevent the player from entering the sink too early, but I can't force it open earlier.
- The money thing I do agree is super frustrating. I've attempted to refund the money to the player with no success so far, but leaving this open with the hopes that I can figure out some way to refund it at some point.

What happened?
In a recent multiworld I played, an important item was hinted on one of the figurine shop checks, which I believed needed the money wrench item to acquire. After receiving it some time later, I was confused that I was still unable to unclog the money sink and access the shop, and came to the frustrating realisation that I needed to spend all 6000 of my time shards to do the vanilla money wrench check first. After doing so I was able to access the figurine shop as normal.
If the money wrench check is something that can be done early on in a seed, then that's my fault for not realising that... even so, I think it would be great if the requirement to spend literally every time shard you have could be removed.
I was playing on version 0.11.9 of the Archipelago mod.
What were the expected results?
The player should be able to access the figurine shop with the money wrench item, regardless of whether the original money wrench location has been checked.
Is this reproducible?
